+on Pirates

Every now and then you come across something that’s just too great to pass up, for instance, when I found “Dragonforce” or “Battleheart” Bands with names like this cannot be passed up on.

Battleheart, as the name suggests, is a swashbuckling, whiskey chugging, power ballad producing Metal band, who hail from Scotland, and sing about… well all things pirate.

“we are heavy metal pirates, our compasses are true
so give us all your treasure or soon we’ll come for you yeaaaaaaaaah”

Battleheart is on the internet for free download off there official site (two full albums) with tracks like “Wenches and Mead, Nancy the Tavern Wench and Heavy Metal Pirates” you’ll find your self drunkenly growling argggggggh and swigging booty with ya mateys…

Dragonforce, on the otherhand, doesn’t need a big spiel, check this out, you’ll be a changed person.

+on Saving’s

I decided recently to seriously begin saving for a deposit on a house, its not a quick plan, its in my “5 to 10 year” goals, Its just one of the things I havent really cared about until recently, so I gotta choose a decent savings account, at a decent bank.

In that 5 to 10 years I can decide what I want to do for the rest of my life too.

While talking about money, I have until the 10th to Renew my Motor Vehicle Licence $183.22 for 12 months, cant wait to get this expense out of the way.

Im sitting at home, bored as shit, someone comment keep me going until its beer-o clock :D

+on Cat!

Did I mention the flat has a cat? Shorty (Shortie… how do you spell it?) is Rob and Sarah’s cat.

She’s already claimed an entire couch in the lounge, Jason’s bed, and Me, as the slave who feeds her when nobody else is home.
But Shorty (ill go with this spelling) pulls her weight, leaving half devoured corpses around the flat to feed us silly humans, waking rob up in the morning and sleeping the rest of the time is important work.

Take note that Shorty is made of 80% evil, 10% hungry and 10% I’m bored play with me (she’s very demanding)
She is a cool little cat.

This is pretty funny. also while dumping the links Ivew come across today, this is a great sketch from Chapelle show. Continue reading ‘+on Cat!’

+on Holy Sh*t

I just found out my computer chair reclines… well I hope its supposed too… Ive had this shitty chair for about a year and never reclined on it before.

My day is looking up :D

+on A Bad Day

Its been a bad day, First of all, my PC had passed away in the morning, than I got a parking ticket, traffic north was full of idiots and slow due to some heavy roadworks, my tooth disintegrated ($150 to get it pulled) I found out the young female barista from Otaki (who made a damn good coffee and was a good sort to chat too) died in the horrific car crash in that area last week and then received a letter I didn’t want.

On the upside, I saw my parents, got to drive in the sun, and Rawiri resuscitated my PC, for the moment, and I’m still breathing, and mildly enjoying life.

One week until the flatwarming (not to mention the Wellington 7’s – party!)

Peace

+on BDO part 3

Day 3, or.. the day after, we slept for three hours, got up at some stupid hour of the morning and hit the shower block of the camping ground.
We had a wedding to get too.
Jason started driving, but it became apparent just outside of Huntly that he was too tired, I ended up taking the wheel (I hate driving through Hamilton…) Continue reading ‘+on BDO part 3′

+on My Dying PC

My computer seems like its ready to pack it in…
that is all :(


It sounds asthough the 200gig HDD I got recently is packing it in, apparently Seagate are pretty good with replacing hardware that’s gaying out, fingers crossed this is the case… the upside is (tah-dah) without my computer I’ve been forced to waste time in other ways, watching T.V, getting wheels on my skateboard, listening to Radio @ctive, Drawing (bah-bye porno, hello sketch book) So you can expect some gnarly picture’s on my dA over the next few weeks.

Last thing, if your in Petone, and happen to be the jerkface gayfag that has inconsiderately parked infront of our flat (leaving half a space infront and behind of yourself so noone else can utilise the area) I hate you and hope something mildly unpleasant happens to you really soon.

Peace

+on Flatwarmings

29 Buick St, Petone
Wellington

+on BDO part 2

Image Dump – day 2, serious 56K warning
These are the photos of the convoy, one car doesn’t feature in any shots, but they had serious catch up to do (R33 Skyline, which meet us in Taupo) Also, the dude that looked like John Lennon in the White Primera was good value, If I get the chance, i’ll image dump my day 3 photos (better ones) very soon.
I’ll also get around to doing a write up about the trip.

enjoy

+on BDO part 1

First steps towards the Big Day Out Road Trip have commenced, I am currently at my parents house in Levin, awaiting the rest of the “convoy-ers” to show up, we have (what seems to be) two, possibly three vehicles heading North, It was going to be White Knights Disease-al Toyota Rolla wagon, but its fucked out, so low and behold, the Integra gets to go, packed with people, clothes, food and skateboards (cameras so on so on)


Riki’s ride also fell to bits, so he has borrowed my Aunty’s Accord, do I hear Honda theme? This builds up the 2nd car in the convoy, he is carrying two others, possibly some of our shite (to lighten the Integra up) and radar for detecting speed camera’s, hopefully a camera, for crazy roadtrip shenanigans.

Car three (at this point) is otherwise Jim the Eagle’s Ute/ work Ute, or Skidmark Stev-o-Canevo’s Astra (the suicide car) Rawiri is tripping in this vehicle, and will no doubt capture the trip on his fancy pants phone.

last few things, this video rocks, and I must buy the new album so I can rant about it, and everyone be safe on the road, its going to be a mental week, with the BDO, A1 GP and Wellington Anniversary weekend coinciding to give every moron, boyracer, old person who thinks they’re perfect a reason to kill you.

Peace

Frodo, Tama, Tamati (the dude with the P.I.M.P PJ’s… cheers Macey)
