OwlManAtt’s Blog

For anyone who cares, I’ve just put the code for Owlog 0.90 up in the files section. It only contains two small updates, but it improves the blog a bit. Now we have plenty more entries logged in the ‘Old posts’ bit, and instead of replacing \n with
it is replaced with

. Much nicer.

And also relating the the blog…I’d like to take a moment to shoot almost every person who has posted a comment. I just read through them, and boy are there some stupid and random people about. One person I’d like to single out is the moron who said EV1 is awesome for bending over like a good little bitch and taking it in the ass from SCO in a blog entry talking about American Idol sucking. Way to stay on topic, dipshit!

And today I also read some random guy’s blog post about the FBI and USSS agents raiding his home and taking nine computers, his tivo, his xbox, and his copy of ‘music to massage to’ in relation to the HL2 source theft. They did this because he had lived with a suspicious individual a while back.

And let me tell you, if the FBI ever came knocking on my door and wanted my computers, they sure as hell wouldn’t get to walk right in and take them. Oh no sir!

First, I’d demand my lawyer before they even touched anything. Secondly, I would demand multiple disk images made on all harddrives before they were removed from the house. And I want them made in front of me and my lawyer. And some random drunk off the street. If they didn’t and they ‘found’ something on them, I would cry ‘bullshit! You planted that!’ and cause hell.

This also brings me to some other thoughts. According to the patriot act, ‘hacking*’ is a terrorist activity, and if you’re accused of it you have no rights. So the FBI and USSS could of walked right in, beat the shit from him, took his crap, and sent him off to Cuba instead of ask nicely and have him comply like a baby. I don’t like the idea of that.

And this patriot act. I don’t like it at all. ‘We need to be tough on this shit!’ is not a valid argument for it. Being ‘tough’ on ‘this shit’ hurts innocents, the very people the law is supposed to protect. Don’t reelect Bush. I’m betting if we do, this sort of crap will continue. Why not just move to China?

And while I’m on it, don’t elect Kerry either. We need a leader with a pair (not literally, Hillary) and a solid stance on … …everything. Or at least a solid stance on ONE thing.

And I’m about ranted out for now.

Congratulations, Alfonso Cuarn, you’ve ruined a great work! For those who do not know (or haven’t given enough of a shit to look it up), Alfonso Cuarn, henceforth known as Chickenshit, directed the third Harry Potter movie.

And boy, does it suck. Almost as much as the last two disasters. When I heard they had gotten a new director, I though something along the lines of ‘Thank god, they’ve fired that shitty director. Maybe now we can get something worth my eight bucks!’.

Why does it suck? First and foremost, the plot was clipped in all of the wrong places, and then to kill an extra five minutes they picked some random shit up off the cuttingroom floor and tacked it on. I mean, why end the movie properly? Wasn’t like the ending had anything important, LIKE THE DAMN HOGSMEAD PERMISSION SLIP FROM SIRUS FUCKING BLACK. Who needs that explained? Sure as hell not I!

Then we have a bunch of other things Chickenshit did. Like in the first scene, we see Harry reading by wandlight under the covers at Number 4 Privet Drive. Problem? HE’S IN VIOLATION OF THE RESTRICTION OF MAGIC FOR UNDERAGED WIZARDS AND THE INTERNATIONAL WIZARDING SECRECY ACT. Forget about those two MAJOR laws, Chickenshit? Guess so. Whoops!

How about when Hagrid was showing the hypopogrifs? There were THREE in the book. The movie shows one. Why? Pure god damn laziness. It would of taken no extra time in the movie.

Another thing — What the hell were the flying black sheets? Those sure as fuck weren’t dementors. Those don’t fucking FLY. They GLIDE. Not soar around and chase people on a broom. They also have HOODS that they can lower when they kiss you. The whole CONCEPT behind the damn demantor was the hood. When one lowers its hood, that means YOU ARE FUCKED. But these had no hoods! How does one know when they are about to have it in the bum if the dementor has no hood!?!

We even had a bit of romance! Hermonie and Ron. Why do I have a problem with this? Besides the fact that the pair of them were at odds for the whole book over Hermonie’s cat, the book also makes it a point to stay away from the romance. Crapped on that too, Chickenshit.

And once again, the dementors. In the quidditch bit, they come on to the field. Chickenshit so nicely has them FLYING AROUND in the damn CLOUDS. As I’ve said before, DEMENTORS DO NOT FUCKING FLY.

Harry got his Firebolt at the end of the movie. The package also contained one of Buckbeak’s feathers. Would it of done any harm to do this at the PROPER time? Harry is supposed to get the broom as a Christmas present from an anonymous source. Why not? Who knows. Chickenshit’s lack of logic strikes again!

Yea. Overall, the movie sucked.

As of this moment, I am free from the evils of St. Aedan’s School. No more, ever again. And it feels DAMN good. I won’t bore you with details of the ceremony, beyond the fact that it was a real fuckup. But you do get to hear about my new STUFF.

The awards I got were a Presidential Education Excellence Award (I must of done something right), the St. Something-Or-Other Computer award, which was a nice $40 O’Reilly UNIX book, the class president award, and my Diploma. Also got my C book back from John.

Then we went to lunch, where I was given $200 cash and a Nokia 1100 cellular phone. Unlimited minutes on weekends and after 9, free nationwide, free mobile-2-mobile, AIM and shit, blablabla. Just set up voicemail. No one to call, though. =X

Yea. K.

This is it folks, I am done with classes at St. I’m-a-stupid-fuck-and-no-one-can-spell-my-name’s School. No more bullshit from teachers who manage to have 90% of their class fail, no more shit from teacher’s who think the intercom is a talking fucking CAT, and NO MORE FUCKING SCHOOLBUS FULL OF FUCKING MORONS. =)

Now, class night, which includes a dance for 7th and 8th grade, needs some details here. Some good shit happened, and since this is MY fucking blog, I get to post it. So HA.

We kick off the dinner, whee. This night of columbus comes in looking like an idiot with a cape and a sword, and I had to leave the gym to keep from laughing in the poor man’s face. Blablabla, and we skip to my speech, the presidentail address. It went off without a hitch, thanks. Skip to the end of the dinner, where the parents leave, and the fun starts.

We had a closet door open up tonight. People had been talking, but…Yea. Chris was dancing with Ben. I could go on for a bit here, but I won’t.

We also had Joey of 7th grade try and kiss Jonae. Needless to say, she slapped him around a bit. A few minutes later, she informed us she was ‘tramatized’.

The dance bit was meh. Nothing too exciting or unexpected from me. Danced with a few of my homies, ya know? =P

Thinking back on tonight, I have but two regrets. One being the fact that I didn’t get to help beat the shit out of joey, as I know happened. Fucking with my homies, bitch…

Da.

w00t, last two days of school, then I don’t have to ever put up with any of those dumbass teachers again. I’ll post some shit tomorrow about some people, K? Too busy right now to type it all.

In other news, I made myself a set of Slackware 9.1 CDs. Might install it on Kato just for shits and giggles. Meh.
