John Alexander McLean

R.I.P.

1982-2002

He was a good friend and I, as many others, will miss him a great deal.

“Hey, what’s this?” … “Looks like a floor, sir”

I’d tidied my den today. The place was an absolute mess. Thank god I don’t have any “before” shots, but here’s a few after shots…

(more…)

Bloody hell!

Geeze, looks like I’ve totally neglected this diary thing! Oh well…

The holiday in Cyprus has been and gone, I’m getting ready to head back to Uni for my 2nd year, I’ve lost a shitload of weight on the Weight Watcher’s diet thingie (I’m 10st 12lbs last I checked, I check tomorrow at Helen’s), Nemo’s website’s launched and stuff, I’ve sat my exam resits for uni, I still haven’t been paid by my boss (I’m thinking of going on strike), and I’ve spent a fortnight at Helen’s while her folks were away on their holiday to America. That’s about it I think.

I’m off to carry on with my south park series 6 downloads 🙂

Neglect

Wow! A number of things happen and I don’t post it on here. The holiday’s been and gone, our band’s recorded it’s first demo, and I’m in the process of designing the official Nemo website. Other than that, there’s not much to report, besides eating less (as in avoiding snacks and take aways) in a vain attempt to lose weight.

Yay!

I found my passport! After having turned my bedroom upside down and back again, I found it in a box full of misc documents and papers in a cupboard. Now I can go on holiday next week! Yay!

Damn

Now a week after my last exam for the semester, I’m now preparing for my holiday in Cyprus as well as working on a couple of websites by the start of next week (ish). Not alot more to report really, besides the new USB scanner and the 2nd monitor for the computer.

It’s nice to have a desktop spread across two monitors…

Quite simply… hell

Past week or so has been busy, what with exams and work. I’m not really gonna make work interfere with my life for the next few days, or at least until I’ve sat my Formal Methods exam next Tuesday.

Just tidied my room after days – perhaps weeks – of neglect. I’ve now got some clothes!! 😉 Anyway, gonna go relax while I still can…

MSN MSGer

Oooh I’ve found a few tools on the ‘net that’ll let me fiddle with MSN Messenger a little more. I’ve now changed it so it adds the name of a song I’m currently listening to to the end of my nickname on it dynamically (e.g. zxon – currently listening to “Offspring – Pay The Man”) and I’ve put a looovely pic of Natalie Portman on as my background *drool*

More quotes!

// May 10th, 2002 // No Comments » // Geeky Stuff, General

That little thing that appears in the top right hand corner of every page, the thing with the random quotes… I’ve added 28 more to the list. These are quotes taken from lines that peeps have said on Trekkers Rest, in one form or another. There’s a few good eyebrow raisers there that’ll keep you amused for a few seconds 😉

If you go to Trekkers Rest II or III or TrueFriends and you’ve got a good quote that’d be a nice addition to this site, e-mail me.

Has anyone else come across this? I just bought a small packet of Peanut M&M’s about 20 minutes ago and I’ve come across this M&M…

It could just be an uncomplete M that’s usually found on the side of each M&M but at the same time it doesn’t seem like it…
