You are all cordially invited to my quaint and low-pro 21st birthday (super-awesome) Dinnerama . it will take place at Tropika, the Malaysian restraunt on Calgary Trail, at 7:00 this coming Thursdsay evening. please RSVP so that i will know whether or not i should correct the number of seats i've already reserved. queries, and comments should be directed to my email or cell (970-3728).

ps: for the love of God, please don't get me anything- i'm too old for that kind of thing, and it's about 85% against my religion anyways. besides, a much more appreciated gift would be that you show up for the Dodgeball (yuh huh!) party i plan on throwing in the near future. i'll keep you posted.

who's this email everyone's talking about? why's he so popular all of a sudden?

Hey Percy, there's a direct way that you can get in touch with Eric electronically. They've set up this brand new thing called electronic mail (e-mail). You don't have to post your messages where everyone can read them now. You can send it straight to Eric.

Okay, I've been enough of a dick. Here's something you folks may enjoy, though. In my continuing effort to catalog everything humorous that's remotely worthwhile to look at, listen to, or watch, I bring you:

I'll also be gone for vacation and I was hoping to hang on to the cds for trip music

Hey Eric, I was wondering if I could hang on to those cds for like 10 more days?

Going on vacation so I won't be seeing you guys for a week. I got a 6 on that course I took for four evil months Yeah! Well see you guys later.

OOOOOOOOOOOOOOO, I am the ghost of rossland past come here to change your futures... MAn that was funny, see what I'm reduced to out here.
ANyways... uhh... screw you Paras.

Having problems with violation of copyright law? (RIAA listen up) All you need is creative edutainment to get the message across:

Don't Copy That Floppy

As Tony pointed out to me, every cultural diet needs its recommended daily intake of cheese. Here's today's generous helping, brought back from the days of Oregon Trail and floppy disks.

as . . . ready as I'll ever be

Thanks for the support guys. I hope it pays off tomorrow.

Back to the worms. For those of you struck by this worm (for example, our family computer was just hit today because some idiot decided to let it through the firewall. Don't get me started on that), Sun is now opening early registration for their new OS (not that they're taking advantage of this or anything). Actually the info is on their website here.

This is supposedly a low cost (about 1/4 of Windows) operating system. It's built over Linux, but offers the usability and user-friendliness of Windows. I'm not sure how this will turn out, but if anyone can offer an effective and popular alternative to Windows, maybe it's Sun. And who knows, maybe it'll turn out like this:
