Happy Birthday Ricky 
30 is not just a number and the best part of your life is almost undoubtedly over!

Formal Attachment To Numbers 
I only attached formal significance to two birthdays: 27, because it's the idiot club, and 30, because when I was young and naive I had all these ideas about who I would be when I was 30. Turning 30, I had to admit that those things were never going to happen and who I am now, is who I am. But letting go of the last shreds of romantic idealism also forced me to adjust more, to try to chill out more like The Dude. I liked the following song's attitude - sad but still kind of happy:

As 
You get older, your knowledge increases and your responses to events become tempered by maturity. You get better at life.

In counterbalance, your body starts collapsing. You get aches where there were none, any party knocks the ode out of you for days and if you're unlucky you get bit by something nasty and incapacitating, but not mortal.

It's all a foreshadowing of the slow and steady descent into losing your mind and body, becoming trapped in a decaying husk, more and more detached from the real world.

Mortality.

Go give someone you love a hug. 
Happy Birthday Ricky 
 
Heh 
brutal

Tbh my soul has been chipped at for years. I remember turning away girls that I had fantasized about at high school being quite hard. I remember reaching 22-23 years old and suddenly realizing that life was starting to get away from me a bit. I remember realizing that I had a problem with my back. That started 3-4 years ago and I still have problems now. I remember when I broke my left pinky and thinking I'd never be as good on the guitar again. And I remember giving in to addiction...

Shall I go on? 
Go On? 
The only choice you have is the final solution. And I know you know more than you want to about that. 
In Case Anyone Here Hasn't Read The Awesomeness That Is Dunsany 
But as the feet of the foremost touched the edge of the hill Time hurled five years against them, and the years passed over their heads and the army still came on, an army of older men. But the slope seemed steeper to the King and to every man in his army, and they breathed more heavily. And Time summoned up more years, and one by one he hurled them at Karnith Zo and at all his men. And the knees of the army stiffened, and their beards grew and turned grey, and the hours and days and the months went singing over their heads, and their hair turned whiter and whiter, and the conquering hours bore down, and the years rushed on and swept the youth of that army clear away till they came face to face under the walls of the castle of Time with a mass of howling years, and found the top of the slope too steep for aged men.

From "In the Land of Time," a devastating fable that's about what ijed said.

Wheee 
That's what happens when I disable the left hemisphere of my brain with a pint of whiskey.

Sorry if I crossed the line Ricky. 
Quake Wiki 
is so unbelievably slow. I think if it's to be used more then it is going to have to be much much faster. 
Well, Tell Me. 
If it was used more I would probably be a better admin, sorry.

Did you get my email? 
I Did, Thanks 
 
Negke 
Yes. Just looked and responded.

Speed and being a good admin are different things IMO. 
It Is Fast Again, Right? 
I can fix the slowness by emptying some silly table which takes just a few minutes. 
Yeah Actually That Is Faster. 
I have been using it as a resource.

a Das Keyboard. It's the greatest keyboard ever. 
 
You should've got a Dranz keyboard, much better at mapping

Even Google has no idea what a Dranz keyboard is.
