So how do you win these things?  Each blogger will do a post on their site, with clues as to where they’ve hidden The Nerdies Idol inside their blog.  9 of these blogs will have fail Idols.  If you come across a fail idol, skip to the next blog until you find the winning idol.
The bloggers are as follows:
Once you’ve been to all the blogs and found the winning idol, there will be a unique code on that page.  The first four treasure hunters to either email sheenagates@gmail.com the code, or DM it to @SheBeeGee if you’re a follower, will win.
Simple huh?  Happy hunting!

.. and think of those that you love.

Hold them close in your heart and when you get a moment today.. give them a call and tell them how much they mean to you. Drop by for coffee and reconnect with family and friends.

Life is short and often we lose sight of this. Embrace those around you… You never know what life plans to throw at us next.

PaperClip thrombosis..
February 4th, 2010

I have no idea what that is (sounds serious) but that’s not what I am talking about today..

Dentist aka Evil Comedian

Today I want to talk about the fact that my dentist tried to kill me…A simple toothache (ignored for a month) was what I walked in with. What I walked out with was a head shattered in abuse and a promise of more to come in 6 days.

After several XRays poking and prodding he eventually found the culprit of my *occasional* toothache. It was a little crack at the base of my tooth that had exposed a nerve? He looks at me in an accusatory fashion and shakes his head mumbling something about grinding my teeth and not listening.  So I gasp in a mock horror and ignore hm.

So what if I grind my teeth, I am not the first person to do this and most definitely wont be last… besides, without me and others like me breaking our teeth, he would probably have had to go into some other profession like pimping so I actually saved him from ho’s :-D

Anyhoo, there I am mouth open enduring the needle and the drilling and thinking happy bunny thoughts and other such arb crap when he finally announces that I should close my mouth and bite…

“aarg .. caa… oeoo… aaai… ouuoo…”

I sit there and blink at him..drool running down my cheek wondering where the frikken suction thingy is.. and after a few awkward seconds of this he realises that my jaw is locked open again. Thanks asshole, what was your first clue?

(Fast forward through the agony of snapping my jaw closed) He gets me to grind on a blue piece of paper, opens my mouth to investigate further, and then says “Ok, bite down aga…er, uhm.. here let me help you”<–WTF?!

I went home in pain, pure agony.. Headache from hell bottled with a bruised face from the torture and the knowledge that I will need to return on Tuesday for a followup…

P.S. I am feeling totally wrecked today.. Can’t seem to shake the headache and don’t think I can take any more painkillers and still maintain normal body control. :-(

So the Auction has begun!!
January 29th, 2010

#thenerdies10 is in full swing and I have received a few bids on my *z* key so far.. I am so flattered I have thrown in the CRTL + V Keys to the winning bid !!

AUCTION IS HERE

Now remember the auction is for a good cause as all proceeds will go to The Wet Nose Foundation.  Saving the furries!

I hereby also submit  for auction:

The pink flower from my Car Aerial (with aerial attached as it snapped off last week)

So what would else you like to see me putting up for auction?

January 29th, 2010

I normally give everyone a funny friday and then get set out to finish off the weeks work and get ready to chillax as I normally do Friday evenings. I love doing nothing on Friday evenings.. I hate making plans for this one night normally because I am just wanting some alone time with my favourite guys…

But today is different, today I will not only give you a Funny for Friday —>

frikkenliar

But I will also include some interesting and possibly helpful information aswell!

As many of you may or may not know I used to be exclusively in the PC Repair/Networking and Sales Industry up until 3 or 4 years ago and owned a little shop which also housed a little internet cafe in it here in Durban. And being in that industry you learn a few things, techniques that make the job easier, which on its own are simple yet effective tool of the trade so to speak.

Anyway, I remember one particular trick I learnt in the early years of troubleshooting when I was working from a garage with the GreekBoy and we were tinkering with the idea of doing PC repairs for money instead of mahala together (aka back in the day).There it was, on the bench – It was an old P2 that just wouldn’t start up. Everything was tested -  the power supply, the ram, CPU, drives, IDE cables and it still wouldn’t power up. So all that was left was the board.. and back then a board was expensive but yet still repairable so we took the board off.. checked the tracks for any obvious damage.. eyeballed the capacitors to see if any had popped and reseated any chips that we felt were  maybe a little wobbly ;-) Finally reconnected everything and still. NADA.

We were about to say our final words and call the guy and give him the bad news when I suggested we try one more thing. I promptly leant over, and told Greekboy to discharge the board again but this time to remove the CMOS battery when doing so.

After a few minutes, we crossed our fingers and pushed the power on and were rewarded with the sweet sound of the PSU fan and the POST bleep! IT worked! We were champions! We were going to take over the world.. One CMOS battery at a frikken time!

It was a random day in April.. and from that day onwards, it was fondly referred to as the “April Special”.

So when in doubt – pull the battery out ;-)

Have a Fantastic weekend everyone! See you on the other side…

begging for a beating..
January 27th, 2010

I had no idea how often I use the letter *z*. Until now..

piece of shit1

My keyboard is messing with its longevity and wants me to organise a keybeating spree with the rest of the qwerty.

So how do I type with no *z*?!?!?!?!

I have it in my clipboard and CRTL+V when I need it. Until I replace the *z*  in the clipboard with something else (like a 5 page document outlining our terms and conditions that I am working on) and then I scream as instead of a *z* appearing the 5pg  doc appears.. frukkit!

And its not always like this.. No, only when I least expect it. Let me lose my rag and go about ordering a new one to replace it and then it will start working again like nothing is wrong.

Why must the *z* taunt me so??

briget

They will look for negativity in EVERYTHING. They will blame everyone and everything on someone/something else.

miserable people

“Nothing is their fault and life is unfair.”

They will tell everyone who is willing to listen about how others have influenced their downfall in life instead of assessing a situation and working towards a positive solution. They will expect others to do most things for them as they are incapable /unwilling to do anything for themselves. But will then turn around complaining about how they HAVE to do everything and if they don’t do anything NOTHING gets done.

Responsibility lies with everyone else. They will never accept responsibility for themselves or their situation.

And I have no time for this self pitying bullshit. Grow the fuck up man! You are not a child, stop behaving like one.

I am not the reason you are miserable, you are. And you know what…if you continue to attack me for no reason at all and persist on blaming me for your situation I may just lose my temper with you completely and vote you off this island.

I know you are probably reading this and this time you will be correct in your accusation… this time it is about you. So print it out, read it a few more times(please). Fully swallow the extent of your miserable behaviour and know that if you continue your self pitying bullshit, you will continue to be alone and unhappy.

“Your loneliness is your own fault. Your problems are of your making and You are not a nice person…”

Honestly, I don’t know if you have the ability to change – but if you do, I suggest you try really fucken hard. For your sake more than for anything else…
