17.10.2004 – Sunday 17 October – Rain & Little Else

• I slept in for a while and then caught a train into uni where I did my COMP3502 tute, some coding for COMP2801, talked to Kieran and Clint, and then headed home again, after buying a falafel roll from the kebab place down the Ville. It’s now raining and a bit cool.

Site News

• I’ve modified the search page on most of my sites so that it’s embedded, rather than linking to an external Google page. This is really pressing Google’s terms of service, so I hope they don’t mind.
  People write URI’s on the whiteboards at uni, which is often rather stupid but not really a problem, but when people write the URI of my site on the toilet walls at uni, and other people gouge it out again, I begin to wonder. This doesn’t happen to anyone else – should I be worried?

  Which toilets?

  Ned lives only at GP South, so I assume it's those toilets he is talking about.

Comment by Ned – Tuesday 19 October 2004, 3:50 PM

  Yes, the toilets in GPS. Ironically, and perhaps worryingly, someone has now rewritten a gouged-out URI.

  These things give me the pip. Cant you just try to be a nice ordinary nonentity, easily forgettable, bland, blase, boring as all shivers, so Mum doesna hae to worry, mon? (O' te greying hairs).

  I haven’t intentionally done anything different to anyone else – although obviously I have somehow.

  What kebab store?

Comment by Ned – Wednesday 20 October 2004, 4:06 AM

  It’s interesting that you should ask.

Comment by Lucas – Wednesday 20 October 2004, 11:53 AM

  You should take pictures of the URI's and put them up, both gouged and non-gouged (if there are any).

Comment by Reubot – Wednesday 20 October 2004, 11:56 AM

  I kinda meant which toilet location, I did a good check of the 2nd-level male toilets and a semi check of the 1st-level ones in GPS but I couldn't find them...

Comment by Reubot – Wednesday 20 October 2004, 2:05 PM

  Alright, I went down to GPS and found it this time....Can you say NEDDAGE? (Maybe you could say the wall was nedded).

Comment by Ned – Wednesday 20 October 2004, 2:35 PM

  I always wanted to be famous, but I’m not quite sure if this was what I had in mind...

  perhaps someone just wanted to get mentioned on your site, Ned. You are a celebrity, after all.
