One sweet girl


I never forget her smile, her smell and her eyes.
got enough of living a life of lies.
I don't feel weak when she's away from me,
but much stronger when she's besides me.

Life goes on


I was almost going to remove this blog till a couple of months ago as I had lost the me in myself to stop and think and write. Life was going too fast under my eyes and sometimes I couldn't really give a damn of what happened around me. I had lost not only the muse to write, but also motivation to experience certain things.

If you had to ask me why this has happened, I would have just stared in oblivious and look for the real answer. Now this conquest to understand the why is not important, and here I am again, sharing a bit of my experiences to my virtual friends.

Life goes on.

Google Maltese site prank


Like the incident which happened nearly four years ago, Google Malta fall victim of another prank, probably devised on April's Fool.








The prank is very simple - since Google Language Translation web services rely solely on volunteers, which can be you and me, and not on trusted translators, people can give their own translation. This leads to vandalism - much to what happens on a regular basis on Wikipedia.







As an ethical * heq him * individual, I decided to revert the translation to its original form and explaining the reason of the change, thus removing the 'cool factor' which the prankster thought to have achieved.







The changes will probably take a couple of days to come into effect..

Pea - RHCP (Vocal + Bass Cover)


I am singing and playing this fantastic cover which was made by Flea of the RHCP (find original video here - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2JGF2UfBJUw ). Please forgive my voice as I am just recovering from a throat infection, however I tried to imitate also the voice of Flea here. Unfortunately the audio is not in sync with the video :/



I dedicate this song to all the 'little' PEAple i know ;) If you know any friends of mine which should be tagged here, please tag them ;) Power to the PEAple!

Here are the lyrics:

Im a little pea
I love the sky the trees
Im a teeny tiny little ant
Checking out this and that
I am nothing
So you have nothing to hide
And Im a pacifist
So I can fuck your shit up
Oh yeah Im small

Fuck you asshole
You homophobic redneck dick
Youre big and tough and macho
You can kick my ass
So fucking what

Happy bday Linux


Today is the 17th birthday of Linux...

On the 25th August 1991 the following message appeared on the newsgroup comp.os.minix:

Hello everybody out there using minix-

I'm doing a (free) operating system (just a hobby, won't be big
and professional like gnu) for 386(486) AT clones. This has
been brewing since april, and is starting to get ready. I'd like
any feedback on things people like/dislike in minix; as my OS
resembles it somewhat (same physical layout of the file-sytem
due to practical reasons)among other things.

I've currently ported bash (1.08) an gcc (1.40), and things seem to work.
This implies that i'll get something practical within a few months, and I'd
like to know what features most people want. Any suggestions are welcome,
but I won't promise I'll implement them :-)

Happy Birthday Linux!!!
