[07:01] <Symmetria> I just want a few days where I dont have to deal with pissing rain, its driving me crazy

[07:04] <trender> mornin
[07:05] <Symmetria> morning 
[07:05] <trender> o sign of rain this side
[07:05] <trender> no sign of rain
[07:05] <Symmetria> ;p sorry Im just grumpy, lol, it pissed with rain in Nairobi for a solid week and a half, and I mean, hectic hectic rain
[07:05] <Symmetria> I fly back to east london, and its pissing with rain ever since I got back
[07:06] <Symmetria> and I just checked the weather for the next 2 weeks in Nairobi where Im flying back to in a weeks time, and they got rain forecast for the next 2 weeks 
[07:06] <Symmetria> ;p
[07:06] <trender> east london is like a small dorpie ?
[07:07] <trender> think i was up theare years ago on work
[07:07] <trender> there
[07:07] <Symmetria> heh yeah, small town, but I prefer to live here, means I get a break from the constant traffic, rush and other bullshit I put up with in every other big city I travel to
[07:08] <Symmetria> heh, and since I spend probably less time in town than out of town these days it works out ok :)
[07:08] <trender> yea i prefer that as well
[07:08] <Symmetria> heh got back on friday from a week and a half in .ke, and flying back there in a weeks time
[07:09] <trender> i dont like to travel anymore
[07:09] <trender> time to retire on the plaas
[07:10] <Symmetria> heh I dont mind travelling dependant on where
[07:10] <Symmetria> I have zero desire to travel to the US or Europe 
[07:10] <Symmetria> travelling around africa on the other hand, thats worth doing
[07:10] <trender> eish who does
[07:11] <Symmetria> there are sights and sounds in Africa that are hard to explain to anyoen who hasnt been there
[07:11] <Symmetria> something about standing meters away from a giant silverback who looks at you, then wanders up to you and touches your face that is a little awe inspiring 
[07:12] <trender> yup right before it rips your head off
[07:12] <Symmetria> lol nah, those gorillas are pretty cool with people
[07:14] <trender> try hang on to an apple
[07:14] <trender> im sure it will rip yer arm off to get the fruit
[07:15] <Symmetria> nah, gorillas are highly intelligent creatures actually
[07:15] <Symmetria> you never watched gorillas in the mist?
[07:16] <trender> smat enough to rip yer arm off and beat you with it :)
[07:16] <trender> smart
[07:16] <trender> i just dont trust them
[07:16] <Symmetria> heh there arent that many animals Im truely afraid of
[07:16] <trender> baboons and such in the cape have been known to rip peoples faces off
[07:16] <Symmetria> http://www.alstonnetworks.net/pics/buffalo.JPG <[07:17] <Symmetria> heh trender, baboons are dangerous animals, gorillas are very very different
[07:17] <Symmetria> baboons tend to be *far* more aggressive
[07:17] <Symmetria> heh, that buffalo in that picture, was like, 5 or 6 meters from me 
[07:17] <Symmetria> and he looked kinda pissy ;p
[07:18] <trender> baboons gorrillas...im not gonna get comfy with either
[07:19] <Symmetria> lol, its the same with monkeys, I was at the animal orphanage in nairobi, and there were a bunch of wild monkeys running around, I was hand feeding em peanuts, but I was staying the hell away from the gorillas
[07:19] <Symmetria> lol one of the baby monkeys jumped on my shoulder 
[07:20] <trender> eish big picture huh
[07:20] <trender> takes ages to load
[07:20] <Symmetria> lol, didnt get around to sizing those things down so they are at insane resolution
[07:20] <Symmetria> be glad I didnt put the raw versions on there ;p those ones are only 6meg each, the raw files are 45 meg ;p
[07:21] <trender> yea
[07:21] <Symmetria> lol trender, I actually got myself a new toy yesterday so I can take better pics
[07:21] <Symmetria> check this:
[07:21] <Symmetria> http://www.alstonnetworks.net/presentations/camera.jpg
[07:21] <trender> hrm
[07:22] <trender> hrm ok checking
[07:26] <trender> hrm
[07:26] <trender> is that a disposable camera :) ?
[07:26] <trender> looks like canon
[07:27] <trender> i also have canon but a canon toy i ned to replace
[07:27] <trender> need
[07:28] <trender> bought my canon second hand 6 years back had an optic fault turns out canon recalled and repaired my camera for free ***good service***
[07:29] <trender> was related to a sony optic fault i think
[07:29] <trender> sony parts in a canon camera go figure
[07:30] <Symmetria> heh its a canon
[07:30] <trender> is that a box of instant soup next to the camera Symmetria ??
[07:30] <Symmetria> but it definately isnt disposable ;p
[07:31] <trender> i will definitely buy annother canon
[07:31] <Symmetria> haha empty box ;p my dog dragged it into the room trying to play with it
[07:33] <trender> i wasnt happy with my canons shutter speed, without flash you need a tripod
[07:34] <trender> else you get motion blur
[07:34] <trender> for close object only though like taking a closeup picture
[07:34] <Symmetria> heh lower end canons can do that, though also depends on the lense you're using
[07:35] <Symmetria> trender, this was a hand held picture at full 500mm zoom:
[07:35] <Symmetria> http://www.alstonnetworks.net/pics/doggie2.jpg
[07:35] <Symmetria> from far away :)
[07:35] <trender> im more interested in taking closeups of very small objects
[07:36] <trender> like a 2 rand coin closeup
[07:36] <trender> those tend to blur easily without tripod
[07:38] <trender> eish evil dog with glowing blue eyes
[07:39] <trender> perhaps a little outta focus
[07:40] <trender> ah when you scale down it looks ok
[07:40] <trender> i pose thats the general idea or reason behind them 40meg pictures
[07:40] <trender> spose
[07:41] <trender> rescale those raw images and you get premium quality
[07:41] <Symmetria> lol my doggie isnt evil
[07:41] <Symmetria> she's cute ;p
[07:42] <trender> blue eyes are not normal mate :P
[07:42] <Symmetria> lol she's flying on my bed watching me
[07:42] <trender> beats the red eye thing
[07:42] <Symmetria> lying on my bed I mean
[07:43] <trender> eish those images ahve eaten all my ram lol
[07:43] <trender> ***close some programs before you lose yer work***
[07:44] <trender> well thats a smart looking camera mate
[07:44] <trender> you buy it local or import it ??
[07:46] <Symmetria> heh bought local
[07:46] <Symmetria> brb I need a cig

[07:59] <Cantide> Squirm, it rained again last night... and the sharks lost -.-
[07:59] <Kilos> hi Squirm 
[07:59] <Kilos> ya sad hey Cantide 
[08:00] <Cantide> yeah
[08:00] <Cantide> i think the sharks were unlucky
[08:00] <Cantide> but the Cheetahs did outplay us, they were definitely the better team
[08:00] <Squirm> Cantide: I know they lost. But to be fair, the last try that went to the Cheetahs was al ittle rubbish :P
[08:00] <Squirm> s/al little/a little
[08:00] <Squirm> the ref played no advantage :/
[08:00] <Cantide> yeah
[08:01] <Cantide> but the sharks failed in a number of areas of play
[08:01] <Squirm> but did you see their almost try at the end
[08:01] <Cantide> especially at the breakdown
[08:01] <Cantide> yeah! Paul Jordaan <3
[08:01] <Squirm> hmm, maybe that's why my throat is sore
[08:01] <Cantide> hahaha
[08:03] <Squirm> ah well, all in all it was a good time
[08:05] <Cantide> yeah

[19:58] <Kilos> Maaz: define iffy
[19:58] <Maaz> Kilos: iffy adj 1: subject to accident or chance or change; "a chancy appeal at best"; "getting that job was definitely fluky"; "a fluky wind"; "an iffy proposition" [syn: {chancy}, {fluky}, {flukey}, {iffy}]
