Life and Death

Here's one to think about: imagine if the stories about your whole life flashing before your eyes before you die can be taken as `true`, broadly speaking. The most esteemed Mr. Terry Pratchett has used this as an excuse for a joke given, as his best lines often are, to his own favourite anthropomorphic personification - Death - in the form of the lines (between Death and a very-recently-deceased person. Hint: Death's lines are the ones in capitals );   `Isn't my life supposed to pass in fro

Healed Heart: I've found my love!

Yup, its true. I have found a partner that can stay with me on the long journeys of life, can support me when I need it most, and can keep me going through the most difficult uphill struggles.   And, one that can really help me go places. Or should that be two....   Yup, I have fallen in love with 2, peop.... things, err. Ok my new true love is a pair of Nike Air Max 360s, and what a pair of trainers they are!! Oh, I never thought I'd see the day   Even I didn't expect those kind of gu

Broken guns, healed heart.

Yeah yeah, valentines - schmalentines. I'm going for a beer ......     Now about the whole idea of lending guns out to people, right? Well you know the kind of people that you would trust with them, and the kind of people that you wouldn't. So to say that I was apprehensive about my birthday skirmish the day before yesterday would be putting it mildly ....   There were people I did trust (Jason, The Other Tim, Dave (Shard) and Dan (well, mostly, He's hyperactive by nature but we never act

ARSSES. What an appropriate moniker.

Intolerant squaddies with IQs below 100? perhaps.   Heres's my thought for them. Lets see if they can actually discuss it, or will they just dismiss it without addressing any of my points? I think we all know whats gonna happen   Wonder why no-one wants to join the ranks of sub-par intelligence disrespectful thug squaddies anymore     http://www.arrse.co.uk/cpgn2/Forums/viewto...start=2190.html     And I said; "Ahhh yes, hello!!

An evening with Evil Hippy

`It was just a day like any other, no-one expected it to turn out like this... `   Actually, it really was just another generic evening of mindless drinking and smoking, so I decided to make an event of it, with what little resources I had, namely;   Me My mate Matt 16 beers (yo ho ho) A quantity of a rather controversial relaxant Guns, lots of guns 1/4 bottle of V.S.O.P. Champagne Cognac Fresh fillet steak Camera phone Egg Ammo, & Nothing better to do.   .

A wish, a prayer, & an MP5K.

The above mentioned MP5K arrived last Wednesday - the Marui AEG version (I wanted it to still work next week ) - and I am pretty much stunned by it even now. Its the 10th Marui AEG I've got and it is, simply, one of the best.   I wasn't expecting it to be at all, but the only immediate differences between any other AEG and this little puppy are the barrel lengths and the obvious aesthetics. An M14 may have the longestestest barrel ever, but in all but open woodland or a field this little bab

A New Arena.

I am hugely impressed and shocked that something as cool as this: http://www.arniesairsoft.co.uk/forums/inde...ndpost&p=638612 is allowed to happen in airsoft.   I mean, come on?!!! Why the hell are we p**sing around in some woodland with rhododendrons and artificial 'nam villages when there's this abandoned factory area over in sunny Spain that looks pretty much like every cool urban invasion movie ever?!   Health and safety would throw a fit of course, but hey, screw 'em If i

Straight past your nose and turn left at the elbow

Bloody London cabbies, right? They are famed throughout the country (`nay, even the world!` according to the gushings of the olympic planning committee ) for their unrivalled knowledge of the cit streets.   Even apart from this, you would imagine that the coppers who are on guard duty at the bloody houses of freakin' parliament would know their way around the immediate area of the City, would you not?   Evidently not, as it happens, because we were sent in many directions other than the c

Hippiecrites

Went out to a `rave` (messy, debauched underground-style mashup, for those that don't quite know) at Londons swanky SE1 nightclub on Friday, totally on a whim and a late and random invitation; it turned out to be pretty much identical to a festival but indoors - under a railway bridge in Lambeth in fact - in a cavernous series of rooms in the dank and seedy underbelly of UK nightlife ( i.e. the best part).   Turns out it was run by and for ......   peace-lovers advocating hate ( ) busy ma

Bad Job here. Not positive news.

Spare a thought for the 27 year-old woman and her daughters who have to listen today as my old man and th parish priest go to see them in a hospice, and tell them that the mother will almost certainly be dead this time tomorrow   Its a funny thing when you come downstairs in the morning and Dad drops somthing into the conversation along the lines of "I have to go and see that lady in XXXXX Hospice and tell he she has one day to live"   Its a little hard to manage your toast and muesli aft

Travellers: Gypsy Myths.

I've put this in the media section because....well because its lonely in there right now And the only place most of you will have heard about them or have any information about them is from the media. Maybe the odd encounter, but most likely the media.   Travellers (as they like to be called) are a mixed bag. The reason I know so much is that I have daily contact with many of them, and am quite close to many more.   As far as I am concerned this is unfortunate, and you can leave a large

Flavourless Gravy Train.

Hmm. We have, usually, 4 people in our office to do admin, sales, delivery, damage limitation etc. Basically everything necessary to run the business except the accounts and the labouring.   I am one part of this 4-strong team and I do as much, if not more than my fair share.   I also do everything `IT`, I am the companies IT, all me on my own.

Thought of the Day.

Collective nouns. You get a gaggle of geese, a murder of crows, a lodge of beavers, a pack of dogs, a litter of puppies, a parliament of owls, a destruction of wildcats (apparently ).   The collective noun for English sportsmen will forever in my mind be a Failure.   A failure of English sportsmen. Beautiful.   I used it to describe a group of marshals to one of them (Combat) at GZ, nice to have good humoured people like Combat who can take a joke

A Fist Full of Hollers

The satisfaction at watching your latest victim wince and recoil in pain, the exquisite pleasure as the hapless unfortunates line up with pride in their hearts, only to fall in agony before your merciless attacks, mmmmm….. There is a delicious satisfaction simply listening to the screams and hollers from those who have been blistered and stung by your own hand, their weltered faces and limping frames testament to your domination…..   Evilhippy hasn’t gone to the dark side – I got there year

*fruitcage* this. I am *fruitcage* furious.

I am so *fruitcage* ING *fruitcage* ING *fruitcage* ING ANNOYED RIGHT NOW!!!!!!!!   I have *just* spent well over 2 hours writing up an entry about today, full of carefully researched (for once) links and, although I say it myself, some rather good content and material I would have liked to have kept for the sake of improving my writing, if nothing else.   The server had too many connections. It lost all of it and the clipboard was not full of the latest copy of it because it contained on

Sold now't, Kimber inbound!

A blatant excuse to half-inch Havoc's entry title o' course (and where the hell are the rest of 'em, eh?? ) and just because I know nothing about Kimbers other than the distinctive look of the wider slide hatchings, and of course that lovely calligraphilicious logo doesn't mean I can't harp on about how nice its gonna be to have one.   I think I may have actually done this little shindig before, but hey, I'm prepared to go through it all again   Because the thing it will most importa

Ritalin, or Cashcard & Scissors?

Another forumite in the form of Shard (hey Dave ) from came round last night, and it has thrown my dozy, minute attention span into sharp relief.   Halfway through taking an RK-104 into pieces I was, to be quite honest, losing interest in the whole shebang, and for no good reason. We were there to try and fix the bloody accuracy on it and see whats what with the weirdness, but, like everything I do to entertain meself, I found my mind wandering and I was not as engaged in the process as I sh

More Double Dealings....

*gets on Soap Box*   Anyone who has ever used a bittorrent client for downloading all those licensed and legal songs that are so readily & cheerfully released by the record labels (yes, both of them) knows all about this idea of `leeching`.   I got my IP blocked from Azureus (note the lack of linky) a few days ago despite all my files having been allowed to run to a share ratio of at least 1:1, and in some cases as much as 5.5:1 or thereabouts - thats the fair measure to show you have

Oops, I did it again.

I was looking for how I had managed to smash a lightbulb this morning ...... after a 4-pack of Grolsch and a bottle of half-decent white wine on a Tuesday night I usually find myself looking for quite a few things.   Sobriety being one of them, an appetite being the other main one.   I was blatantly still p*ssed walking to work this morning, I would have been run down at the traffic lights if the usual thing had happened where some impatient sod runs the red light, thankfully though the g

Ooooohh, New Shoes! (guns, actually)

Shoes? F**k that. I have consistently failed to buy any footwear for over 2 years now, as Jason will surely attest   What I care about most right now (apart from world peace, the sanctity of god and Burger King) is my new toybox - due to arrive either late on Thursday or midday Friday. I counted; as any good airsoft geek should.   It contain 4 new guns, and more importantly, the means to fully operate another 3 guns to boot.   Yay me. I will have at least 8 fully operational and skirmi

Happiness Becomes You.

I'm just a bit miffed about something on the radio this morning; apparently the 24th of Janruay is widely believed to be the most depressing day of the year.   To whoever thought of making that public: f**k off mate, you couldn't think of anything else to do that day? Most people won't feel any better tomorrow just because its not today, but they might well feel a bit worse now that you've told them they probably should. Asshat.   So I say b*ll*cks to that, have a free smile on me and m

Swearing. Big and clever: official!

I'm putting this under `alcoholism` because I've had a few ..... You might be able to tell   The point I am (digressively) trying to make is; swearing is big, and it is clever. Go on, try it; swear a bit. Doesn't it make you feel mature, in some strange, esoteric way? 'Course it does. You wouldn't know those words if you were only 4 years old now, would you? That is the very definition of esoteric, and the very reason that swearing is both prized and feared by our youth.   Precisely.

Techno-Balls.

***WARNING*** Contains sanitised swearwords   It wont be as long as the last one, promise ....   Anywho: I pay attention to the WebProNews e-mails I get (daily, so it seems) and I try to keep at least one partially-deaf ear to the ground on such tech-related and internet post-modernisms as these newsletters (usually w**king on about how much google rule and how everyone wants to be their b*tch ) yet I find myself at odds with one thing they keep mentioning.   iPods, and more specif

M4: serial rape victim.

You'd think she would learn by now, wouldn't you?   Maybe a can of Tactical RIS-Capable Mace would be of better use than another knockoff surefire and a fake PEQ box ....   Lemme clarify, its your gun, you're more than welcome to stick any amount of tactical equipment to it that you like, and I do rape the hell outta some of my guns anyway so I can't exactly take the `moral high ground` in this issue, if indeed there actually is one.

12-Gauge Glory.

Soooo....... we're having the 8th member of my rather greedy and self-indulgent shotgun family arriving soon, they're coming to dinner - and they may just stay the night ......   Actually, strictly speaking (or typing), that's a metaphor that could be better employed elsewhere, to when I had the pleasurable company of a Tac Launcher for a couple of nights, before it went off to someone else; who had actually paid for it.   This new shottie is in fact another of the same Marui series of sho
