You're right! I'm working on a program for a little box which I'll attach to the can machines in work, thus giving me TWO for the price of ONE every time!
Well, not really. Just boring shite I guess
I've got that remix, I'll listen to it now in a bit (when I wake up a bit more) - have u got the link for Flea's zebox thingy too?

Well I started off with data conversion, and now I'm going on to loads of GIS related crap... it's all very very dull but the actual programming is strangely satisfying =oD

Global/Geographical (depending on who you ask) Information Systems. It's the technology that chain stores use to decide the best place financially to place their next store.
It's fairly similair to data manipulation/statistics/databases in theory, although I've never programmed anything to do with it...

Alright Matey!
Yep, I'm def. still up for ATP 2003 if you are, we need to book soon though. Who do you want to sort out the booking? You & Pogo/ Me & Chris?
If you want you can post checks to me and I'll book as soon as I get them (if we can't get a booking I'll post them back) or vice versa.
Good to have you back online mate.

OK, I've never written a cheque in my life but I suppose I can get it done somehow, probably be on the 25th or thereabouts, when I get paid =oD
There were a coupla bods down here who were interested in coming as well but they're probably a bit too unreliable so fuck it, we'll get a 4 berth methinks

Jar puts lamposts on maps in swansea =oD
Computor programming will be cool though, he can teach me how to loads of funky shit
BTW Jar, Jayne said that she may come too, I'll drop her a mail now and let you know.

Can you get the cash off any of your mates, if we go ahead and book I don't want to end up out of pocket with a surplus ticket if someone drops out.
Is it cool if keyfumbler comes too?
Bear in mind 8 berths have sold out...
Pogo/Jar: is Jayne your mate who came to Pogo's 21st?

Oh yeah, if she comes then she pays up front, definitely. We'll cover all our costs when we send the money to you.
I don't think anyone else I know wants to come, so if Jayne is up for it then we need a sixer, so Keyfumbler is in. If she isn't, then we need to find another to make up the numbers...
Jayne is indeed that goth looking witch who came to Cardiff =oD

Keyfumbler said he has already got tickets with his mates. I've just checked, there are 5 berths still avialable, but I think I read that they had nearly sold out of 5 berths...
Email me as soon as you have the cash so we can make a move...
I just hope they don't cash my rent check till after payday :S

hey Jar...just wanted to say I read...Dice Man on your recommendation....a fantastic read!...and can now see where Chuck Palahniuk got some of his inspirations for Fight Club....it's Dice Man with Sex replaced with violence with a dash of the S.C.U.M manifesto thrown in for good measure...

Ceri: I say we just go for a four berth, Jayne fucking hates IDM anyway (I shall discuss this with the missus)
Flea: It IS a great read, innit? Avoid the sequel like the plague though =oD
I'm looking forward to 'Lullaby', Chuck's new book. Last time I looked on his website you could enter a contest to have your name used as a character, dunno if that's still going

yeah a great read..and yeah I will believe the warning about the sequel...the concept was stretched a bit too thin..and was petering out by the end of the book...cant imagine it lasting another 400 odd pages without cracking and peeling...
so is it like partly fact based?

I remember reading a little about it on the web when I'd finished it and there wasn't really much info, but I'm fairly certain it's entirely fictional... perhaps he did apply some of the things in the book to his life but I doubt it was quite as extreme as in the book =o)
The sequel is about his son trying to locate him... it's a piss poor effort really, and lacks any of the humour of the first book. Indeed it's written in a completely different style and has hardly anything in common with the prequel. Read Irvine Welsh instead! I just finished 'Trainspotting' and 'The Acid House' and I haven't laughed so much since 'American Psycho'

Hullo! Yeah, she fixed it! We had to sell our souls to Satan for it, but at least we have the net back (Lucifer also gave us a box of donuts, nice chap). We are doing good, I'm kicking her to the kitchen to make me some food as we speak =oP

read both the Welshes in question..funny stuff.. :)
I recommend the Ecstasy Club by Douglas Rushkoff...it's a funny take on the rave scene..similar making and destruction of a cult theme as in Dice Men and Fight Club..it's a bit dry but it's a good spoof of the music scenes of the early 90's a lot if I could relate to..
Skin by Kathe Koja is another good one..it dismantles the Performance Art Body Modificaton and Industrial music scene of the early 90's as well..though lumped in with Horror..it isnt...she has the most lyrical and amzingly poetic writing style as well...
