Being Thankful
Visualised by archtomato On Sunday, June 25, 2006 at 5:30 Hrs | Minimum B.S.
Ok ok,
The Last few weeks have been about as pleasant for me as (pick one):
a. using a rabid porcupine to scratch my back. b. having a head that looks exactly like a soccer ball and living in Brazil. c. being Darth Vader about an hour before he gets the helmet.
That’s because i have just met my project deadline. Its over now and completely successful. For the first time in many months now, i can breathe through my nose again. For those of you thinking about the same plight that you are in, I’d say its worth it (now that its over, i can start talking like a saint).
I’m also thankful that my particular skill set includes writing win32 applications in C# and troubleshooting server inconsistencies. I could have been born with the skill for painting miniature pyramids on bottle caps. I’m lucky and thankful for it.
I’m thankful that I can reach almost every part of my body in case I get an itch. Except for the middle of my back, which is the only place I ever get one. But I’m not going to quibble today. I’m thankful.
I’m thankful for my kind neighbour from the top floor who shares his wireless bandwidth with me every time i log in with my sister’s laptop. He has been a great help although he doesn’t know it. I have renamed his connection profile as "Frenly Neighbour".
I’m also thankful that i do not have to go through operations to "re-click" my knee caps. Tok has been through an operation and is going through a painful ordeal. God Bless.
I’m sure there are a more things I should be thankful for, but I take all of those things for granted. And the privilege of doing so is perhaps the thing I am most thankful for.
To my fellow readers, have a great "Monday blues" tomorrow. When was the last time you thought about what you would want to be thankful about?
Cheers

Grammar and Spelling
Visualised by archtomato On Monday, June 19, 2006 at 12:29 Hrs | Minimum B.S.
Ok ok,
My blog is a writing that doesn’t go through a professional editor. That means plenty of grammar and punctuation wrecks for you to enjoy. I blame the public education system and Phua Chu Kang.
The only reason I dare writing this blog is because I have absolutely no sense of embarrassment. Most people would be horrified at the prospect of proving their ignorance to thousands (or maybe hundreds) of readers. My attitude is more along the lines of I have thousands of readers? Ok ok make it a dozen readers.
If you notice a grammar, punctuation, or spelling error in my blog, and you absolutely can’t control your urge to tell me, please follow this process:
- Research the ancient Indian method for sending smoke signals.
- Set your couch on fire.
- Use Guns
Or if you prefer, just enjoy the blog as if it were an e-mail from your friend who thinks he’s clever but isn’t as clever as he thinks.
Cheers ps: Ghana Kicked Ass !!! Technorati tags: Archtomato

Spirit

Spirit.
In every language in all the realms, heaven and earth, in every time and every place, the word has a ring of strength and determination.
It is the hero’s strength, the mother’s resilence , and the poor man’s armour.
It cannot be broken, and it cannot be taken away.
Cheers

Uncyclopedia

Ok ok,
Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia is a reknown website. It is written collaboratively by volunteers, allowing articles to be changed by anyone with access to the website. In January 2005 Jonathan Huang launched another website called “Uncyclopedia.”
Its statement says that the mission of Uncyclopedia is to provide the world’s misinformation in the least redeeming and most searingly sarcastic and humourous way possible. Therefore, it frequently deviates from this goal, and produces humorous articles on all topics, most of which are not necessarily satire.
Check it out here
Cheers

Men are from Earth & Women are from Bones

Ok ok,
Assuming we don’t look at the physicality and other obvious factors do you know a big difference between men and women. Well women can slap makeup, put perfumes, wear wigs and maybe get into g-strings to look good.
Men? No self respecting man will wear G-strings, Ricky Martin excluded.
We have nothing. That’s why over the years, we have found alternatives. We climb mountains, lay railway tracks, learn cooking, build bridges and even go to the moon.
You have any idea how hard it is to build a bridge? Its tedious and it kills more people working on it than it does if it were to collapse. And going to the moon, we go there to make a statement to our counterparts. I can bet with you, when a astronaut touches down, he’s gonna go the his lady and brag, "So … you saw me up there?"
So dark the con of men ….
Cheers

Fact File Archtomato Archtomato . OxyMoron . Laughing at Gilded Butterflies Archtomato works in the IT security industry and has managed to convince his bosses for the past 10 years that his best work is yet to come.
Archtomato is a coffee nut, a photographer without focus, a traveler who can't read maps, a diver who floats all too easily and a champion of world peace.
He is an avid practitioner of the dark side of the force; admires Chuck Norris, Paris Hilton and collects vintage Batman comics. Just like the Horizon, Time Dilation, Flying pigs, Tax Reliefs and possibly, the "Opposition", he believes he is more of a concept than a corporeal being.
Archtomato believes that the true nature of man is decided in the battle between the conscious mind and the desires of the subconscious and that the evil of man's subconscious is often too strong to resist. The only way to win is to deny it battle.
He now lives in a world of pollution, profanity, adolescence, smelly beavers, zits, herpes, broccoli, racism, ozone depletion, sexism, conscription, yellow bananas, stupid people, nightmares, dog whisperers,Gamma Ray Bursts, Nuke Baddies and sings badly but regularly in the bathroom.
Tomatoes were sacrificed in the making of this website, contents and for the continual existence of its owner. Rss 2.0 | Atom | Main
