 | Jul 14, 2003 - Move Complete | Spitfire  | 
| | We're back up and running!
If you didn't catch the note I posted about the move, or if you don't read demoni.ca regularily (who does, anyway?) - then you
may have been a little confused as to why RBlords was missing for the past week. In fact, it may have even bothered you so much that you stopped showing up at work and just
sat in your basement curled up in the fetal position screaming at the top of your lungs for hours until someone called 911 and you were rushed to the hospital, where they informed you
that it was ok - RBlords would be back. And here it is, in all it's forbidden glory.
We are now part of the Demoni.ca LAN - Unit3 was kind enough to allow me to plug the server
into his connection in Regina for a nominal fee (two diamond cutters, one cobra clutch). Does this mean we have to be particularily nice to them now? Well, I suppose within reason - afterall Unit3 and
his gang can now easily 'unplug' RBlords if I get them too pissed off. More importantly, I was forced to sign a contract agreeing to the following:
As part of the Demoni.ca LAN, Rblords must now...
- Suck worse. Please place your suck-knob no lower than a 7.5 setting - so as not to upset or offend Unit3 in any way.
- Limit all porno displayed on site to include only male homo-erotic photography, so as not to upset or offend Hellsh0k in any way.
- Become a completely racially-diverse weblog. Spitfire is a whiny bitch and his hatred of black people must come to an end - so as not to upset the lizard king in any way.
- Promote the superiority of the asian people, namely their obviously superior intellect and impulse-tracker abilities, so as not to upset or offend soul_d in any way.
- Disclose the exact location of the flagpole which was 'lost' at the Canada Day party, so as not to upset or offend redbandana and her mom in any way.
- Permanantly desist from attempting to engage in any and all sexual activities with the webmaster of Katyazikstan, so as not to upset or offend Randy in any way.
So I guess fun is no longer an option for this site (was it ever?).
Time for me to dig up some contect matching the above stipulations - I'll be back with an update later. In the meantime, if you notice anything broken on this site please let me know...

 | Jul 03, 2003 - Problems.. | Spitfire  | 
| | Ok, now just a super-quick update...I got (another) call from my ISP last night regarding my over-use of bandwidth over the past couple months. This really pisses me
off because I wish they'd just put caps on downloading at each individual modem like they do in Regina with Access Cable. Now that I'm sharing a place with
Blue4130 I'll have to start watching how much I download.
Of course, I *have* been downloading a ridiculous amount of files lately - about 80gigs downloaded in the past month according to shaw, and almost the same
uploaded. The 'limit' they tell me is 20, yet they don't call until it exceeds 30. I might point out that the basic SaskTel service doesn't have a limit - but it does have
a fairly significant upload, and download cap compared to Shaw. Perhaps its time to actually pay for an upgraded package..
So anyways, if you notice RBlords 'dissapear' one day this may be why, but don't worry it'll be back. Aside from this problem, I've noticed that some people are having
problems getting to Photogeek as well - but I think I just fixed that. It might take a day to propegate through the dirty internet though.
I also forgot to mention last night that I saw Terminator 3 last night - great movie! I don't think I'd place it on the
same level as T2, but it is definately worth seeing. For those who don't know, this was not directed by James Cameron - so the general 'feel' of the movie has changed slightly. However
I was impressed at how much effort they put into making it mesh well with the past 2 movies, and they actually pulled together a decent plot. So, if you like T2 go see T3 its worth it.

 | Jul 02, 2003 - Have you got it yet?? | Spitfire  | 
| | Just a short update as I am in Saskatoon for a few days here :P.
Redbandana's Canada day party went over really well - I had a great time and the weather was awesome. Got some swimming in, some drinking, and of course some
drunken vandalism. Well, the drunken vandalism was mostly Katya, but I suppose I need to take some of the blame seeing as how she is such an impressable minor and obviously looks up to me as a role model. soul_d and
myself drove down in the Bel-Air - and as he mentioned on his site - we listened to Whitesnake most of the way. Good times.
So I got back to work today to find out that my boss is quitting as of Aug 15th - that's pretty big news because I really get along with him well and I'm a little scared of who will be replacing him (although I'm not sure
who it will be quite yet). So this could be interesting - and could make my job more interesting/difficult depending on who gets to sit in that chair. They also hired for Scott's position - but they ended up taking
an internal application afterall. I question why they would even bother listing it externally, but hey why not - its taxpayer dollars!
Tomorrow night (10:00PM) I leave with Dawn and her dad to make the hike to Grey Owl's Cabin. It's a 20km hike and we're going to
do it all at once, so it should be a fun, tiring day. The funnest part is going to be carrying the backpacks full of food, water, tents and sleeping bags for the 2 nights of wilderness living - good thing I'm in the computer industry
and therefore so used to taxing physical labour!
I wasn't going to post any content today - but I have a few comics building up, so I'll post one of them. I've been getting a lot of comic submissions that, quite frankly, aren't comics -
so I've been hesitant to put them up. Your time would probably be better spent looking at furniture pr0n or something...

baaaah.......can't wait for some actual vacation time (which isn't going to be much this year). Everyone is invited out to Memorial Lake on the July 18th weekend - I'll be going up sometime around noon
on friday so you can catch a ride with me if you'd like. I'll be bringing the boat and the tube, so drunken watersports are in order. Other than that its weddings, weddings, weddings all the way until the hot tub
party on Aug 8th - I hope you all plan on at least stopping by for one night (friday or saturday mainly).
Anyhow, I'm up too late...so I'm going to bed. If you're bored, I suppose you could go check out a real site.
More cheers, more beers - thats it thats all!

 | Jun 20, 2003 - Downtime | Spitfire  | 
| | Whoops...had about a day of downtime there (if anyone noticed). My ip changed for the first time in over a year! Anyhow, should be back to normal now, and since
I'm delivering this message I'd might as well do a full update with it.
What a busy, busy summer this year! I have arrived at the point in my life where, one by one (or two by two, I suppose), many of my friends are getting married. And as nice as that is IT SURE
FUCKS UP MY SUMMER! I mean sheesh, I only have one opportunity to use my boat between now and August 15th! Hmmm well I'm sure this 'trend' will wear off over the next 10 years sometime. In addition to
this my partner in crime at work is leaving so I'm stuck with having to hold the fort down until they re-hire his position, and *I* train him. This means no hollidays for me until mid-July at the earliest. But don't
worry Kujo, I can still swing July 11th for YOUR WEDDING :P.
Okay, now onto the content (which is why you all read this site anyhow - right?). First of all, check out the new comic today, it's truly
delicious.
I haven't posted a video on here for a very long time, so I suppose it's overdue. So have a look at this sweet cigar commercial, before checking
out this awesome x-ray.
Hmmm - wow, I'm actually running out of things to say/post - so that's all the content for today!
Last but not least - here's a blonde moment for everyone to share.
|
|
Now to the important stuff - it's Blue4130's birthday part today (his actual bday was yesterday) and it's going to be at the Scuz, so if you'd like
to join the RBlords crew there, we'll be there around 9:00, or slightly before. Rumor has it that YC may even grace us with his presence tonight, so it will
indeed be a special night. Shit - that sounded way too gay. How about "Sounds like YCs going to be there - party at the slut factory, all the boobs you can eat". Yeah thats better.
And that's it!

 | Jun 15, 2003 - Ok, time for the _June_ Update | Spitfire  | 
| | I guess I'd better do at least one update for June - so this will be it. Why am I being so lazy? It's summer, and there are better things to do! Plus,
I figured I would give my best shot at staying on the bottom of Unit3's new gateway page.
However, soul_d informed me that this was pretty much impossible, because that title is already held by mrp and probably
isn't going to change anytime soon!
 |
Anyhow, onto business. What's new? JayB had his 'tron' party last weekend - if you don't know what that is, it's time
you watched the movie Fubar. It was indeed good times - a lot of shotgunned Pilsner, some two-liners, a
burned lawn chair and even some 10 speed bikes ramped over the fire. Blue4130 and myself
learned how difficult it is to carry a sixer of Pil on a 10 speed bike with no brakes - Larmal complained a lot about the bot flies he contracted from his trip to Budapest, and YC
partied hard for a couple hours, then dissapeared into the night never to be seen again. Once again - good times.
I can't stress enough how much you need to check out this link. Maybe it's one of those things
that only *I* find funny, but at the very least I think that DP needs to check it out. For the rest of you, check out this awesome mailbox!
Hmm...what else? There's a new comic today - so check that out.

For those of you who watcher survivor and got really cheesed off when they pixelated out all the nudity, you will finally have your chance to see Jenna and Heidi nude. That's right, looks like
they will be posing for playboy (big surprise). Man, who needs to win the contest?!? This just proves once again that if you're hot, getting rich really aint that hard! Also - if you're in the army, getting laid
aint that hard either!
That's it for now - sorry for the lack of updates, but don't expect much more until the end of summer. I'm back on the 1 update a month diet...w00t!

 | May 30, 2003 - Watch out SARS - here comes WEST NILE! | Spitfire  | 
| | No updates? WHAT? No content? WHAT?
Ok ok, I'm slacking. What can I say - spring is here. The weather is nice, the mosquitos are glorious and Dog Pound and Audiophile
are no longer around to cramp my style. Also Blue4130 moved into my basement suite right now and is currently keeping all of the ants/spiders/millipedes company. Amongst all of those good times,
I also managed to find time (and money) to rototill the back yard, install underground sprinklers and then lay down sod. All work and no play makes Spitfire a hungry boy.
Another piece of news in my life is that my partner at work (that sounds so freakin gay) has accepted another job with the corporation, so I am now the most senior P/A in my section. W00t - that means a better desk and a lot
MORE POWER. Mooohahaha. Anyhow, they will be re-hiring his position, and that lucky new employee gets to work with me - so before all of you start clawing for your phone to see when the posting comes up, it won't be for a
couple weeks. My boss has expressed his concern in wanting to find a sexy blonde to fill the position - so I think that _SPACE_ should apply because she is one
of those things (unless she recently dyed her hair).
So...I already mentioned that Dog Pound and Audiophile left for BC last sunday - you can read all about their
adventures (more or less) on their respective webpages. Since I'm a bit too lazy to type out the links - check out the side bar at the bottem. It was truley sad to see Audiophile finally
departing - it's hard to believe that he was only here for 3 years (almost to the day). I'll miss our Taco Slime lunch trips and all of his fine audio advice. I guess this just means that we all have another excuse for a big roadtrip sometime to
visit.
Let's talk some dates here - call me pathetic, but I've already pencilled down the dates for this years anual Hot Tub party - this is the anual event which soul_d started years back.
How did it end up at my place?
|
|
Well, as the party grew every year I noticed soul_d was becoming more stressed out over extra people showing up, and people making
noise out on the street, etc...so I thought I'd give him a break last year and let him enjoy himself. In addition, I had a new house and wanted to break it in (along with my new deck) so it worked out great. ANYWAYS, the date this year
is going to be Aug. 8th and 9th - so make sure your free those days and plan on stopping by, it should be a great time.
But that's enough blablabla - time for some content. We have a new comic today that you should all have a look at. After that - in the weird world news category - have a look at the new
world's largest cookie. Mmmmm good stuff.
 |
Kujo figured it was time to send in a shitpile of content....so bear with me here, I'll post most of it now and some later. First of all - for all of you case modders out there, ever thought of
building a fish tank into your case? Or maybe turn your computer into a planter?!? I can't decide if that dorky, or just
plain retarded.
What a great day for environmentalists everywhere! Apparently some company has designed a Disposable DvD which expired over 48 hours - in an effort
to eliminate the 'stress' of renting movies.
And last but not least....eek...I just don't know what to think about these except that, for some reason, I can see Fredish wearing one. I wonder what the hell
they look like under a shirt?!?
|
Whoa - take a look at that picture up there and tell me it doesn't make you dizzy! Click on it for a bigger sample - makes me feel drunk.
Ok THATS IT.
Time to get back to work - things are picking up now that we're losing one of 'the guys'.
So somebody go stir something up on the RBlords Discussion Forums. Maybe poke fun at YC because
he's too busy to visit this site anymore.
Also check out the Cam Portal - you can see my basement by looking at the Photogeek cam!
