  1. I search on PirateBay, seems like a good site. Find the torrent. Got a bunch of seeds, got a couple leechers or whatever they're called. Click on it, Azureus opens up. Save it to the desktop or whatever folder I want the file(s) in. Minute or two later the thing starts downloading. Downloading slowly. I had one file go at 150kb/s for a minute or two, then went down to 80kb/s or so. If I were to take an average of all speeds I've seen since I started using this I'd imagine that it would be around 30kb/s. Sometimes around 45kb/s, sometimes around 17kb/s, sometimes around 12kb/s. No other internet programs running, only downloading one file at a time. The only fast downloads I see are when I 'right click save as' a file from a webpage ... if no one else is downloading it or whatever I'll see ~ 180kb/s, which isn't fast compared to some of you guys but it's the fastest I've been getting unfortunately.

    Welcome to the IHoP

    Should able to file my suit tomorrow. With my luck the investigation will take a few weeks and the court date will be in a few months. They could just as easily suspend the prick without pay for a few days and toss me some cash, and it would all go away for them. Oh well, it's the government - I'm going to try and fudge them over any way I can. Wishfull thinking = get money, buy a Volvo. Reality = won't make it to court, small out of court settlement, enough to put in the bank and save for a rainy day. Did I mention that the teachers are on strike right now? Multi billion dollar company here goes on strike for three months, Telus (2nd largest phone/ISP company in Canada) still on strike with a tenative agreement, port workers/truckers in Vancouver lost the country billions of $ when they were on strike. It's a never ending cycle ... every three or four years when the contracts expire, look out. This tribulus terrestris research is going to be great but will require some travel. scholar.google.com is awesome, but it's weird trying to reference articles scientifically now - haven't done that in a few years. I've got mountains upon mountains of work here. Files on top of every flat surface in my office. I'll have to try and get a picture or two tomorrow night. Oh well, they'll get done when they get done. My new hours are fuX0r3d to the max though. No big deal, I've got so much vacation time it's not even funny. I'm going to love working 4.5 days for a while. Story of my life for today I guess.

    Projected RL-s Demo-Ring Time Slots

    12 weeks of sending it from door to door to demo like that is an awesome thing for a small company like SS to do.

    Finally go back to work today. Going to have a lot to catch up on. At least now I can finally start on my own suit.

    I blame it on the camera, but it's probably me.

    Have a good drive. How many hours?

    Welcome to the IHoP

    I don't know how you guys take pictures so well of the rings. My camera sucks at close ups. There's an important lesson here for the young guys. Unfortunately, if you put Aarons ring and my ring together, you could almost pay the invoice price of a '05 Scion xA. So don't get married.

    Just checked the blog. Holy chit that's a nice one.

    Welcome to the IHoP

    Congrats Glad she's happy with everything. I have a pretty good idea as to what the ring looks like based on your description, so I'd imagine she just loves it.

    Yeah I'd have to get the clear lenses. I'd look retarded with the yellow ones. The aviator style would work well in the office.

    Really? Non-prescription? From what I just Googled, it seems as though they'd cut down the headaches from when I sit at the computer too long. http://www.polarizedoptics.com/night_driving_glasses.html

    Welcome to the IHoP

    Banned from the vehicle. They almost guarantee a speeding ticket. I drive like an absolute idiot. Like when the COPS them song comes on ... I drive like a goddamn superdouche. Reminds me, I missed watching it last night. You can never have 'Running Down A Dream' playing too loudly.

    Welcome to the IHoP

    I like that Late Night Alumni stuff that dude posted on CA.com - the Seemingly Sleepy song is awesome in my opinion. When I drive at night, headlights coming the other way give me a headache in about five minutes. When I get headaches, I get pucking monster headaches ... like knock you out with a shot, take you to the hospital headaches - so I never really like driving at night. Anyone know any solutions for this? I've got to talk to my eye doctor about it. Thought about wearing the sunglass lenses I wear for baseball when it's kind of hazy out, you know ... they're kind of yellow/orange ? Figure it would cut down on the glare, but it's kind of stupid ... defeats the purpose of 'sun'glasses when it's pitch black out.

    I need some more good driving tunes. I've got a lot of classic rock that I listen to on the road. Never get tired of good 'ole CCR.

    No. Definitely not. Tell her. Get the little chit in trouble. They don't really grade parents, but if your daughter is a stripper ... you fudgeed up. (Chris Rock)

    Those rims are very nice. Would look good with the door handles shaved.

    Welcome to the IHoP

    I usually start off thinking "Hey, this song is good ... I'll listen to it." ... half way through "This chit is gay, next pucking song". Rare case is skipping to some random test tone or bass test for those special pwning sessions.

    Welcome to the IHoP

    I need to hide my remote. I'll be less tempted to change the song then, because that's a long way to reach down. I can't let a single song play all the way through.

    The Nano

    I agree. If the Nano happens to fit your budget, requirements, and you know what you're looking for ... go for it. If you're just in the market for an iPod/mp3 player, spending $50 more for a fullsize one makes a hell of a lot of sense.
