Walker: Total Norris

Today was an interesting day at work. Everything was tidier than ever (due to the huge cleanup over the last day or so) and it was our store manager's second to last day - so those of us that work Mon-Fri had our last shift with him. Apparently tomorrow night there are going to be some drinks at closing time so I will go simply to show that I can be sociable - and I guess to show my appreciation for his store managerness. Or something.

My fingers are really sore. Not sure what is causing it but it makes typing quite hard. They only seem to have got worse over these past few days. Maybe it's some new sort of disease. Whatever it is, it's very painful and I hope that it disappears as soon as possible.

So... time for some Chuck Norris facts!

"Chuck Norris makes beef jerky by roundhouse kicking cows so hard that moisture leaves their bodies."

"Hurricane Katrina was just Chuck Norris sparring with Thor. Chuck won."

"Chuck Norris has not killed more people than heart attacks yet, but that's only because heart attacks don't do charity work on the side."

"Chuck Norris does not have to mow his lawn. He simply stares at the grass and dares it to grow."

"Chuck Norris can no longer see himself in the mirror because the first time he did, he killed his own reflection."

And one more...

"Chuck Norris has two speeds: kill and kill more."


I tried getting hold of some hiragana lessons to practise writing it but it takes a lot of boring repetition to do something like that. I need to find a more memorable and exciting way to learn to read and write Japanese. Maybe that game that Nick found once...? There was this Japanese RPG (pretty lame, but meh) and it taught you hiragana and katakana. Pity it didn't sink in. I guess you have to keep plugging at it and study daily or something. I found 한글 (Korean) pretty straight forward to learn to read and write, but maybe that's because there are only 24 characters to remember. Japanese is too overwhelming /sigh

Onto the weekend!
