AWOL: Day 43

Lord of Leisure Posted on March 28, 2008 by The Lord of LeisureMarch 28, 2008

After a restful night, with the wind howling outside, and the penguins getting annoyed after losing yet another hand of poker,  it appears that the slight worry was indeed all for nothing. Turns out it was just really bad indigestion. And yet if you’re going through it, you cannot help but think treachery was afoot. In any case, the need to keep taking the vast quantities of digestive wonder drugs is still very much present,  to make sure all is well.

The Arctic tundra today is still, with only a mild snowstorm and -26 temperature to contend with. While the lapse in  the blizzard is here, the lord will boldly venture out and enjoy the frosty morn before settling down with a good book later on. Rest today, for who knows what tomorrow brings.

AWOL: Day 42

Lord of Leisure Posted on March 27, 2008 by The Lord of LeisureNovember 4, 2010

I suspected I wasn't well for a reason...In-between a course of chilli and jelly babies from the food supply drops from the UN while I struggled on creating the product which would destroy all of mankind, something became wrong. Pain was becoming apparent around the chest area, and the world became uneven. Had the arctic tundra finally began to take its toll on the Lord of Leisure? Will a man unexpectedly bust into flames to emphasise the horror that has begun? Will we use a cheap gimmick like a snapshot from Alien?

I have no idea why this is suddenly began, one would point to my silly lifestyle of eating, not moving much and spending all the time in front of the magic box with the questionable amounts of illegal dirty movies. However, one other did remark that it could be stress, the lack of sleep, there are many factors which exhibit themselves on the body as a sign that it needs urgent attention.

Thanks to an overdose of Tums with a liberal helping of Milk of Magnus Magnusson from Mastermind, it appears the pain has been subsided for the moment, but either way a trip to see Doc Brown to either sort the problem or travel to 1885 is likely to be on the cards.

AWOL: Day 40

Lord of Leisure Posted on March 25, 2008 by The Lord of LeisureNovember 4, 2010

My kind of global warming.

This really funny picture was nicked from here: Found S**t

The Lord of Leisure’s Arctic adventure is drawing closer to the end that people’s across the land so much seek. As more work nears it’s completion, a new sense of hope of forming, beside the waste pile owing to not having correct flushing facilities in such a wilderness.

Yet in such a dense place of snow and yetis, still the thought of wanting Ice cream entered the Lord’s head more than once. How odd….must be ice madness, that well known dementia that settles in when the mind gets numb from…..ice. That sounds reasonable…. maybe.

On a more negative note, it does still mean that Ooh Sometimes won’t get as many updates as I would like to do. I still really want to do that piece about how the podcast is created and get those galleries up and running. I also wanted to contribute more material to Gamers with Jobs and re-work some of the material I’ve already submitted.

Epsiode 2: Be Happy and Sell Out

Lord of Leisure Posted on March 22, 2008 by The Lord of LeisureJuly 3, 2017

The swanky new logo. Like it?Yeah, we’re back baby with more complete waffle, some great music and a daring attempt to uplift people because it appears so many people have been so upset about everything.

I’ve edited the podcast since it’s release so it sounds slightly better and more normalised, but hopefully after May, things will improve greatly.

As usual you can subscribe to the show via the feed URL: https://lordofleisure.com/podcasts/feed.xml which you place carefully into your program of choice such as the free programs Juice or Doppler.

You also have the choice of searching the iTunes store, searching using either Paul Hughes, or Ooh Sometimes and subscribing using the software.

If you like what you hear or you don’t then please let us know at: podcast@oohsometimes.com and we’ll respond at some point.

AWOL: Day 34

Lord of Leisure Posted on March 19, 2008 by The Lord of LeisureNovember 4, 2010

Despite the lumbering and erotic advances from the yetis of Tokalow for dinner and a movie, Paul has remained stead-fast in the wilderness of the Arctic tundra, ploughing his way through endless screenshots of a system that will never see the light of day and destroying yet another batch of pot noodles to keep the spirits and also the local Sainsburys supermarket alive. Paul has also got confused as to why most of the writing recently has referred to himself in the third person.

However the weekend did offer a respite from the dullness, as three hardened travellers made their merry way down to the lordly manor house,Glyn, Kelly and G’s Mummy. It was scary in some respects as not many people visit the hallowed grounds of the Lord of Leisure, and thus the handsome but portly gentleman didn’t have a clue as to how to entertain.

Generally what tends to happen these days is that for the first hour or so, it’s all chatting away, and then afterwards you resort to talking about the weatherfor about 5 minutes after which all the tricks are used up, what can do you do?

We’ll Be Back

Lord of Leisure Posted on March 18, 2008 by The Lord of LeisureMarch 18, 2008

There will be new stuff on the website soon, just I’m busy at the moment! I have a week off to do various amounts of work so hopefully I will find the time to post more naughty and perhaps juggle some balls about while reciting Shakespeare for you all! Nice. Until my return to form, keep the faith campers and take another loan out to pay your bills. Go in peace… 🙂

More Gamers with Jobs Naughty…

Lord of Leisure Posted on March 12, 2008 by The Lord of LeisureMarch 13, 2008

Gamers with Jobs

And in a vain attempt to destroy more of the boredom that currently surrounds me, I attempted to make a very bizarre advert for the Gamers with Job’s folks, selling a war game in the style of a shampoo advert. in case you don’t want to venture over there and talk to the fine folks, then allow me to present the monster in all it’s glory here for you to enjoy….

[display_podcast]

Warning: Contains uncensored swearing

To answer the question if there will be more, yes there will be but in a little while, after all my head hurt after doing that. Moral of the story: thinking hurts. 🙂 and if anyone has a game they wish advertised in completely the wrong fashion let me know via email, comment away, whichever you like.

AWOL: Day 25

Lord of Leisure Posted on March 10, 2008 by The Lord of LeisureNovember 4, 2010

It’s been 25 days since I ventured into the arctic tundra of solace, to be at one with nature and maybe do some work. As the days go past, my thoughts begin to wander to past glories from last year, all those obstacles that I was to overcome, the climbing of Mount Olympus, the repeated sex scandals, defeat of the white whale to avenge my grandfather, and occasionally Glastonbury.

Food’s getting scarce now, I’m down to my last 17,000 tons of pies with mash and 180 containers of teabags with accompanying milk. Solitude can be a strange mistress, the mind wanes for life, and last night I swear that voices were heard through the wind, almost like it was beckoning me on, to succeed and survive (No, you b*****d, I want you to freeze your man sacks off! – Wind).

OK, so aside from that dilly-dallying, I’m sad to report that nothing much in terms of anything interesting has changed over the past few days, the work ever more continues, the dullness have become a naughty foe, throwing eggs at me and slashing the tyres of my car because it knows I can’t do anything about it for the time being.

But it’s not all typing useless rubbish which serves no purpose ultimately, there’s a slight flip side.

Viruses

Lord of Leisure Posted on March 7, 2008 by The Lord of LeisureMarch 13, 2008

Some of you may have noticed that some malicious f**ks have been altering the underlying code to oohsometimes.com and a few other pages as well I have hosted so that a whole load of actions occur such as launching your email client and running Microsoft Data access. I am doing the best I can to keep on top of this, and have been playing with locking down file permissions as much as WordPress allows me to without it throwing a wobbler and wanting it’s toys back.

I can only apologise if you’ve been a victim of any naughty as a result of coming to this site. And to those unmentionables, you can keep trying but in the end, it will do you no good. I have a bunch of IPs to see whose visited so I can just report those and let the relevant authorities do their thing. Hell I can create an access which blocks access to those IP addresses if I really want to waste more time on what is, frankly an annoyance to start with and a criminal offense, no matter what country you’re from?

AWOL: Day 20

Lord of Leisure Posted on March 5, 2008 by The Lord of LeisureMarch 5, 2008

The true way to learn.I’ve been falling behind this week with the work, as I decided foolishly to go to bed early on Monday and spent 11 hours in bed. Granted that’s cause for celebration, but waking up the next day, I was worse for wear. I don’t really understand why the body decided that enough sleep = you’re buggered for the entire day and making less sense to people than a DVD Player instruction manual written in Russian (Note: This applies even if you are Russian).

On a more positive note, I’ve taken some time this evening to do some recording as a small pet project and also to sort out the VOs received from Mr VO Man from across the pond, the script has come along really nicely and the theme is something that hopefully will make either people vomit with laughter or just vomit because they caught a nasty virus from the MP3 file.

It will be at least another week and a half before my time off comes around, along with being more sociable and finally I can concentrate on all the work I need to complete and perhaps fart out that little episode that has been promised to the masses for the end of March.

The news could be mentioned here as to what’s happening in the world but in all honesty, seeing as more people die, more politicians are bending us over a bench and making sweet love to our bums, claiming it’s for the good of the country etc, and more people blaming global warming for, oh I don’t know, indigestion from a bad curry, what’s the point?
