Classic Comics

Umm well yes - this is Will Shakespeare's Macbeth in full Graphical Glory! and I mean full - the unabridged version of the Scottish Play...

One of my favs I must say... I am extremely tempted to purchase this just to get my head around the way the artist can, in the comic world, show this tortured story of betrayal and horror.

They have also done a "Quick text" version which translates Will great writing into modern speech - not the way I intend to read it but I guess it would appeal to some people and at least they will get the story line and idea of what Will wrote.

If you are interested an Australian online book dealer can be found here. Rest of the world go here (I could only find the Plain Text version but if you have time to search try for the Original Full Text).

If I buy it I will inform you all of my opinion - if it is worth writing! :)



Ok I found some examples of the different versions of text



Original Text

Plain Text



Quick Text

I know which one I like the best... "They started to WIN"... hahahaha such a comic book line - not quite the same ring to it that Will had but I guess it still is right... sort of??!?!?!

Worms Eat my Flesh...

The Cure and Ballet... Hmmm Thoughts?

News on internet... we has it!!! WooT ofcourse that would be better if my computer was now not at the repair place (my friends house) getting a re install and re build - but hey when it gets back I can gets on the nets at home. ATM we (Anjel and I) are sharing a 'puter so no joint WoW is occuring and that makes me sad... By the time I get back on the next expansion will be out! HA

Work news I start another short term contract for 8 weeks although this time I will be only working 5 days a week not 7 like last time and this position my even turn into a perminant Mon- Fri job so I can give up the weekend work and Anjel and I can have a day off together ... scared? Hell yeah!!!

Stealing Friends Bandwidth

Fed up with stealing internets from work I am now at a friends place for a Barbie 'Que (that is the posh way to write it do'tcha know). Anyhoo so I choose to ran away from the crowd and blog here to the one person who may still be reading this blog - Hello you.

So anyway, this girl comes to the party with a three week old kitten who has been abandoned by it's mother and she has been having trouble feeding it... after watching the hostess struggle with the poor little thing I stepped in and asked to have a go. I took kitty in hand, held it's little arms down so it wouldn't get in the way and simply put the little syringe in it's mouth and gave him foods. It was so cute to feed the little thing - if only Anjel was not allergic to Cats... they are my favourite. I do Love little Cookie and Henry (our pups) but a cat is just such a lovely little pet especially when it cuddles into you and wants pats.

Oh well one day.

Oh Anjel and I made a deal - if I buy her a special Bridle for her horse (approx $200) I can get Guitar Hero 3 for the Wii - ofcourse with my Computer woes and no internet problems I think that I will be having to buy a new computer and have the cash to pay for the internet before I get anything else. Of course Anjel has - or will soon - have her Horse Float back (over $1200 to fix and register!!) (not that I complain we did get a good deal and a new one would have cost us MUCH MUCH more) oh well such is life... Hmmm maybe I should do my tax from last year and see what I can get back and use that for a new computer... easier then saving..

Ok hope you is all well...

Love Hugs and Kisses but no sex on the first date!!!

Future Thoughts

I have been absent for some time now - we still do not have Broadband and I will not lament that state of affairs in this post - needless to say the Internets in Australia need an over haul and I hope a re structure.

Any hoo - I have a job interview on Wednesday for a Full Time position at Council - Woot to me!!! That means I will be earning about the same as Anjel and at last we can really start to plan for a better future... what the Mortgage and all we really need to get ahead on that so we can build up equity and look for other things we can invest in for our financial future.

So I have been having Future Thoughts... what will life be like with a new job - permanent high levels of income... well for a start we can pay off a few debts and start looking forward to a time when we can get a new bathroom or a new kitchen or a newer car or even a new computer or an Xbox360 for me!!!

For a start I think I would settle for a new hard drive - I am having issues with my C-drive and I think my Video card need new drivers or else I might need a new card as well... spots on my monitors... yuck!

Well that is a start to the return of the Strange Blog... hopefully now that I at least have dial-up I can update some things on here and stay in touch with ya'all!

No Internets

That's right folks after the move and Christmas we still have no internets so this site will be a while in the hiatus state...

Stay tuned I will be back... just as soon as AAPT gets sorted.

Lunch

I am at work today... like every other day :) not that I am complaining - I thought to myself the other day was I working only to have bragging rights to complain about it?!?!?! Sometimes I worry that I do things only to have the opportunity to complain about it. I don't trust me on that - I do things A) because I canna say NO B) I really worry about money and having not enough C) I don't actually dislike working... Anyhoo this was not what I was writing about.

I nearly feel asleep at work today in the small lunch room we have here (more like a coffee cubicle!). I went in and made my sandwiches, got the paper and read and ate, taking my time to have a relax when I felt my eyes drop, and my breathing get shallow, and I thought "Crap I am about to fall asleep!!" So I got up and went back out to work early just so I would not sleep.

We talked about that for a bit and I remembered I had seen somewhere people having power naps at work and I thought would that be something useful to me? So I wiki'd it and it might be a useful tool especially as I am a little busy atm.

• Caffeine nap
  A caffeine nap is a cat-nap that was preceded by the intake of a caffeinated beverage such as coffee, tea, or an energy drink. A caffeine pill can be used as well.
  To be most effective you must take the source of energy quickly and be able to fall asleep within minutes afterwards. Otherwise the energy source will begin to work and will prevent you from falling asleep. With this in mind, the energy pills will get absorbed slower than the energy drink and might be the best choice.
  Once asleep the energy source will begin to enter your system and will wake you up in the normal time frame of a cat-nap (20-30 minutes). Once woke you will have the energy from the nap and a boost from the energy source as well.

This interests me the most - hehehehe Caffeine and sleep in the same step!!! Occurs I would then need to find a place to sleep at work...

In the mean time I am using the time old system of burning the candle at both ends whilst in taking large quantities of caffeinated beverages. Of course this has the side effect of making me a grumpy bum - but in the interest of the capitalist lifestyle we live in - I AM A GOD!!!

Thank you good night...
