Poverty is good... you lose weight, learn to really appreciate money, begin to take care of your stuff so you don't have to replace it.

Prolonged poverty, however, is bad

Jumped on a tram on Elizabeth St, happy i didn't have to wait for the next one. The tram gets to Bourke st, and runs over 2 people :shock: They got trapped under the tram. At least 10 emergency vehicles turn up. Crazy business. It was a man and a woman. I don't know what they were doing in the middle of the road. The tram driver looked so sick. He just sat there and swore with his head in his hands when i first happened. People just stood around and watched, it seemed like it was going to be an effort to get them out without causing them more harm. I didn't stick around. Felt wrong. Anyone else see this happen?

There was a random woman who jumped on board the tram almost immediately and told everyone to stay where they were. Then later she was looking under the tram, was told to leave by the cops, and then when she saw all the people looking she goes "you're all disgusting" :shock: Ahem... hypocrite!!
Another woman told me (she was also looking under the tram) that it was a man and woman, and there was no blood. How she could tell i have no idea. All i could see was an arm. :? :(

I just got this in my inbox:

Subject: Cherish what you have.

With all the news on TV lately about the massive
Tsunami waves in Asia destroying and killing
everything in its path, and the dire predictions made
by such films as The Day After Tomorrow, we shouldn't
forget that Australia has its share of devastating
weather too.

Attached is a photo illustrating the damage caused to
Someone's home from a storm that passed through
Melbourne last week.

It really makes you cherish what you have, and reminds
us not to take things for granted.

Take care of yourself and be safe.

I drove past the area and saw no blood on the road, the police blocked off the area and were trying to divert traffic. At that time, there was only a spray-painted mark around the area and police were taking photographs of it. Listening to the 3AW and they said the woman was injured, but not seriously and was recovering well in hospital from the ordeal. There was no mention of any man though :cry:

I was complaining to my mate about jobs, no money etc etc in January and he said "hey could have been worse. at least you werent affected by a tsunami". :oops:

if he had said it last week though when we had no power after that storm, would have been a bit different :evil:

:lol:

no, but if I have a day off this week I'm scouring EVERY op shop in Geelong for an "I'm with Stupid" t-shirt.

And aren't we all geeks, who get off on watching other geeks mix electronic geek music on a mixer or, if they're real geeky, a computer, or even better - a sampler and synth, all to be topped off by logging onto an internet site to tell our fellow geek friends how good it was to be surrounded by our geek mates watching some other geek do his geek thing????

Are you talkin about ip numbers soulwhite?

I was about to say those guys look more like nerds to me. I'm a geek, and I like to think that geeks are nerds who aren't socially incompetant. Unfortunately, both of the people in that photo have somehow found each other, which throws my definition off a bit.

If they'd custom made those shirts, then they'd definitely be nerds.

Oh, and what does the biohazard symbol represent in geek/nerd mythology? Is it like a symbol of how l337 you are or something?

hey D-Boy, howzit?

I got two firewalls and some soulseek tards (I'm assuming) managed to fuck with my (newish) computer....

I'm taking it to the shop to get cleaned the fuck up and put in my new sound card and Ableton and Cubase......

and then none of you will hear from me ever again, save for the odd dance track popping up here or there.....
