Ok, If you haven’t seen this — you need to!

Matrix Cow (requires Windows Media Player… uh, I think)

Yeah yeah, I know I said I wouldn’t update again. So what?

Ok, so I just find out that you can post in GMT, you just have to edit the settings. I also find out that they don’t keep putting HTML in places where you don’t want it to go if you so desire.

This is one very nifty little utility! I highly recommend it:

Blogger: Because You Don’t Want To Blag It^TM © (just in case they try and nick it…)

Hmmm. Anyone who is reading this blog will realise just how incredibly pointless it is after a few more of these posts… it’s not like I’m putting anything useful here or anything. Anyway.

This afternoon I went… record shopping! Yeah baby! I spend far too much on those black 12″ round thingies. Got a few good tracks though —

• Cygnus X – The Orange Theme [Hooj Choons 2000]
  Been after this one for a while! Fantastic tune from a few years back. 3, in fact (2000 release). The Bervoets & De Goeij (aka Rank 1) remix is good, but the main one I wanted was Moonman’s Orange Juice remix — fantastic stuff!

• Hydra – Affinity [Discover]
  Released this week. This is a beautiful tune, the backbeat mix is one of the best I’ve heard in a long time.

• 2 Players – Signet [Lost Language]
  Both discs of this. Good instrumental trance tune(s); what I would call “progressive” without being particularly progressive, if you see what I mean… 🙂

So there you have it. Oh, and if you’re reading this and wondering what I’m going on about, I do a bit of DJing; mainly trance and progressive trance etc. If you don’t know what that means, don’t worry… Oh, and if you want to check out my record collection, you can have a look at my record database.

I doubt I’ll make another update later today, seeing as I’m not doing anything particularly interesting for the rest of it.

I do have this uncomfortable feeling that I meant to post up something else… oh well, what the heck.

Take it easy mes ami.

EDIT: I wish they wouldn’t keep putting <BR> tags in, it makes it a lot harder. Ah, these things are sent to try our HTML skills 😉 Riiiiiiiiight…

This is fantastically exciting stuff, isn’t it? Ah well. I am currently sat in a rather fun Robotics lab where I have to make a robot. And it doesn’t want to work at the moment. Grrr.

People who read this blog (that should be just me then) may be asking the question: “Why? What’s the point of writing one?” Well the answer is, it’s mainly for my own good. I did once try to write a diary, it didn’t work very well. Doing one on a computer at least means that I should get a good chance to write it fairly often, and of course using Blogger it means that I don’t have to muck around with ASP, which is good.

More “news” to come later today, when I can be bothered to write something…

I’ve just realised this blog is all in American time. This would be a fairly logical thing really, given that the server does reside in America… unfortunately there doesn’t seem to be a way of changing it to another timezone. Seeing as I’m not paying anything for it, I can’t really complain (although I am, so making a statement like that is pretty dumb really. Oh well…) Anyway. The time is currently 00:41 17-Feb-2003, just in case you’re really that interested.

I guess one of the things I should post here is just why I’m putting this blog up here… I mean, it’s not like I expect anyone to read it or anything… Well. The main reason is because I just have too much free time: there are far too many times when I could be doing something productive that I just spend doing something which, well, really isn’t productive. Writing a blog probably doesn’t count as “productive”, but at least it’s doing something other than playing Minesweeper and drinking coffee (well, I could write a blog whilst drinking coffee at the same time, but the principle remains the same. I think. Just accept it without questioning… trust me, with me you’ll need to do that a lot.)

So, what did I get up to today? Nothing much really. This morning I went to Church. Mike Neville was speaking about Romans chapter 8; not one of the best sermons I’ve heard him preach but it should be interesting given that the subject was to do with stuff that we might be talking about in Fusion on wednesday.

If you’ve read this far you’ll probably either think I’m one of those weird (religious) types, or just not understand what I’m babbling on about… well, this isn’t necessarily a bad thing. It’s getting rather late, but never fear — chances are I will be back tomorrow during a rather boring robotics lab…

Rock on. And Rock Off.

That’s right! The moment you’ve all been dreading! I have finally succumbed to the whole “Blog” thing and decided to create my own…

I really don’t have much to write about right now in this, my first Blog… but nevertheless, I’ll just post something up here anyway.

I’ll leave you with the blessing: May the Force be with you. And also with you….
