Stevie Kane

A blog for friends… and that’s about it.

Back up and running.

I didn’t know this, but Gerardy updated the website about a week ago and fixed the problem i was having, so now we’re back on.

I’ve been busy (as always) and now i’m about to graduate in a Screenwriting degree and a Filmmaking degree in two weeks or so. I’m not sure i’ll know what to do with all the extra time.

The job is going well. I can be found equally in my cubicle, out in the field, or at court, so every day is different. Which is about as much as i can ask for. “Get your life in!”, right Marty?

How’s everyone else doing. Kids OK?, that sort of thing.

Website under repair.

I have indeed been gone. That’s because I’ve been both busy and found out about a month ago that my website has some low-level, advertisement-type viruses on it.

I doubt you even noticed, but it gets me into trouble if i check in on it at work.

Currently, google tells you that my site might harm your computer.

So, if any one knows how to update wordpress, let me know.

As for Paschal’s masterbatorium, right act, wrong place. I was in Philly last weekend, i was delayed, so whiled away the time with a bloke from Greenbay and arrived drunk.

So, naturally, once Marty had picked me up, i continued drinking. It’s always nice to hang out with yer mate.

By the by, this summer, i arrived in the Twin Cities five years ago, and philly ten years ago.

Weird.

Where are You Stevie?

Just thought I’d ask - if he doesn’t answer please feel free to post your suggestions as to where he could be below - I for one am going with him being tied up in Paschal’s Masterbatorium!

The Incredible Frying, Sorry, Flying Man.

As if you all didn’t know, you actually being on the same island as him, Brian managed to drag his sac-magique over a three-mile stretch in a bloody decent 25 minutes, all in the name of charity.

So, just thought i’d acknowledge it.

Apparently, everyone who did 25 minutes and under was given a small child as a prize.

And we’re off to Dublin in the green, in the green…

Shamrock

Happy St Patrick’s Day, peeps.

If you’re lucky enough to be Irish, you’re lucky enough.

Freeze!

As promised, here’s a picture:

Badge and Cuffs

I think the badge looks like something out of a lucky-bag.

cost forty bucks too.

Bored of Snow.

Sorry i haven’t been in touch lately. I’ve been busy with the new job, which i’ll tell you all about later.

To keep you happy, here’s a picture Marty sent me.

Snow

He says he got his injury sliding down a wet, white pipe.

A New Day

Right then,
I’m back and I’ve just had my first day at my new job. I spent the morning doing paperwork, then followed Shad around. We went to court were i witnessed some kid getting charged with 4th degree burglary, then visited one of Shad’s clients, which coincidently, happens to be the brother of a former client of mine.

Strange.

Anyway, missing you all, already.

My thoughts are with you, Marty.

Snowmobile

In response to my rant about infrastructures and whatnot, Belfast City Council has introduced its newly developed Snow Handling Increase Transport to deal with the recent “arctic conditions”:

Snowmobile 1

Snowmobile 2

Apparently, Don Gregory was involved in the concept design.

Grinding To a Halt.

So much for escaping the wilds of Minnesota…

It’s funny though, cos I told Paschal it was “nothing”, and although it isn’t the “arctic conditions” CityBeat said the electricity workers had to slave through tonight, it has become more substantial over the night, and it’s the fattest, wettest, stickiest snow I’ve seen in a long time.

In truth, it really wouldn’t be that big a deal in Minnesota, but that’s because they have an infrastructure for it, whilst all I saw on the motorway tonight was a stationary plough and a cop van with the message “snow warning” (as if the big white things fluttering down all around weren’t warning enough).

Seems to me it’s not the only infrastructure Belfast is lacking. Ulsterbus, anyone?
