All we are saying. Is give peace a chance.

I have not been blogging for a while, since nothing really happened. This weekend a lot of things happened so I am going to try and sum them up:

- Friday. It was a good day. Some dumb slut tried to get my attention and i ignored her. Later that evening i almost cut off my thumb.
- Saturday. Was planning on cleaning the appartment, but the thumb hurt too much to do anything, so i just watched some movies (Gran Tarino -- watch it, it's good).
- Sunday. Thumb still in a bad shape, but there was a John Lennon exhibition that me and Mau went to. It was cool. Crazy pictures that you were not allowed to photograph (i took about 5 pictures anywho, rules are meant to be broken right John?). And after that we went to the bed-in suite from John and Yoko (1400 euros per night). Me and Mau stole the soap from the bathroom. It was a good day.

Sunday, Bloody Sunday.

I just got off the phone with Dickie. He was crying because Ilja has got a new boyfriend in Sydney. I did a quick (and badly done) five minute photoshop to ease the pain:














- Brother where art thou?

And here is another creation of mine:















- The infamous dog-cat. It can chase itself for hours.


The weather is nice, so I think I am going out for a run.

Are You a True Believer in Insanity?

Warning!

This entry will contain shocking and mind blowing events. If you have a weak stomach, stop reading -- NOW. I am very serious and am not fooling around. Stop reading or you might end up completely insane like me when you have finished reading the text below.

......

......

......

Still reading, eh? Ok, suit yourself, don't say I did not warn you.

This entry will be about America's most famous clown: 'Ronald McDonald'. Most people know Ronald as a friendly clown, trying his best to put a lot of excessive fat on children all over the world with his delicious cheese-burgers.

We, Krameros (peace be with him), from the masteringinsanity-blog have seen the darker side of Ronald the Clown though and captured it on film. The McDonald's organization tried to silence us by offering a substantial bribe, but to truly master insanity you must overcome personal benefit and share your knowledge with the rest of the world. So without further delay, here are the pictures that you were NOT supposed to see:


-Ronald McDonald -- The Wife Beater. Direct quote from Ronald: 'If the bitch don't wanna cook cheese-burgers, I'ma slap her silly Dog'.

Although that might look bad, we never anticipated to see Ronald McDonald in a public place, getting a blowjob and just sitting there smiling. It was a good thing our camera-team was there to capture it on film, otherwise we would not have believed it ourselves:













-Ronald McDonald -- Blowjob for a cheese-burger discount-day.

Why did I write and share this amazing piece of text with you? Well, it was because I was inspired by the best song ever written. It is the answer to getting RickRolled online, so feel free to get McRolled (put the volume very loud and put the video on repeat for the best insanity effect (insanity levels reached in the past will not guarantee insanity levels for the future). From the album: Clown for a Lifetime, Burger for a Day:

Streaming Internet Television

A promise is a promise unless the promise was made while being drunk. Nevertheless, I will post a short instruction below on how to watch streaming megavideo videos in high DVD (or actually divx) quality.

First of all, we will need a website that can provide us with the crappy megavideo links. A good website for this is:

http://www.greatstufftv.com/

The supernovatube links you see on that website buffer extremely fast by the way, but the quality is not that good for the flash content (check them out though if you don't care about picture quality). Supernovatube (SNT) also offers divx streaming links (only viewable when using Firefox) but the loading speed for me (with a 10Mbit line) is very poor (they host the divx content on another server).

So to get back to converting the crappy megavideo links to actual high quality fast streaming videos. We now have the crappy megavideo link, so copy the complete Megavideo URL (if the video is not pointing directly to http://www.megavideo.com/whatever, click inside the window where the video is playing and another window will popup with a direct link to the actual megavideo URL).

Now follow the simple instructions below:

1. Convert Your Megavideo Link To MegaUpload - Using http://songvn.com/media/convert_megavideo.php

A small sidenote here; You might get an annoying popup which does not allow you to enter the link. When the page loads, just quickly click somewhere on the screen where you can enter the link and the popup will not show (might be annoying at first, but you will get the hang of this after trying it a couple of times). Alternatively you can use FireFox's pop-up blocker, but you can sort how that exactly works out by yourself.

2. Copy the megaupload link and paste it into the address bar for Internet Explorer / Firefox.
3. Type in the code to get to the actual download link. Wait 45 seconds until the download is available and right-click on the download link and select: Copy Shortcut.
4. Close Tabs (when using FireFox)
5- Goto the New DivX Code Generator: http://labs.divx.com/WebPlayerCodeGenerator
6- Paste the MegaUpload Link
7- Click 'PREVIEW'
8- Watch Full Film

Once the video is fully buffered / loaded, you can save the video by going into your temporary file folder and copy the .avi into a permanent folder.

That's it. Easy as pie. Enjoy your new addiction:


- Enjoy your new addiction!

PS. I will post some more websites the next time where you can find many more alternatives links.

Late Shift? Fraggle-Rock.

Blogging. It makes sense when you have got something to say. While writing this I realize that the smarter readers amongst you (and let's face it, whoever read this does not fall under that category) will think: 'Are you not contradiction yourself now?'. And the answer to that thought is: 'Yes, I am. But mastering insanity needs an insight into many different levels of thought, which you will never comprehend to begin with'.

And this bring me to Twitter. While blogging at least makes you think about what you are writing, twittering is just based on an idiot sending an SMS text via his/her mobile which is then dumped on an internet blog. Here is an example of a twitter blogs for people that have never heard of it:

Is it me or is it freezing today?
from web
Catching up on Admin after a busy few weeks.
from web
Back in Cork after a long 2 days in Dublin.
from web
oh well :- (
from m.slandr.net
3 - 3 HT, an unlikely prediction.
from m.slandr.net

And all the blogs are the same as the example above. The word 'sad' comes close to describing what twitter is, but it does not fully cover the load I am afraid.

The person who thought of twitter is a genius though (and must be working for a telephone company -- if he is not, then he is not a genius but just missed out on his once in a lifetime opportunity to become a millionaire). Telephone companies have been making shitloads of money on SMS messages. From Wikipedia:

Commercially SMS is a massive industry in 2006 worth over 81 billion dollars globally.
[23] SMS has an average global price of 0.11 USD and maintains a near 90% profit margin.

This person must have thought something along the following lines:

- What service costs nothing to provide, but will still allow me to make huge profits on? (Answer: SMS).
- Which people would use the service mentioned above? (Answer: idiots a.k.a. 97% of the world population).
- How can I make sure that this sounds like something new and exciting? (Answer: Post the stupid SMS-messages on the internet).

So there you go, twitter in a nutshell. Twitter your money away like the fool that you are. Twitter is the ultimate example of the growing stupidity of people and it makes me shiver to think what the new next low will be in humanity.


- Hey - I twitter and I just set my own head on fire! from web

So. Good to have that off my chest. Now it's time for an update of what's going on here in Amsterdam.

Dr.Kaboom (Paul D. for friends, I'll explain the concept later) started his new job as a janitor at the Hoge School van Amsterdam (HVA). He has a 25 year old receptionist who installed two printers for him, which gave him plenty of time to check out her cleavage. Not a lot of people know this, but I have received some inside information from a man with a cough, wearing a yellow raincoat and learned that the Three Degrees actually based their song 'Dirty Old Man' on Paul. Funny sidenote here is that Paul now has a boss that actually works instead of sitting on his ass doing nothing the whole day and he expects that Paul, crazy as it may sound, does some actual work himself. On Tuesday he had to work until 19:00 and I reckon it won't be the last time. But again, win-win for Paul (or little professor as he likes to be called as well) as it means spending less time with the family.

Over to Mau. Mau is singlehandedly trying to fix the economic crisis by bying all kinds of hardware he does not need in order to stimulate the market. He already bought two notebooks (one Mac and one PC) because it was a good deal. Although he does not actually use them, he is trying to save us all from going into poverty, so a big OOOOSSSSssss from me to Mau for that. His latest gadget is an i-Phone. The best feature of the phone must be the one that actually tells you where you are. So, if you are somewhere, the phone actually verifies that you are there. This new techmology truly is amazing!


- I am here now? No shit, Sherlock!

Knowing Mau he is going to lose this phone (worth ~€1300) within 3 weeks. Place your bets now readers if you feel lucky tonight! Mau is also watching and re-watching one of the best movies ever made: 'The Fountain'. If you have not seen this movie yet, you should really go watch it, as it is a movie that is almost close to perfection.

I have a lot of other things on my mind (Danselique update / how to watch movies streaming / fitness for beginners / getting a parking license without owning a car), but it's getting late and I know that most readers have the attention span of a goldfish, so I will call it a night. Tomorrow I will try to at least cover the 'how to watch any movie streaming in high QL' so Dr. Kaboom can watch some streaming dvd porn at his new workplace.

Just to round things up. Working late shifts is not a lot of fun. Listening to the fraggle theme wakes me up though, so here it is for all people that feel tired / depressed or that are on the road to awe:

Krameros (peace be with him) is spamless.

No calls from the call-center today. I can't begin to describe how disappointed I am. It is like imaging having kinky sex with that hot girl that you regularly see at work, but are afraid to talk to. And when you finally have the courage to ask if she likes giving head, you find out that she has left the company...

All in all it was a good day today at work. Time flew by and it is almost weekend, so happy times are almost there. Paul, erm no, I mean Dr. Kaboom (as he likes to be called), is finishing an essay for his son tonight. The topic was 'Write about Yourself' and Paul is either going to be father of the year once he is done with it, or his kids will be taken away by child-support. So for Paul, it is a win-win situation.

I wish I had more inspiration today, but I am really depressed about my call-center spammers not calling me anymore. Even spammers that I never met don't want to talk to me anymore. I think I have reached a new low in my life.

On top of it all, I was trying to fill in a Sudoku-puzzle and got stuck, so I drew military stuff attacking the Sudoku-puzzle. I took a picture with my phone as it was quite artistic, but I am not able to show it now because the upload from my phone to the computer does not work. A sad day for you all as I know a lot of people would actually like to see my drawing skills.

Writing all of this has made me very depressed actually. I am going to bed. Krameros (peace be with him) -- Out.

Mastering Insanity - Going Down

"Good Afshenoon! Disz isch your casp-tain schpeekiiing!!! We are goooing dooooown...!!!"


- Tesekkurler

Another normal day at the office at Schiphol-Rijk when a Turkish airliner crashed (almost) right outside our building. It crashed near the Polderbaan so unfortunately I couldn't see anything from our building (and in all honesty, nine dead is not a real plane-crash anyways). The 'meiden van Halal' were apparantly on board and survived so I guess that Allah has failed to kill them and has to try it again.

All the managers from Unisys were watching television to see what was going on and since they are 'cutting costs' in Holland, it would seem sensible to me to fire the lot of them as they clearly don't have anything better to do. I wish I had a camera to take some pictures of them standing around doing nothing, but alas...

So, back to mastering insanity. Today was a busy day at work. I am actually starting to enjoy people management, it is a strange and crazy world. And speaking of crazy, this is a badly designed clothes hanger picture for the people that don't have me added on facebook and have never seen this picture:



- Yes, just hang your coat on the bear's hard-on.

It was an enjoyable evening at Herpes. Had a good conversation with Dick and we are going to train together in March. No expections. No excuses. No mercy. Or to speak with Paul: "No pain, no pain".

Only received five calls from the call-center today instead of the usual six. A colleague of mine gave me an excellent idea on how to answer the phone after two weeks from now. I am still writing the script but it will be something like this (if you don't understand the text below, I suggest that you should stop reading this blog):

'Brigadier de Boer. Goedendag. Mag ik uw naam en telefoonnummer noteren? Dank u. Wij hebben Krameros (peace be with him) zijn lichaam gevonden en hij is ongeveer vier weken dood. De buren hebben geklaagd over stankoverlast en wij hebben vastgesteld dat hij een onnatuurlijke dood is gestorven. Het lijkt op een afrekening in het criminele circuit. Ook hebben wij vernomen dat u hem veertig keer heeft geprobeerd te bellen, dus kunt u uitleggen hoe u hem kent en waarom u hem zo vaak heeft proberen te bereiken?'.

I am still working on the details, but it will be something along those lines. I will try and record the call as I am hoping that the person on the other end of the line will freak out completely.

Krameros (peace be with him) is going to watch the new Heroes episode now. Stay tuned for more nonsense kids -- and don't forget: "You are only as young, as the women you feel".
