Sorry for the lack of posts... I've been a busy guy lately. My new computer has opened up many new and cool options and entertainment. I haven't even come close to finishing the construction and mods, let alone the programming... but it's all something that I look forward too.

Good news and bad news to report... (on the computer front)

The Bad first: my sub woofer blew on my 5.1 surround sound system... :(

The Good: purchased two new fans over the internet... a super top of the line CPU Fan/Heatsink
Thermaltake VOLCANO 11+Xaser Edition Highest Performance Cooler

As well I purchased this fan for my case's window...

UV 80mm Blue Round Cold Cathode Fan w/ Dual Inverter



More pictures of this later when I get them developed and scanned. :)



In other news my younger brother is doing very well in continuing the tradition of killing everyone at rugby. The Rural Triple AAA Boys are undefeated and making a mockery of the entire league... And amidst all this triumph comes some sadness as Mr. Lloyds wife has been diagnosed with cancer... I don't have much more details at the present, but it is bad enough for him to be missing classes and practices... All our sympathy is with him. :(

The Party Shack is coming together...



Special thanks goes out to Dan and Steve for their super efforts at helping me configure and set up my new computer. I am now officially kicking some serious high speed ass!

Saturday we had a small gathering over for some games and music and a bit of drinking... proving that you don't need alcohol and drugs to have fun...

I still remain the King of Scrabble, Matt still remains the King of Monopoly even if his rule is rather Machiavellien...

Soon when the weather improves and spirits soar we (Jane and I) will be having larger parties, as there are plenty of seats, entertainment, room, ect at our place. Plus noise isn't a factor because my Landlord (Ross) is a really cool guy.

Stay tuned for future dates ect.

Updates...


Wow no posts in a while... I humbly apologize to my faithful readers. My attention has been diverted to the burgeoning Stratford Ball Players Association Sites. For further information on these sites contact the admin. :)

You can look forward to much more quality content in the upcoming weeks as Jane and I have purchased a new super computer and when it arrives I will be blogging at full speed. I will write a post later on the actual specs of this beast for any parties interested.

Coming soon.... the lost roll of film from Phase II of the Stratford Odyssey. These pictures should be up by Tuesday morning so stay tuned. You all have some other provocative pictures to look forward to. The photos in question were taken yesterday at our first Stratford Practice/BBQ which went splendidly. Thank yous go to Matt and the Community of Fort Augustus.
