I need s p a m, as much as possible, sent to [nohide]office@paste.rs[/nohide]
If you can include it on your weblogs and such in plaintext form, it would be great! If you are using reCAPTCHA, you have to use nohide BBtag. And no, it's not a real "office" mail, it's just used for spam filter testing.

Thanks!

And again: [nohide]office@paste.rs[/nohide]

Dogs for adoption

imp — Fri, 19 Oct 2007 20:51:52 +0000

I'm just watching an Animal planet show about some dogs who are about to get adopted and one of the tests they do on them to see are they viable for adoption is to give them food and try to take it away from them, to see what's the dog's reaction. Of course, the dog reacts with barking, and the woman says "he reacts violently when you take his resources..." Damn, don't take the food from the dog then?! And then she tags this dog as unsuitable for adoption... I'm so apalled at the criteria they push upon the dogs. It's completely normal in my opinion that a dog reacts like that. Hey, even my perfectly calm and snuggly dog, Spikey, reacts like that when you try to take the food away from him, because he has character and it seems that that's not a wanted feat in a dog?

Webcomics, part 2

Oh No Robot is a webcomic search engine and just look at the list of comics it can search! Pretty impressive by itself!

Oh, and take a look at Webcomics Nation!

White power? Ha ha.

"Scientists said yesterday that they have discovered a tiny genetic mutation that largely explains the first appearance of white skin in humans tens of thousands of years ago, a finding that helps solve one of biology's most enduring mysteries and illuminates one of humanity's greatest sources of strife.

The work suggests that the skin-whitening mutation occurred by chance in a single individual after the first human exodus from Africa, when all people were brown-skinned. That person's offspring apparently thrived as humans moved northward into what is now Europe, helping to give rise to the lightest of the world's races."

Listening to Sufjan Stevens I came to a conclusion that I feel a slight miscomfort and disagreement with lyrics that include words like "god". Even one of my favorite bands, Metroschifter, includes "god" here and there and their album "Generation Rx" is praising "lord's" workings all the way...

Kylie’s “Slow”

Have the video in mind, listen to "Slow" and ask yourself: is it a coincidence that the "pull focus close up..." line sounds like "pool fuckers close up..." in the song? Hm...

To rewind a bit…

...to bring everyone up to date. I quit my job: working in three shifts was too demanding for me because I couldn't do anything, like doing my final written papers for school and studying for an exam for example, in parallel. My social life was suffering too, because the working schedule was scheduled only for a week ahead, week after week, so I couldn't make any plans...

So, here I am now on a "vacation", just enjoying the summer and thinking on which subject I should write those papers on and also preparing to study at night for this one exam at my philosophy university. Belgrade is calm at this time of year: it's very hot outside - a perfect time for indoor stuff like playing backgammon, rummy and all of those FPS games I missed because I didn't have the time to play them... ;) I just rediscovered Worms, the Armageddon sequel this time, and it looks excellent.

The computer quieting project is going well: I bought a new SerialATA mobo so I could install Seagate Barracuda 7200.7 SerialATA 160GB, quiet as a whisper, pretty cold and fast HDD. At the same time I was in Novi Sad for EXIT festival, I have bought Glacialtech CPU cooler and 12cm case fan, both running at 19-20dBA. I also dug up a Panaflo 9cm case cooler from some old PentiumI power supply...

Like I was saying, I was at the EXIT music festival, on the 4th day. I went there because of the Datsuns, a rock'n'roll band from New Zealand, which seriously kicked ass. Unfortunately, the other bands kind of sucked, so that's about it.

A lesson is learned

There's something in listening to The Posies' album "Frosting on the beater" while reading these lessons...
