Especially if you run a business. *Especially* if you run a nightclub! Angry webmasters have easy ways of getting their revenge. This is a screenshot of the website for “Life”, a club down in Miami:

While I wait for this flu that I’ve got to go away, I’ve been finding crap on the net. Here is some of the crap I’ve found so far today:

Starbucks craptastification of Starship’s “We built this city”, which I actually used to like listening to as a kid (the Starship version, not this shite). Oh, and don’t get me started on Starbucks! I’m not a huge coffee drinker but I’ll have a couple of cups a week. My god the coffee over here is generally crap. There are a couple of Euro-themed restaurants that seem to get the coffee right but not much else does. I was working late one night and one of my colleagues asked me if I’d like a coffee. I thought “Yeah, that’d be sweet!” I really started looking forward to my coffee. When he came back I saw that he’d visited the local Starbucks. My mood hit the brakes and swung in the opposite direction. Let me say this: I really, really hate Starbucks coffee. I drank it anyway because he’d gone to all that trouble to get it for me but I think that was the worst coffee I’ve ever had. I was even worse than when I had a Starbucks coffee in Australia.

Ok, next site: How to win at Pac-Man

Next: Yahoo Serious is still around. Sort of. God damn I can’t remember how many times I watched Young Einstein.

Next: The audio from of my favourite movies Office Space (because it’s all so true) combined with the visuals provided from an old cartoon series called “Superfriends” involving Batman and Robin, Superman et al. Captain Planet had not been invented yet. Oh, oh, oh, the mash-up movie is here (I think this was done a while back, but it’s the first time I’ve seen it).

Are here. I’ve got pics of signs advertising a brothel called the “Shady Lady Ranch”, a nice pic of a Joshua tree, pictures showing my affection with roads going off into the distance, having fun riding bombs, and pictures of highly sophisticated and blossoming towns.

UPDATE: When browsing Flickr photos, you may notice that you can’t view higher resolution versions of the photos. They’re making a stack of changes at Flickr, so this should be fixed in the near future. It doesn’t really worry me at this stage because god damn at least they’re actually making changes!

UPDATE: The problem with not being able to view larger images was with me and I’ve fixed it now.

You may wonder why the hell I’m making this post at 5:18 in the morning. Well, I got back from work last night as sick as a dog and fell asleep straight away. I woke up about an hour ago but have so far been unsuccessful in getting back to sleep, so I thought I’d strum the guitar and crank up the compy. I then saw my dead iPod sitting on my desk. I remembered I was supposed to take it in for a warranty exchange a couple of days ago. I thought ‘well, there is no harm in trying to charge it again’. I put it in its dock and paint me green and call me Gumby, the bloody thing started charging. As you could imagine I’m pretty chuffed about that! I’m also at a loss to explain why it didn’t charge before, even when connected to my friend’s proper charger. Weird.
