Like a complete unknown…

Once upon a time you dressed so fine
Threw the bums a dime in your prime, didn’t you
Peopled called you, said “beware the doll, you’re bound to fall”,
You thought they were all kidding you
You used to laugh about
Everybody else that was hanging out
Now you don’t talk so loud
Now you don’t seem so proud
About having to be scrounging around for your next meal

Nah! This time ’tis not Bob, but that Jimi person. And lemme break the news to y’all: HE WAS A FECKIN’ GOD!!! Woops, now the atheists are gonna disown me. This fucking sucks!

How does it feel
How does it feel
To be on your own
In no direction home
Like a complete unknown
Like a rolling stone

And and now he plays Little Wing live and I need to fucking smoke. See this post served two objectives. I was also able to demonstrate how fuckin’ is such a fuckin’ cool adjective that comes in handy when u have a sucky vocab and u wanna talk intelligent shit about great people, like Jimi in this case. Fuck yeah! Woops! Adios!!

Price You Gotta Pay

Holly shit! Seems like that Billy Gates person’s Macrosoft is pretty good in wagging it’s tail to whatever the Jobs guy says or does. Latest in the sea of breath-taking announcements that follows Apple’s league is how Macrosoft is gonna offer DRM-free music from it’s Zune music stores (or whatever the hell it’s called). Can’t they just make up their minds for this once?? Just until last month they were all oh-so gaga over DRM, and now they claim they have been talking to the “record labels ‘for some time now’ about offering unprotected music on its Zune players in an effort to meet the needs of its customers”?

I mean whatever those hippies at DefectiveByDesign have been claiming bout the perils of DRMed content, I never bought any of that nonsense. In fact, last week the blokes over there got so excited after the Apple/EMI announcement that they emailed me to lemme know how they’ll send a DefectiveByDesign T-shirt to that Jobs person as a token of appreciation for his support. Of course I always have better things to do in life like read the breaking stories at Onion. I mean who knew that the “Area Man Just Wants to Throw One Good Punch in His Life,” finally. Now thats what I call news with some global relevance. Adios!!

Signify

Been a long time since I blogged on serious stuff over here. So tonight I’ll give you an introduction on how to write good config files. Following is a valid sample from my production openSUSE 10.2 system:

## /etc/bash.bashrc.local
##
## System-wide aliases & env stuff that
## I've gotten used to while using Mdv...
##
## Ya better ask me whether I'm sure or not
## before ya delete, move or overwrite stuff
alias rm='rm -i'
alias cp='cp -i'
alias mv='mv -i'
##
## Haha, there are colors everywhere...
alias grep='grep --color'
##
## Root's ls is freaking moronish cuz it displays
## hidden files by default, so I'm killing that
## by first unaliasing and then putting a
## replacement highly super-geeky alias.
unalias ls
alias ls='ls -F --show-control-chars --color=auto'
##
## Hiya, this is what a prompt should look like!!
PS1='[\u@\h \W]\$ '
##
## I'm really smart you see. Yay!!

Notice how everything out there is sufficiently commented. Commenting stuff in these nifty config files is for helping yourself realize (in some future time) how smart you always have been when it came to writing good config files. Of course, the last comment on your smartness is real important too. Adios!!

P.S. –> The dashes (–) are supposed to be two hyphens (- -, w/o the space in between). WordPress thinks it’s too smart and interprets it as dashes. Some fecking SMARTASS it sure is…




YouWhoo?

"I've been mad for fucking years,
absolutely years,
been over the edge for yonks,
been working me buns off for bands...

I've always been mad,
I know I've been mad,
like the most of us...
very hard to explain why you're mad,
even if you're not mad."
