YAY!!! I got a letter today saying that I received the stimulus bonus. WOOHOO!!!
I was initially scared because I heard other people couldn't get it because they claimed back all their tax back that year. I couldn't remember if I claimed all mine back, and I couldn't check because I lost my 07-08 tax return form.
But all good now :)
Wonder what I should buy. Maybe that moded Wii, but... I probably will have to wait till July. Or maybe get a new camera lens, like a AF Nikkor 50mm f/1.4D. Maybe even a 600W Studio Flash Kit, though, I'll probably need a studio to maximise it's usage.
Hmm..... how should I stimulate the economy???.... hmm........ why don't I just save up the money for the car. Decisions, decisions...........

lolz!... Today I was in a car with no working speedometer, traveling from Gosford to Campbletown. I was helping move furniture. This car was very "senior", carrying pots, computers, microwaves, toasters and more, towing in addition, a trailer. In the trailer was a full sized fridge, building material, and several other large pot plants.
I learnt how to judge how fast you are going without the help of a speedometer? How???
Judge it by how fast the other cars around you are going. =)
(hmm........., mozilla doesn't recognise learnt as a proper word)

Why is an escalator called an escalator when only half the time it is going up (escalating), and the other time is going down (de-escalating)?

Anyways, at work, I'm known as Dex! Haha.. it's pretty cool. I've never had another nickname in my life, except for Ray (which really isn't a nickname). The head content-collecter gave me the name, and everyone else seems to have picked it up well :)
The head content-collector also calls me Ze Ray, because I sign off as Ze Ray when I leave him notes to finish off a service job. (WHIP WHIP)
Aahhh.... me and my "awesome" accents XD.......
Talking to colleagues today, we were discussing our eye vision. We talked about the definition of far sightedness and close sightedness, which came to conclusion that close sightedness is clear vision between you and the screen infront of you, while, far sightedness is everything that's further than that. Does that sound right???
Anyways, after the discussion, I decided to play a prank of them. I downloaded an eye chart, printed it out, and then took the same file, and blurred the image.
With those two pieces of paper, one behind the other, I approached them up close, and explained that I was going to work out how good their vision was. All they had to do was read out as many letters as possible. The un-blurred version was shown.
I then walked off with my back towards them. At this stage, I swapped the two around.
I stopped. Turned around. I asked them to start reading.
Everyone was glaring at it, trying to read it.
There was utter silence for 2 seconds.
One then shouted out "We're not stupid ray, that one's blurred"
DAMN!!! HAHAHAHAHA............ Had them for at least a few seconds anyway.
