OK

Jester - Good luck with your job search, hopefully you land a better gig.

@Jestre:

At this point I'm willing to do almost anything.  As long as it doesn't involve juveniles & pays slightly better I'll be content.

Jestre, what about selling some commodified dreck on ebay as a starting point? Buy a couple of gross of lighters or screen protectors and a whole bunch of small padded envelopes. Make a modest margin on each item and keep rinsing the volume, yeah it will be boring but it has a low start up cost and will provided some immediate pay back.

Thanks for the kind words everyone.  Hopefully I'll have some good news to report a few months down the line.

Any ballers here in their late 20s very early 30s? Remember the day when you stumbled across the trailer for the first And1 mixtape and then proceeded to scour napster and Kazaa for days and weeks to find a full, uncorrupted copy of the original? This video here: http://www.highsnobiety.com/news/2011/07/09/video-jordan-brand-quai-54-streetball-championship-recap/

has some dunks that brought back that feeling.

why why why only I have to deal all the time with the most idiotic customs office in whole fecking Germany. Got a letter today, that they are unable to delivery me a sending, since the customs declarations and the invoice would be missing on the package. Guess what I found attached to the 3 page info, right, a copy of the customs declarations and of the invoice….. aaarrrggghhh!

I hate redoing assloads of things that weren't done correctly in my home renovation.  I just reinstalled a ceiling fan because the "electricians" didn't put it on straight.  Good thing I did it, too, since they tore the ground wire apart when they put it in.  An electrical fire would have been super cool…

We hired a renovation/construction company because I'm not competent enough to build an addition onto my house.  Apparently, neither are they.

So, one of the reasons, at vast expense, we moved to Mac was so we could utilise MobileMe.  Alex went to set it up for us today, as Mme B has got a sparkly new iPhone, and MobileMe is no longer, it's defunct, nada, fecked.  We now have to wait for iCloud, so we're buggered until that happens…....

[elclintor]

at least iCloud is free..

[LC_Miey]

I suppose now would be an appropriate time to rant about Apple's tendency to do whatever the hell it wants, regardless of any interests of its customers to the contrary.  Don't worry Giles, Apple knows what's best for you.  Just trust Big Brother and everything will be "magical".

Crazy hot in Toronto today!  It's going to be 38C, with the humidity it will feel like 49C.
