Poker at Mike Tyson’s House

Whose Idea was it to relaunch ObscureInternet.com and update it daily? When I find out who is responsible I will kill them, because the extra workload is killing me. It’s also the main reason the updates came to a quick halt, but I’m making an effort to get some staff for ObscureInternet and to update this blog.

In personal news I’ve returned to the Gym once after taking a three week break over Christmas. I’ve put on some weight, and I’m finding it hard getting back into a routine so I can get back to the Gym.

This update is a bit negative, so I’ll give you a bit of good news Conor has got to the stage where he laughs his head of when some one farts in a cartoon and Zoe Salmon’s fan site has been updated.

Four updates in four days? You must think it’s Christmas or perhaps it’s my new years resolution to update my blog, well it’s neither, however I will come back to my new year resolution in a moment.

I mention Christmas first. Santa’s certainly swelled the Autobot and Deception ranks for both my and Conor, Have a look at our collections now…

As well as my Robot Masters Optimus Prime,  Robot Masters Starscream. I also got a Energon Optimus Prime Pen,  Transformers DVD and Star Wars Revenge of Sith DVD as well as some other gifts. Conor’s most notable gift (he got too many to mention) was A Nintendo DS and Nintendogs, I’ll leave the details of this for now as it’s a whole update to itself.

So on to the subject of New Years Resolutions, Last years Resolutions were;
Stop downloading and watching specialist video files. – Well I stopped downloading them, watching is another matter
Study for my MCSA and take the first exam in February           – I took and passed my first MCP but no more.
Spend less time mindlessly browsing the Internet – Erm, a small amount of success here
Get fit (and maybe join a Gym)- I joined a Gym
Buy a house.- Not even close

So taking into account last years progress this years resolutions are;
Stop downloading specialist video files.
Everyday is a school day. Study for my ITIL and take the exam in February and keep going after this.
Spend less time mindlessly browsing the Internet
Keeping going to the Gym, and find some more activities to do.
Clear my Debts
Improve social skills
Stop fucking swearing (boom-boom)
Improve my Basic English skills.

I’ll keep you updated on how they are going…

Look three days and three updates! Wow.

Recently I’ve also been messing about with Social Networking site such as MySpace, Sitespace, Tagworld, Faceparty and Google’s Orkut. I’ve some invites to give away for Orkut, do something nice and I’ll give you one(!)

These sites are quite addictive, however they are not keeping my away from updating ObscureInternet.com, have you had a look at it yet? If not, yet not? Go now, please…

How should I know? What I can tell you is I’ve just finished read ‘Legend?’ By Bernie Slaven. It’s the first book I’ve read in quite a while and I’m must say I agree with what he says about Malcolm McDonald.

Happy new stuff and that….

Ok, I've been spending a lot of time getting ObscureInternet.com for Jan 2nd and then I've have a few problems, A crash where a lost of load of website data, car problems, a couple a virus and a busy busy time at work (the real work that pays), these lead to me having to write ObscureInternet as the last minute. Other bad signs are, that was over my bandwidth limit for December before the site had even launched (thanks to some stupid IBM spider).

But go click the link below and look at obscureinternet.com as it's finally up and running (Sort off)
