24: Tis the season to be silly…
Well, i say silly, more relaxed as the weather in recent days has been brilliant. Walking outside, not needing a coat, it’s been a welcome change to the normal british weather folks. Now you may think oh dear, he’s talking about the weather now! Well it’s just one of those things you are expected to do. It’s always a topic of conversation and everyone has something to say on it.
Now on this Saturday morn, there isn’t an awful lot that’s happened around these parts, whereas this week, has shown that the “silly season has kicked in.” I refer of course to the dramatic events over in America, where they have had to add a checkbox to the University application forms stating if you are a homocidal maniac or not.
It deeply disturbs me every time something like this happens, becuase it puts the idea in my head, that this can happen at any moment just one more nutter to cause so much agony. He had even gone to the trouble of producing a video with pictures of why he was doing it while on the killing spree, that’s quite an achievement really, becuase i must admit that’s not something I would have thought of doing. Then again I wouldn’t have thought of just wandering around wolverhampton uni just killing people.
Granted He will do no further harm to others in this life, but his video etc which was shown across the world has earned him status, and people know who he is. That video will haunt the family and friends of those lost for a long time. Problem is, it will happen again and again. We all know it will, it’s only a matter of time.
Of course this opened up the whole Gun debate, should there be more control etc. The answer to me is yes, but as Slaughter pointed out to me, where there’s a will there is a way, even over here in blighty we currently have gang members with guns on the streets wandering around shooting each other (which I am 100% fine with, if they want to each EACH OTHER, and no one else, I say let them) But it’s yet another example why the land of the free holds many wonders and dangers all at once.
Tis not often I comment on Events happening in the real world (my world is nice and fluffy, well the walls are anyway) but considering things like this shake the foundation of society for its evil intent and insanity, it can’t be allowed to pass.
Thursday, spoke to my good friends Mr. Tebbutt and Mr. Middleton about the super secret project which will take place over the coming months, hoping for a summer release but can’t promise anything. Reason why they know is their expertise on the subject in question and i would be an idiot not to consult them.
The Podcast is at the moment, we have the music and the opening sequence sorted along with new lines from Slaughter but nothing further yet. Will have to knuckle down on that after the uni work. Uni work got extended so more time will be wasted on that.
Friday worked late into the night migrating a system to the windows 2003 platform again, but also had a wander around the telford area after Chez said come join us. I tried to, but alas it all went up the wall. I did go to the same place, Naughty Nell’s which was dead, but the doorman with dreadlocks was nice to talk to as you wait. Had one drink didn’t see them anywhere, tried ringing but no joy so at 12 midnight, as i was knackered had enough and went home to sleep.
The weekend presents some challenges to overcome and a nice social gathering (well if work doesn’t crop up again that is), I will tell you all about those soon. Take care campers, and I hope all is well in your neck of the woods, where ever that may be…
Hugs and Kisses
Paul
