Hiphop music
Why do fans of this garbage feel the need to blast it everywhere they go? I'm in a room full of computers, all the guys here are checking email or messing with facebook, and there's one asshole that feels the need to blast that shit from his phone to an otherwise quite room. If I didn't have a headache already, I'd play country loud as a could to make the point, but it just doesn't seem worth it some times.
Reports of my demise have been greatly exaggerated....
I'm back, finally. Past few months have been busy and interesting.
29 Stumps-Yep, this place DOES suck as bad as everyone says. There's very little to do when you have no transportation other than walking, and really, it's in the middle of the fucking desert,so that limits your options quite a bit. On the bright side, it's spring here, and the weather is absolutely gorgeous. No humidity, 70's during the day, 40's at night, which really beats the hell out of the Ohio winter I'm used to (snow,rain and generally disgusting sloppy weather).
There's also jack shit to do, and most of that costs money I don't want to spend. It's pretty much wander the PX, work out, surf the net on the few free wifi spots there are, and sleep. Bravo Co. isn't allowed to have vehicles and we have to take a "driver safety" class before we're allowed to rent cars (bullshit). This would be an awesome place to have a bike, but those are verboten to any non permanent personnel (BULLSHIT!). So, exploring the nearby stuff and national parks is also out for now.
Rant off, that's my status update, seems like it just turned into a me bitching session, but that's pretty much all I've got right now. On the plus side, I've got all kinds of free time for reading and blogging now, so watch this space.
PS- Reading material bleg. Trying to decide where to start reading. You folks are the most well read group I know, got any suggestions? I've read a bit of Terry Pratchett, so I'm thinking about reading through the Diskworld series, any other must reads?
