Stuff

Been busy lately making a new site for Telescum, one that will pull telecommunications industry stories from rss feeds into a database automatically tagging them as it goes. It’ll work on a cron so I don’t have to touch it. Because I was to busy/lazy to keep updating the current site I’d rather have one that updates itself. Should be good.

I can scratch one of the games off my to get list. Skinny kindly got hold of Pure, the quad racing game. Is pretty mean. Makes me want to get a quad even more. I’m currently trying to save up $5-6k for a Yamaha YFZ450. Should be fun. Want to get a matching covered and alarmed trailer for my van to keep it in too lol.

Unfortunately I want to buy a guitar now, but I think I’ll just wait until after I get the quad. I been jamming with Nick a bit, he’s got a guitar and I’ve got drums but we swap most of the time. He’s pretty mean on the drums. Cranks out some wicked blast beats. I’m… below average on guitar. But I’m trying. I want to downtune it to play some real brutal chords, but I don’t think it is the right kind of guitar. I borrowed it the other day when I got off nightshift and played all day at full volume, was mean.

Been helping Nick a bit with his truck as well. He bought another Hilux. Already got a Van and a V8 Hilux (the project 88), and now he got another Hilux (for free) and is going to do that up (thats what we went to get the engine for). He’s redoing the rusty panels and stuff in it. Pretty much doing a panelbeaters job, reckons it would be about $2000 work from a professional. Brochanics all the way.

I think lately I’ve been a bit extreme on the attacking religion front. Each to their own and everyone is free to take up a religion of their choice (or not) as per the human rights. So, sorry if I offended anyone.

Also had to say goodbye to a friend today :( . Shit was just fucked up between us. Sad that I won’t see them again, but thats the way the cookie crumbles.

Finally getting stuff done on my van. Put some switches in to do (some dodgey) stuff. Me and Nick are going to get the sounds put in on Sunday. And I got new mags yesterday. 17″ deep dish. Going to get some tyres for them today. Pretty good deal. $800 for the mags, and it’s going to be $720 to get tyres (235/45 Kingstars).

Also got me a double kick for my drum kit. Tried it out last night, is pretty mean. Just gotta get some practice in now.
