Response to: The worst injury you have ever had Posted May 30th, 2003 in General

Erm I got hit with a pitchfork in my head. Actually it didn't hurt much but it bled like a bastard. Also sliced the tip of my finger off once whilst cheffing and that did bloody hurt (apparently humans have more nerve-endings in their fingertips than anywhere else in their bodies, including genitalia). And that beld like a bastard, too.

A love song... these are lyrics from songs I wrote (my music site is here), but I think they count as poetry.

SHINE THROUGH

You say you don’t know where you’re going, well neither do I
I know you have no way of knowing, and yet I’d still comply
if you asked me to join you. I wouldn’t need to think twice,
before I took your side.
The beauty within, seen through your eyes,
heard in your voice, you can’t disguise
natural movement when you take off the mask,
you’re a joy to behold.. please don’t be just the past.

And I see you shine through, yes I see you shine through.

Now I’m calling to you from across the sea
to ask if you could try to find space in your heart for me.
Until I see you I’ll be waiting, and counting down the weeks
until you set me free.
Love comes before everything else, I could love you
if you let me, I want to lose myself in your heart
I would sacrifice everything I know just to hold you,
just to touch you, to let my emotions show.

And I see you shine through, yes I see you shine through.

I wish I knew where I was going, but I have no idea.
And I have no way of knowing, so I’m waiting for you here.
I’ll worship you as the flower shining through the spring,
I’ll claim the joy you bring…

And I see you shine through, yes I see you shine through.

The Last Leaf

He’s late, you wait alone
He’s not coming, now you’re running home…
he said he had so many dreams to share with you…
you fell right in, hook, line & sin, he’s overdue.

You’re blind, waste time here
Warm heart disappear
you thought you knew the pathway through, but now it’s closed
it’s hard to have belief when love’s a plastic rose.

You need 100 for each of the first 5 ranks, then it goes up to 500, and eventually 4500 between ranks

Same album track 3

Too Late

So many people these days have no imagination
everybody’s used to being told just what to do.
It seems that TV has become the global occupation,
millions sit and waste their lives in pursuit of nothing new…
And Mr Spokesman says, “It’s worth you staying there”
He’s just an alibi, but no-one seems to care.

The time has come to change the world but everyone’s asleep,
although they claim they’re wide awake.
Now it’s time to speak your mind, but you’re always in retreat
and soon you’ll be too late
oh soon you’ll be too late.

So many bright ideas are crushed on the way to liberation.
The System always has a way to put you in your place.
Don’t seem there’s anyone to stand against this tide of desolation,
when the ones you want to fight are the ones you’ll never face…
God is gone, so we’ll pray to gold instead.
Hear us this day as we demand our daily bread.

The time has come to change the world but everyone’s asleep,
although they claim they’re wide awake.
Now’s the time to stand your ground, but you’re always in retreat
and soon you’ll be too late
oh soon you’ll be too late.

Please post opinions bad or good

Response to: NG's Poem topic! Posted May 28th, 2003 in General

Hmmm... hope you don't mind this, I write songs as opposed to poems, but I suppose it should count as poetry.

So Empty

You’ve got no time to understand what I say
You always close your eyes and look the other way
Is it because I frighten you? You should know I’m not trying to
why won’t you open your mind to the brand new day?

You seem so senseless to all that you see
You’ve lost all hope of ever being free
It’s not as pointless as it may seem, perhaps you should get back to chasing your dreams,
cos somehow you’ve lost everything that you used to be.

And I, I yearn to separate you,
teach you about your joy,
give you back your self-possession,
prevent you from being destroyed.

Oh how did you get to be so empty,
how did you come to burn so cold?
Can you remember when the laughter faded,
how did it feel when you lost control?

You left your heart somewhere in the past.
You don’t realise you’re living way too fast.
Hour by hour, you count the days, week by week your life is sliding away.
Year by year you slip further behind the mask.

And I, I long to wake your passion,
show you life outside these walls.
Can’t you see a new horizon,
can’t you hear the future call?

Oh how did you get to be so empty,
how did you come to burn so cold?
Can you remember when the laughter faded,
how did it feel when you sold your soul?

If you want to hear what it sounds like with music, check out my site by clicking sig. This one's on album 22 track 4

The egg, because dinosaurs laid eggs long before chickens appeared and started crossing roads left right & centre.
So there.

Response to: How're things running? Posted May 24th, 2003 in General

50% of the time throughout today (and the past few days) I've been getting Cannot find server/Cannot display page messages, seems to have only started since the upgrade. Occurs mostly on the Portal when loading movie description pages/movie windows, but has also happened often on the BBS too, along with the occasional error 3. Would really appreciate if it could be sorted cos it's ruining my enjoyment of NG and I've come close to knocking myself out by headbutting the monitor a few times today. Other people are having the same problem, so it's not just my location (UK)...

City or countryside? Posted May 24th, 2003 in General

Ho hum, you can tell I'm bored today. I promise this is the last topic I'll start for a while...

So... do you live in a city, or out in the countryside? Are you happy living where you live? Do you enjoy the nightlife, or wish you were somewhere quieter? Or are you living in the sticks and wish there was a 24-hour shop less than 10 miles away?

City or countryside?

Cannot find server/display page Posted May 24th, 2003 in General

OK I'm not complaining here, just wondering if others are getting the same errors or whether it's just cos I'm in the UK. 50% of the time when I click on a link to a movie from the portal, or a new page in the BBS, I get the:
The page cannot be displayed
The page you are looking for is currently unavailable. The Web site might be experiencing technical difficulties, or you may need to adjust your browser settings.

message. Please mention if this happens to you too, if not, please ignore/close this topic.
Cheers!

Response to: Best way Posted May 24th, 2003 in General

Yeah I've seen ZA Pro get good reviews too, so you're probably safe with those 2. If you're worried about MS spyware, there's also a program knocking around called XP Antispy, which you can run once and it will trun off all possible spyware. Possibly also worth running a trojan hunter once in a while, too, but sorry can't offer links for either as I generally get my software on Direct Connect (which has unfortunately gone downhill rather sharply over the past few months).

If you want to test your internet security, head over to grc.com , there's a lot of good information there, and a couple of tests you can run on your PC to see how 'visible' it is.
