I have found a kinda semi direction I wanna go with this blog... May I introduce you all to Ernie's House of Whoop Ass here.
Its not gonna be a copy or anything but I think I'm gonna start giving out links to interesting things that I find online. Mainly because I find LOTS of stuff online in my day to day life, and maybe there are people out there like me that like the weird and crazy stuff I like.
Stay tuned for the changes.

Couple o' Updates
First things first... Use the poll on the left to vote for your choice for US president.
Here we are at another week... Some interesting things went on this weekend. My work is filled with retards I'm now convinced of it. I missed a shift on Sunday that I was told would no longer be on the schedule due to some training I was supposed to go do. My manager was to change the shift from 230-1100 to something that would fit the training schedule. Well that change never came... Oh well. While I could use the money being a full time student and all it was worth it cause I got to spend the afternoon and evening with my dad before he had to go back to the hospital. An added benefit was also that I got to visit with family that came in for a surprise visit on the weekend. So not all was lost.
A friend of mine gets a new house this weekend. I'm stoked, no more idiots stomping out all the fun stuff. He currently lives with a family member and while they are blood related they don't act like it. The family member that is not my friend acts like a crying sniffling little bitch. He cries about EVERYTHING. One of my favorite examples is TV Volume. Now I'm almost 100% certain that my DJing in past years has dwindled my hearing a little bit, although I do like to actually HEAR what I'm watching and I also like talking during shows sometimes, so I like a little extra volume. That being said if I'm over at my friends house and we are watching some TV the volume is usually pretty decent, unless... said family member/roommate is home, in which case we run into two problems. The first being that his massive fucking home theater is cranked up so loud that we can't hear the TV on our floor below, or said family member is being his usual bitch self and is sleeping and our volume has to be no louder than a whisper. Lame.
There are many other examples of this family members douche-baggery. But aren't really worth writing here... Unless somehow I was able to get this website on his computer so he could read what I really think about him. How great would that be?
Anyways, come Friday my friend is out of his nightmare and into his own house. Good times should be had by all.
I find myself in class right now being bored. I brought my laptop today to get some software setup that I want to use at home. I'm done the only lecture I have for the day and for the life of me I can't seem to get into the study mood. I'm ahead of the class in content and my grades are in the high to mid range 90's so I'm comfortable but exams can and will pose a problem if I can't get into study mode. Anyone got any motivation?
-Insert 2 hour gap here- (Haha.)
OK so its been two hours and I've had 2 cups of coffee and finished a chapter of studying including all the related assignments for said chapter. God I love coffee. For me today its almost time to go home. I need to stop at work today and see about a schedule for this week... I wonder what it is... haha. Oh well, guess I find out soon.

I hate long weeks...
Short weeks spoil me... Pretty much to the point that when the next 5 day week starts I'm dead by Tuesday... Like today... I feel like hammered shit. I suppose it has to do with my weekend being spent sick, staying out late and working. Anyways thats not really what I wanted to talk about today.
November 4th 2008 is set to be a date when history is made, I'm positive of it. 2 weeks from now when the United States go to the polls I hope they make the right choices. I live in Canada so I don't get to have any sort of official say in the matter but if I did get my chance my support would go to Barack Obama. This is odd choice for me because if I was living in the states I would be, or at least my political views would be labeled as Republican. As a matter of fact I mostly agree with the Republican general attitude when it comes to running the US. But I can't in good conscience, even a little, support a man like John McCain or his running mate Sarah Palin. Their campaign has been nothing but slander and negative commentary towards Barack Obama. Calling him a terrorist was the straw that broke the camels back in my opinion.
I'm going to continue this post later I think as I have to head to class.

That was exciting...
Not really... After only 2 days my blog was flagged and locked for being a "possible spam blog", I really don't think anyone is reading this yet and anyone that was probably isn't anymore due to the huge gap of time that the blog was locked.
Anyways, on to the beef. I was driving up to school today for a lecture and I couldn't help but thinking how incredibly stupid some drivers are. We have a major secondary highway running through our city which in places turns into a 8 lane freeway. I was cruising along at a brisk 120kph listening to music enjoying the smooth flow of traffic, when out of nowhere a silver Honda Civic cuts me off and slows down, forcing me to put on my brakes and wonder what is going on. As it turns out NOTHING is going on, this dumb broad in the civic just wanted to be in the fast lane but do almost 20kph slower that everyone else. Now I drive a little red sports car so what did I do? Yeah that's right, I dropped a gear, switched lanes, sped past her, got back into my fast lane and away I went. After getting off on my exit I was stopped a red light and beside me up pulls, low and behold the silver civic, with honestly one of the most 'sour' looking women driving I have ever seen. "Weird", I thought to myself, "It appears we are going the same direction". After the light turned green I had to wait a second or two for the car ahead to turn left but by then the silver civic had gained a pretty big lead on me and was far ahead. Anyone that knows me will know that I usually (especially when I'm driving my car) don't drive slow, so now with a nice huge empty road ahead of myself and about 4 blocks before I have to turn left to get to school I gunned it, hard. I was probably doing 80 or 90kph within 3 or 4 seconds and sure enough on comes the left hand turn signal of the silver sour civic. At these speeds I usually think to myself "Ok don't panic, they see you coming and will wait till your past" I usually think this because my car is pretty loud when its wound up to 7000RPM and I'm usually moving VERY fast. When I saw her blinker turn on I was doing more than double her speed and only 4 or 5 car lengths behind her. Needless to say within the next 2 or 3 seconds I would have been far past her leaving her free to switch lanes at will. but oooooh no. She decided that switching lanes NOW was her best course of action. So what do I do? I slam on my brakes, now I have VERY VERY VERY good brakes and ABS together they stop my car FAST. To me it almost felt like I had hit her. My brakes snapped my speed down to 10kph or lower in what felt like half a second. I open my eyes, take a breath and check to see if my insides are still inside of me then I look up to make sure I didn't hit her. Relief! Success! Rejoice! No accident today... Wait! Whats that?! Anger! Fury! The stupid cow in the silver civic has slowed down and is giving me the middle finger and shaking her head at me! I'm gonna pause this right now and give you a quick recap of the events.
Silver civic cuts me off and slows down on the free way forcing me to cut around her and continue on.
Speed limit 110kph - My Speed 120kph - Her speed 100-105kph
After taking the exit and waiting at a red light the civic pulls up beside me and pulls ahead while I wait for a car to turn. I gun it and I'm quickly doing twice her speed when she cuts me off forcing me to slam on my brakes. I then get the finger and shake of the head from her.
Speed limit 100kph - My speed 90kph - Her speed 50-60kph
Ok so now as you can see I'm doing UNDER the speed limit still when she cuts me off. Its not my fault she drives a car with no balls and takes her 20 minutes to get to the speed limit. So when is she giving me the bird for cutting me off? Who knows, maybe she thinks it's her God given right to change lanes as she pleases, when she pleases. This however is NOT the end of the story. Now that I'm behind little miss sour c*nt it tuns out 3 blocks later that we are turning the same way yet again. Keep in mind here that even though we both needed the same turning lane she had hundreds upon hundreds of feet in which to do it after I passed her. Anyways, after we get into the turning lane I'm behind her and I pull up my usual distance and sit there waiting for the light. Then I look up and she is giving me the finger and waving for me to back up. To which I think to myself "You dumb hoe I'm not moving anywhere" So... I creep up a little bit closer to her car, now I see her either mouthing or screaming in her car "Back Up Asshole" to me. Turning light flashes green and she is still turned toward me not paying attention so, here is one of the fun parts I rev my engine HARD with makes her eyes go wide and I just lay on the horn and I'm not talking *honk* *honk* here I'm talking a full on 7 second blast of pure ear drum shattering (at least at 7:30am) nastiness. So she turns around and continues on, by this time I'm having fun again because I know I have some time to really mess with her. So I got right on her ass. We are driving slowly and I'm trying to see how close I can get to her bumper all the while she is waving me back screaming and still tossing that finger around. Now some of you may or may NOT know that once you piss me off I become a real asshole and that's exactly what I did next. The road we were on split into 2 lanes allowing her to change lanes and avoid me. Well no... for me this was not over. I sped up cut her off and slammed on my brakes. Hard enough to make them squeal. Then I cut back into my previous lane slowed down got beside her looked over and with a smile and a wink started nudging my car closer to hers, basically squeezing her off the road. My plan went a little to far when I heard her tires start to rub the concrete curb and she panicked and drove up onto the grass. I quickly sped away hoping she didn't have time to get my plate.
Now that I think about it tho, fuck her. she almost caused an accident got pissed at the wrong person and was acting like a complete douche bag. A little road rash on her brand new rims is a small price to pay for pissing me off. Anyways, that's it for this morning, I have a class starting now.

In class.
Well here we are, the first real post on this blog. As I write this short little update I find myself on a break from class reading a textbook on computers. As it so happens its a book on A+ and everything that has to do with studying for those exams. I already have my A+ certification but its always good to go back and look at the book again as a refresher. I'm just currently reading the chapter on DOS, Windows 9x/Me and Startup disks. I wish I could say that I'm learning lots of new things but its not really the case. I know most of this stuff already, meaning I'm looking at DOS commands and remembering my childhood. I dunno how many of you remember using DOS but to open files and launch programs you had to issue text based commands. It kinda looked like this;
You start at a prompt like so;
C:\
now if you type a command in this case 'dir'
C:\dir
and hit enter you get a list that looks like;
09/09/2008 11:37 AM Games
09/09/2008 12:42 PM Programs
01/20/2008 09:12 AM Office
09/11/2008 10:28 AM Internet
09/12/2008 06:17 AM Documents
2 File(s) 1,437 bytes
5 Dir(s) 34,989,518,848 bytes free
C:\
So then it puts you back at the prompt and you get to go along your merry way... Fun huh? Needless to say it was quite a bit different back then. But it was how it was done, I remember and I still got it memorized just because of how many times I had typed it. How to launch a program called X-Wing... yup the same X-Wing from Star Wars. Great game. I loved it. The command was.
c:\sencha\programs\games\xwing xwing.exe
That launched my game... and boy how I loved it. (I didn't use the name Sencha I used my real name in the old DOS days... haha)
Anyways, thats my blog for my school break and getting some fond memories from reading a old textbook.
Till next time,
