People, People and People again

I'm still working on this philosophy so excpect more on this soon

My Studying Paid Off!

All my studying paid off alot sooner than I expected, I found money in my poetry book ;)
When I told mom she remebered that she might have left some good money in some silly place that she forgot about, she went and looked for it and she found about fifth her paycheck lying around in some cabin in the kitchen...
Ofcourse I demanded a percentage ofo of that money because I the reason she remebered it anyway. I got it, I wish all my study would pay off the same speed!

World Cup!?

World Cup, what is it really about? is it about soccer? nahh I don't think so, we've got great soccer matches all the time and they don't get tenth of the attention World Cup gets.
World Cup is all about the festivities, about the crazy fans, hooligans if you like things a bit extreme, the matches themselves are of minor importance the fun is all before and after the game, it's in cheering and shouting for your favourite team till you feel that your throat's bleeding, have of the crowd never even go the watch the game but celebrate with others and prove their allegiance and support to their favourite teams, and most of the time they don't know shit about soccer...

After Brazil's match with Japan, Brazil's fans, me included, crowded up and blocked one of the major streets in the city, Sweida, with a bus and went on shouting and cheering even folk dancing on top of the bus and in the middle of the street, climbed on street lights to hang Brazil Flags, there even was a car parade that kept coming and goig along the street, the cops were helples and all they could do is wait for the whole thing to end by itself.

33000 visitors


This screen shot is taken from a university website, the translation from arabic is:
yesterday's visitors: almost 33000
total number of visits till this moment: 1388
I don't think these guys ever passed their math exams....

Taken from "Bakkouz"

The following is a post from Bakkouz, great blog by the way...
 

Windows XP is a strange strange piece of software:

Case No.1 The Politicaly Biased Notepad:

- Launch Notepad and type “Bush hid the facts” without the quotes.

- Save the file anywhere and by any name and close notepad.

- open the file… what do you see? :|

Case No.2 The Impossbile folders:

Try this, try to create a new folder and name it (or raname an existing folder) to “con” without the quotes obviously, and press Enter, if you succeed, let me know ;) this also works for “com1” / “lpt1” / “lpt2“.

Case No.3 The undeletable Folder:

And here’s another one, Go to the c:\program files folder and find a folder call Xerox, trust me, its there, now try to delete it, also if you succeed, let me know :P

Now, there is a logical explanation to Cases 2 and 3 and i know what they are, i’m not telling you though, Google them if you wish ;) however i have no explanation for Case No.1, That is just freaky :)

makes you think huh!!

Hotmail Spam

Recently I've been getting alot of mails on hotmail that says basically the same thing:
This is a message from MSN, forward it at least to18 people or your hotmail account will be closed, when you do this your msn icon will turn blue!! for more information check msn.com
In other versions the letter says that hotmail is going to be a paid service unless you forward this message to I don't know how many contacts and they contain a link to a BBC.com article that supports their claim. I checked that link and the article is dates back to about 6 or 7 years ago (i.e. too freakin' old to be true, Duh!!) this aniquated article is just used to make this spam more convincing. And everybody so damn stupid to keep falling for the same old trick over and over again!!

You should know it's fake for the following reasons:
1. Real messages from msn staff has the butterfly logo on the letter symbol in you inbox.
2. When msn wants you to validate your account i'm sure that they'll be able to think of a way better than to forward a message to a stupid number of contacts.
3. Nothing is on msn.com supports this in any way, but everybody's too lazy to check, they just forward first ask questions later.
4. "Your msn logo will turn blue" how stupid is this??

And the worst part is that people keep sending this like the folks at hotmail got nothing to do but to keep asking you to keep on spamming under the threat of losing your account!! How people keep buying this I have no idea; think people, think!!!

P.S: just after I first posted this I went to check my hotmail inbox, I found the same message again, wait a minute that's not all the sender had a yahoo address!!! WTF? how stupid can people get? AAARRRRRRRRGH!

Password Hacked

While I was going throgh some files on my pc I was surprised to find a MSN Messenger chat history folder in my documents that goes to my baby sister; "something's rotten in the state of Denmark"  I said to myself, she has access to my account somehow maybe she hacked my password through that silly hint I had...

Anyway I was thinking wether to snoop in on some of her chats or not. I believe in people's privacy but didn't she invade my privacy when she entered my account? So after much thought I decided to do it having in mind my two sisters' record of using the internet; giving your home phone number to a total stranger that you met in a chat room, stupid!! so I found she's chatting to older guys, much older guys, she's 14 and they're over 20 to say the least, but what I found was innocent so I just changed my password and made the hint say: "Never think of stealing my password again"

After I put more thought into the whole thing I changed back the password to what it was and decided to keep watch a couple of more weeks, if things remain normal then i'll change my password and just tell her that it's not cool if she ever tried to steal my password again, never to mention finding the chat history; but if I found that somethings were wrong I'll think what to do then.

I'm feeling guilty hacking her privacy but you can't be too careful these days, not on the internet anyway.

I had a Dream

You'd think the way things work is: Nightmares make you wake up depressed and feeling bad for the rest of the day, and the good dreams are supposed to make you feel good. well, not with me they don't; Just today I had my best dream ever and it made me wish that I never woke up, I mean now I'm all bummed out and feeling down. Infact, I'm so angry that I could punch through a wall...(metaphorically speaking).
The thing I really don't understand is that this dream wasn't really what I'd call a best-case-scenario, not even close...

Language Test: Good

I just had my second exam today and all I got to say is that it was better than that notorious Criticism exam, I can't say it's as good as I want it to be but who am I to complain...

Axiom of Choice

The Axiom of Choice is a mathematical theory that sums up to this: there is no way of knowing what a person is going to choose out of a number of equal choices...
But what if you don't have a choice, or you don't have a clue what your choices are, or the best choice you have sucks? what is it called then?
I call it Life.
