Dr. Suess writing a technical manual for using the internet.

I found this just purusing and harassing my normal message boards:

If a packet hits a pocket on a socket on a port,
And the bus is interrupted as a very last resort,
And the address of the memory makes your floppy disk abort,
Then the socket packet pocket has an error to report!

If your cursor finds a menu item followed by a dash,
And the double-clicking icons put your window in the trash,
And your data is corrupted 'cause the index doesn't hash,
Then your situation's hopeless, and your system's gonna crash!

If the label on your cable on the gable at your house,
Says the network is connected to the button on your mouse,
But your packets want to tunnel to another protocol,
That's repeatedly rejected by the printer down the hall.

And your screen is all distorted by the side effects of gauss,
So your icons in the window are as wavy as a souse,
Then you may as well reboot and go out with a bang,
'Cause as sure as I'm a poet, the sucker's gonna hang!

When the copy of your floppy's getting sloppy on the disk,
And the microcode instructions cause unnecessary RISC,
Then you have to flash your memory and you'll want to RAM your ROM,
Quickly turn off your computer and be sure to tell your mom!

I thought that was kind of genuis, maybe Dr. Suess really wrote it.

....Alive....just busy....

With only one course this semester I have a lot of free time on my hands. That means I update all my profiles, harass the message boards, finally update my fanfiction(s) ^^;

The course is online but I have to log on 5-7 times a day, but the work is so easy so I basically just browse the internet while I'm on. And its only 4 weeks too.

In the meantime I will continue to post jokes and silly quizzes to my hearts content. Here's one that'll really get you thinking.

Hard Questions

How can you tell if bag pipes are in tune?

What happens if you get scared half to death twice?

How do you tell when you run out of invisible ink?

Laughing stock: cattle with a sense of humor.

Why do psychics have to ask you for your name?

OK, so what's the speed of dark?

Why is the word abbreviation so long?

Is it possible to be totally partial?

What's another word for thesaurus?

If a book about failures doesn't sell, is it a success?

If the cops arrest a mime, do they tell him he has the right to remain silent?

When it rains, why don't sheep shrink?

Can vegetarians eat animal crackers?

What do you do when you see an endangered animal that eats only endangered plants?

If someone with multiple personalities threatens to kill himself, is it considered a hostage situation?

Is there another word for synonym?

Where do forest rangers go to "get away from it all"?

Why do they report power outages on TV?

Can anybody think of any more?

The Real Name Quiz

My brother sent me this and I fell out laughing when I finished the test:

1. YOUR SPY NAME - Lakeya Faircrest
(middle name and current street name)


2.YOUR MOVIE STAR NAME - Willie Cadbury
(grandfather/grandmother on your dad's side and your favourite candy):


3. YOUR RAP NAME - J. Flow
(first initial of first name and first three or four letters of your last name):


4. YOUR GAMER TAG - Pink Panther (I know, I know) 
(a favourite colour, a favourite animal)


5. YOUR SOAP OPERA NAME - Catherine Gardens-
(Mom's/Dad's middle name, and city you were born in)


6. YOUR STAR WARS NAME -  Floelladd
(first three letters of your last name, last three letters of mother's maiden name, first three letters of your most recent pet's name)


7. JEDI NAME - Ayekal Llewes
(middle name spelled backwards, your mom's maiden name spelled backwards):


8. PORN STAR NAME - Snappy Duchess I love that name!
(first pet's name, the street you grew up on):

("The", the colour of shirt you're wearing and the automobile your dad drives)


10. YOUR ACTION HERO NAME - Will Onion Rings (LOL)

And if you don't feel comfortable putting your real city just make one up.

Movies I have to see

I'm supposed to be going to the show later tonight but the only thing I want to see again is Spiderman 3!!!  It's at the IMAX for $11.75 but everytime I called to see if they had any tickets left its always reserved until after 11pm!

But since its been out a few days now maybe they'll have a few tickets left, because since I allready watched it I don't want to spend 8 dollars if I can pay just 3 more for the IMAX.  But enough of that.

There's several movies I HAVE to see this year and that is:

Fantastic Four 2!!! I loved the first one

The Transformers: G4 is doing the countdown to the exact second and I'm waiting on the edge of my seat with them.

Sunshine- It came out allready but its about the sun dying out and they have to go it, farfetched but a concept I really am interested in watching.

Dreamgirls-Can't believe I haven't seen it yet.

And the last one thats coming to mind: NARUTO on the big screen.  I wonder how many times I can hear him say BELIEVE IT without suddenly tapping into my unkown chakra and destroying the whole theatre.

IRC is the Devil

For the past week I've been trying to learn how to use IRC and when I finally actually get connected to a channel (Shoujo Magic) I still couldn't figure out how to actually download any manga.

What I don't understand is how is IRC is easier than a direct DL from a website.  For some manga translators they forgo it because they say its too complicated.  But all the best manga is on the IRC, and I really want to finish reading Desire Climax!!  And even when they finally do make a Http release (different scan teams) they post that all new releases are on the IRC.

I know eventually I'll be able to work it properly, but I'm getting impatient!  I'm spending more time trying to actually try to figure out how to download from IRC than I am reading actual manga. 

One of these days (hopefully tomorrow) I will be able to figure it out!!!!!!!!!!

Jude has been dating Shay which Tommy has never been happy about. Even while seeing Shay, Jude still has feelings for Tommy but she thought it was a hopeless cause and one-sided. Overhearing a conversation between Tommy and Kwest reveals some startling information: Tommy likes her, but there age is the only thing that creats a problem.

Even though he admitted his feelings aloud nothing drove the point home until Tommy kissed her. It was as if a force compelled him to do it and nothing could have prevented him from doing it. Torture, passion, and regret were plastered on his face showing the emotions that he had kept compressed inside.

Time to be your 21 is a beautiful song that reflected Jude love for Tommy and her desire to not have that age barrier between them.

Patsy has been spiraling up and out of control since her appearance in season two but only until she signed over to G-major did she really begin to go downhill. Unlike Jude she refused to compromise she just wanted to make music in her own way whether from trash she found or mutilating a musical instrument.

She hated every moment of her time at G-major and showed a vulnerable side to herself by depending on Jamie to be on her side to not compromise. But instead he was the one to push her furthur away in the end which led to their showdown in the studio after hours. In a way Jamie broke her heart before they broke up by betraying her trust and her faith in him. All she had left that she could depend on was liquor and then she drove off drunk. Patsy will be missed.

After mending their strained relationship Tommy and Jude again a dynamic duo on the screen. In this episode you can see things are subtlely heating up between them. They may not be speaking the words from their mouth but their body language is saying it all. From the scene in the kitchen with the coffee when Tommy leans in as if about to kiss her to when he spins her around to him at the studio their romantic chemistry is shooting off sparks!

This episode set the perfect stage for a possible Jude and Tommy pairing in the future.

Not the long ago Jude was behaving as a normal fifteen and sixteen year old, handling her business and relationships they normally would. But she doesn't lead a normal teenage life and it was time for her to grow up and face everything, the good and the bad. When she posts the pictures of herself on her website she shows a responsible side to herself that she didn't even realize she had. She wanted her fans to see the real her, not the image G-major wanted to create. Though it did produce some negative feedback in the beginning due to Karma, it made her popularity sky-rocket.

Instant Star has never failed to instantly draw you in and capture your undivided attention and the season three premiere has lived up to it. Jude is striving to cement the fact in everyone minds that she's no longer an instant star, just simply a star, and it is evident when she takes the stage and sings the beautiful song "Should I Stay". What else could make the premiere more exciting than the appearance of Tommy with the child from Season 2? And without a word spar between our favorite team Tommy and Jude. This one is guaranteed to be the best yet.
