As i look at my watch and see Mickey's hand on the 6 and Goofy's leg on the 8......I realise my Rolex is a fake. But there's just enough time to put in a link to the I'm Sorry I Haven't A Clue website.

And now I'd like to sing Stand By Me to the tune of The William Tell Overture.

Just spent my first day after Mum and Dad left trying to digimatise my LP’s and Johnny Tapes so I can keep em in my Hard Drive. Success!!!! Now I can pretend I’m living in the 50’s and Burn some Rock N Roll. A big Fanks! To DDD for helping me out with this. I predict that my Hard Drive is just gonna be full of 1980’s Heavy Metal (ahh -them were the days) However too much 80’s metal can be dangerous, just look what happened in Trick or Treat, (which seemed to be really similar to Shocker when I viewed it……) Ah who cares? They‘re both kickarse films.

Album Of The Day
Shocker Soundtrack , closely followed by Derek And Clive's Five (Six)Filthy (Fabulous) Favourites

Movie Of The Day
Clash Of The Titans (and you thought I was going to say Shocker didn't ya?)

It’s 3:30pm as I type this and Mum, Dad and I are having a lazy Sunday afternoon (just like the Small Faces) We’ve been listening to the 2CA annual alphabetical countdown, where they play every record in the library in alphabetical order. They’ve just got to the letter I (In the year 2525) Something about that appeals to the librarian in me. Mum’s reading one of the Catherine Cookson novels that I got for her from the Lifeline Bookfair. Dad’s watching the cricket and I’m blogging. Gonna try and rework the layout of my site. Get a few new links on it to stuff like Bert Is Evil! And Find The Spam!

Three days off work. F**king beauty! Now for another Too-Heys Noo!

Friday, December 26, 2003

It’s the end o’ Boxing Day and I’m knackered! We just went over to Queanbeyan (where James Bond lives) to see my Uncle and his family. Spent the afternoon playing with my 2nd cousin with his Thomas the Tank Train Set that Santa bought him. Apparantly Thomas was being continually attacked by The Wolfman. Only the intervention of Harold The Helicopter saved the day. What The?????

So I’m sitting here, typing this, talking to Mum, drinking a Too-Heys Noo and listening to an Altan album. That’s pretty good all at once!

Plus I found my sunnies that make me look like Doctor Octopus. “Phase One is complete….Now for Phase two…..” Found some cool cheap DVD’s at Sanity today: Clash Of The Titans and Trick Or Treat (with the best Ozzy Osbourne acting ever!)

Mum just said something silly: I said we should buy some crumpets tomorrow and she said “They may not have them at this time of year.” Are crumpets seasonal? Do you see two farmers standing round saying “Oh the holes aren’t ripe yet……?” Silly Mummy.

So I hope you all had an enjoyable break, and I hope I’ll see you soon.

Happy Christmas to everyone out there, including clones!

We listening to a bita Elvis while eating Brekkie. Mum still says Hi, Dad been bad so Santa didn’t come to him. Naughty boy!

Mum is going to be a big hacker soon. She’s got her Pee-Cee. Swears that she ain’t going to get on the net, much like I did. Soon you might be able to log onto davesmum.com and see mum’s blog.

Gonna go post this now, so Happy Christmas everyone, and hey…..Don’t be so Scottish!

Wednesday, December 24, 2003

Hi all. Mum and Dad have arrived here at Canberra and I’ve been showing off my Pee-Cee and Internet connections. Been doing useful research (trying to find Fairbridge Farm info , Found Dad’s name on a website. Spooky!) Just found out that my old Headmaster ain’t the headmaster no more. Yippeee!!!!!!
Mum and Dad say Hi to all the Dave-O-Holics. Dad’s pumping the bed up. What a man! (© Mum 2003)

I got two Days off . By the way hi to Droopy.! Mums now pumping up the inflatable mattress, she’s putting in a lot of effort. I think we should all sing “Swing Low, Sweet Chariot!” I get a go to pump the mattress up now! Bugger that really hurts my back. Pumping mattress is hard!

I went to Curtin Liquorland and bought a “slhlab”. Thought I’d got a bargain when it cost me just over $20. Turned out to be little tiny 250ml bottles. I feel so dainty. This is the size bottle that KT should drink.

I feel like doing a blinder all night tonight, but I suppose I’d better behave myself tonight since Mum’s here. Hi to Grand-dad, even though he’ll never probably read this….Just to let you know The weather is Bloody Hot here in Canberra.

Mums talking about lolly dispensers that are shaped like reindeer and they s&*t jellybeans! Brown jellybeans!
This is just too wacked!

My sweetie is clever! Yay sweetie!!

Gonna hafta go soon!

Bye ya!
I forgot to mention: I went and saw Peter Pan at the cinema yesterday. Wooooo! What a great film, (even though poor ol' Dave got weepy at the end during the big emotional scene) The Crocodile that hounds Captain Hook is really impressive! Yay! I really felt like reading the book, and found out I even have a copy of it on a free disc I got with my PC.

I'm giving Peter Pan 5 Dolphs out of 5!!!!!


Let's see how many links I can get in this entry.

Hmmm. It seems I might be netless over Xmas. Used the last of my pre-paid time last night playing Ancient Anguish. I was hooked on that game for yonks when I was at Uni
So unless I pick up some prepaid time at Dick Smiths tonight. I won't be able to update for a while. So won't be able to show Mum all the cool stuff I got on Hotmail and Yahoo!. Hafta go back to reorganising my comics though, to make room for Mum and Dad at my flat.

Ah well. Better get back to work.

As posted on The Librarydude!

What a library we work at! Not only are we scanning in the whole collection to correct errors in the catalogue, but we are doing it backwards! Starting at dewey 999 and going to 000. Yeah It's a scanning countdown!


Uh Oh! I just noticed that the current Alert Level has been raised from Bert to Ernie. This doesn't look good.........
Wheeeee! I just saw the Spider-Man 2 trailer on the official Spider-Man Site. My inner nerd is excited. I've always said that there should be more romantic scenes with cars being thrown through windows......

Yay Doc Ock!

Yay Spidey!

Sunday, December 21, 2003

Well I've been Proven Wrong.
After all my saying that I wasn't going to use the net much, here I is again all connected. (Truthfully Its only because I had a lot more credit that I realised on my pre-paid so I thought I'd use the time to download some proper and useful things) Such as; Realplayer, Flash!, QuickTime,......Goon Show Screensaver and Kung-Fu Cows. You know, really important stuff!

To see the Kung -Fu Cows click here. Thanks to the Rabid Librarian for pointing me to that one......

After being bitten by a radioactive bookworm, Dave developed superpowers. Stan Lee Presents…… The Amazing Y2Dave!

I’m all hyped up ready to type some scintillating stuff for my blog but now that I’m here I got no idea what it was that I was gonna say. I wish Mope was here, he’d tell me what to do (and it’d be good advice: like “Eat The Pudding ; Eat The Pudding ; Eat The Pudding ; Eat The Pudding ; Eat The Pudding ; Eat The Pudding ….” A big HI to Mum who could be reading this when she comes down here. Yay! Only a few days to go till I see my Mum! Hafta stock up on tea before she gets here so she can have a cup O’ the Hard stuff as soon as she walks in. And maybe Dad and I can take Igor out to the pub for a “schlab!”.

A man walks into a bar. He goes “OUCH!!!!” because it was an iron bar.

Panda hasn’t updated recently. Hope you Ok from the big social gathering of the year (aka KT’s cocktail night) You too DDD. That was a good night but I can’t see myself doing that again in a hurry. Not till I talk to my bank manager.

Yay! To Droopy for her news about employment. Don’t let those little Hellions get you too annoyed Droopy……

Civic Library has a quackin Duck. What The????? (For best effect say What The in a stupid voice like Rove McManus does) That Quacking Duck sounds a bit like the Penguin from Batman. Wak-wak-wak-waaakkkk!

Come on all you other Guys, when are you getting Blogs of your own??????

The best of Kingswood Country is on DVD! I'll hafta buy that tonight! I'll just grab the money from the fridge.

Quote of The Day
"The Kingswood! You're not taking the Kingswood! I just Mr Sheen'd the dipstick." -Ted Bullpitt
Hi all. It’s 11:45 pm on Thursday 18th and I’ve just returned home from a marvellous (which I can only spell because of the 12th Man song) drinks night with the Civic / Dickson clan. I’m brewing a strong (really strong!!!!!) cup O’ Coffee which I need right now. I’m really happy, I know I don’t say this often enough but Alicia, Michael, Elizabeth, Irina and KT (I Feel really guilty because I can’t pronounce your name correctly, SORRY!!) I just want to say that I love you all and I’m really glad that you are my friends. (And the same goes to Helen, Cass, Megsie, Ken, Paull, Droopy (Jeanette) , Julie, Richard, Tanya, Justine, Chris, Kate and all the other people who I’m too drunk to type their names correctly. Thanks for being there,and thanks for being exactly who you are . Don’t change for the world! I don’t tell you that enough even though I should…….To quote my song Of The Moment: I see your true colours and that’s why I love you….)

Wow! That was pretty deep and meaningful. Maybe it’s time for a patented Y2Dave joke. (and what great timing, My MusicJukebox program on my PC has just started playing the Spider-Man Theme. That lightened the mood……)

Q: When is a door not a door?
A: When it’s open……. (DAMN!!!!!!! Can I erase that????????!!!!!)

I saw a Scotsman scraping off his wallpaper…..
Oh? Was He decorating?
No. He was moving…….

What’s green, has 8 legs, and would kill you if it fell on you from out of a tree?
I don’t know. What’s green, has 8 legs, and would kill you if it fell on you from out of a tree?
A billiard table……

Quote Of The Day
“When this day is over, each of your Gods will know the meaning of a Justice League!” - J’onn J’onzz (The Martian Manhunter) in Justice League - Midsummer Nightmare # 2
OK. It’s now 12:12 am so I better stop now and get to bed. I’ll paste all this into BLOGGER tomorrow morning, so don‘t take any notice of the time on my post..

Bye all.

Two Yippees today. Firstly last night I was able to find an online copy of the Hippo Dog singing thing that Elena loves so much! Now I can show it to my Mum when she comes down here. She likes weird stuff like that. Second yippee is cause I got to sleep in this morning so I decided to expand my mind by taking in some quality film (ie Mystery Men). You gotta love a movie with a character called Casanova Frankenstein in it.

Quote Of The Day

“You can’t use a knife, sometimes?”
“No I cannot. I’m The Blue Raja, not…..Stab-man, or….Knifey-boy……….” - From Mystery Men

I’ve been listening to a bit of Eva Cassidy lately. Pity nobody really discovered her while she was still alive. She does the best rendition of True Colours that I’ve ever heard. That’s even compared to the original. Not often that a singer can improve on the original, except Elvis’ rendition of Blue Suede Shoes and Blue Moon Of Kentucky.

I’m going to investimagate (© 2003 DDD Words Inc) how to burn some cassettes to CD so I can get a proper copy of The Johnny Tapes and Coffee-Squad on disc. Been a long time since I could do one of those albums since my recorder is stuffed. I know not many of you have heard the Johnny Tape , (except Young Irish Jess!) so you got no idea what I’m yabberin on about, (though That’s nothing new) .

Just speaking to Mum. She and Dad are coming down on Christmas Eve. Yay again!

Lyric Of The Day

“See your true colours shining through, see your true colours, that’s why I love you……..” - Eva Cassidy (and Cyndi Lauper)

Man, this songs getting me all nostalgic……..

So Merry Christmas (or Happy Non-Denominational End Of Year Annual Seasonal Holiday) to all my readers and all my friends. I love you all…..especially Sancho.

Y2Dave (full of Festive Cheer, and soon to be full of Festive Beer)

Just a quick entry at the moment to say Welcome back To Dickson KT!!!!!!. We really enjoy having you back, we've missed you! (at least I've missed you, I really shouldn't talk for everyone)

Yay For The Day to KT

Y2Dave (misses the people at Civic too)

Song Of The Day
True Colours - Eva Cassidy

I spent an awful amount of time trying to send the infamous Hippo and Dog Mpeg to my personal e-mail today. tried to send it so Mum can have a look at it, and so I got some good funny stuff on my hard drive, (along with the 370+ minutes of Elvis songs).

Oh and Saddam has been found. So Georgy Porgy Dubya Man will be raving on about "the guy who tried to kill my Dad!" for ages plus an eon. For an actual proper account about this by someone who actually lives through this check out Where is Raed? (May not be updated yet though).


For a different experience Lets Go Camping Around Greece With Jim!

NewsFlash!

Elvis Presley Is alive and living in my hard drive. I’ve scanned a lot of my Elvis CD’s into it. I haven’t scanned a lot of the not so good stuff, but I already have over 370 minutes of Prime Choice Presley here! (And it’s all original stuff, not the remix crap that’s being forced on to the public these days).

Spent a bit of time trawling around the Internet last night trying to see what is really out there. The answer seems to be ( in order of quantity): Sex and Porn, “Free” Music , Sex and Porn, Sports, and Personal Pages / Blogs . So it seems my page here is rated about 5th. Okay, let’s redress this balance. I’m going to leave a space here which you can mentally fill with things from the first 4 catagories.

YOU FILTHY SWINES!!!!!!!!!!!
Woah! I’ve been listening to Elvis’ Aloha From Hawaii as I type this, and there are two things that point to the faking of his death. One, he was singing “My Way” (“And now the end is near……” and in Suspicious Minds , he changed the lyrics to “You know I’ll never lie to you. MMM MMMM No not much” !!!!!!

Hmmmmm……..

An Historic Day

Dave is writing this from his own loungeroom. He's finally on the Internet! Yippeeeeee!!!!!!!! Took me a while to get connected. I bought some pre-paid hours (through Bigpond) to try this out and see how much time I'll use on the net. Then I had problems getting set up. But I fixed 'em cause now I'm on the Net and ready to rock!!!!!!!


And I get a weekend off as well. Sorry DDD, but I can't work Sunday for ya!

Another thought from Librarydude, but nobody reads Librarydude! so I'll stick it here......

Satan is coming. Have you been Good?

This was what our Santa message would have looked like if we used spellcheck when we typed it. That'd go over well with the kiddies.

Trivia: Both Santa and Satan are known as "Old Nick" and they both wear red.

This is a printout of what's going through my brain at this moment:
"Eat The Pudding, Eat The Pudding, Eat The Pudding, Eat The Pudding, Eat The Pudding, Eat The Pudding, Eat The Pudding, Eat The Pudding, Eat The Pudding, Eat The Pudding, Eat The Pudding, Eat The Pudding, Eat The Pudding, Eat The Pudding, Eat The Pudding, Eat The Pudding, Eat The Pudding, Eat The Pudding, Eat The Pudding, Eat The Pudding, Eat The Pudding, Eat The Pudding, Eat The Pudding, Eat The Pudding, Eat The Pudding, Eat The Pudding, Eat The Pudding, Eat The Pudding, Eat The Pudding, Eat The Pudding, Eat The Pudding, Eat The Pudding, Eat The Pudding, Eat The Pudding, Eat The Pudding, Eat The Pudding, Eat The Pudding......................"

mmmmmm Simpsony good.........

Started reading a book about mathematics today and found a reprint of an article which made me laugh.

"CHICAGO , Dec 6 - Dr Samuel I. Krieger wore out 6 pencils, used 72 sheets of notepaper and frazzelled his nerves quite badly but he was able to announce today that 231,584,178,474,632,390,847,141,970,
017,375,815,706,593,969,331,281,128,078,915,826,259,279,871
is the largest known prime number.

He was unable to say offhand who cared."

From Dr Riemann's Zeros ,page 14 by Karl Sabbach, available in a library near you. My library to be precise.

Isn't mathematics fun!

Monday, December 08, 2003

I swear someone up above is teasing me today. I've had to serve no less than five attractive Irish women today. For anyone who knows me, you'll know the effect an Irish accent has on me when spoken by a lovely Oirish lass.

This posting originally appeared on The Librarydude! but I was so excited I had to post it here.

Yay! Ireland!!!!!!
A big Yay! to Megsie for her marvellous playing of her big violin this morning. Talented young lass she is......

Saturday, December 06, 2003

Yay! I got my CD burner to work properly. I just needed to slow it down. (Now it takes about 9-10 minutes to do a disc) So now I can get all the really good music from home and play it in the returns room. Cool stuff such as The Streak, Gitarzan, Surfin Bird and all the great stuff that used to be on 45s. This will help Dickson staff aquire good music taste.

Lyric Of The Day

"Well he's got a pet monkey who likes to get drunky, he sings Boogie-Woogie and it sounds real funky.......C'mon! sing one monkey!" - Gitarzan

Friday, December 05, 2003

I would like, (If I may), to take you on a ....strange journey.

Last night was a biggun. Its was the Civic lie-berry Xmas party and more importantly, KT’s farewell (which in my case is a welcome) A big Yay! to Young Jess and Deb who I didn’t expect to see. YAY! Have a happy Tree-Tirty guys! Special Yay Of The Day goes to Droopy for her continued insistance on saying things that qualify as a quote of the day, shocking! Her comments were lewd and lusty enough to make a sailor blush.
It was good our little mate was there to keep things sensible. By the way - "Hi to Sancho!"

I tried to “Burn” a Cee-Dee on my Pee-Cee yesterdee. It didn’t quite work properlee. Plays well in my PC but don’t work on my other CD players. Sort of defeated the purpose. I was going to make a CD for the returns room. Maybe I was burning it too fast, I’ll try again tonight with a slower burn speed.

Dave got a new piece of technology, me so excited! Specially now as I can play Age Of Empires without having to go to the Barracks.

By the Way. Hi to The Panda (who may later be doing some more…….Folk Dancing)

Y2Dave (Cold, wet and just plain scared!)

Wednesday, December 03, 2003

Im out of my hed
Oh hurry or I may be dead
They musnt carry out their evil deeds



My veels! My god! I can't move my veels!

I got my Pee-Cee today. Haven't had time to set it all up yet, so it looks like it'll be a long night of playing with technology tonight. And payroll have stuffed up my pay this week. I knew this place was staffed with hippies!

Tuesday, December 02, 2003

I'm not in a good mood so don't push it. And I bet some hippy is going to push me over the edge today. I fell off the wagon last night (best thing I've done for a week) and the frickin thing ran over me. Some guy in the Tray-Dees had an epileptic seizure while I was there and some old bat was complaining about it! I wanted to slap her in the face (with the hardcover book I was reading). Some people deserve no respect at all!

I wish Rolf was here. As well as certain other people. F**k I'm getting depressed.

Screw this.....If I feel better later on I'll give you a Quote of The Day, but don't count on it.

YBlueDave

Monday, December 01, 2003

I'm so broke......Bought my new PC on Saturday (got a free printer as well!) but it's not going to be delivered until Wednesday. Bugger. Dopey Harvey Norman idiot tried to charge me extra for a monitor which was included in the price. Cheatin little $%#%!!!!!

So Dave has finally entered the 20th century. Pity it is now the 21st.

I saw Sancho yesterday. He's a funny ol fella.

It's been a long time since I had one of these so here is todays
Quote Of The Day
