Happy Halloween Everybody!
Gonna hafta pop down to Civic tonight and see what the big Halloween celebrations are that they is planning. (My grammar check aint working today).

I got a really urgent phone call from Chris about 9pm last night. He had a very important question to ask me, it was extremely important!!!! It was:

"What team was Iceman in in the comics?"

Glad to know I'm useful.

(by the way the answer is The X-Men, X-Factor and at one time, The Champions)

Didn't end up going to the Big ol' lecture at Tuggeranong this morning. Staff are off sick so ol' Dave had to stay at the library to make up the numbers. See: They can't run the place without me!.
I've had the soundtrack to Jesus Christ Superstar going through my head today, maybe I'll end up asking people, "What's the buzz? Tell me what's happening!"

Lyric Of The Day
"Where do we start with a man who is bigger,
than John was when John did his baptism thing?"
From Jesus Christ Superstar (Making the Bible fun!)

I get to go to a lecture about Childrens Library services today. I got no idea what to expect, except a loooong trip to Tuggeranong and back. Hmm, well, it's all part of the job, I'll have to force myself to take it easy for half the day. (Yipeeeeee!).
I had a weird dream last night (God! I sound like DDD's journal) I was in Civic on a Thursday, having a few points o Guiness and I walked past the library at about 7:30 and saw some dude in there. Being a clever fella, I thought "Duh He shouldn't be in there" and I went in to tell him to piss off. He told me that "The Angels said he could stay in the library after closing" Then I woke up.

What the?????

Gotta go to work now,
Y2Dave (missing the angels at Civic) (awwww!)

Its raining and I just got soaked walking to work. Gotta have a coffee and warm up. F**king Canberra weather.
Time for a quick Lyric Of The Day

Ohhh Yippeeeee! I've been hanging out for that coffee for hours, now Dave's brain is working betterer.

For Those Who Came In Late
Had me celebration drinks on Friday. Had some more Friday night. Couldn't look at a drink on Saturday, so I watched Goodies episodes over at the Can-Man's place. Worked Yesterday at Tuggeranong, then raced back to woden and saw Freddy Vs Jason! That film has to win an Oscar, even if it is for best film starring Freddy and Jason. See Freddyvsjason.com for more details. Some dopey woman actually wore a hockey mask in the cinema, and we all laughed when someone told her she looked like an idiot. hehhehehe.
There was a trailer for the new Texas Chainsaw Massacre film which looks like it'll suck.

So thats two thumbs up for Freddy Vs Jason from me!

Quote of the Day
"What are you wasting time pining over that Australian bint (Olivia Newton-John) for? Give me Edna Everage, at least she's a real woman!" - Bill Oddie, The Goodies

The Panda spoke! Panda has been gallivanting around Europe like a mad bugger, and sent us all an E-mail today! Yay Panda! Pity you won't be at my celebrayshun drinx 2knight. Get to do a fair bit of celebrating as I don't gotta work tomorrow-Recovery day. Might laze around and read Earth X and see if it makes any more sense this time around.

Newsflash
The perfect crime was commited today when thieves broke into the Federal Police HQ and stole all the toilets.

Police say they have absolutely nothing to go on.

(c) The Two Ronnies (1976)

Also, today Irish Intelligence have announced that after 7 years hard work, they have finally cracked Britain's Highway Code.

And just before I leave I'd like to say that Dave does it again!
(Which puts me in 2nd place behind the French, who do it again and again)

So it's goodnight from me, and it's goodnight from him.......

Just tried the Inkblot test at Emode. My results are:

Curiosity

You are full of questions about life, people, and your own potential. You spend more time than others imagining the possibilities for your life — and you're open to things others are too afraid to consider.

You have an almost physical need to know and do more. It's only through new experiences that you feel a greater understanding of yourself and the world. You also have a rebellious streak that shows up when you feel unable to truly influence the world or circumstances around you. Your appetite for novel experiences also shows an openness others don't have, but wish they did.

Your psyche is very rich; the more you learn about it, the more you will understand who you really are.

I'm curious about these results.......

Todays Quiz Question
What is the stage name of Terry Bollea?

Answer to Yesterdays Quiz
A toss up between The Phantom and Donald Duck & Uncle Scrooge (innovator of the ping-pong ball method for raising sunken ships). Well done DDD.

Listened (and copied) Bowies latest album, Reality. Not too shabby, especially for the price I paid. :)

I'm tireeeeeeeeeeedddddddddddddddddddd! Damn Saturdays should be illegal, then we wouldn't have to work so much with all the freaky people who ask stupid questions one after the other, never speak clearly, complain about things that we don't control, whinge to me about stuff that I didn't even know about but I spoke to a girl at Tuggeranong 30 minutes ago and she had the book so why is it not here yet???? F**king hippies

Long sentences piss me off too......

Trotted down to Civic last night before my big weekly comic hunt. Saw Megsie and Droopy down there. I really look forward to Friday nights when I can drop in and catch up on whats happening. Miss you guys, but I suppose I'll see you at Thursday drinks will I?

Bought a couple of comics last night. Couple of Green Lantern trades and the new issue of Ultimate Spider-Man. Now that is quality literature. I much prefer that to the S**t we have in here. All we need is a bunch of guys in spandex punching the crap out of other guys in spandex. Wooo! Literature is cool!

YAY!

The Mystery Of The Collection Man!

I'm at the circ desk. Theres a list of the old "in transit" card numbers here. One is Collection Man and dopey ol' Dave was wondering "Who is the Collection Man?" It was only when I typed the number into loans that I found it was Collection Management. D'oh!

Daves stuck here at Dickson till January! Might be able to save a bit of money for my big planned trip. (Not gonna tell you where, It's a secret!)

I have to work tomorrow to cover Liz going to a wedding. Bugger. Now I ain't gonna get a day off till Tuesday. Damn Saturday hippies! I really want to watch some wrestling.We had a comment from the library service's Health Officer that each branch should do 30 mins physical activity before opening. She suggested meditation (?) meditation isn't a physical activity you nerk! Maybe we should do 30 mins of wrestling. I'll teach Julie how to whack Ken over the head with a chair.

Wheeeee! Bloodlust is fun!!!!

I'm here early today and I gots the run of the whole library! Such power! Thought I'd get in and get all the opening up done quickly, so of course the papers haven't arrived.

Mum rang last night. Seems Dad got into an accident in Sydney, a truck hit the car. Dad's alright though, but the car will be written off. But then, now he gets to stay with Beau for a few more days.

Better start work, even though Horizon is "having a few problems" (gee. Really!????)

How about that! I'm still in Dickson! At Tradies. Having a few brew. Dont gotta work tomorrow (yay the RDO!!!!!) so I'm gonna have a few more, then go home, relax, (maybe have a few more), watch the wrestling tapes I got at CPW show on Sat, and then go to sleep (At a wee hour of the morning). Hi to all my regular readers, I miss you guys at Civic, but it looks like I'll be back soon. (17th I think) Take care of each other for me, and especially Take care of the piggy.

When I was having a few schooners of Too-heeys Noo tonight, I was watching Who Wants To Be a Squillionaire on channel 9. Now either I'm really smart, or people are really stupid. Some guy here, (and the woman on the program) didn't know what the closest star to Earth is. (I think its the latter, I'm really not that smart).

And Now a Personal Note
I'm not sure if you read this, but if you are reading I want to tell you I really miss you, Helen. I wish I could go back and do things differently. I miss you dear.

Dave's all choked up, better go now, bye all you Dave-o-Holics!

By the way, why don't you ever comment any more Droopy?

I seem to have forgotten about the chairs at the rasslin' At least 3 chairs broke, and they were the ones in the audience. (One was due to a fat ol' bastard) I don't think CPW's budget extended to proper chairs, or maybe they mixed up the proper and gimmicked chairs.......

Because of Blackjack's elaborate entrance, I've got Ace Of Spades by Motorhead stuck in my head....... Blackjack's a cool wrestler though..... If you wanna see a quick video of blackjack giving his finishing manouver "The Ace Of Spades" to Chris Colombu (former Dickson Tradies goer) click here

If you like to gamble, I tell you I'm your man.

I managed to (barely) stay awake during the Yeti match on Saturday, probably cause it was a Rumble becoming Fatal 4Way match and there were 10 other people in the ring. Thought some guy at the back was impressed when he yelled out "Yeti learned a move! Way to go Yeti!". Went to the gimmick table pre-show, and picked up a few tapes, (Best of Cactus Jack in ECW and a couple of WWE PPV's). Got back to my seat and heard the dreaded words : Hi Guy! Minje was at the wrestling????

Actually it was good during the auction of the signed T-Shirt. We started at $20 and soon someone bid "One Hundred" Minje then stood up and yelled out "Two hundred!!!" then the woman who bought Minje told him to shut up.

By the way, Blackjack was warlocks mystery opponent, and lethal Injection lost the title to Crofty. Damn.

For more results and other assorted CPW crap, go to www.capitalprowrestling.s5.com

More to come.....

By the way Harry Potter is now a CPW ref.

Awww. This IS a nice world. There was a lady at Dickson today handing out free chockies. Apparantly she was a staff member at KFC and they were having a "share the love" day. Kochie would be proud.

Either that or its a cynical KFC advertising campaign.......

Yay For the Day
Todays yay for the day goes to the soon-to-be Governor Mr Arnold Schwarzenegger, the innovator of the "Vote for me if you want to live" political campaign. Apparantly the first law he will pass is that every cinema shows Hercules Goes Bananas every hour. (For those who came in late, Hercules Goes Bananas was Arnie's first moofie. He was credited as Arnold Strong......isn't trivia wonderful kiddies???)

So here's to Arnie, only Austrian to make it big (if you don't count Hitler) Yay Mr Governor!!!!

Quote Of The Day
"I spent 7 years at police school, when all I had to do was drive around, point to a house, and say "The Bad Guys are in there"??" - Arnie , Last Action Hero, which is a much better Arnie moofie then True Lies, no matter what all the critics say......

I just read in Rolling Stone that Sam Phillips died this year. I didn't know. (For those Daveites who dunno who Sam Phillips was, he was the guy who discovered Elvis Presley, Jerry Lee Lewis, Johnny Cash and a lot of the performers back when I was a boy, when music was good.)
Trivia!
Phillips gave Elvis his first push because Elvis and Scotty were singing That's Alright Mama just for the hell of it. It wasn't what they went to record. But That's Alright Mama was the song that started Elvis's career. (And deservedly so, If you ever hear it.......)
End of History Lesson

That relaxed me, now I got 4 more hours of busy work ahead of me. There was a guy this morning, in MY library, puffing away on a cigarette. I hope the cancer spreads in him really quickly. Apparently he was asking staff if this was a bank (???). Shows how good these University educations are these days.

I have tooooooooooo many returns, and not much else. I Pseudo-Mondays.

Spent yesterday at the movies, saw League Of Extraordinary Gentlemen, and wished I hadn't. It ain't too good. In fact it is about as good as that Captain America movie with JD Salinger's son in it. Apparently there was some Foolsball match this weekend, but who cares.

I'm going to go see League Of Extraordinary Gentlemen either tonight or tomorrow. Might try to read the book before I go. Maybe hafta buy Volume 2 soon as well.
