Gayloch the blood elf

I just had a five minute conversation about work with gayloch, formerlly know as (e:terry), after which he told me he didn't hear me so much because he was too busy. Ya, too busy playing warcraft to interact with the people around him. The whole time he pretended to hear me by nodding and stuff until I asked a comprehension question which through him off.

Its not like other video games he used to play where he could pause. It is a totally consuming experience that transforms (e:Terry) into gayloch for like up to 12 hours at a time. What's worse is that if we do force him to stop he friends in the game get mad or worse yet, his family in las vegas who all play with him.

Should I have seen this coming. Well maybe with all the fantasy books and stuff, I just never thought it would be so totally consuming being a blood elf in world of war craft. Its like his total everything. I would rather that he be a drag queen. At least there would be more downtime.

He even has the dorktastic headgear now so that he can totally immerse himself in the experience. He thinks he is the only one that can hear the other dorks talking.

I have a feeling this is what he is going to look like just before (e:matthew) murders him someday.

Illusions Night Club

On a non-related note, the club that was the icon, and then club-e and then something else is now becoming illusions nightclub. I wish them the best because I would love a new place to dance.

Sadly, if the quality of the club can at all be measured by the quality of the website , it is going to close before it opens. They really need to invest in a web developer or strip the site down to something more basic. It looks like some failed web design 101 project.

I had to disable flash to even get in because it kept insisting I don't have flash player although I do. You can skip the craptastic flash animation by skipping to this stupidly named page

image

God, after careful inspection the code is even worse then the design. scripts tags with no type, javascript in the head, not xhtml or even close table design, blank description and title meta tags.... black text on dark blue

If its so under construction I would keep it password protected because otherwise it just gives such a bad image.

At the gym with Phil

I never thought i would be at the gym working out next to Phil. In high school we were in gym together and were both not very sporty. Apparently, adulthood has changed us. Weird. I think he was the only other person at the gym tonight.

Bebo and stealing music

First off, I am so damn tired from working out. Between yesterday with James, then buying the weights last night, then working out this morning and then going to the gym tonight - I am seriously tuckered out.

This evening, I was busy stealing Dj Fresh music from bebo after I saw Bad Company was playing at Circa this friday in Toronto

His music is pretty awesome if you like that style, which I do Unfortunately, he is not with them anymore.

I am fascinated with the amount of information people media sites make available to the flash debug log.

It makes downloading the music a snap. Then a little ffmpeg flv to mp3 conversion and I have a new playlist. Way faster then trying to limewire it.

Anyhow, I also found this ultra dramatic buffalo, ny video. Thought someone might enjoy it.



While I was tailing the flash debug log, I noticed that I left debugging of the flash storage for the restore backup button in the journal on, which slows typing down a bit in a big journal. I will fix that for the new site, which I promise is coming out soon.

Here is a screen capture of it, although you can't tell much about new functionality from the screen capture.

Heavy whipping cream 50 x 32


I knew that heavy whipping cream had a lot of calories but yesterday
evening I read the nutrition facts. 50 calories per serving sounded
reasonable till you realize that it has 32 servings per container.
Holy crap.

This explains ice cream's calorie count. The last time I went to
nutritionist a while back they suggested adding some igh calorie
snacks like ice cream to my diet.

Working out with James

I went to the gym with (e:james) today. It was fun to go with someone who seems really into it. I tried the free weights room for the first time. For some reason I just hadn't done it before. I feel like I would have no problem doing it by myself next time. Using the free weights feels different because you get more movement than the exact up/down, left/right motion that you get with the machines. I think I am going to buy some additional ones.

I wish Allentown Atheletix had the same stomach twist machine that they had at the BAC downtown. I am determined to have a ripped stomach for summer. If only I had some more danicnig opportunities I could make it happen faster.

I want to gain 10 more pounds so bad. It feels liek I am always saying that. I am hoping the addition of free weights and more food will help. This morning I made my protein smoothy with left over heavy whipping cream from last nights dessert (e:paul,47360) instead of milk for extra calories. It tasted so freakin good but then I was in a food coma for like an hour.

Update: I found someone with exactly the body I want, one that I think is attainable for my body type.

Human and Tortoise Strawberry Treats

Today, organic strawberries were on sale for $2.50/quart. They were pretty yummy.

I bought organic cream, raspberries and ghirardelli chocolate to go with it.

I whipped the cream with out new beaters, it felt like cheating because I have been using the old fashioned crank ones for years, till (e:lilho) insisted we get the electric ones during her visit. I added a little vanilla nd sugar. Then I sliced the berries and rubbed them in a little organic, evaporated cane sugar and hand grated the chocolate over the top.

image

Basra (e:paul,32584) got a treat out of it too. He loves the strawberry tops.

image

Speaking of treats for Basra, he got a new UV lamp today and also discovered humping things. I think its like a whole new world for him.

Possessed by the devil

I cut my beard and then tried to take a pic of my new facial hair.
Each pic came out crappy because of low light. The iPhone is pretty
terrible with low light conditions. This one was especially scary
because it only blurred my eyes.

Organic grass fed beef sirloin

How is the coop going to compete with this? Wegmans now has organic grass fed beef at such a great price, and it looks really good too.

These two cost $7.60. Considering that each one is enough beef for a
whole meal, that is a pretty good deal.

It's also super tender.
