I thought Las Vegas real estate was getting out of hand!

10-foot-wide shed sells for $269,100 in Dublin
Startling price for tiny structure highlights Ireland's real estate boom
Updated: 9:12 a.m. ET Sept. 19, 2005

DUBLIN, Ireland - A former tool shed built to fill a gap in the middle of a row of Victorian houses in what was once Dublin’s poorest district has found a buyer at a startling price of $269,100 (220,000 euros).

At 10 feet wide and with a floor space of 280 square feet the building was last sold for 500 Irish pounds ($777) in the 1970s.

The red-brick house has no garden and no ground floor windows.

The realtor selling the property said on Monday a sale had been agreed but declined to comment further.

The price tag raised eyebrows even in Ireland where the cost of homes has tripled between 1997 and 2004.

Ok,
New job...IT guy is completely overwhelmed...(I understand completely) they say that I probably won't be getting my computer right away...

So I volunteered to bring my box to work...no problems there.

They're a PC shop, but apparently the former members of the video production department all used Macintoshes.

So, there's two G5's and a Dual 1gig G4 sitting around.

I abscond with one of the G5's...start playing with it.

Started to like it.

Picked up my last check from my former job...decided that I needed to treat myself...so what do you get a techie geek? Hardware of course. But what hardware? Don't have enough for a Plasma...

Fry's had the Mac Mini on sale. Being curious about the Mac now, I went down to see it in person.

OMG! This thing is TINY! It had sort of a "cute puppy" appeal...

So, I bought one...

It's been many years since I last owned a Macintosh...Performa 600 to be exact. Around System 7.5 days if I remember right...

OSX is kinda nice...trying to remember the stuff that Presenze showed me about BSD...

Remembering that he said "it's not quite BSD, but Apple's implementation of it"

Found a cool widget to tail differnt logfiles...

I have too damn many computers around here...time for a garage sale!

Once again...

You scored as Demon. Demon: Darkness is your sanctuary. Demons are many and are all different in appearence and rank. The most common are the ones that feed off of human souls. They love to make someone fall into their inner darkness. Blood, wrath, murder... You name it they love it. These beings don't care who you are, if they set their sights on you, let's just hope you know a good excorist. They kill any love within you and pull you toward their side. By any means possible. You wish for chaos and hate, you are the Demon.

You're Deputy Travis Junior. You spend more time
trying to train the German Shepherds (by
speaking French) than you spend with your
fellow officers. You let the dogs kiss your
mouth and then you dont wash off the dog
saliva. You also think Wiegel is hot, which is
a little weird.

I'm actually sitting here coming to the realization that I actually have weekends off.

no emergency calls from the boss, no responding to and investigating alarm activity at the office.
(I've ignored one already!)

No more finding out on wednesday that I have to work sat and sun...

Already have some plans sort of planned for today and tomorrow...but the upcoming weeks?
wow, I guess I have to get a hobby or something, huh?

Less than a week

Sat, 23 Jul 2005 05:28:09 GMT

I start a new job...

It's a start up production studio for an internet marketing company. We will be providing streaming media and video production services to our clients.

The good thing is:

I have to have a studio / control room / editing suites all built within six weeks!

The bad thing is:

I have to have a studio / control room / editing suites all built within six weeks!

Another bad thing is actually leaving the company for which I currently work.
Granted, the boss can be a pain to deal with at times, but on the whole, I've worked for worse places and people in my career...

Even more so, I will miss my co-workers. Over the last two years, they've become more than just colleagues, they're my friends...

But, since I'm taking a job across town, and not in another state, I can keep in touch with them, and since a fair amount of these folks freelance, it's a pretty good chance I'll be working with them again sometime in the near future..

Hmmm
