Attention work


hmmm what am i doing right now, acutally ripping some more cd's from my boss's house. I ripping:
Radiohead - Amnesiac
The Smashing Pumpkins - Adore
The Smashing Pumpkins - Mellon Collie...
Regurgitator - ...Art

Hopefully i might be able to get some more of him tomorrow and rip them. Michael (my boss) has the damn most original cd collection i have ever seen. They are all nicely alphabetically sorted and he has abot 5 x 50cd racks with them all on there. His taste of music is basically whats on Triple J all the time, so he got quite a lot of mainstream alt.rock stuff which is sweet. Have to say he's a pretty nice guy, lets me go around there whilst he's at work and rip cds and use his net. Cant complain about that. :) If u re-tag lots of albums that means rename all alot of your albums to a specific format i recommend two programs. One is
cdtag its good and really easy to use. And the other is called Mp3releaser, this program is alot harder to use but i believe is better. Its whats used in the mp3 'scene' but a bit hard to follow. If u want to try it out (both programs free) and cant figure out shit in it then just post a comment or send an email to me. Oh and i must say Mp3releaser was the original program and Cd-tag is a cheap replica....so morgoth
says in his program eheh.

Edit* Well check that out, morgothtools.com not work anymore, the program has finished. Well that sux, if u do kind of want the program i do have a copy of it no installer just a dir i can prob send to u. Best try cd-tag i guess :
11.15pmJust watched Lateline on ABC after watching rove. Had this really good interview with an english journalist/writer who is experienced in terriost (or bad) behaviour. He had interview the big man - bin ladem, personally a few times and had some really practical and interesting views on the current situation in Iraq. I really gotta look more about him up....on the
abc lateline website. Also there was an interesting short story on the current draught crisis in africa, i think the country was malua. Just shows how fucked the situation is over there and how we basically do nothing. Im guessing everyone gets that feeling that they would like to make that 'difference' in the world and shit. But we just never seem to do, we always have some idea or suggestion and feel we can make a difference, but then we just become unmotivated and lazy, and go back to watching sports tonight. Be good if one day i didnt do that. It feels like we cant do anything....but we can....i guess thats just a really nice excuse for all of us. We can donate to charity? hmmmm dont even know if that goes to the right people, usually goes to the people's wages who walk around trying to sign u up. I dont know that worlds pretty fucked up and we just seem to get so involved in our own shit. Distracted maybe even, its just fucked. Hmmm i guess ill go and play my video-games and get over the feeling that i can do something.......sux. Hmmm maybe ill do something one day or tomorrow.....i think we all can if we wanted too. What a shit position, you want to do something....and u can...but u dont. Instead we would rather be farkn oblivious and naive to the shit going on in the world, so we can enjoy our packaged tomatoes. The world is fuckn unfair and all we do to it is make it worse, undoubtedly....I dont think i know anyone who has made it better, not in the big picture. I guess we should focus on the little picture then huh......the little things make the big thing better. Like putting our rubbish in the bin, or not chucking away that cigarette butt on the ground but in the bin, or using public transport. I guess it does make some sort of difference, but nothing much. I guess we can say we are doing something that way instead of feeling guilty for it. Cause we wouldnt want to feel guilty for something like that eh. The means to justify the end. Im not trying to preach here, just basically saying stuff that i even do to ignore the big picture, what i do to say to myself i am doing something. We are but we arent. We could do so much more and i guess by these little things it just helps us live everyday and believe we do something good. But we dont.
To my own personal situations now.....today i felt pretty good about the entire relationship stuff. Did my normal day to day stuff, but had a nice fruit smoothie from gloria jeans with Mark. Mark probaly my only mate over here, like proper mate. Kind of guy who if was in sydney will definately be friends with him and do shit. Though thats not saying i dont like/get on with anyone here, i get on with heaps of people and like them too, just mark has similar likes/hobbies as me i guess. normal day hay...rymes [insert pathetic laugh].
Tomorrow is going to be interesting at work, not working though. Matt the assistant manager i think going to get fired of stock take issues and shit. The "Loss proventition" people for woolies going to the store...aka Internal Affairs...shake in fear i guess or something. Hope he not get fired he's a good boss......good boss for me though..maybe not for the store. Either way i plan to do something tomomorrow. Oh yeah clean the kitchen do some sport maybe post this on the net and then have a shower, cause im quite stinky today, well my nether regions are from playing bball. haha could of made a balls joke there but i didnt.....geez wheres my humour gone these days!
anyways im off to bed, maybe play a game 11.26pm right now. should get up early and enjoy it though, meant to be like pretty sunny and warm which is sweet. ill let u know hows things going again soon - enjoy reading the blog, dont kid urself. nnight. /out
