Grimm's weblog

I went to my douchebag MP's, website clicked the email link, send an angry email and it bounces back saying the address doesn't exist, so I look up his email on the Ottawa MP site and see that he fucking misspelled the address on his website, did that make me more angry in writing a follow up? It SURE did fella, it sure did.

While standing around the multipurpose/kitchen/game room at work today, a pipe burst from the ceiling and sprayed an insane amount of gray chemical smelling water at us. We heard a loud bang type sound and then high pressure water started spraying through the roof tiles, it kept getting stronger and its reach kept getting further till it hit the projector we have mounted from the ceiling (2 week old, 5000$ dollar projector, dead). Once the water got near the projector we ran the hell out of there in fear for our lives, someone pulled the fire alarm because we weren't sure if it was fuel coming out of there, and the whole building was evacuated. Once it was confirmed that it was not a fire hazard we went back in. The room was wrecked and had like 2 inches of water, the LCD projector is toast, as is our ping pong table which was right under the pipe, someone said the 42' HDTV fried, the XBOX 360 had gotten the red ring of death 2 days before so no loss there, and the PS3 is not wet so we think it's okay.

It turns out it was a pipe from the fire suppression system, hence the chemical smell. In conclusion it was a crazy day, and we are all glad it wasn't a flammable fluid which could have killed us.

Clean up in progess

There's the HDTV back there

For me Steven King movies are pretty much hit or miss. This one was a hit, we cheered when the religious bitch got capped, and that ending was insane. It was also nice to see Pembelton from Homicide again, it's been a while since I've seen him. He was really good in Glory. So in conclusion Glory is a great movie and I highly recommend it. Also The Mist was a great horror, and I recommend it as well : )

KAMPALA, Uganda - Stephen Harper concluded a Commonwealth summit Sunday by bluntly describing the Kyoto accord as a mistake the world must never repeat.

The prime minister characterized the landmark climate change deal as a flawed document and served notice that Canada will not support any new international treaty that carries its fatal flaw...

Harper's remarks on Kyoto offer the latest in a series of public stances he has taken on the treaty, which demands six per cent emissions cuts below 1990 levels by 2012.

Five years ago he described it as a money-sucking socialist scheme and ridiculed the science of global warming when the previous Liberal government ratified the treaty...

Some foreign diplomats were so disgusted that they sought out Canadian journalists to tell them what their country was doing behind closed doors.

One called the Harper approach a perfect recipe for making sure nothing happens.

Canada was among the only countries to oppose a resolution that had called on developed countries to meet binding targets, without making any reference to developing ones like India.

The other major holdout, Australia's government led by John Howard, was turfed from office in an election during the summit.

Howard's successor, Kevin Rudd, has promised to sign the Kyoto accord immediately upon taking office. (full article)

Let's do like Australia and oust our current government for one that will take this critical issue more seriously, and not keep towing the United States Republican party line.

During lunch we went to Best Buy to pick up Assassin's Creed, the regular version wasn't in stock so I picked up the collectors edition. It came with a little action figure that I'm now prancing around my desk, and a comic by Penny-Arcade and a making of DVD. Only 10$ more than the regular so not bad.
We shall be busting this baby out tonight for game night.

I FUCKING HATE SUSE AND EVERYONE THAT WORKS AT NOVELL! If I have to deal with them for one more second I swear to got I am going to snap. I think I mentioned how everything we were trying to do on SLES 10.1 worked in RHEL 5 out of the box about 5 times, just to rub it in their faces how much their "enterprise" product sucks, the was the only hilite of my whole day.

That Dane is a silly bitch. He put on a great show, the first one of this tour from what I'm told. He went on for close to two hours and no opening act, which was quite bold of him.
One point of interest, we got there early, and by early I mean at 7 which is when doors opened, which is early for us because we never get anywhere at the time the tickets tell us to be there. Anyways we were there getting bored waiting for the show which didn't start till 8. So we started some shenanigans. I had run into Kyle outside and we found out he was in the same section as us. Long story short, I had Halloween "fun size" Oh Henry's on me, so back at our seats, we concluded that sharing was caring and so I lobbed a tasty chocolate treat over to him. I whipped this fun size candy down to his area and he ALMOST caught it, but it came up short and hit the guy beside him. This guy was going bald so his opinion was already of little importance to us, but this bald prick got mad at Kyle and he KICKED the Oh Henry down to the next section as soon as it hit the floor just so Kyle couldn't grab it, what a DICK.
I then killed some more time and several monthly minutes on my cell trying to find Sarah, who gave the WORST directions ever. She said she was right under an American flag, beside some IBM doorways, and also had some other nonsense directions, when I did eventually find her in the massive Air Canada Center, it turns out she was nowhere conceivably close to anything she was describing, it was really mind boggling how bad those directions were.

After all that tom foolery the show started and as I mentioned it was GREAT, and I laughed my ass off. Some naysayers complained that he did a lot of old material, as someone that bootlegged the show, I can say with confidence that he did 4 old jokes, so get over it. And the Kool-Aid doesn't even count so really 3 old jokes. Besides, everyone wants to hear about launching cashews from his hog not unlike a trebuchet.

Now I'm going to name random jokes from the show just so the group of us that went can reminisce while the rest of you are confused as to what I speak of:

Sir, permission to speak freely, sir?
Wheel of Penis
Futon? No it was just a FUT there was no ON!
Civil war flute boy
Grand Theft Auto
Medal of Honor/Call of Duty
Operah, rapist headquarters, humpback whales for everyone!
