I like to ruffle feathers. I like to cause arguments, and i like to piss people off. So i just had to wear my Trinidad and Tobago top today for work. Why? Becasue england play T&T today, and roughtly everyone apart from me is wearing an england top.

This whole world cup season is bullshit. No one likes living in this god damm awful country unless the footy’s on. Then every man and his dog is flying england flags, wearing england tops, making any random white surface into a st georges flag. Well its all bullshit. I remember reading an article in the newspaper, it was just after or the day after St Georges day, and something like 2 out of the 10 royal places that really should of been flying the St Georges cross, were not!

And yet, as soon as a bunch of overpaid football players fly out to a 7 star hotel in germany to get waited on hand and foot, and then go and kick a ball around – the entire english population go out and buy everything they can with a red cross on it. I even saw Ltd editon England Stanley tape measures in peggs. I mean, come on people. If your gonna be patriotic, then be patriotic all the time, not just when it suits you – or when its fashionable.

Rock On! 🙂

Thats the noise my brain made about a hour ago. I have burnt myself out over these alst few days, stressing, coding, editing, adding, changing, moving, porting, creating..

But the good news is Maxxd V2 is now;

• Running PHPbb2
• Gallery Port Mod Added
• Custom Modifications to heder and footer
• Quick reply hack added
• Shoutbox mod added
• And custom theme created and applied
• All above installed and tested.

Its taken me 2 days to get it to this stage, with 1 little bit off help from daniel to get the galelry upgraded. I did the rest myself, and im very proud of mysel for it too. Its been very hard, and i think i have had some form of breakdown, or error occur in my head as its hurting all the time and feels like it is going to pop.

Well, i have finally decided and actioned the maxxd.com switch. The nuke installation that we have been running off for 4 years has closed its gates, and Maxxd.com V2.0 has been born!

It looks like a simple forum but there is a lot of behind the scenes work going off that is very stressfull. The gallery is all over the place at the mo too, i have had to upgrade it before i can port it, and im kinda stuck halfway thru that as i write this now..

Things left to do

1. Change httpd.conf so that gallery hopefully works.
2. install the stuff to port it to the new site
3. figure out how to close the old nuke site one, but have it open for viewing.

Then there the ghettro site, the k-tintz site and the amen site to finish.. boy have i bitten off more than i can chew right now!

I must sleep now before i fuck something up.. 🙂

Work was insanely stressfull today. It was too hot, too humid, and just plain wack. I couldnt wait to get the fuck out of there. It had been raining for quite a lot of the day too which meant stuff was supposed to cool down – but i didnt untill i was home and had my shirt off for about an hour. Then i was fine.

Wardo pointed out on maxxd that british people tend to complain when its shit weather, and then complain when its good weather. And hes damm right in saying that. Its not as complicated for wardo tho, cos he’s a skinny ass mo fo 😉 but us big bastards do feel the heat a bit more. But i tend to prefer the hot months. If any of us spent enough time in a foreign country we would become climatized to that area and you’d be sound.

Air con at work will sort all my problems 🙂

Oh and i have been itching to use some chopsticks again as i used some last night and they rule. So i tried my luck at a chow mein, which was a lot easier than the rice i had the previous night. I want to be able to use them for when i go there in my not to distant future! 🙂
