So – it’s been a good long while since I wrote anything here. Life has kept me quite busy lately, but things are good.

It’s Engineering Week right now at UBC, so things are definitely crazy. Skulk Night was a lot of fun (some pictures to come later), and other events have been great. We’ve still got the Four-legged race, dodgeball, and FilmfEUSt to go, all of which I believe my department, Fizz, can win. We’ve got a really really funny video for FilmfEUSt, and I’ll post it up here when it’s done and judged.

So… to answer your question – no, I’m not dead.

With regards to the song “With or Without You”:

Let the phrase “with you” be p, then ~p would be “without you”.
Let q be “I can’t live”

p U ~p → q
T → q
______________
q
 

So… we can see that Bono shouldn’t be alive.

So… you’ll see that I’ve now got a button on the sidebar for Paypal donations. It’s not like I’m gonna make you pay to see the site, but if you’ve found anything useful on this site, or just want to be nice, you can help me keep this going by donating a little bit of money into my Paypal account.

I’ll be updating my Hamachi guides as much as I can, but school’s got me bogged down for the next week or so. Hopefully by mid December I’ll have proper guides on how to install and setup Hamachi, and how you can have it run as a service so that it’s completely transparent. Very useful for workstations where you don’t want the user to easily see what’s running.

If you’ve got any suggestions on how I can make this site better for you, send me an e-mail! My address is nick at the domain name. Hopefully spambots aren’t as smart as you are…

So – that week is over! w00t!!!

The weekend was pretty good too. Katherine came out on friday night and we went out for all-you-can-eat Sushi. I had lots of sashimi… god I love the stuff. And when you’re paying for all-you-can-eat, you might as well take advantage of it.

Yesterday, we went and saw a play that Kath’s roommate was starring in. It’s called “Desperate Fishwives”, and was about a group of 6 women who were trying to find a way of preserving the heritage in their town – Pityme, BC. (yes – Pityme) They end up doing a “nude” photo shoot for a calendar that then goes on to be Oprah Winfrey’s calendar of the year… so they get $500K. I wish I could make $500K from Oprah that easily.

Anyways – at the end of the show, as a final “present” to the town the women do their own rendition of “The Full Monty”. Sadly, there was no real nudity, but there were some nice black underwear… hehe. *avoids whack from gf*

This morning, I played ultimate frisbee with my classmates. Our team is called “Fizzbees”, since I’m in Fizz – short for Engineering Physics. It was really really really windy out (AND COLD!!!), but we still managed to make two points upwind. Go team! You can check out pictures of our team last weekend here.

So… on another note. I got a pleasant surprise today on MSFN. I’m now an SMod! I totally wasn’t expecting that one, but it’s a nice thing to come to. Hopefully I’ll do a good job of it.
