Well, either this guy or holding a Loggerhead Turtle. :)

He was today's highlight as well...feeding him fishies as he was sitting on my foot was just adorable. And he's heaps better, so he'll be going back to The Wild soon. :)

Today's intakes included a very sick Giant Petrel and White-Bellied Sea Eagle, both amazing birds, and I'm not even into birds... the Petrel projectile vommed out some fish and doesn't look good unfortunately. Smells fucking awful, that's for sure...

Most of the possums have been released, as have a couple of other penguins, but I might have to steal this gorgeous lil' guy. ^^

What an awesome day.
:love:

can i get an opinion on this? i've read they dug out some old Richey lyrics and tried to make it sound like the good ol' times. the review made that sound like a bad thing but if that's the case i might buy it.
It's excellent from start to finish. All the lyrics are Richey's, but this has no bearing on the actual music. It's typically dark in subject matter, but jollyed right up with Wire's positive bent. More Generation Terrorist than Holy Bible, I love it.

Lucky you're drunk, cobber, otherwise I might just think you're a bit of a penis.

did 3 reinstalls on pc's , they are all up and running fast . partitioned my 200 gig drive , did a 40 gig back up file transfer 2 ways . bought some ram for cheep , fixed my 512 meg ram video card . put a floppy and dvd burner in my new slimline garbage picked pc (its the coolest looking slimline). installed command and conquer 3 on two machines and it deathmatches fine . really didnt think that would work but the slower one does have a 128 meg video card . the whole thing only costed me 20 bucks for this upgrade . i was sure i would have to buy another expensive hard drive . one of them did crap out , but it was only a 40 gig . i get those for 10 dorra from the korean . will prolly redo 2 more machines , every year or so it really helps to reinstall everything . shit runs great for a while after that .
got a new antivirus , new winrar , registry cleaner , and virtual drive software , all clean "freeware" heh . i just want to ditch my dvd utility , this roxio easy media creator is slow ass bloatware . i swear it doesnt run resident but adds a minute plus to boot and shut down ?!?!

any sugesstions ? i just need a fast small dvd burning / cd burning utility .

maybe tommorow i will monkey with my virtual private network deal and teamspeak so i can do some gaming with my old drummer in AZ . prolly not though !

him and my old guitar player accused me of modding cause i spank their ass' in red faction . :lol:
both of my kids are better than me at that game .

that roxio shit really bogs , and i am not into nero .

Just get a trimmed version of Nero. Tailor it. Roxio is shit.

Ashampoo is one I used to use a PC with hardware incompatible with Nero (incompatible with Nero? Fuck off! :lol:) - Ashampoo was alright. I also used Alcohol 120% as well when I used to do a lot of cue/bin fiddling (before Nero got patched to do this. I quite liked alcohol but never used it for DVD.

I have the "does everything except manufacture marmite as a byproduct" version and it gives you a customizable install and I quite like it. I use it in conjunction with DVD shrink when I'm borrowing film.

listened to a Depeche Mode cover - Stripped, by Rammstein.
funny, I don't like both bands but I did like this enough to be the highlight of my day.

The City of El Cajon is doing something good for once...they're repaving our street..and the surrounding streets :love:

Last time they "fixed" our streets years ago all they did was fill in the cracks :?
