hehe good idea.

anyway im off to go annoy the neighbours, they've been playing stupid pop/dance crap music for the last two days at high volume until late into the night (1am and gone last night and until almost 3am some nights ago.), time to bring out the rammstein, ozzy, and other punk/metal music...they seem to think they stand a chance against a teenager with a good stereo, and a liking for heavy music...fools

Hehehehe.... you should have switched on the hard music at 10 this morning, while they probably thought they could sleep in

Sleep. It eludes me.

Usually, I'd be in the same predicament, but last night I managed to get to sleep early. It was still about 3.30 a.m. mind, but it is better than the usual 4.30.
You have my sympathy, but you can rest easy in the knowledge that you'll just about drift off to sleep maybe 20 minutes before your kids wake up and start wanting their breakfast

Went to the Portugal-Germany game last night, pretty good game.

Nice to see Sarah

When I asked she said she hadn't seen "Tsotsi" (she wasn't sure how to pronounce the word though).

Anybody seen Mordib in the past few months?

Why? Are you expecting his baby?

the68monkey · Post by **the68monkey** » 10 Jul 2006, 00:54

Nah, I had my tubes tied after my 2nd kid. I'm done.

Just hope he hasn't disappeared without a word.

Yi-Long · Post by **Yi-Long** » 10 Jul 2006, 01:25

Ah, I'm sure he'll turn up again...

Fucking movies are bullshit, man. I've just had my first day of Jury duty ("Awww, Jury duty? I'll see that Quimby kid hang for this! - Homer), and it's nowhere near as glam as they'd have you believe. And I was so hyped after seeing 12 Angry Men yesterday.

First, the almost intolerable waiting... I'll tell you, if I didn't have my iPod and my DS with me, I'd've been in the dock because someone would've had their head rammed through a wall. Maybe only in a year's time, because of the backlog, but this isn't a critique of the justice system, this is a rant about time-wasting.
When something finally occured in the afternoon (we'd all been there since 9.00), the judge had decided to only have us sworn in and give us the charges brought against the defendants in the case, and leave the opening statements till tomorrow at 11.00. We had to wait 'til 2.30 to find out only that.

Well, I suppose on the upside, at least I am involved in a case; there was one poor fella who'd been waiting for two weeks and hadn't been selected. He'd run his entire two-week minimum service without even being seated at a trial. Yet, he'd had to turn up everyday and just hang about...

And no, I'm not gonna tell you anything about it, so don't ask

Oh, come on Kurgan. Write your unauthorized account of how Mrs. XYZ bounced one too many cheques.

But seriously, I hope it's not as dull as that.

To be honest, I think I could probably say something as no particulars of evidence have been given, but I figure I'm on shaky ground here and don't need this this to mark my record. I'll just say that it involves multiple people and there are banned substances involved.
We've been given an estimate in terms of time and this particular case will take at least a week, so I'm assuming things should pick up tomorrow

Damn, I knew I shouldn't have had that Cocaine-fuelled orgy with those underage cheerleaders. Bah!

Yeah, well, you are going to get sent down, if I have my way. Screw all this 'innocent 'til proven guilty' nonsense. I'm taking a leaf out of Dubya's book and am gonna make snap judgement calls. You always did look shifty to me, with your insanely happy face. You're clearly on something right now!

"the trick to avoiding jury-duty is to say you're prejudiced against all races"

Kurgan · Post by **Kurgan** » 11 Jul 2006, 20:50

Yeah, even my own. I hate everybody!

Hey, in my case that's actually true. I hate everybody until proven otherwise. Hang 'em all.

Had a slight shock today...

I heard from her boyfriend that it seems Sarah may have to have to leave the country and go back to South Africa (?) if she doesn't renew her visa, or get a new one (or something like that).

Markgway · Post by **Markgway** » 15 Jul 2006, 17:52

Damn, you'll just have to marry her so she can stay.
