Inconsideration of other drivers

If it is one thing that bugs the hell out of me is inconsiderate drivers. You know the type, the ones who drive incredibly slow or start off from a light at the same pace as a snail. Then we have the ones who drive in the right hand lane and people are trying to merge, yet the people don't move over to let the merging traffic in. And then there are the ones that appear to be in their own little world and decide to use two lanes. And what about when driving on the highway, and the person in the left lane is driving almost directly beside the driver in the right lane, causing everyone else to go their same speed. And don't forget about the ones who don't know how to work a 4 way stop sign. The ones who pull out in front of you and take their sweet time getting up to speed, or not even the speed limit.

Its no wonder why Alberta has so many traffic accidents, when people decide to act like asses and think they dominate the whole road. A little consideration for the other drivers will go along way.

Fucking credit

So I go to buy a new car on Tuesday, and I then apply for financing, and they say they'll get back to me the next day (as I applied in the evening). So anyway I go and find out they want a co-signer for the financing...This strikes me as very odd considering I've never missed any payment on any of my loans/credit cards/cell phones/lines of credit. I have had a few credit cards as well, and all have been paid promptly or compeltely paid in full. I'm 25 years old and this is what I can expect by only paying my debts on time and the proper amounts??? What the fuck.

Now this is what gets me, my good friend is 2 years younger than me, and we had basically identical credit history (about same amount of loans and credit cards etc). He goes and applies for a new car a year ago and gets it no problem, then he goes and applies for a no down mortgage and gets it, first try. Then goes and applies for a motorbike loan and gets it, ended up writing off that bike, and applied for a 2nd bike and got that no problem. That bike got stolen, so applies for a 3rd bike and gets that without a hitch.

So what the fuck is happening???? up until a year ago, we had basically identical credit, and he just gets approved for everything.

Fuck I'm pissed.

P.S. Holy shit, its been over a year since I last posted :O

Miss Hawian Tropic Bikini Competition

Well on Friday, Andy, Greg, and Andrea went to Rum Jungle as we were judging the ladies in the bikini contest for Certified Radio. It was all good since each of us got a $25 bar tab. As well everyone got out of line and had a great time. This next week I am switching over to a 5 day work week instead of a 4 day. Up until now, all I've ever done has been the 10 hour days which usually leaves me pretty beat at the end of it. So I'm gonna give this a shot and see how things go.

Also Guild Wars is going well, I haven't been this hooked on any game for a very very long time.

Monique and I went and saw Batman Begins on the IMAX screen last night and I must say the movie is excellent. Very well done and brings back the dark atmosphere to the Batman movies. I recommend anyone to go see it.

Also it looks like I may be going down to Lethbridge for Street Machine weekend. That was something I was going to miss about moving, but it looks like I'll be able to take in the action.

What happend to our Tee time?

Well today I have a single day off between a 4 day stretch at work and another 4 day stretch coming up. Today we were supposed to go out to Ironhead Golf course and play 18. However when we got out there we found out that the owner at Certified Radio did not make the tee time for us. So not only did we waste 2 hours out of our day driving out there, but we also wasted gas too. So we just went back to Andy and Greg's place for steak and beer. All in all it was a pretty good day of just relaxing enjoying the nice day. Things with Monique are going great and we have been dating right around 2 months now, we get along great and have alot of things in common which makes things easy. Anyway Family Guy is on so I need to go watch it.

The old lady that deleted

Well Sabo got an interesting call the other night, a lady was trying to install MS Office on her PC when she had the cd or atleast she thought she had the right cd when she couldn't get it to install so she rebooted the computer and set the boot device to the cdrom, she then proceeded to boot into the Windows Setup! This should have triggered something in her mind that she wasn't using the right cd, but it didn't. So she proceeded to go up to install a clean copy of windows and of course it allows you to format the partition in XP so she went ahead and said yes to formatting. However about half way through the format, something must have clicked in her mind, cause she then powered off the machine fearing that she may have done something wrong. She turned the machine back on only to realize that Windows would not boot. So this is when she called into tech support. Alas there was nothing we could do for her. I know that the XP cd and Office cd both have that holographic look to the cd but the installation methods are so different, and the XP install even says that it will erase all information on the hard drive when it formats.

Now onto my call that same night. Dude calls up and says he dropped something heavy on his keyboard, now it won't work. So I asked him to try it on another PC and he said he didn't have another PC to try it on. So we tried a couple other things to see if we could for sure determine that it was defective. After about a half hour of running through some stuff he finally pipes up with "I have a spare keyboard and mouse, do you want me to try them", you woulda thought that he might have said something when I asked him if there was another PC around. Then he proceeds to say "Something pops up that says something", and then I say "Do you have anymore details on what it says", he says "Its just something that pops up that says something, can you help me", I say "Well no, you need to tell me what it says", he then goes "Its just something about something", I then say again "No, you need to be more specific in what it says", he then says, "Alright thanks for your help, have a good night". End of call.

I just don't know about some people.

The Sexbox and the Irish Pillows

Well this weekend has been busy. Thursday night Andy, Greg, and Andrea came up again this time to look for a place to live. We ended up going to Horny Tims for a midnight snack. When we were done and walked back to my apartment we got their stuff out of Greg's car and then hauled all their shit up to my place. While we were getting in the elevator these guys came from the Irish Pub just down the street and came into the same elevator. And Andy was carrying his Xbox and they had some pillows with a picture of the sun on them. As the guys got off on their floor they said have fun with your sexbox and your Irish pillows. Being St. Patricks day kinda really got to them at the pub I guess. Either way it was pretty funny since the pillows were the furthest thing from anything Irish. Also my parents came up to visit and are staying at my aunt's house and they will be going home on Tuesday. Its been good seeing them. Also PigDogg is aparently moving up here as well. So in total there will be 4 people from Lethbridge moving up. I'm excited to have them up here.

I found Grimace

Well saw a dude on the weekend that looked exactly like Grimace from the McDonalds commericals and crew.

We were at Kelly's Pub on Saturday night have some drinks and wings. And past the window walks this dude, at first I couldn't really see but I knew something wasn't quite right. Well he comes into the pub and I realize, this dude has no arms. Not only that but he has a shaved head, and huge smile. If only this dude was purple he would be the real grimace, he looked exactly like him. I felt kinda bad for the guy, but he seems like the kind that doesnt let anything keep him down. And when he left, he got in his jacked up new Ford truck and took off. The guys next to our table knew him and said that he has his drivers seat moved back and he steers with his feet. Now I know lots of people who can't steer with their arms let alone with their feet. The guys at the other table told me they keep asking him how he wipes his ass, and his response everytime is.....its magic.

Sleep is only a recommendation

Andy and Greg came up from the windy city on Friday afternoon cause he had a job interview at B&B Electronics. They stayed at my place on Friday night, when they came up to my place, Andy brought in his suitcase or atleast his milk crate



It was originally planned they come up on Friday afternoon, go out for beers Friday night, and Saturday go to his interview, then head home. Well it turned out that they stayed till 1 am Sunday/Saturday night. Only reason they still left was cause Andy had to work at 11:00 am that day. So Greg drove all night and Andy slept and went to work. LOL. It was good to see them again, and hopefully Andy moves up here. Saturday night consisted of going to The Globe and having a few. Also we went to The Druid and saw what it was like, quite a small bar in all honesty. All in all it was a good weekend though. I'm glad to be starting Dell tomorrow, because for not working for 2 weeks has been terrible, I've been so bored. But it looks like I'll be getting quite busy in the next few weeks as I will be building Quinn a website which will take up some time.

Heh, PS, I decided to change to Arial font on this post cause Times New Roman is kinda gay.
