Well I some action in the GuestBook the last couple of days. It’s kind of funny because it something everyone has done. I’m not talking about signing the GuestBook. I’m talking about signing it as two different people just to pimp two different websites. Either that it’s two guys using the same computer and internet service provider. Both Chuck and Mark have the same ip address. Any way here is what they had to say:

Name: Mark
Comments:

I visited your site and wanted to comment on how visually appealing it is. Nice work

When you have time please visit my site.

and

Name: Chuck
Comments:

I really enjoyed what I read. Don’t change a thing. Please visit my site when you get a chance.

Now I’m not trying to complain or anything. It’s just there is no need to beat around the bush with me. So frick and frack here have some websites.

Mark has UMoveFree.com a site that offers that they are “…committed to helping you and your family find the best possible place to live and save you time and money.” This guy is operating out of Texas, so it makes me wonder if the Dude sent him my way.

Chuck’s site Orlando Hotels Motels & Resorts is something that would on the surface seem related to my humble site. Chuck says he enjoyed what he read. But I wonder if he really read anything. The last This And That was a pretty harsh look on how I feel about hotel guests. Chuck’s site is trying to be helpful to possible hotel guests. That is just something I don’t do.

Either way it was good to have the two of you and thanks for the nice comments about my site.

South Beloit Ramada improvements begin is an Rockford Register Star Online article from the 6th of this month I missed when it first appeared. Here is a couple bits worth pointing out:

…a new roof was added to one of the wings.

and

…the hotel’s heating, ventilation and air-conditioning system has been repaired.

I am of course not saying the Rockford Register Star is lying. The roof thing I could be wrong about. But I find it odd that last night I’m told to be expecting complaints because the ac was on the fritz again. I’m just saying their fact checking skills are a little weak. Take it how you will.

You know the funny thing about truth? It’s all a matter of your point of view. What I consider the truth is all a matter of my point of view. The same thing I think is the truth could be considered a lie coming from someone else’s point of view. The only reason I bring this up is because of some events going on at the hotel. I hear lots of things from lots of people. From my point of view none of what I hear is even close to the truth.

Mike the guy who has been doing the audit with me has quit. So the mad dash to find and train a new auditor has started. Now according to my truth I’m the only one left who can train someone to do the night audit. I have to say that I’m going to miss Mike. Mike was/is a good guy. He has gone on to sunny California to find some new truths.

So I’m given a new audit trainee. A very smart and I should say very artistic person. And the whole artistic thing is a good quality as far as I’m concerned. Just seeing some young people who are interested in art makes me want to get going again on the whole artistic front.

As the usual for this kind of post I have strayed from the point. The point being trust no one. I hate to invoke a X-Files mantra, but that’s the only way to explain the way this hotel works. Take no ones word for granted. Everyone has an agenda. Even me. I will lie and spin the truth willingly for my own purposes.

Which may make you wonder what my agenda is? And like a great Bond villian I will tell you. Everything I do is to further chaos at the hotel. If I can cause enough trouble for the lying backstabbing management then I’m a happy man. If I can expose these frauds then I’m a happy man. If I can get even one or two other employees to think like I do then I’m a happy man. I guess my ultimate goal is to stick it to “them” as much as I can. And that makes me a happy man.

Well my PC is finally working again. I gave up on the idea of me fixing it myself. So I took it to a local computer store to have them look at it. I’m kicking myself now. I wasted probably two hundred dollars on three fans, a new hard drive, a new cd-rom, and a new power supply. The problem was that one of my sticks of 256mb of ram had gone bad. I’m a little embarrassed that I didn’t think of trying different ram.

That stick of bad ram caused a lot of havoc. It was the reason I couldn’t install Windows XP again. It’s amazing what kind of damage one stick of bad ram can do. I’m almost back to the state the computer was in before this all started. It’s hard to believe this has been going on since May 16 of this year.

Needless to say I’m a very happy guy now. Anyway to commemorate the occasion of having a working PC again here are some shots of the recently released Unreal Tournament 2003 (1024×768):

Unreal Tournament 2003 is lots of fun. Everything about UT2003 reminds me of Quake 3. From the menus to the characters and even the levels. I’m not saying this is a bad thing. I’m just saying it’s a lot like Quake 3.

It’s great having a working computer again. But I can’t help feel like I’m waiting for the other shoe to drop. I guess I have had it working so many times like it was fine, just to have it go to hell on me later. I have my fingers crossed.

I talked to the guy who runs the Coleman Posse website on AIM the other day. It wasn’t a major conversation, it was just a polite hello. I really like the guy, for what I know of him. I urge everyone to go check his site if you have not yet. Apparently he’s been getting some shit from some assholes saying he’s copying another site’s whole vibe. Which is bullshit. Go check him out for yourself.

And for good measure here are two other links I found at the Coleman Posse links page. Hotmail Sucks and Tourist of Death. Both of these sites are done by the same person.

Hotmail Sucks made me laugh hard reading about his problems with some AOL user bitching about his Tourist of Death website. After telling the AOl user to “go punch yourself in the balls” the AOL guy narks him out to Hotmail and his account gets yanked. It’s funny stuff and the amazing thing was when the Hotmail Sucks host backed up the guys rights when the little bitch of AOL user e-mailed the website host to complain.

Holy shit! I have a broadband connection and man is it fast. It’s the Charter Pipeline deal the cable company does. I signed up for only the cheapest one and it moves like lightning. Only bad thing is that no more internet at work. Oh well.

I don’t want to go to work. I don’t want to leave my internet connection behind. That’s the only bad thing about the cable modem. I can’t use it at work. I canceled my AOL account I had been using at work when the computer was down. Well that’s about it. I have to get ready for work.
