    I don't know much about amps at all, but you might find you can barely get anything out of it before it gets too loud (could be completely wrong because I'm an idiot) and thumpy. My Vox AD50VT is super loud to me, I can barely turn the master volume switch a few degrees before it starts rumbling. I haven't had the best of gear before that so maybe I'm just used to bad equipment being low volume, but this thing absolutely thumps the room. It's got a power level switch on the back so you can run it at anywhere from 0 to the rated 50 watts, if you decide you actually like your neighbours. It's got a wicked high gain setting, and a lovely boutique clean, as well as tons of stuff in between.
    Whoops, went off topic and started talking about myself again :p

    Sorry to hear that.

    Hopefully you'll get better.

    I think a lot of us here like ice cream.

    Being sick isn't fun.

    After owning the trilogy for over a year, I finally finished up with the third S.T.A.L.K.E.R. game. Loads of terrifying creatures and nonstop dangers populate the games at every turn, but it has the gall to make saying goodbye the hardest thing. A world of beautiful danger.

    Now I know how the people on the helicopter at the end of Jurassic Park felt. Mutilated coworkers notwithstanding.

    I did a good deed just now and felt like sharing it. I went to pick up something from a friends house and on my way there I see an unmarked Buick cop car with a late model altima pulled over. On my way home the cop is gone but the altima is still there. I pull over and this kid is with his girlfriend, maybe 18 or 19 years old. I ask what's wrong and his car won't start. I quickly figure out his battery is dead, and after the tow company tells him a jump is 85 bucks, I Said screw it and told him to tell the guy to go f himself. I ran home, got some cables and went back to jump him. Turns out it was his first day driving ever. He knew NOTHING about cars. When you have a chance to help out a desperate noob, do it. Noblesse oblige. Google it.

    Listening to the building that I live in creaking in the wind is slightly disconcerting, then again I did think that my door lock had broken preventing it from opening, turns out it was just the air pressure difference between my room and the corridor.

    According to the News we can expect 70-80mph gusts of wind. Fun.

    Photoshop vs GIMP for texturing? Any thoughts?

    My house is only shaking a miniscule bit with the wind, but it will probably still cause 80 million cracks in the ceiling.

    I had to deal with that wind too. It sucks for when you need to go to the shop.

    It's worth it for some cake ;)

    Also, the wind seems to have broken the extractor fan in the bathroom.

    There wasn't any nice looking cake that I could have transported home :/

    But there was half price Hagendaaz and some chocolate eclairs. So all good I guess.

    The rail networks have ground to a halt - trees down everywhere.
    Meanwhile, in other news, I just got an unconditional acceptance to Canterbury College.

    Ben and Jerry's is way better than Hagen Daas.
