Classic DF – 12/14/99

Dec. 14, 1999: DF News– I’ve settled my differences with Marlin and he apologized to Melissa and I. I accepted. End of story. Red Raven will be returning as a manager to his home store. Rock is back and he has posted his latest lyrics. Sexiestar has moved into her new house. Mermaid is considering his latest video card purchase. I’m going to be posting the revamped DF web page somewhere short of Dec. 29th. Also, you should see new songs posted somewhere during that time. World NewsCharles Schultz in light of his cancer diagnosis is retiring his Peanuts cartoon by mid-January. Cuban Nationals are demanding deportation to Cuba and won’t take no for answer… they got hostages. Can dead children attend school? They can if you live in New York. A blood transfusion has cured a boy of sickle cell anemia, a big step towards eradicating the disease. The U.S. government is begging hackers not to cause any havoc during the Y2K roll over as they’ll have enough problems to deal with, um… do they think hackers care? Much as I suspected when I passed through a interrogation checkpoint in Warwick, a fatal crash was the result of some idiot(s) in the area removing several stop signs… people are such assholes. MTV will be airing a NIN live concert Dec. 21st followed by a Trent interview. Check out Suckdot news, a great spoof of Slashdot. Media Fusion has patented high speed Internet access via power lines and we’re talking one gigabyte per second speeds! SkyDSL will begin beaming 4Mbs streams via satellite in France. By pulling down the Babylonian Virus homepage the virus is dead… hopefully no one will re-post the site. CERT is saying that ssH secure shell is not hack proof… no REALLY! Any predictions for Y2K? I’ve been wondering what the popular opinion about what’s going to happen is. E-mail with your predictions. And as always… Mel I luv u 🙂

Classic DF – 12/3/99

Dec. 3, 1999: Noteworthy News: NASA has landed on Mars with a space craft that will “hear” what Mars sounds like… sort of. A promising new drug seems to eliminate leukemia, a big step towards eradicating cancer. A new cookie “hole” has been found in e-mail. The Free PC movement has flopped on its face. Chanukah starts at sun down this evening. EarthLink has a hole in its software. Germany may ban Windows 2000, but not due to monopoly problems… we’re talking religion here. Keep an eye on the stock market… it just capped 11, 000 plus as the NASDAQ continues to soar. Look for an early pull out around Christmas (no pun intended) and another normalization period… maybe 🙂 That’s if Y2K doesn’t obliterate us, LOL. DF 10990 News: Marlin’s Place features a response to yesterday’s post… big surprise. And as predicted (maybe I’m physic too) he denied everything and got pissy. Of course, innocent people don’t get pissy, but then again he may not be exactly innocent after all, hmmmmm. The lesson to be learned Sam: don’t open your big fucking mouth if you don’t have anything interesting to say (BTW I didn’t say anything to anyone… however, I forgot you trust the whore who screwed you over again and again over the people who had your back while she was doing it). Mervernation makes sense of the the whole auto industry trend towards rice burners and ummmm… he’s right. Melissa defends me over on her news page, but more importantly she has been sober for over seven months today. Once again I’m proud of her and love her with all my heart 🙂 Rock‘s web page is still down, but you got to dig that white on white motif! Speaking of Rock and his server I’ve come to a conclusion. I’m ready to make a public statement on DF’s opinion on Jeph.Net‘s future. In recent days Tom has added his Korpios.Net. I see he has moved his stuff around. Undoubtedly, rumors have been flying that he is mad at Marlin and Red Raven for attempting to oust him. Jeff has let me know that Tom is a necessity to this web page’s continued service. Immortalis asked me if I was backing Tom the other day. So here is the response: I’m backing DF.com. It’s Jeff’s server so I leave it to Jeff to make the decision on what to do. Either way the virtual domain for azazel.digitalflood.com won’t get registered. And frankly almost every person has become as trust worthy as another with a few exceptions (you know who you are). I only wish that Immy’s web page was restored… and one day I hope that will come to pass. Clearly now the enemy is not one person. Nor is it one side, but multiple fragmented fights. I grow tired of the infighting. The hate mail. The eggs on my car (Jesus can’t you people grow up?). The accusations. The stupid posts back and forth. The dumb ass opinions of a bunch of ummmmm…. dumb ass opinion people 🙂 I’d rather focus on my marriage, my wife, my family, and my job then on them. So I will continue to work on a revamped DF.com Portal. I will continue to develop a new interface. And yes, I will continue to decimate the news to the masses that matters. BTW Tom… I got dibs on Warwick 10990… hell, I coined the phrase… And that is what I will continue to do… piss everyone off! Stay tuned for our next post when in our upcoming holiday post Mel and I will be conquering a small third world country…

Classic DF – 10/23/99

Oct. 23, 1999: Last night I got a call from Covalence, and much like a boss firing an employee after they quit, told me I was exhile. Furthermore, I’m not to contact him, BUT my wife, brother, and mother can… ummmm… why would they want to? After all, if you “exhile” me then why would they want to stay in contact with him? Hmmmm… more disallusions of a sick young man indeed. Of course this has liberated me of any ties to his sorry ass (which most of the people I know are tired of anyhow). To quote Covalence directly, “I have become what I most feared.” Yes, that is true… I have become my own person and that was my original intent from day one. Talked to Gundam too. He apologized for his actions and in turn Mel and I have forgiven him… in the end Gundam was upset and that made him angry. So why forgive one person and not another? Well, first off Gunny has respect and was nice enough to talk about it. Instead of telling me how he dissapproves we actaully found out what the root of the problem was. The conversation with Covalence on the other hand became a “I can’t believe your so wrong Chris” conversation… and if I was the object of abuse how was that my fault? As Gun and Mel pointed out, it isn’t. Second, Gun has a sense of honor and values the friendship with loyalty. Finally, there was a valued lesson learned, those who care will actaully say it and be able to prove it. ‘Nuff said. I’ve been taking Tae-robics. It’s some where between dance, kickboxing, and martial arts with stretching. I really like the class alot and it really works well. Look for some DF stuff soon: Mel is going to be posting a new single soon and it is phat yo 🙂 Kevin and Gundam are forming a band together. Should really be exciting stuff coming out of there and I’m looking forward to what they end up producing. Well, hopefully now that 90210 part deux is over I can get back to ranting about important stuff again LOL 🙂

Classic DF – 10/22/99

Oct. 22, 1999: Everyone has an opinion and in the words of Rev. Daemon Immortalis, “That’s a beautiful thing”. However, sometimes if you can’t say something nice you shouldn’t say it at all. That’s from Mrs. Brigsby in the The Secret of Nimh. She was a smart mouse. Rock has shared his insights into Melissa and my posts about “friends”. I guess Rocky was right on that point, but sometimes being mute only leads to being taken advantage of. As was this case, I believe… I could be wrong (but I’m not so shut up for a second and keep reading:). The only life long friend I’ve ever had was my Mom… she has been there since she shot me out of her crotch 22 yrs. ago. Ummmmm… everyone else has been there less time. I guess that isn’t wasn’t what Rock meant exaclty… I think he was striving for the more proper term of “long time friend”. Well, I did choose my long time friend. Rock, I don’t want to hurt your feelings, but you won’t stay any longer with one person than the one you marry. That person will be the longest friend (and lover etc…) you’ll ever have. Your wife should be forever, at least that is what Mel and I are striving for. Anything less and you shouldn’t marry that person. So I did choose my long time friend and companion, Melissa. So what is it Rock was really talking about? I think what he was hoping to say was: Damn it flAn, why don’t you wait for them understand your marriage like you did for me?! Good point, I have an answer: 1.) When you love someone as deeply as I love Mel you defend that person from anyone who is out to hurt them… they were out to hurt her and Covalence was hoping to somehow steal back Mel… the reality check for him should have been she was never his and she hates his lame butt. But, that’s another point for another time. 2.) Covalence didn’t want to understand us… he wanted to destroy us. Why? I don’t know… maybe he has become the big drinker he was bragging to everyone he is… maybe he’s an alcoholic or something. The only help I could offer him is the advice to seek professional counseling and treatment in a good Betty Ford Clinic 🙂 He never supported our marriage not because it was too fast, but because he was jealous; case closed. That person isn’t a friend…. and Rock if you think that person is a friend: me and you need to discuss why you shouldn’t let people use you or hurt you, even if you think they are a friend… they are not. 3.) Who cares about their friends more than their wife… oh yeah, those divorced guys! Don’t be foolish sheeeeeeeesh!!! I can understand what he means though (and I say that without sarcasism). You think, Rock, that if I give those idiots a chance maybe then they’ll figure out that Mel and I followed our hearts… that’s why we didn’t wait and we spend so much time together, because we really love each other. I couldn’t agree more with you my friend EXCEPT Covalence isn’t going to accept that… he hates both of us because we are everything he wishes he was: married and happy. Jealousy will never allow friendship and hatred can never be ignored. So I give you this… we’ve given everyone a chance to understand us; it is them who refuse to understand and therefore never will. There is no reason to hold onto friends when they are long gone from the time you were friends. There is no reason to hope for change when they never will. And there is nothing to say when they won’t hear what you have to say. The deaf ear hears nothing. They have choosen their lives, and I have choosen mine. I am happy with my choice. Are they happy with theirs?
