few changes here and there

I have made a few changes to the look of the blog. Minor things, which no one will probably notice. Anyway... umm... lets see...

Oh yes! I would also like to announce, or more accurately reannounce, the recent change with Novell and SuSE. They are now going to make, what they call, OpenSuSE. This comes down to a similar path that RedHat took with Fedora. However, this change will be different, in that 1st, It won't suck, and second well I don't exactly remember the second thing, but if you go to distrowatch and look at the SuSE section you can find it out.

Anyway, I see this as a glorius new start in the right direction for Novell and SuSE. Especially Novell, since I assumed the corprate ownership of SuSE would suck and for a while it did especially with the initial release of SuSE 9.3 lacking most media support. Thankfully they realised the mistake in their ways. I only see good things from this. Let us hope all turns out well.

It's good to back...

Let me tell you...

Tommorrow is Yesterday's Today?

It makes me wonder sometimes, why?

I want to clarify, that at no time, while blogging, or before or after for that matter, was I on any form of drug, aside from caffeine, which I shouldn't take for personal health reasons.

This is all part of my regular thought process.

----

The above post was to answer my first "blog fan question" by someone who I shall not mention, as they did not give me their name. Anyway....

I do wonder, why would someone think I need to take drugs to alter my state of reality. I learned long ago that I live in my own fantasy world. I mean for goodness sake, I trust the government, not completely, or that is more to say I actually have faith that they will do good. Of course my idealism is quickly shattered by pravda and then I become depressed and sad.

After I decide that ending it isn't an option, I go on believing that things can only get better from here on out and then they only get worse or sometimes, just every now and then, a glimmering spot comes around and something good happens for a change. It makes me so sick to think that really the world is really horror and disgust with an occasional "sunny day." But I think we have all just learned to live with it, either that or bottle it all away, as I have.

Of course, if this life was meant to be enjoyed most of us probably wouldn't be here. However in the end, everything is about the material world and possesion, which leads to power and idle promises, which leads to suffering and pain, which leads to hate and destruction, but ultimately a rebirth, though never in a new direction. Only a repetition of the same old thing.

Everything has already happened, and everything will happen again. There isn't a damn thing we can do to stop it and that is the way things are.

Now -- a song --

Heaven
A gateway to hope
Just like a feeling
I need, it's no joke

And though it hurts me
To see you this way
Betrayed by words
I'd never heard
Too hard to say them

Up, down, turn around; please don't let me hit the ground
Tonight I think I'll walk alone; find my soul as I go home

Up, down, turn around; please don't let me hit the ground
Tonight I think I'll walk alone; find my soul as I go home

Oh it's the last time, it's the last time
Oh it's the last time, it's the last time

Each way I turn
I know I'll always try
To break the circle
That has been placed round me

From time to time
I find I lost
Some meaning
That was urgent
To myself
I do believe

Oh, up, down, turn around; please don't let me hit the ground
Tonight I think I'll walk alone; find my soul as I go home

Oh, up, down, turn around; please don't let me hit the ground
Tonight I think I'll walk alone; find my soul as I go home

Oh it's the last time, it's the last time
Oh it's the last time, it's the last time

And I have never met anyone quite like you before
And I've never met anyone quite like you before

And I have never met anyone quite like you before
And I've never met anyone quite like you before

And I've never met anyone quite like you before
Oh, up, down, turn around; please don't let me hit the ground
Tonight I think I'll walk alone; find my soul as I go home

And I never met anyone quite like you before
Up, down, turn around; please don't let me hit the ground
Tonight I think I'll walk alone; find my soul as I go home

Up, down, turn around; please don't let me hit the ground
Tonight I think I'll walk alone; find my soul as I go home

Up, down, turn around; please don't let me hit the ground
Tonight I think I'll walk alone; find my soul as I go home

The show is over....bitch

Chappelle's Show is Done, Over, Not Gonna Happen!

well, anyway, I DUNNO.

Need a few good....people.

I am asking for the unqualified and those without a clue, to aid me in my blogging. Any person that wishes to help me please contact me via 1 or all of the email addresses to the right. I want some fresh blood, in a non literal sense of course. (I gave that up a while, jk). Anyway. My only qualification is no swearing. That is absolutely no foul language, except for words that I use. You can always ask if something is acceptable.

Anyway, just keep in mind what this thing is all about:

"I ramble on about something or other... People don't really pay attention to me.... We die..."

(This is what it says, (right now), to the top right of the screen).

Almost anything can be posted as long as, again, it is clean in nature.
Anyway, I hope to hear from someone, with in the near future.

Also, if chosen there is a good chance I will make fun of you often, possibly to the point where you may wish to kill yourself and/or me. Just so you know.

All went well....

Well it seems that everyone did what they needed to.

The shuttle went off without a hitch, or so it seems.

Tons of video to go through now, checking everything, but I am sure all went well.

Good to know, Great to see, Hope to see more....

An oddity I stumbled upon:
Beyond
The rim of the star-light
My love
Is wand'ring in star-flight
I know
He'll find in star-clustered reaches
Love,
Strange love a star woman teaches.
I know
His journey ends never
His star trek
Will go on forever.
But tell him
While he wanders his starry sea
Remember, remember me.

The words to the Original Star Trek Theme, never used...
I wonder why?? Not really, but anyway, back to real life now...

Pre Flight STS-114......Again

As I write this it is a little of 1h20m to launch and I hope to God it all works.

From NASA:

Mission: International Space Station Flight LF1
Shuttle: Discovery
Launch Pad: 39B
Launch: July 26, 2005
Landing: August 7, 2005
Duration: 12 days
Orbital Insertion Altitude: 122 nautical miles
Orbit Inclination: 51.60°

Space Shuttle Discovery is ready for liftoff atop Launch Pad 39B. Approximately 500,000 gallons of liquid oxygen and hydrogen now fill the vehicle's orange External Tank. The propellants will drive Discovery's three powerful main engines as the Space Shuttle rumbles into orbit. All systems aboard the ship are functioning normally and ready for launch.

Launch of Space Shuttle Discovery on mission STS-114, NASA's Return to Flight mission, is set for today at 10:39 a.m. EDT.

The chance of Kennedy weather cooperating for the launch is now at 80 percent.
