Infinitely Prolonged enough.

The time has finally come to take Wowbagger, the Infinitely Prolonged offline.

As far as I can tell, I have been using Wowbagger as my primary web and mail server, as well as a general dumping ground for miscellaneous files since January 7th, 2003. Well, technically the mail server went up on March 21st, 2003. This obscurely named machine was accessed by tens of people using the equally obscurely named Dynamic DNS address, Notlob.

Since I now have a legit (and incredible) domain name and managed web hosting, it’s finally time to put the old beast to rest. The fact that my parents are remodeling my old bedroom where the server lives, is of course, merely a courtesy detail.

I have imported an archive of my old photo gallery for all to enjoy in all its nostalic glory.

If you’ve read this far without needing to ask what the hell Wowbagger or Notlob are referencing, you are probably interested in the specs of this machine. Here you are:

  • 233MHz Celeron
  • 187 MB RAM (doesn’t sound right to me, but that’s what /proc/meminfo says)
  • 12GB HDD
  • Mandrake Linux v2.4.19-16 (I suck at updating, bite me)

Genghis Khan, you are a wanker; you are a tosspot; you are a very tiny piece of turd. Thank you.

::sniffle:: So long, Wowbagger, and thanks for all the insults.

Thankfully I wasn’t Jaeson Potter.

I was in some zelday/warcrafty world with 3 other friends. I had some firey magic wand that some evil dragon thing wanted to get. I alo had a tennice ball I was using ans a weapon.

We went into some dongeon that I had already partially completed, going downstairs . I heard veoices and it turned out to be a classroom with the teacher dazed and the children quietly occupied or asleep. One of us, I think Jenn from work, snuck in quietly and started helping the children.

Camping in the snow? I think not.

There was about 8″ of snow on the ground, Peter, Andy and I were all going to go out camping and sledding. Mom was inside talking about some of our old stuff that she was gaing through. Grandpa had soem ocndition that temporarily made him alive again. Ipacked a tuon of stuff into the thation wagon and was playing with Dirty outside. Andy eventually came with his dog, who did not get along with Dirt. We ended up leaving Dirty in te house, since we couldn’t leave his dog there.

After going out and sledding for a short while, we drove back, deciding not to bother camping.

How to offend your future son-in-law, in 3 easy steps.

When the idea of watching the movie your future son-in-law has spent 2 years creating is proposed:

  1. Ask what the movie is called.
  2. When you hear “Sexmatic” in the title, immediately dismiss the movie as not for you, despite not knowing the actual premise of the movie.
  3. Instead, watch a horribly scripted and acted crime show in which a woman was killed, pushed out of a limousine onto a highway, run over by 6 cars and ends up in 18 pieces.

My favourite part was the one character that at least 6 times said “What the hell is wrong with you people?!”

Thank you for your love, understanding and support.

Our dog is retarded.

There was something different feeling about my first step into the apartment after work tonight. Almost as though there was some sort of container underfoot. When I turned on the light and confirmed this, I have to say, I was pretty damned confused.
