"Chad can you come to my Office, please."

I get up from my desk and walk to Mr. Wonderfuls office and This is what happened.

MrW moving a few things "When you move something, put it back. You know I am finicy (anal) about this."
Me: "..."
MrW "Thats it, I just wanted to show you this."
Me "Thats it?... Thats all you wanted?"
MrW "Yes"
Me walking away "O... K...ay..."

I shit you not, a total waste of about 3 to 4 minutes. Thanks, I want that time back.

Sorry, I must Bitch about this...

Ok, Everyone knows about Take-Two, the creators of Grand Theft Auto, are being sued over a hidden sex scene where the player can control what happens. Now, As a gamer (not as much as some) this game doesn't bother me, Nor do I see a reason why people should put up a stink about the game, or any game for that matter. Everyone know what Drug dealers do, Pimps do. So why bitch about it, you see it in movies, on the news on tv. So why complain about it when a video game does it. If you feel the content not correct for your kids then don't buy it for them or dont even allow them to buy it and or play it. Easy as that, As a father of a 10 year old who also shares a passion of video game playing, he knows these types of games are off limits until the is older and more mature. If you feel your kid plays them, then let them know you dont want them playing them. There are a lot worse things in the world, and if your kid doesnt know the difference between a game and life then you need to limit the amount of time and game type he or she plays.

What gets me about this whole thing on sueing them over the Hidden Sex scene, there are worse things in the game other than the hidden porn scene. Sex/porn is an easliy accessable through other means, TV, Video, Internet. Which would you perfer, your kid watching porn or actually going out and having an active sex life.

Here's part of an article I was reading that got me started on this post.

The game, released in 2004, is one of a series in which the player takes the role of a criminal who commits murder, deals in drugs and pimps prostitutes in a virtual Los Angeles. However, the makers, Take-Two Interactive Software, may have stepped over the line by embedding a game within a game called Hot Coffee in which the characters have explicit sex under the control of the player.

With a game like this how can you say that you steped over the line by adding sex? Something thats natural, non-the-less something thats hidden in game. Usually these things are not known by average players until it is spread via forums and in this case the Media (news). Which in my eyes is more violent than any movie or game. You don't see anyone going after an author for a really sexual or violent book do we?...

The point of the legal actions are mainly based on the rating being off. From Mature 17+, to what should have been on it Adult only 18+. How can you differ from a year? Kids these days see sex and talk about or are even active, What so different from acting it out on a game than watching it or even going out and doing it.

Enough of me rambling, the News is on, time for my daily dose of Violence.

File's date is wrong...

A while back I created an excel file that has some automation to as far as
creating cells with the correct month and days and then coloring them as needed
for Friday, Saturday and Sunday. The thing with the file is that it has to end in
a 4 digit number, i.e. report2006.xls. Theres a function in it that takes the four
digits and makes it the year for the workbook. So if its not named to this format
the dates will be off. So heres the thing.

Mr. Wonderfull calls me to show me that the files' date is not showing correctly
and the I need to make sure that when the file is done in the morning that it is
done correctly and with out any errors so he can send it to the boss. I get to his
office and look at the file. The date shows as follows: 01/01/6(1). I then tell
him that the file when I sent it did not show that, and that I would look at it.
Now, I didn't notice the file error until I came back to my office and checked the
file. I make the nessecary edits and then remember the date thing. So I make a
note with in the excel file, and how it needs to be saved as, Then send it on its
way back to Mr. Wonderfull. A few seconds later I recieve a call from him, Asking
what I mean by the file name. I then try to explain to him that he had changed
the name of the file so it read 01/01/6(1) as the date. The then tells me that he
did not change the filename. And he is very adamant about it. Anything with
this man no matter how truthfull or right you can be is still wrong and your fault,
regardless of what proof you have.

Odd things I purchased this weekend...

This has to be the oddest purchase I have ever made. Now, mind you the two products by themselves are not at all strange, but when purchased together they make for a rather strange and quite time at the register.

What did I purchase you ask? Well, we mainly went for a Toilet Plunger, but for some reason my sister in law thought we needed Vodka to. So, We bought a Toilet Plunger and a Bottle (big one at that) of Vodka. And yes, The cashier and bagger were giving each other looks about this too.

Watch out for them Firetrucks...

30 True Facts about Chuck Norris...

This came after corey commented on Law and Order, I looked up the story because I heard it about Chucks Arms and not his legs, Well I soon started laughing my ass off at the following Facts about Chuck Norris. These should also be sent to Conan O'Brien. Just because he likes to show the Clips from Walker: Texas Ranger.

30 True Facts about Chuck Norris...

30. Chuck Norris' tears cure cancer. Too bad he has never cried.

29. Chuck Norris sold his soul to the devil for his rugged good looks and unparalleled martial arts ability. Shortly after the transaction was finalized, Chuck roundhouse kicked the devil in the face and took his soul back. The devil, who appreciates irony, couldn't stay mad and admitted he should have seen it coming. They now play poker every second Wednesday of the month.

28. When Chuck Norris sends in his taxes, he sends blank forms and includes only a picture of himself, crouched and ready to attack. Chuck Norris has not had to pay taxes ever.

27. Chuck Norris sleeps with a night light. Not because Chuck Norris is afraid of the dark, but the dark is afraid of Chuck Norris

26. Chuck Norris could have any woman he wants, but he has never had sex. He only masturbates because the only person good enough to have sex with Chuck is Chuck.

25. A blind man once stepped on Chuck Norris' shoe. Chuck replied, "Don't you know who I am? I'm Chuck Norris!" The mere mention of his name cured this man blindness. Sadly the first, last, and only thing this man ever saw, was a fatal roundhouse delivered by Chuck Norris.

24. Someone once tried to tell Chuck Norris that roundhouse kicks aren't the best way to kick someone. This has been recorded by historians as the worst mistake anyone has ever made.

23. The original theme song to the Transformers was actually "Chuck Norris--more than meets the eye, Chuck Norris--robot in disguise," and starred Chuck Norris as a Texas Ranger who defended the earth from drug-dealing Decepticons and could turn into a pick-up. This was far too much awesome for a single show, however, so it was divided.

22. Chuck Norris' action figure has slept with more women then most men.

16. As a teen Chuck Norris impregnated every nun in a convent tucked away in the hills of Tuscany. Nine months later the nuns gave birth to the 1972 Miami Dolphins, the only undefeated and untied team in professional football history.

15. Chuck Norris can make a woman climax by simply pointing at her and saying "booya".

14. Chuck Norris can touch MC Hammer.

13. To prove it isn’t that big of a deal to beat cancer. Chuck Norris smoked 15 cartons of cigarettes a day for 2 years and aquired 7 different kinds of cancer only to rid them from his body by flexing for 30 minutes. Beat that, Lance Armstrong.

12. Chuck Norris was the fourth Wise Man. He brought baby Jesus the gift of “beard”. Jesus wore it proudly to his dying day. The other Wisemen, jealous of Jesus’ obvious gift favoritism, used their combined influence to have Chuck omitted from the Bible. Shortly after all three died of roundhouse kick related deaths.

8. The original theme song to the Transformers was actually “Chuck Norris–more than meets the eye, Chuck Norris–robot in disguise,” and starred Chuck Norris as a Texas Ranger who defended the earth from drug-dealing Decepticons and could turn into a pick-up. This was far too much awesome for a single show, however, so it was divided.

7. When Chuck Norris’s wife burned the turkey one Thanksgiving, Chuck said, “Don’t worry about it honey,” and went into his backyard. He came back five minutes later with a live turkey, ate it whole, and when he threw it up a few seconds later it was fully cooked and came with cranberry sauce.

Back from a week off....

Well, I returned back to work yesterday, but was unable to take the time to blog. I was terrible at blogging during the week I was off, But its ok, because the time they did call I blogged it. and Yes, only two calls, Suprisingly. I figured it was because I didnt reply back to the second one. How-ever the reason for Mr. Wonderfull calling was not worthly of bugging me during my time off. When I got back he asked me why I didn't return his call and also that he called my house number too, but wasnt there. Well he didnt leave a message, and the Caller ID didnt show his number saying he did call, so thats one for me. Two the reason why he called was that he wanted to know where a certain printer was so it can be serviced. ? Huh ? Where the certain printer is normally, I would think, unless... it grew some legs and ran off with the copy machine.

Oh by the way, my printer was one of the three printers to be sent out to get serviced. Funny though, Its been a week, where are the printers? Simple servicing can be done here, I know mine just needed a good cleaning, more so did the other two. Go Figure.
So yesterday Mr Wonderfull gives me a call and asks me to print out something that he can do from online. Wait... You want me to print out something you can print out. First off he has a printer, Two MF Printers (Multi-Function), Why do you need two? Wouldnt one be enough? So anyways, I then inform him that I have no printer and can not print unless I connect to 1 of his or to another one. Wouldn't be that hard for me to, but it needed a color printer and most printers here are black. But no, he wants me to print it to one of his TWO printers, so I connect to one of them and get the drivers and print.. As I walk into his office I see 2 copies of what I just printed... I think to myself.. (Wait.. I printed just one? why are there two?). I ask if I mistakenly printed out two instead of one. He says no, I just printed one. (So if I may, but I may not Ask why didn't he just print one out in the first place? He had no reason as to why.

Yes, I deal with this all the time, and My dear friend Kevin is ever-so lucky to not have to deal with him anymore because Mr. W will more or less not go back up there. And I say un-to you Kevin, BOO!!!! You suck!

All in all it was a decent day yesterday other than the printing thing. Nothing much else to bitch about. Today has been going decently too. So, until tomorrow, Remember Badger Badger Badger Badger Badger Badger Badger

< /* Comment */ Code Code Type Code /* Arrg */

Yep, New layout for the blog. I've been working on this on the side for awhile now, more like 3 or 4 months off and on, on and off. Still some tweaks I need to do, things to add and or change. Other than that, its pretty much done. Do you like? I think I do. For now at least, I'm sure like when Im redo a site I do it a few different times before I get the final product, which I suprisingly didn't do here.

As for work, this is my last paid day, and have had an almost call free week, with the execptions of monday and a call on tuesday. So, I'll be back to the grind on monday.

I blogged a blog again. :)
