A key ingredient of Guiness has to be….

Ya know I’m pretty convinced that a key ingredient of Guiness has to be sulphur… man I had a few Guiness last night (when I say a few I mean more then a couple but less then alot) and starting sometime around midnight last night and through 7:30 tonight every last fart has smelled like sulphur

And suddenly you stop… and try to think to yourself why oh why do I read this garbage ?

I always seem to have the best posts after I’ve spent the weekend hanging out with Curtis… probally has something to do with the fact that when I hang out with Curtis strange shit happens… like sulphur farts. But that is why Curtis is married to Krissy… she keeps his ass babysat so make sure nothing too bad happens to him… and if she’s feeling kind me too!

One of these days I’m going to be returning that whole baby sitting thing whether it be by actually babysitting them or something of theirs (like a dog or something like that).

OK moving on… I’ve also decided that going to bars in Phoenix/Tempe is much more fun (for me at least) then bars in Vegas because I can breathe at the bars in Phoenix they are filled with smoke and not packed as tight as a can of sardines.

That and bars in Phoenix are a lot less pretenious then the bars in Vegas. I can go as my black t-shirt self and blend right in down in Phoenix.

Yeah Phoenix bars are defintly more my speed.

3 cheers for “Rula Bula”!

A question for all you DATA freaks out there

So there I was in line at Hastings when I say the 2005 edition of the big book of movies (not the real name to protect the idiots who published it).

Why on earth would someone pay $24.95 for something that can be gotten off the internet for FREE.

Even if you don’t have the internet at your house you are still coming out ahead if you drive you SUV that gets horrible gas mileage to the nearest internet station to do the reaseard and then go home!

Hell I can download that entire book… put into a SD Card… and put it in my iPaq and BAM! RIGHT THERE AT MY FINGERTIPS!. Next year when the 2006 version comes out I pay 5bucks and BAMMAGE AGAIN!

Do yourself a favor go listen to some Pink Floyd.

Got P.A.C.S.

You know when I took this promtion 6 months ago I knew there would be overtime involved… and I was told alot of overtime would be involved. I am know just begining to realize how much over time is involved.

I’m on the end of a 15 hour day at work. As I sit thinking about what I did while I have a beer and my beef bbq burrito. I think to myself… ya know I may be a dumbass but I’m a pretty smart dumbass. Let me explain…..

3 years ago when I started the current job I was brought in to work on a surgery charting system. Now mind you I was less then 3 months out of school and had only ever worked in a grocery store. I literrally went from checking grocries to learing how surgrey was done in the course of a week. That wasn’t so bad my mom is a nurse so it wasn’t totally new to me and I pick up pretty quick on things.

Flash forward to 6 months ago and the PACS administrator job lands in my lap… Now let me explain PACS to you… in it’s most simpliest terms PACS is a way of taking x-rays (and x-ray related procedures) digitally and never printing a hard copy as a regular part of your work flow. Now to put this in perspective… we cannot take down the x-ray dept. ever. Oh and don’t forget you still need to get ER orders read real quick.

That is in it’s simpliest form that I can put it is PACS.

The thing that blows my mind is Nursing and x-ray have two diffrent lingo’s and I’m speaking passable x-ray and passable nurse. Someday I amaze even my two brain cells.

OK beer is gone… time to get ready for bed and start again tommrow!

The end of the world as we know it. Or how I learned to stop worrying and just accept the Simpsons are just silly.

How’s that for a title?

You know I’m very much of the thought that the Simpson’s tree house of horror special has no real place on television after Halloween. And anymore it really has no place on the TV period. But that is just my thought.

Anyway I’ve been listening to Pearl Jam all weekend (which is somewhat proper since it’s been gray and raining all day today) and I’ve decided that to me personally. Ten (the first album from 92) is not their best work. I think their best work is either “Yield” or “Riot Act” Those are my two favorite Pearl Jam Albums. Of course I’m probally the only person I know that tries to keep up with current Pearl Jam you know the whole no video thing.

The no video thing is a a real testament (at least to me) as to how good a group Pearl Jam is. It’s been 10 years since their last commercially successful video and they still sell more records per album then most groups could ever hope to do over the course of their entire carreers. That is just my thought though. Most of (actually all from the last album) Peral Jam videos are mainly of the band playing their instruments. Nothing very flashy just something to put up on whatever music channel still plays music.

Tom Petty is on iTunes right now. I guess I’m just in a sedate mood at the moment.

All hollow’s event

You know I think Halloween is just fundemtially screwed up for the following reasons.

1. The simpson’s tree house of horror is on next week… a full week after halloween and not to night.

2. I’ve had more then a few adult tricker-treaters. Granted they were with their kids but still…

3. I blew threw 5 bags of candy in 1.5 hours. I guess I was being to generous.

Yeah those are my gripes about halloween.

Milwaukee’s Beast…..

Oh man…. there is just something so wrong about a beer buzz from Miller Lite.

It’s not just wrong it’s actually unholy.

Very unholy.

I think the only thing more unholy then a Milwaukee’s Beast beer buzz is possibly the Cardnials winning the super bowl and possibly that Britney Spears hasn’t posed nude in Playboy yet. It’s gotta be a matter of time. It’s just got to be.

At this point I will settle for Pink.

The secret to life lies within….

Your local Japense steak house… you know those joints where they cook the food right in front of you…mmm so good… .so much food… handy tip do not mix rice and beer….. goes POOOFFF in your stomach and then your full. Though I think what really did me in was the burger at lunch.

So yeah I like going to school in Milwaukee it’s a pain in the ass to travel, but the food is worth it. I think the real secret is to come with a director of a deptartment that way you keep getting wined and dined.

Yeah it’s cold… it’s cold today like Kingman would be on it’s worse day of winter. So that pretty much tells me right there why I live in Arizona and not the upper midwest. That and I have a severe distate for snow.

I saw a liscence plat on a New Beetle today that said “UNIXBUG” I thought it was very cool however it was from Utah so that means they probally worked for SCO and SCO is evil boys and girls.

So I have a number of friends blogs that I hit when I travel it helps with breaking up the boredom and since none of my Instant messenger accounts or email work I’m pretty much limited to this and the IRON boards for outside communication. Tonight I was making the rounds and Brandi typed the following “ i wish i could be like tom and come up with really clever subjects. but nope.” well Brandi I’m now going to provide you with the secret to my “clever subject lines”

Let it flow” Pay no attention to who you may offend and just let what ever is on your mind out in a subeject. It also helps that I get copious amounts of this at work and on the IRON boards. That helps just remember if it offends someone then 10 other people found it funny. If it’s your audience that is something else entierly.

Ok now it’s time to work on left overs.

From the land of beer and cheese…

Well 24 hours in Milwaukee and what do I have to say for myself… well for one thing I’ve now had more alchol here in the last 3 hours then I did the entire week I was here before. Got to love traveling with clinical folks.

Kind of a intersting dynamic that goes on with clinical people, they are very friendly and work with each other and you get the feeling that they probally hang out together with each other on a regular basis outside of work. At least the one’s I’m travelling with. Which is a stark contrast to myself who really just keeps to himself and doesn’t pay much attention to anything. What can I say I’m a loner… alway have always will be (probally)

I don’t know, I think being a loner is just a much apart of me as my love of beer and computers. I remember growing up that it used to drive me up the walls that my brother wouldn’t leave me alone. Now it still drives me up the walls that he won’t leave me alone. Just now he only drops by every couple of days and does not live in the next room over.

I think the biggest problem I’ve always had with the work that I do when it comes to working with other people is the generation gap. I think just relating to the older generation is the part that I have the most problems with. I see my self as their equal… they see me as a kid at least initall I don’t know about after a while. For me it’s just odd, damn my parents and their strong work ethic up brining.

I guess better to do this now then to be married with children and be doing all this traveling.

Of course I need to have a girlfriend first.
