blog upgrade

Wednesday, June 30th, 2004

Well I finally got around to upgrading the blog. Nucleus had been released in version 3.0 since last time, mine was 2.0. Then I discovered Blog:CMS which is a clone of some kind, decided to go for it as it has a bunch of neat plugins. :party: Well maybe not, I use very few of them and the one thing I have been looking for (song of the day) is not among them. :lazy:

I also found out there would be a lot of hacking involved, mainly css, as the default skins were not all that pleasant. :wallbang: So after two days the blog looks somewhat acceptable and I don’t have it in me to do anymore.

EDIT: wohoo, got a “now playing” plugin installed and working :party:

Public Enemy

Wednesday, June 30th, 2004

Public EnemyThe other day I got a chance to listen to some old Public Enemy records from the album “He got game”, official soundtrack for the movie of the same name. Most of the stuff is a bit to dull for my liking but there are some diamonds on it as well. Notably the following tracks.
“He got game”
“House of the rising son”
“Resurrection”
“What you need is Jesus”

I have to get around to watching the movie some time as well.

5/10

I really liked the lyrics for “What you need is Jesus” so they’re given below.

Conspiracy? HELL YEAH!!!!

Wednesday, June 23rd, 2004

In light of the inevitably stupid claims over conspiracy as Italy was once again fairly eliminated for a lackluster performance, I decided to write a piece on how ridiculous this propaganda is..

Disclaimer: If you are ill at ease because of Italy’s premature exit from Euro2004 or KoreaJapan02, you shall discontinue reading this post.

“Scrubs”

Tuesday, June 22nd, 2004

The first time I heard about this serious was about 6 months ago but I never got the chance to see it cause it wasn’t aired here. But I have finally come to appreciate the quality, Scrubs is excellent! What amazed me the most is how well written the first episode was. You get to know all the characters right away and it’s done very well. Elsewhere you might see attempts to span it over several installments or feel that you barely know the people. In this case, everything fell right into place at the very start and already then I knew I would love the rest. The biggest talking point to me is how well crafted the senior characters are. Both Cox and Kelso are terrific as actors and as characters. On top of that you got the janitor, I love that little inset everytime.
