so nothing horrible happened in SA... VIC on the other had... jsut read the update on the news... 76 confirmed dead and 10 critical... rather large areas of that state have been on fire, or still are on fire... i'm really glad we didn't get any fires/fire bugs yesterday, and feel really sorry for the people in vic who have had them...

hmmmm

2009-02-06T12:52:41Z

so, the weather here is going to be horrible tomorrow... worse then ash wednesday... hot with strong winds... not gonna be good...

i'm not likely to be online tomorrow, so if people wanna touch base at all, feel free to call me... if i don't answer or if it doens't ring, if you can send me a message, and i'll get back in contact with you... (reception is bad here at the best of times)... please note that i can't currently access my voice mail, so leaving a message there is no good cause i won't get it until tuesday at the best...

it's kinda scary, as meany of you who have heard me rant know, my dad and step mum haven't got a fire plan worked out... up until 3 weeks ago they couldn't even decide if they would stay or go... so yeah...

this gets on my nerves

2008-09-09T13:21:39Z

this is the easiest way I can think of for letting people know... contacting me by internet means is no longer going to be an option for a while... due to some issues where I'm living the internet access is being removed, and I have no idea how long for...

if you do need to contact me, and don't have another way to do so, i will have intermittent access to email and LJ when I am at other locations where I can use the internet... I just can't say how often that will be...

So annoyed about it...

YOU KNOW YOU ARE LIVING IN 2006 when...

2006-02-07T01:49:16Z

1. You accidentally enter your password on the microwave.

2. You haven't played solitaire with real cards in years.

3. You have a list of 15 phone numbers for your family of 3.

4. You e-mail the person who works at the desk next to you.

5. Your reason for not staying in touch with friends and family is that they don't have e-mail addresses.

6. You pull up in your own driveway and use your cell phone to see if anyone is home to help you carry in the groceries.

7. Every commercial on television has a web site at the bottom of the screen.

8. Leaving the house without your cell phone, which you didn't have the first 20 or 30 (or 60) years of your life, is now a cause for panic and you turn around to go and get it.

10. You get up in the morning and go on line before getting your coffee.

11. You start tilting your head sideways to smile. :)

12. You're reading this and nodding and laughing.

13. Even worse, you know exactly to whom you are going to forward this message.

14. You are too busy to notice there was no #9 on this list.

15. You actually scrolled back up to check that there wasn't a #9 on this list.

AND NOW U R LAUGHING at yourself.

Oh Great Cthulhu!

I have been an extremely assiduous devotee this year.

In January, I stopped mfu from defiling Lovecraft's grave (-20 points). In April, I prepared an ocean voyage to R'lyeh (200 points). In March, I sacrificed unmercifulelf to Cthulhu (500 points). In May, I fed whiteadelphi to a Shoggoth (250 points). In June, I called down the wrath of Yog-Sothoth upon vasillis_childe (65 points). Last week, I rammed a ship into you (sorry Cthulhu!) (-1000 points).

In short, I have been very bad (-5 points) and deserve to be fed to the ghouls.

Your humble and obedient servant,
Webfoot

You are Bahamut!
You scored 11 good or evil, 9 spirituality, 3 power, and 22 intelligence!

Do you hear that? Something on the horizon stirs a cyclone from thin air, clouds boil and darken, the air grows chill as an unmistakeable sound pierces the air. The clouds part and a stream of pure white light streaks the sky, obliterating anything it touches, sparking countless explosions and drawing both gasps of terror and screams of agony in chorus. Granted, Bahamut has been known to play both sides, but he's usually on the side of good. He's extremely old, very wise, and lacking none of the power he wielded long ago. Basically he's a demi-god, but for our purposes he's the embodiment of all the best traits - intelligence, spirit, strength and good. Appearing in practically every single Final Fantasy in some form or other, Bahamut is synonymous with not only power, but strength of will, wisdom and strength of character. I must applaud you, test taker, for you are in a class all your own. If you really measure up to Bahamut's impressive list of attributes, you're alright in my book. Your polar opposite is the Goblin. You're likely to get along with anyone aligned with Good.

This test tracked 4 variables. How the score compared to the other people's:

Higher than 54% on purity

Higher than 45% on faith

Higher than 35% on strength

Higher than 81% on intelligence

Questions from skipsida

2005-11-14T23:43:10Z

Okay so I could be called slack given how long ago I got given these but hay...

1. How did you start getting involved in theatre?
Ummm.... ages ago I made friends with the really old lady that does sound at church, and used to sit by her and watch what she was doing and such. When I was a bit older I got onto the sound system roster for a service that she didn't do, nothing fancy, just 2 weeks out of every 8 operating the sound.... And then one Christmas eve I got asked by the proprietor of This Rough Magic Film and Theatre whether i could be assistant sound and light operator for a show for her... i was about 15 at the time...

2. Webfoot. Origins of your using it?
Hee... Cause i couldn't take Myffster when I first started using it... and Webfoot came to mind as a good name... Long story as to why... even has pretty pictures to keep people entertained...

3. What'd you say your speciality dish would be? Can you eat it on your diet? Will you make me some?
You know i don't really have a specialty dish... there isn't really something that is the special webfoot dish... I cook... I like cooking... and i came from the school of education in cooking that says that you look through the fridge and cupboards and decide what you can cook from what you have... I do interesting things... like put cinnamon in a chilli, meat and tomatoe sauce... I suppose that pasta used to be it... and no i can't eat it... challenge me one day when your around to cook a dinner and see what you end up with...

4. What kind of cheese you would kill another innocent human being just to gain enough for a cracker?
Brie

5. Ninjas vs Pirates. Who would win? Describe the battle.
Wow... that's sooo coool... there would be like kicks and ninja stuff and pirates doing funky sword swings... now if you given me a location i could tell you who i think would win, but you didn't... and there are too many variables... but it would make a great movie..... hmmmm brain wanders off to create the many options into films and theatre shows Ask me with a setting and i'll describe the battle... also need to know how many ninjas and how many pirates...

eeeek
