Walking on a sea of reflective light

Wager All

nospam@example.com (John Stetter) — 2010-07-07T20:29:33Z

And here I am
Softer than a shower
And here I am
To garland you with flowers

To lay you down
In clover bed
The stars a roof
Above our heads

And all my life
I never felt the tremor
And all my life
That now disturbs my fingers

I lay you down
In clover bed
The stars a roof
Above our heads

And we'll lie 'til the Corn Crake crows
Bereft of the weight of our summer clothes
And I'd wager all

The hazards of love
The hazards of love

And take my hand
And cradle it in your hand
And take my hand
To feel the pull of quicksand

I lay you down
In clover bed
The stars a roof
Above our heads

And we'll lie 'til the Corn Crake crows
Bereft of the weight of our summer clothes
And I'd wager all

The hazards of love
The hazards of love
The hazards of love
The hazards of love

Physicans Plus Insurance Company Sucks

nospam@example.com (Slowplanet Blog Admin) — 2010-01-15T02:15:49Z

I now have Physicans Plus Insurance, and they pretty much want me to get sicker and sicker. I find it funny that their url is 'healthchoicebigrewards.com'. They are getting the big rewards [my premium increased almost 100 bucks/month], and they are denying me medication which has proven to make me better.

Here begins the appeal and litigation aspect. That'll do wonders for stress levels, which we all know, make my health degrade even more. My employer leaving Unity was the worst things that's ever happened since my inception there. I'd say it's fair that it'll be the catalyst to head West sooner.

PPI: Wanting to have their subscribers get sick and die rather than treat them.

Waking Life

nospam@example.com (Slowplanet Blog Admin) — 2010-01-09T03:41:04Z

Down through the centuries, the notion that life is wrapped in a dream has been a pervasive theme of philosophers and poets. So doesn't it make sense that death too would be wrapped in dream? That after death, your conscious life would continue in what might be called a dream body? It would be the same dream body you experience in your everyday dream life. Except that in the post-mortal state, you could never again wake up, Never again return to your physical body.

Accessing Mac OS X Windows Sharing from Windows 7

nospam@example.com (Slowplanet Blog Admin) — 2009-10-25T20:08:15Z

Accessing Mac OS X Windows Sharing from Windows 7
Windows 7 will not work with Mac OS X Windows file sharing support by default. If you attempt to access a folder shared from Mac OS X, Vista will display a logon error repeatedly.
The problem is that Vista, by default, will only use NTLMv2 for authentication, which is not supported by Mac OS X's Windows Sharing service.
The other problem is the Minimum Session Security for NTVLM SSP based Clients.
To get around this:
1. In Vista, open the Control Panel
2. Switch to "Classic" view
3. Double-click Administration Tools
4. Double-click Local Security Policy
5. Or Secpol.msc
6. Expand "Local Policies" and select "Security Options"
7. Alternate : Type secpol.msc to get editor up then
8. Locate "Network Security: LAN Manager Authentication Level" in the list and double-click it.
9. Change the setting from "Send NTMLv2 response only" to "Send LM & NTLM - use NTLMv2 session if negotiated"
10. Network Security: Minimum session security for NTLM SSP Based (including secure RPC) Clients
11. Change the setting from "require 128 bit" to unchecked (No Minimum)
12. Click OK

the real difference between vista and windows 7 procedure is 10 and 11

SSPU: The Royal We

nospam@example.com (Slowplanet Blog Admin) — 2009-07-10T18:53:37Z

We are ready for the siege
We are armed up to the teeth
Be careful how you live and breathe
Release what's broken underneath

How many times do you wanna die?
How many ways do you wanna die?

Do you feel safe again? Look over your shoulder
Very carefully look over your shoulder

We can laugh about it now
We hope everything works out
Be careful how you lick your wounds
Believe that change is coming soon

How many times do you wanna die?
How many ways do you wanna die?

Do you feel safe again? Look over your shoulder
Very carefully look over your shoulder

You used to do a little, but a little won't fly
Right before you hit your prime
That's when we fell in love, but not the first time

Can I please you still?
Remain in your father's will
Or does it make you ill?

Let us bruise their knees
We went in straight for a defeat
You will be relieved

So relieved, so relieved to the flow, and desire
Bitter sparks to the friendly fire
Misery inspires

Your throwin' me cuts several times before
Never noticed the size of the flow
Make it be ignored

Do you feel safe again? Look over your shoulder
Carefully look over your shoulder

You said you believe, but believing won't fly
Right before you hit your prime
That's when we fell in love, but not the first time

And when it's all over and you open your eyes
You see the room turned on its side
And you'll be lying down and over on the floor; signed,

The Royal We (x8)
Love The Royal We

Reason Is Treason

nospam@example.com (Slowplanet Blog Admin) — 2009-06-29T19:51:35Z

Here come the morning that I say goodbye to ya
Here come the morning that'll say goodbye
but I don't turn around 'cause the reason is treason
Here come the morning that I say goodbye to ya
Here come the morning that'll say goodbye
but I don't turn around 'cause the reason is treason

See the stones coming at my window
See they left man no protection
T ell his family that he will be ok
K-I-LL!

Check the angles from both forces
overcome by the need to fight it
fight it
fight it
fight it
fight it

Here come the morning that I say goodbye to ya
Here come the morning that'll say goodbye
but I don't turn around cause the reason is treason

I hear the sounds all around

Here's your future

God reached his hand down from the sky
He flooded the land then he set it on fire
He said, "Fear me again. No, I'm your father.
Remember that no one can breathe underwater"

So bend your knees and bow your heads
Save your babies, here's your future
Yeah, here's your future

God reached his hand down from the sky
God asked Noah if he wanted to die
He said no sir
Oh, no, sir

God said here's your future
It's going to rain
So we're packing our things
We're building a boat
Where God will create the new master race
Cause we're so pure
Oh, we're so pure
So here's your future

God told his son it's time to come home
I promise you won't have to die all alone
I need you to pay for the sins I create
His son said, "I will but Dad, I'm afriad"

Yeah, so here's your future
Here's your future
Yeah, here's your future
So here's your future
So here's your future
So here's your future

Why is it that...???

Think about it

nospam@example.com (John Stetter) — 2009-02-02T20:35:30Z

Well, here I come

I'm on a run

Who wants to fight temptation, that's no fun

C'mon and play the games

Don't you feel no shame

That's what Eve said to Adam

Before she came

You can smile now, cry later on

You know that it might be wrong, but it feels so good

Like you know it would

There's damnation and disgrace

And guilt rears its ugly face, yet you beg for more

Just a little more

Stand in line

Don't you lose your mind

Try like me to seek your pleasure three at a time

There's souls for sale

You're gonna burn in Hell

And if tomorrow never comes

It's just as well

You can smile now cry later on

You know

That it must be wrong but it feels so good

Like you know it would

There's damnation and disgrace

And guilt rears its ugly face, yet you beg for more

Just a little more

Uah

Feel the pain

I feel it too

Have your hedonistic ways, got the best of you

Playing the games

Don't feel no shame

That's what Eve said to Adam

Before she came

You can smile now, cry later on

You know

That it's definitely wrong but it feels so good

Like you know it would

There's damnation and disgrace

And guilt rears its ugly face, yet you beg for more

Just a little more

Come on and beg for more

Just a little more
