Honey Badger
OK this has been around for awhile but just watched the youtube video again and thought I would post it here so that I don't forget about it again. Cause hey, Honey Badger he just don't care.
Plus it gives me a reason to try out the new youtube embed code to see if it conflicts with the blog.

My ISP Sucks
The service from my ISP is really starting to annoy the hell out of me. My uploads speeds are sucking wind right now when it doesn't drop the connection altogether. It finally finished uploading from the laptop, as Curly always says "If at first you don't succeed, keep on sucking till you do suck seed".
You know when I was younger watching the Stooges I always thought that line was just a funny play on words. Indeed that may have been all it was meant to be. When I got older though I realized hey wait a minute, if you think about it that is actually pretty nasty.
All of that aside the last upload of the site is finished and it seems to all be there now with right permissions so that the world can see the pages. So I think I'll call this done for now. Maybe I can watch an episode or two of Stargate Atlantis but then again with the way the internet connection is acting maybe I won't either. On the bright side I do have ice for a pepsi.

Think I Fixed It
Ok after a little tinkering and file copying I think I've got everything working again. Hopefully now I can blog from the laptop and have it update like it's supposed to. That in fact is what this post is all about.
Once I hit blaze-sync I'll see if I can still see the pages on the site.

Win Frickin 7
Was doing some file transfering to the laptop and windows managed to totally screw all of the file permissions of website. So this will take a little bit to fix. Made all the better because my internet has picked now to slow to a crawl. Oh joy.
To be fair I can't really blame this on windows just the fat32 filesystem on the stick that I used to move the files. Guess I need to create a tar archive first that way I know when I expand it in linux all the files will have the right permissions. Hmmm, so I guess it's really my fault. Damn that sucks.

Annoyed As Hell
Right now I'm annoyed as all hell. It wouldn't be going too far to say that I'm am just plain pissy. The bad thing is that what finally set me off was going to get a glass of Pepsi. "Oh it was all gone", you say, "Yeah we all hate that." No, I've got plenty of Pepsi there is no freakin' ICE! I open up the freezer and there are four empty f'ing ice trays sitting there looking at me. I hate ice trays even full ones, much less empty ones. Empty ones means that somebody didn't take the time to fill the damn things back up when they got ice last time. Not just one glass of ice but four frickin' trays worth and couldn't take the time to fill even one back up. I hate ice trays I hate filling the damn things back up but I do fill them because next time I want ice in my pepsi damn it I know there won't be any if I don't fill the things up. I want my ice maker to work but I've got really hard water and the damn thing won't work for more than a couple of months without the valves and other little f'ing fiddly bits getting covered in calcium crap. When that happens I come home to a flooded kitchen because the friggin' fiddly bits don't work right and the water doesn't shut off. I want a damned super reverse osmosis filter that stops all the calcium crap and when it gets itself all clogged up instead of me having to screw with it, it backflushes itself down the damned drain. I'm sick of the fiddly bits in my freezer getting coated in calcium crap and I'm sick of the damned ice trays. I want a damned cold pepsi and all I've got is four empty damned ice trays.
Plus the internet is down so I can't even post this so that I obtain whatever little catharsis might be possible from posting a stupid rant about f'ing ice trays being empty and damned fine little fiddly bits of the fridge being covered in calcium crap and depriving me of a cold pepsi. Cause my ISP has seen fit apparently to oversell their bandwidth. I was having a perfectly nice morning watching some episodes of Stargate Atlantis but no can't have me watching netflix oh no, and when I want to console myself with pepsi not just no but hell no. We can't have that. Oh no, it's a conspiracy of ice trays and fiddly bits covered in white flaky crap.
I'd hit something but I know damn good and well that I'd be the one fixing the hole later and then I would just have to be pissed all over again about the stupidity of tearing up shit that I just have to fix later. Maybe I need one of those stupid squishy ball things that you smash and squeeze when you get all stressed.
Stupid ass squishy ball things anyway, what good are they? I ask you just what good is a damned little plushy thing filled with some kind of goddamned probably toxic gel that will kill you if you pop the damned thing?
It's a good thing that I keep all the blog posts on my computer and they get published later. At least that way I don't have to be pissed about the internet again. I can just save this and it will be ready to post when I upload everything to the blog again.
And what is it about the whole double space after a period isn't the right thing to do anymore? I'm constantly using three keystrokes at the ends of sentences now. See like right there I typed a damned period then hit space twice and then the backspace once alright that is pissing me off now too. Just who was it that decided to change the rules 25 years after I learned to type. Yes, for any whippersnappers out there I learned on a typewriter not a computer keyboard. It wasn't called keyboarding when I did it, it was typing class on damned electric typewriter and when we made mistakes there wasn't any of this wimpy assed backspacing. We had to use that damned sticky, smelly liquid paper crap.
OK this is turning into a free form rant and surprisingly my blood pressure has come down some. So hitting add to blog now and I might remove this later but then again I might not.
Alright I'm not done. I'm writing this from linux running inside a virtual machine that is running on Windows frickin' 7. I hate windows but I've got a laptop that came with windows installed so what do I do I put virtual box on the Win frickin' 7 laptop so I can use all the things that I'm used to in linux and not have to putz around with the hard drive on the laptop. Ok, thats stupid too and its pissing my off.
I would go to Newegg right now and buy a new hard drive for the laptop so I could take the drive with Win frickin' 7 on it and put it in a drawer somewhere just in case I ever needed windows again some time and install linux on my laptop, but oh wait. I can't do that because my damned internet is down and I can't surf to Newegg or watch Stargate Atlantis on Netflix.
Screw this I'm going to bed.
