I mostly see them when they come to raid our snack machine cause it has better shit than theirs but they way the walk through with their noses in the air and the "elitist prick" aroma that follows them it tends to get on my nerves... meh maybe one day they will realize that what they write wouldn't even see the light of day if it weren't for us and they'll come crawling back to us begging to do our job... either that or they will hire a bunch of low lives with no self respect and maybe even get away with paying them less ( if it's possible) ... yeah I'm guessing they will take the latter route.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt; G'day&lt;br/&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;p class='poweredbyperformancing'&gt;Powered by &lt;a href='http://scribefire.com/'&gt;ScribeFire&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/22523086-5498085253274407674?l=thealphafiles.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://thealphafiles.blogspot.com/feeds/5498085253274407674/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=22523086&amp;postID=5498085253274407674&amp;isPopup=true' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/22523086/posts/default/5498085253274407674'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/22523086/posts/default/5498085253274407674'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://thealphafiles.blogspot.com/2008/02/joys-of-working-at-newspaper-abandon.html' title='the joys of working at a newspaper /abandon all hope ye who click this link'/><author><name>Ben Alpha</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/03907145987723714811</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='32' src='http://www.dodedans.com/Images/b.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22523086.post-3070944895769939822</id><published>2007-05-05T19:26:00.000-06:00</published><updated>2007-05-05T19:28:42.403-06:00</updated><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>&lt;span style="font-size:180%;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: georgia;"&gt;Ben &amp;amp; Laura &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_0"&gt;Fosgate&lt;/span&gt; May 5, 2007&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;It's been a long time coming and everyone that knew them, knew this day would come.&lt;br /&gt;May they have a long healthy life.

All of which were talking at 100 miles an hour, they all stop talking and then feast their eyes upon me. I say to myself "dear God please don't say what I think you're gonna' say." Sure enough without skipping a beat they utter the words from their mouths in unison "We need a box..." At wich point my inner child breaks down into the fetile position and starts whimpering. "Ok" I said. "about what size do you think you need?" "well" she said. And then I see her hands start to move upwards (here we go again.) "About this big" she replied making a gesture with her hands. Things went fine until they started babbling about what the size of the third box was. Luckily for me we were back by the stereo, and some kind of celtic music was coming out of the speakers. All of the sudden I look around, and I'm on a moonlit beach. (I'm not lying to you I went to this place in my mind.) I was there for what seemed like hours, when I hear a distant voice "Sir?" I look around and there is no one on this beach, but me.&lt;br /&gt;Then I look around again, and I'm at work. Needless to say I killed Everyone not only in the building, but the whole park-n-shop! Also needless to say...&lt;br /&gt;I get today off!

This person has no clue as to what they're doing with a my space account.&lt;br /&gt;Let me paint a word picture for you... It starts with a really crappy picture of the person, then you have a poorly generated background that is pretty much all black... a flaming rose wow. More like a flaming homo! Then they don't even have the text set to a different color other than black. So in conclusion you have the abillity to see a pixilated picture, a burning flower, and whats that? It looks like some text, but I can't read it because it's the same color as your background!!!&lt;br /&gt;People like this should be Exiled from my space... I GOT IT!

I mean sure you can talk to friends, post pictures, meet friends and all that good stuff... IF YOU CAN EVER GET IT TO WORK!!!&lt;br /&gt;I mean what other website do you know of that suffers as many problems as My Space?&lt;br /&gt;Anyone? Come on I am waiting. Thats what I thought NONE!&lt;br /&gt;It's pretty sweet when it works I'll give them that, but for me it only works about 1 out of 7 times I try to log on. Not to mention the fact that they have no marketing skills so they have to put crappy advertisements of slutty girls who are "In your area now!" What a load of crap that is! My Space's ads lock up computers and submit tracking cookies on to your computer.&lt;br /&gt;And it's all thanks to that jack-ass guy named "Tom" who lacks the Perseverance to keep websites "ad free" All he has to do is sell some clothing, stickers, Or how about a pro edition?&lt;br /&gt;Hell I don't care if it's pluch dolls, there are plenty of people ou there who have too much money for their own good who would buy this stuff.

It has it's ups and it's downs." I thought about this one for a while and came up with a better rendition to this phrase. "Life is like a rollercoaster yeah it has it's ups and downs, but you don't mind because it's fun at first. Then you stop and look around and say 'what the hell!? I'm going around in circles! This sucks!'"&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Verdana;"&gt;I think this sparked the phrase "S.S.D.D." &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Verdana;"&gt;Which brings me to my next question. Who built this ride and how do I get off?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Verdana;"&gt;I don't know, but I think I have developed a hate for amusement parks.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Verdana;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Verdana;"&gt;CURSE YOU SILVERWOOD YOU WILL NEVER GET MY MONEY!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Verdana;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Verdana;"&gt;Alpha.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/22523086-114193644816952583?l=thealphafiles.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://thealphafiles.blogspot.com/feeds/114193644816952583/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=22523086&amp;postID=114193644816952583&amp;isPopup=true' title='4 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/22523086/posts/default/114193644816952583'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/22523086/posts/default/114193644816952583'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://thealphafiles.blogspot.com/2006/03/rollercoaster-of-life.html' title=''/><author><name>Ben Alpha</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/03907145987723714811</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='32' src='http://www.dodedans.com/Images/b.gif'/></author><thr:total>4</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22523086.post-114175135792505499</id><published>2006-03-07T09:58:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2006-03-07T10:10:54.906-07:00</updated><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:georgia;font-size:130%;"&gt;Seeing Things From The Other Side Of The Counter.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;So I am at work yesterday, and the phone rings.

We are still working on audio clips and doing some toons (subject to change on the toons part.) We aren't sure if we want to keep the name we had before our singer and one of the drummers left last summer, as we have kind of gone a different way with our style. The name is A.D.D. which is short for aspire to die daily. I personally am not to big on that one Our studio Tech thinks it's good. We have not reached a final conclusion. Things should go quick as soon as we do.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:verdana;"&gt;We aren't sure if we can pu the toons on here we haven't seen it been done before. so untill then.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:verdana;"&gt;...uh...

God gives us free will." Really?&lt;br /&gt;so how about this. If God knows even the numbers of the hairs on our head. Then he must be able to see into the future, right? So if he can see into the future then he knows the decisions we are going to make. If he knows how we will react to a situation then how do we have "free will"&lt;br /&gt;most people comment on that with "well he doesn't make the chioce for you." No he doesn't, but when he knows what we are going to do, it does not give us the ability to change our mind. Because then we will have pulled a fast one on God, and as you all know that is not possible.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I guess I am throwing this out there hoping for sombody to proove me wrong but no one I know has convinced me yet. The most common response is: "Some things just can't be explained. You should just drop the subject." and I have done just that...until now because I mus t admit it still bugs me sometimes.&lt;br /&gt;I might post a rant later.&lt;br /&gt;Alpha.&lt;br /&gt;Okay here is the rant I just got a phone call (I'm at work by the way.) From some guy, I answered the phone by stating the name of the company,then my name, and threw in a "how may I help you?" just because I am a nice guy. His question threw me off though he asked me if we were open. Uhh.. no I mean is this a trick question or or you that stupid? "No I'm just here because I sleep under my desk (of which I have none.) and uh eatin' some twinkies, So if you want to come down and share a few with me I guess I don't mind...Some people.&lt;br /&gt;I used to work at a fast food/family resturaunt a couple of years ago, and I got this call from some guy (probably the same one) who asked me if we sell "Hot Food"...as opposed to?&lt;br /&gt;"No this is a B.Y.O.M. resturaunt. (bring your own microwave) what a jackass. I swear theese people just sit around thinking up creul ways to insult the working class, while they sit o the crop of our hard work because they are on welfare and have nothing better to do.&lt;br /&gt;maybe I should start doing that, because hey! It's okay to be somebody else (look at the comments on the post were I talk about T-shirts from wall-mart.)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Another thing. Whats with all the gothic people "All is for naught, the only thing certain in life is death, and oh how my soul longs for the grave." shut the hell up. You have not even come close to seeing the worst this world has to offer. The thing of it is, is that theese kids are some rich senators kids who have more than they deserve so to repay their debt to society they become goth. Then they start posting their crappy depressing poetry on some forum. and everyone loves it. All of them are so intoxicated with the fascination of being depressed.&lt;br /&gt;their comments on life are like fingernails in a chalkboard. "My soul mourns and long. for the day when I will be no more." and stupid crap like that. You know what buddy so does mine, how much longer do I have to listen to this? Ok you know what wipe that black nail polish and white make up off of your face (and hands.) and shut up for one second and listen to the birds chirp, or the bubbling brook. That in it's self is something not to be depressed about. and I don't want to here "Yeah well, everything tends toward disorder. Those bird are weeping because they know they don't have long bef-"&lt;br /&gt;You are a dumb ass quit hiding behind your fake curtain and call a spade a spade. Yeah I'll admit this life can be a pretty hard place to live in, but that is no reason to hide behind a false identity.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;And for all of you who are not gothic, and sitting there nodding your head like a judgemental asshole... you are no better thats right we all hide behind something at one point in time it might be working out, eating junk food, locking yourself up in your room, acting like a tough guy,you could even be like that free-thinker guy who hides behind "being some one else" Then there is me I hide Behind sarcasim and smart assy jokes when I am out of my comfort zone. So the moral of this story is...um...quit overamping the crappy things that happen in this life and be happy that you are more than most things o this earth... for instance a French person.&lt;br /&gt;Alpha.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/22523086-114089630234605331?l=thealphafiles.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://thealphafiles.blogspot.com/feeds/114089630234605331/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=22523086&amp;postID=114089630234605331&amp;isPopup=true' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/22523086/posts/default/114089630234605331'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/22523086/posts/default/114089630234605331'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://thealphafiles.blogspot.com/2006/02/pre-destionation.html' title=''/><author><name>Ben Alpha</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/03907145987723714811</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='32' src='http://www.dodedans.com/Images/b.gif'/></author><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22523086.post-114089112117773512</id><published>2006-02-25T11:03:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2006-02-25T11:12:01.183-07:00</updated><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>&lt;span style="font-size:180%;"&gt;Zelda!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This is going back to one of my previous posts.

But, the old school-ness of it is pretty cool.&lt;br /&gt;          On another note; I got a bunch of old snes-roms like, the old Final Fantasy games except for one problem. They are in Japanese that sucks.

This guy is one of my bestest friends ever, but the thing of it is, is that he is kind of lazy (or it's because he can't get on the computer at home because of family members.) about posting on his blog.

I replied "ok go ahead and bring it in." So the guy brings it in with some brown paper, then proceeds by wrapping the box in the paper. I told him UPS does not want packages wrapped in paper because the labels get torn off in transit. He replied "Oh bullshit. It's just as good as a box." At this point I said nothing,waited untill he was done wrapping it. Then with my pinky finger I said "Observe."&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:verdana;font-size:130%;"&gt;I ripped off all the brown paper with my pinky finger trying to show this moron that it was quite simple to do so. He was livid. I said "did you see how easy that was?" He said nothing but, "you just lost a costomer!" I calmly replied "you were just going to drop this off and not spend any money, so how does that make you a customer? Oh and by the way UPS is only open from 4:30 to 6:30."&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:verdana;font-size:130%;"&gt;Then he stormed off never to be seen again. (Thank God.) People like that really piss me off. Dude I do this stuff every day, which really only prooves that I need to get a life, but I should at least get the benefit of the doubt that I know what I'm doing.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:verdana;font-size:130%;"&gt;That would be like having Albert Einstein's weed trimmer come up to him in his study and say "Uh...

Well, to be quite frank almost all the new Christian bands sound alike. Made up of three to four guys with the same boring chord progs. and the same crappy vocal harmony. I have found myself wondering why there anren't any Christian groups who do sweet prog rock or jazz. The answer always leads to: Well, that is because most christian bands don't do drugs before they start writing/composing. I have decided to commit to play better music without "chemical help".&lt;br /&gt;&lt;em&gt;I know you are out there Omega. Would you agree? (Oh wait.

That would suck. Poor Mario &amp;amp; Luigi. Think about it... that really wouldn't be fun. Imagine going out for a walk, when a gust of wind kicks up and you end up in Venice. (Or some other random place.) Which brings me to my next point. I work in a place that sells and builds boxes. People come in all the time with the wrong dimensions, or openly admit that they don't have clue. Those kind of people don't bother me at all. Its the jack-ass that comes in and thinks he knows what he is doing,"I need a box" ok here it comes...yup he pulls out a piece of paper. "The dimensions are 20 X 20" and then proceeds by giving me this expecting blank stare.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;Of course in my mind I reply with "hold on Mega Man, let me go get you a piece of cardboard."&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;When really I say "Well, what is the third dimension?" ...Another long blank stare. "Well I never really thought about that." Thank you captain obvious. Thus we enbark on a long drawn out non-hepful description on what is going in the box,who it came from, where it came from, who's nephew it's going to, and how the person got the item. Then the end result after 20 minutes of discussion the person says "You know it's out in my car, why don't i just grab it?" &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;Then I enbark on the adventure of finding my "&lt;em&gt;Happy Place.&lt;/em&gt;" In that place I am Master Chief a (3-D character) in the Mushroom Kingdom (a 2-D village) blowing everything in sight up on a rampage of destruction on everything two-dimensional.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;Think about that one people.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;Alpha&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/22523086-114047846212104783?l=thealphafiles.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://thealphafiles.blogspot.com/feeds/114047846212104783/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=22523086&amp;postID=114047846212104783&amp;isPopup=true' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/22523086/posts/default/114047846212104783'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/22523086/posts/default/114047846212104783'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://thealphafiles.blogspot.com/2006/02/living-in-8-bit-two-demensional-world.html' title=''/><author><name>Ben Alpha</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/03907145987723714811</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='32' src='http://www.dodedans.com/Images/b.gif'/></author><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22523086.post-114047232979304951</id><published>2006-02-20T14:45:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2006-02-20T14:52:09.793-07:00</updated><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>&lt;span style="font-family:lucida grande;"&gt;My deepest apologies.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:lucida grande;"&gt;I have no rant for you today.

Their will be a black Suburban with tinted windows pull up. They will put a bag over your head. DON'T BE ALARMED!!! Just do as they say.Everything will be fine.

So I'm Doing some research on the U.S. version of FF7 and very much to my dismay I read an unconfirmed rumor that two very untalented actresess are doing some voice acting.
