Back from Canada

Welcome back...

As I was mentioning in the last blog entry, James and I went to City Hall to apply for our marriage license. We already set the time and date with the Justice of the Peace... filled out the paperwork and then was told, Sorry we hold the license for 3 days, today being Wednesday, it won't be ready until Monday
So we had 2 options.... Plan B.. we simply change the date so it's after Monday or...Plan C... we go to the court house, ask the Judge/Magistrate to waive the 3 day waiting period and we may get charged a fee, or we may not get charged a fee.

We toyed with Plan C.. went to the court house..Asked a few questions and was told that the fee would be $195.00 and if we felt that we could not afford to pay that, we could fill out a Financial Statement.
Good God!! Is that really necessary?!? All that extra paperwork and paying out $195 just to shave off 1 day. In the end, we went with Plan B... I called the JP and asked if he was available for Monday... Luckily he was able to squeeze us in at 7pm

James's parents will be driving down Sunday evening and they want to take us out to dinner Monday night. We'll will be taking a rain check on our Honeymoon... My job being the way it is... and money being tight, We'll have plenty of time to plan for that

Once we are officially Married and we are Mr. & Mrs. Jambon James can apply to be my Sponsor, hopefully get approved and then I can apply to get my Permanent Resident Card... *sigh*
The government sure doesn't make things easy. But it's their game, their rules and we have to play by their standards in order to live our lives the way we want.
It's not just a simple process where I can move up there once we are married, and start looking for a job. No, no, that would almost be too simple and the government couldn't suck out the extra money from our pockets. The truth is, if I didn't have to work, I would have made the big move months ago! Guess I better start playing the lottery then

Anyhoo... That's all I have to share for now...I'll come back with the Wedding Update.

Some WoW with a nudge to happy days.

millions of blogs out there

You may be poor blunked, but you can start a trillion blogs.. there are so many out there, many of them completely free, so you can make tons of sites for different purposes and link them all against each other or, you find "the perfect" blog system, where you can have all your needs represented on one page, wich i would prefer...

soooo.. i´d say, there are quite some possible moves ;)

like.. i just made this one up, all free too, comes directly with calender and such and you should be able to make categories:

good luck vix !!!!!

Train hard...

...fight easy!

Had some more time over so I felt that I should give you some info about the company I'm working at.
It's a part of the SAAB Group (http://www.saabgroup.com) and as you might know they focus mainly on the defence industry, the part where I'm working is called SAAB Training Systems (http://www.saabgroup.com/en/ProductsServices/BusinessUnit/saab_training_systems.htm) and they manufacture laser combat simulation equipment for military and law enforcement use.

The whole system, that costs a shitload, can handle up to 1500 players at a time, ppl or vehicles...

Each unit is prepped with a reciver (for the soldiers it's a vest and "halo") that has built in sound. When a soldier is hit, the vest starts to beep and he's "dead".
Every weapon is prepped with a sender that reacts to firing of blanks... so you use your own weapon and fire it like normal, but you score hits with harmless laser.
Add to that a GPS tracking of each player, gear to transfer the effect of indirect fire in to houses where soldiers hide and... a medical simulation (a soldier gets hit, if the medic manage to stabilise him in time he doesn't die), a gasmask that feels when you breath trough it, so if gas is on the battlefield and you don't manage to put the mask on fast enough ----> you're out.
Handgrenade sims, mine sims.... what not, that all works with laser and calculates the effect on the soldiers.
On top of that... a realtime surveillance and a after combat presentation on video, where you can see who "died" and when, who shot who and what each player did every second of the "play"...
It's paintball for grown ups, or as I say... The difference between boys and men is the price on their toys.

I've used some off this gear, live so to say, in the army and I can tell you that it's as close as you wanna be to the real shit.
So... when I walked in to the R&D Dep on my first tour and saw what they had to "play" with, I swear, I started sweating... It's bleeding amazing really.

So, some info, to start with... I can recommend their webpage, they have some good info there.

"What does this thing do? No, don't touch t....."

Hi there!
Great that you got your stuff together m8, gratz on the SS-card, now all ya need is a job and start bringing in some bread to the house. I'm happy for ya.

School is going well, had my first 2 exams and know that I did very good in one and hopefully past in the other. Besides that I'm out on my first intern period at SAAB Training Systems... kinda fun but wth... a intern doesn't do all that much really.
My project is to update their supplier database, just a nudge over 3000 companies I have to gather new info about. It pretty much handles itself after the initial workeffort.
But their products are right up my alley, training gear for soldiers... sorta like paintball but with lasers.... and way more costly. Everything from firearms to tanks... guns, GPS... maps... anti-tank rifles... (ooooh drooling) I'm like a kid in a huge toyshop where everything is free!!!!
This is Disneyland for wicked ppl like me.

On top of that everything is ok in my life, as you might know I had some computer probs and couldn't play PE, that is fixed now but then I had some probs with the mouse scrollwheel instead, ingame it took forever to swap between 1st and 3rd pow. Turns out that it was the mouse software that needed some fixing, that's done now. You can say what you want about MS but they sure as hell got what you need on their webpage, as long as you know what you need. LOL
So it looks like I'm gonna be able to enjoy the game to the max again. :-)
On the other game, WoW that is (no, stop cursing now Blunk!), it's been going very well, my goal is to reach lvl 68 (at least) before nov 13 when the expasion WoTLK is released. Belive me, the world will grind to a halt on that day... 9 million accounts worldwide and we're all waiting for this.
Here you can follow my progress http://eu.wowarmory.com/character-sheet.xml?r=Shadowsong&n=Oskarsson
At lvl 64 of 70 now, when WoTLK comes you can go up to lvl 80 and they added a whole new continent and a new class named "Death knight" (doesn't it sound interesting? Eeeh?)
Here you can see a teaser movie about the expansion http://www.wow-europe.com/wrath/intro.xml

Ok ppl, I got to get back to work now, hope you're all doing good and that excellence fills your lifes.

Blunked... good going m8, miss ya in PE.
Vix... love ya and I know that James will make you a happy camper. :-)
Jaco... just keep up what you do best, being Jaco that is.
