You're a better man than I Wasted... my wife threatens to leave me if I attempt renovations or repairs. I actually like pissing around with that sort of thing, but I always manage to fuck things up royally every time...
After having been contacted by Edinburgh about my application again and having a direct comparison between British and German authorities, I noticed how badly I need to get out of this country. It's a completely new experience to me that authorities will approach you and offer support. I'm actually bewildered by the experience that an authority understands itself as an institution that is there to help you. Here, everyone makes sure you know that you are the one asking them for something.
Ha! Well, in this case, its closer to 2K for the siding to be installed (that's just labor); it isn't that hard, just time consuming. The window, I may have exaggerated, but I'd be surprised if I could get it done for less than $500 (american). Again, not complicated, just time consuming to re-hang the gutters, caulk the window, and replace the wood. Meh, I don't mind getting my hands dirty.
In other news, I'm going to install an Exchange 2007 server tonite...
Rugby World Cup 2011 moves into an interesting phase this weekend with the last batch of the round-robin group matches are to be played out. The most likely event is that (barring a lot of miracles - i.e. New Zealand losing to Canada/England been beating by the Scots by more than 7 points/Wales loosing heavily Fiji/Ireland loosing to Italy. Out of that lot, the most likely event is the Scots beating England, but they won't put more than 7 points past England):
Pool A Winners: New Zealand
Pool A Second: France
Pool B Winners: England
Pool B Second: Argentina
Pool C Winners: Ireland
Pool C Second: Australia
Pool D Winners: South Africa
Pool D Second: Wales
This would mean that the quarters will be:
England v France
New Zealand v Argentina
and on the other side of the draw:
Ireland v Wales
South Africa v Australia
As the winners of England/France will play the winners of Ireland/Wales we will be guaranteed a Northern Hemisphere side in the final.
My predictions is that England will beat France, Wales will beat Ireland, New Zealand will beat Argentina and Australia will beat South Africa.
The final will then, I reckon, be played out between Australia and England. A repeat of 2003 and 1991 (hoping that the outcome will be that of 2003).
