more or less...

Anyway, thing is that I have some issues in my RL, that needs to be sorted out, and since this is a private matter I will not be telling more about it... sorry.

Furthermore, I will be leaving my job on Thule "For Good" in six weeks and I need to find a new job where I can expand upon my recent assosiates degree in System Adminstration. If anyone knows where I can get a job as a junior memebr please let me know by PM.

Lastly, I have been developing all three of my sci-fi stories and I feel that atleast two of them has matured enough to actually be written... one which is a child-oriented feel-good sci-fi in a dystopian world and the other is a youth-oriented sci-fi in space with a shonen-inspired storyline of friendship, family, oppression and ultimate sacrifice.

I will jump in again from time to time, but it will be less and less frequent over the next 3 to 6 months.

Have a good one.

Azz De'Nolo

Hey, congrats on the degree!

Good luck on the job hunt. Where are you looking? Just around home, or are you considering a work visa?

As long as I can communicate with others in English while working/learning I have no qualms...

Though it is preferred that I can work in a industrialised country.
If I have to go to the development countries I would prefer to be at a military base... like a navy base in the desert or a army base on an oil rig, marines on a mountain top or an air force base with a harbour...

Anyway... so far:
Where I can communicate in english or danish.
Is in a developed / semi-developed (some parts of asia that is) country.
Can accept a pretty green sysadmin.

I'm back baby! (Bending Unit-22: Bender Bending Rodríguez - Futurama)

Got meself a job. Not quite small as I am the more or less the sole it-supporter and systemadministrator for the time being.

Fourtunatly I am working among the geeks of Greenland. The homepage is: http://www.natur.gl/index.php?id=1&L=3 Not the only one crazy around here, though unless there is a Japaneese guest scientist, I am the only one here listening to Japaneese pop and pop-rock (Fire Bomber anyone?)

My random rambling wil increase in time again...

Thx for the warm welcome...

Been working a bit more on my sci-fi, and the second one I mentioned at the first post has mature alot.

Have already made scetches for the first instance in the first chapter (I usually make backgrounds and such in 3-D) and I already know the looks, personality, backstory for my main characters. I already got some of the supporting charactors aswell for the good guys. The antagonist has yet to be fully developed. While it is related to the protagonist, I have yet to detail out a backstory, looks and personality. Even less are the supporting chacters for the evil side.
Execpt one though. A re-curring competent, yet unlucky captain of a frigate who is on C.A.P. for pirate activities. His encounters with our heroes will be both exciting, humorous and terrifying...

The universe of the story is the milkyway, year 3000+ (been considering year 3148 or 3115 due to 2010 + 1138 or 1977 + 1138 respectively and it is far out enough, giving me allowance to the near-outrageous technology).

Humans developed scientifically enough to begin colonising planets, first locally in the solar system, then to the nearest stars, then later around the local clusters of stars. Though this colonisation was run by very capitalistic forces... While not a bad thing paranoia began to creep into people and more often than not a politician is elected with the ambition of making the Terran Confederation more safe for it's people...

Other advances in science has made it possible for genetist to mix the human genome with genomes of other creatures, canine and feline being preferred (monkey being incredible hard to control due to their already high intelligence and closeness to human, making them on par or even superior to human in many aspects). This made bipedal cat's and dog with many human aspect, but with either resistance to certain toxins (contra sensitivety to other toxins and deseases common in the respective creature-host) or higher agility or physical strength.

These creature of genetic science were often mistanken by non-terrans for being an enslaved alien species or a very different sub-species of the human genome (where they in a sense were corrrect in the latter)

Dog-human and cat-human mix were created in order to cover a distinct lack of both mentally qualified and physically qualified man-power i.e. a human could do the nessesary work but was physically incapeable to do so, were as a feline could easyly access said area, but lacked the nessesary intelligence.
Odd-genetic result were a mix of squirrels and human, while not physically, but mentally. giving them a squirrelse size, agility, speed combined with human intelligence. (think a mini mechanic with high-coffeine levels)

That is part of the universe I have created. Next week we go in the political situation.

Working on a homepage for my dad...

and then last night I was fixing his computer and found an odd file.
I spent a minute looking at my own code by accident. I was thinking "What the hell is this guy doing?"

Perhaps we should have a "President and Dictator for Life." We'd need to recruit a "First Tiger" also.

I could be wrong, but I think it was frustration at the lack of interest in his writing projects. Azz was always kinda sensitive like that.

Nope... Just tired about the population of avian...
Not all you of course, but for a former SW guild this seems like a club of bashers for GL...
I cannot support, nor be part of that.

I have asked obo to delete my account...
This PA has developed away from me... from being a group that want to be a group, this has turned into a group of individuals...
The no longer any fun here...
