Hosting is now...... renewed!!! it was on my mind for ages, but now it's done and out of the way for another year (I got my hosting almost exactly a year ago). Anyway, I have just had dinner, I am showered, shaved and shitted, I just need to get dressed. Yes, we are going to Jilly's Rockworld! I can relax when we get into town and am holding a cold beer! Not much else to say except see you later guys, let's hope I see in 2009 alive!

Had a very strange dream this morning, I was in a bar in Amsterdam and was going to ask for absinthe, although I didn't, so I sat down and someone came and sat down on my right, it was no other than Marcus Brigstocke, without the glasses, I think I asked him if he was Dominic Brigstocke or Marcus, I get the two mixed up, one is a comedian, the other is a producer, I'm not sure if they're related, anyway, I think he was reading a paper and I was doing some studying of some sort.

New Year's Eve is drawing ever closer, may be going to Jilly's to see off 2008 and toast 2009, it will be a nice end to the year and the beginning of 2009, which for me, I think will be one of hard work, continuing my life-long quest for knowledge and taking care of the Five Year Plan! Ohhh shit yeah, I have an outstanding invoice which needs to be paid for my hosting, I mean come on, £60 a year, it's a bargain, especially since I can host multiple sites on it with different domains!

I've been working on another site lately and it has to be said it is looking pretty snazzy, so I may try and make this site a little more presentable in the coming weeks, I'll try and attract a larger demographic with some nice backgrounds, headers and shit. Safe safe!

I am sat here listening to Metallica (The Four Horsemen) and drinking Jack Daniels from the bottle. Merry Christmas and all that. Anyway, I want to rant tonight about the Krauts(Germans) of BF2. For some inexplicable reason, they seem to think they are exempt from the ROE that all BF2 server admins have to abide by. I was on one server a couple of days ago called =SOW=, it was a vehicle Karkand server, yet you were kicked for stepping into an APC, tank or anything which wasn't a a car. Of course, being a German server, C4 and claymores were verboten, as were commanders. Another thing... this 'GGC', the German players of BF2 have resorted to creating their own 'Aryan' master ban list used by many German servers, they seem to think they are above Punkbuster/PBbans etc, perhaps this is an indication of a deep, intrisic desire of Germans to control everything they can, much like some certain events which happened between 1939 and 1945, anyway....

I'd also like to stick two fingers up to our Yank friends at ICANN, yes, I am sticking two fingers up at their policy of insisting those who register domains under their jurisdiction are up-to-date with genuine WHOIS contact details. I think that sucks for people with .com/.net/.org domains who want to keep their name and address details private, we have laws in this country to keep that sort of stuff private, and with .uk domains you do have the option to hide this information, thank you Nominet, USA take note! Anyway, speaking of domains, my invoice is ready for my next year of hosting, I am very pleased with my current hosts and will be renewing for another year for the bargain price of £60.

Looking forward to 2009, good times are ahead, I can feel it! It's amazing, it's been nearly a year since I first registered HWDN, I remember having so many plans for it, although priorities have now changed, but HWDN and Hellwrath are as relevant as ever! I am now at about 35,000 points in BF2, I look forward to getting to Sergeant Major, I'm about 15,000 points away, you can usually find me in EAF or uKm Karkand servers ammo whoring away! Anyway guys, this will probably be the last post of 2008, happy Christmas and see you later, I've got some whiskey to drink!
