Just Go Ahead Now

My bittersweet affair with OWB continued. The venue changed, but the quest remained the same.

To conquer OWB -- whatever it took.

At least this time it wasn't so bad -- technically, Sembawang is still SG -- as I had come prepared. Prepared for the worst, that is. Anyway, having consigned myself some long time ago to a firefighter role, I accepted the challenge. Fully aware that once you rolled in, there was no rolling out.

Firefox 1.0PR

Noia-powered Firefox 1.0PRGranted, I'm an internet freak. So, what's worse for an internet freak than being posted at a client site without internet access? Being posted at a client site without internet access and not feeling sad at all. Oh well, I guess we can chalk it as another sign of people changing.

So anyway. I just upgraded my Firefox to version 1.0 Preview Release. The first thing it told me after the installation? That my Noia 2.0 (eXtreme) theme was deemed incompatible with this Firefox 1.0PR.

Many thanxes to this person, who, in hating two-timers, has inspired this entry.

Personal Best

The girl passed him just off the 300-m mark.

Ali looked up from his watch with surprise. Few joggers passed him. No girls ever had. Not when he was at his usual running pace.

A shrewd database administrator, Ali prided himself on being the fittest person in the entire IT department. While most would prefer the gym, he liked running better. Almost every evening -- sometimes whatever left of a DBA's life started at 9 or 10 PM -- he jogged for five kilometers. Seven on weekends.

Celotehan Akhir Minggu

Tadinya judul di atas bunyinya "Keluhan Minggu Ini" tapi trus kok kesannya kayak Album Minggu Ini. Entar Buncis nggak ngerti, dia kan belon lahir waktu itu. Trus diganti jadi "Keluhan Minggu Siang" en malah jadi inget sebuah rumah kecil tertentu. Diganti lagi jadi "Keluhan Akhir Minggu" karena nulisnya sama sekali bukan pas siang. Malah bukan hari Minggu juga. Tapi ternyata setelah dibaca-baca lagi isinya nggak cuma keluhan, makanya diganti lagi.

BTW, kalo denger kata "celotehan" kok selalu inget ama Ibu Anie ya?
