Ack, Cool, So What?

Wednesday, June 1st, 2011

Today I had a typical cycle of events when presented with a new technology to implement.

Ack, I’m in over my head. I’m an imposter, never will figure this out.

Cool. This makes sense now, after chasing down many different related pieces of info and absorbing it all, letting it seep into my brain.

So what? This is at the core just the same boring IT shit repackaged in a new way.

The next week will be the usual pain trying to implement, tripping over a myriad of incompatibilities punctuated by outright lies in the documentation, reworking it all at least three times before settling on a close-enough working solution. Fun stuff.

F*ck you, pay me.

Get. Things. In. Writing.

I don’t think so, Tim.

howdy blogger, first of all thank you for setting up a nice blog like %BLOGINTITLE%. i truly hate the fact that bloggers these days focus more on making money and stuff their blogs with irritating adverts.. i liked the way you have arranged all of the content here. are you on facebook or any social networking web-site. i would enjoy to connect with you and know you properly. cheers

Yeah, right. Nice blog comment spam failure there, bud.

Our governments are spineless, our business leaders are criminals, we are no longer dupe, the press is a pack of lies, money is immoral and believing in anything is a sign of naivety at best and the onset of mental illness at worst.

Where did this wonderful accurate and concise summary of our current jaded view of the world come from?

A piece about the lost panic years of fearing UFO invasion…

Love it.

Definition of Insanity

Insanity:
Doing the same thing over and over,
hoping for a different outcome.

Calgary = Charlie Brown, 
SW Ring Road = The Football, 
Tsuu T’ina Nation = Lucy 

You already know how this will end.
