STICKY POST

A Man Called Furie

The phone users' page, created on one of these by him on the right.

Mobile Technology Posts

The world is like a ride in an amusement park. And when you choose to go on it, you think it's real because that's how powerful our minds are. And the ride goes up and down and round and round - it has thrills and chills and it's very brightly coloured and it's very loud and it's fun, for a while. Some people have been on the ride for a very long time and they begin to question; is this real or is this just a ride? And other people have remembered and they come back to us saying "Hey don't worry, don't be afraid, ever, because this is just a ride."

And we... kill those people.

"We have a lot invested in this ride. Shut him up. Look at my furrows of worry. Look at my big bank account and my family. This just has to be real."

Just a ride. But we always kill those good guys who try and tell us that, you ever notice that? And let the demons run amok. But it doesn't matter because it's just a ride and we can change it anytime we want. It's only a choice. No effort, no work, no job, no savings and money. A choice right now between fear and love. The eyes of fear want you to put bigger locks on your doors, buy guns, close yourself off. The eyes of love, instead, see all of us as one.

Here's what we can do to change the world, right now, to a better ride. Take all that money we spend on weapons and defences each year and instead spend it on feeding and clothing and educating the poor of the world, which it would many times over, not one human being excluded, and we could explore space together, both inner and outer, forever in peace.

Things That Go Together

Sunday, 12. October 2008, 10:54:43

I can't sleep tonight.
Everybody saying everything is alright.

Still I can't close my eyes.
I see a tunnel at the end of all of these lights.

Sunny days, where have you gone?
I get the strangest feeling you belong.

Why does it always rain on me?
:rolleyes:

New Look Ovi

Saturday, 11. October 2008, 08:59:46

,

I know this is kind of old news now, but it's been on my mind.

I'm loving the new mobile version of Ovi.

Gone is the one photo at a time view, replaced with twelve to a page. This cuts down the amount of time it takes me to find an older photo a hell of a lot. The whole interface has been updated to be much easier to use, and the addition at the bottom of each page of a link to the full version increases it's usability tenfold.

It's a good time to be a mobile blogger. When I first started on this site there were barely any tools for mobile bloggers, and now we have a choice of several different formats for all our needs. The more tools there are, the less work I need to do on each post to keep it on par with PC users.
:D

First Review

Friday, 10. October 2008, 14:11:56

So, this beautiful phone just got it's first review over at Mobile Review and it's huge and in-depth. There are some flaws mentioned, but overall it seems like a really good evolution of the operating system.

Check it out for yourself.

Homer

Friday, 10. October 2008, 09:14:24

,

Meet Homer.

No, this is a dog not a Simpson, although he is kind of yellow and his exploits are worthy of the cartoon show. You see, Homer disappeared for three days last month and was found next to a railway track with gaping wounds across his back and side. It's every pet owner's nightmare, with one strange twist - these wounds hadn't bled at all.

Ray Davis, Homer's 62 year old owner, believes that Homer was hit by the wheel of a train and that the heat generated by the train going so fast cauterised the wounds instantly and stopped him bleeding to death.

Homer is certainly a lucky dog. After a quick operation to reopen the wounds and allow them to heal properly he's well on his way to recovery.

Sweating Bullets - Megadeth

Thursday, 9. October 2008, 09:30:18

Megadeth - Sweating Bullets - Mobile Video

Hello me, meet the real me.
And my misfits way of life.
A dark black past is my
Most valued possession.
Hindsight is always twenty twenty,
Looking back its still a bit fuzzy.
Speak of mutually assured destruction?
Nice story, tell it to readers digest!

Feeling paranoid.
True enemy or false friend?
Anxietys attacking me,
And my air is getting thin.
I'm in trouble for the things
I haven't got to yet.
I'm chomping at the bit,
And my palms are getting wet.
Sweating bullets!

Hello me, its me again.
You can subdue, but never tame.
It gives me a migraine headache
Sinking down to your level.
You, just keep on thinking its my fault
And stay an inch or two outta kicking distance.
Mankind has got to know
His limitations.

Feeling claustrophobic
Like the walls are closing in.
Blood stains on my hands
And I dont know where I've been.
I'm in trouble for the things
I haven't got to yet.
I'm sharpening the axe
And my palms are getting wet.
Sweating bullets!

Well, me, it's nice talking to myself,
A credit to dementia.
Some day, you too will know my pain,
And smile its blacktooth grin.
If the war inside my head
Wont take a day off I'll be dead.
My icy fingers claw your back,
Here I come again.

Feeling paranoid.
True enemy or false friend?
Anxietys attacking me,
And my air is getting thin.

Once you committed me,
Now you've acquitted me.
Claiming validity,
For your stupidity.
I'm chomping at the bit,
I'm sharpening the axe,
Oh here I go again!
Sweating bullets!

How Rude

Wednesday, 8. October 2008, 09:47:00

Okay, I fought my way through my watchlist and came out with very few deaths for once then got started on my private messages when I found this.

Not content with the blatant lie that Opera 9.6 is a recommended upgrade for "everyone", even though it wont download to my phone, the message is actually an announcement post with no way to delete it or even mark it as read. So now I've constantly got one message showing as being in my inbox.

How rude!

I'm A Man!

Wednesday, 8. October 2008, 08:57:49

Your Surfing Habits are 50% Male, 50% Female
There's no way we can tell whether you're a man or woman.
Of all the internet users, you are the most broad based in your habits.
You use the internet for research and your career.
But you also use the internet to keep in close touch with your loved ones.

The Drop

Tuesday, 7. October 2008, 07:49:38

,

I love going shopping with my nana. I'm a big boy now. Seven whole years old and I can carry the bags. I'm really strong too. I can manage two whole carrier bags now. Nana loves having help. She calls me her big strong helper and buys me sweets. This time I've been an extra good boy and she's taking me to see a movie next week. We're off to the pictures now to find out the time. It's a bit silly that we have to go all the way there just to find that out. I wish there was a way to find out from home because my arms are getting tired.

Jesus Rides Dinosaurs

Monday, 6. October 2008, 08:42:04

Matt Damon Says It All
I need to know if she really thinks dinosaurs were here 4,000 years ago. I want to know that. I really do. Because she's gonna have the nuclear codes you know?

It was June 1997, and Sarah Palin, mayor of Wasilla in Alaska, had just given a speech for a graduation ceremony of local home schooled children when she struck up an interesting conversation with Phillip Munger, the University of Alaska's music instructor. During this conversation she insisted that humans and dinosaurs walked the earth at the same time, only 6000 years ago, and that she had seen photographs of human footprints inside the fossils of dinosaur tracks.

Yeeeeesssss, so anyway... Is it me or are statements like that fucking terrifying coming from someone who wants to have their finger on the button that can end this world? You can just see them there, finger hovering - "Tell me when lord! It's all up to you. You told me to kill my pet dog and I did. Speak to me again, lord!" Don't get me wrong, I've got nothing against faith in politics. I do however draw the line at blatant insanity.

It's not often you'll find me agreeing with someone like Matt Damon, but I'll let him have his say over on the right there. It pretty much says it all doesn't it? No? Well let me hand it over to Bill Hicks and we'll see what he has to say on the matter.
:D
