My 30th Birthday

Posted on 25 May 2010

So not only did I turn 30 this year, But I got a awesome gift from my friends. Since I’m always interested in the older ladies they got me a Cougar Hunter T-Shirt. Which fits perfectly for me.

I’m on the prowl ladies.

FallenSword, Thoughts

The rise of the MMORPG.

Posted on 25 May 2010

So up until now I have been against MMORPG’s and video games, not for the fact that they aren’t fun but I tend to get addicted to them very rapidly and spend hours on end playing.

Well it’s started again

Last year some work friends and I started to play WOW and I ranked up fairly quickly and then my account got hacked and I stopped playing.    And I could have continued from the begining but I was so frustarated by the hours that I was playing and every time I went to play no one was on “team speak.”   So again I stopped playing

So I have met my new video game addiction, Fallen Sword, This game is truly what I remember falling in love with about video games.   It’s a turn based game and no graphics just a dot on a screen and you use your keyboard to attack.

Plus it’s free. I started in January and ranked up to level 84 around May.  Plus my friends are also on the game too which makes it easier for gear since one of us is always higher in rank we trade gear back and forth so we don’t need to spend money on FSP (Fallen Sword Points)

You should play too, you won’t regret it.

Satire, Thoughts

What not to do at a Particle Physics Facility

Posted on 22 April 2010

I’ve always wondered what the rules you can and can’t do at CERN

Wikipedia Article on the LHC

According to the website

This is what you can’t do- I’m sure the real LHC and CERN rules and staff are professional- This is a Satire on the outcome of working with the LHC

The following general safety rules apply in all experimental areas: “http://outreach.web.cern.ch/outreach/visits/safety/”

* Children under 14 years of age may visit the underground areas under certain conditions (please contact Visits Service for details)
* School groups of minors visiting the site must be accompanied by one adult per 12 students.
* No smoking is allowed in any part of the Laboratory.
* The tours may be strenuous for some visitors, particularly for the elderly, pregnant women and the handicapped (e.g. steep stairways).
* Please note that the tour itineraries take you into buildings housing scientific and technical equipment. For safety reasons, high-heeled shoes or open-toed shoes, flip-flops or sandals are not permitted.
* Visitors confined to a wheelchair must give prior warning to the Visits Service.

So I’ve complied my own list of what we can’t do, Being that CERN’s LHC has giant Electromagnets all over the facility

Here is the Areial View of Cern

The Earl (4/03/10)

Posted on 03 April 2010

The crew and I went out last night to “The Earl” to meet some friends and go see

The Dexateens

Truckstop Coffee

Prison Book Club

It was at a benefit concert for pulmonary hypertension.

So none of us had heard of the first act, Prison Book Club, Who were outstanding it was a mix of, Sloppy trashy music with a mix of Hot Water Music and chaos.

We ended up buying the Cd and it was sonic joy in the car ride home..

Next up was Truckstop Coffee, While their intestacy was good, We couldn’t understand what they were saying and way too much bass.

The hour was late and we were all getting tired. I mean it was a standing room floor.

Then the Dexateens came on, And these guys come on stage that look like good ol’ country boys.
