In nomine Patris, et Filii, et Spiritus Sanctus. Amen.

Twenty-Fifth Day of the Eighth Month, the Year of the Lord 2002

Tagline of the day:
"It all started with his Les Pauls', then one day, his flat and everything in it..."

The story starts on Friday night, when the Sonic Boss and Genshi decided to shop for computer parts. They walked around for about half an hour and decided, over a bottle of root beer (as recommended by Shai and Mineral earlier at St. Andrew's Cathedral), that they would pick out a SGD 500+ DIY set-up instead of picking a few pieces of computer parts. Because of the Sonic Boss' lack of knowledge in all areas, especially in computer hardware, Genshi had been commissioned to put the new computer together. Things were not so smooth and IDE connection problems keep coming up. The problem was not to be easily solved and definitely not the same night anyway. And so, the Sonic Boss extends an invitation to Genshi to come over the following day (and, inevitably, night) to fix the problem, being better equiped.

The Donut Boy and Keith Elliot were also staying over. Since the Sonic Boss and his love, Sueme, was in JB for some marriage workshop, Genshi, the Donut Boy and Keith Elliot had the whole flat by ourselves. Genshi said as he welcomes the other two in, "Welcome to my humble abode. The boss had sold me his flat. First, it started with his Les Pauls, now his home." All three who were there busied themselves with dinner, making fun of some possum, and thinking of slack/lame things to leave behind in the Sonic Boss' house. Things still weren't working out with the boss' computer.

Soon, hearing all the fun they were having over the crude jokes only guys make, Mineral and Brommy decided to join us. All of them enjoyed a few rounds of Contra and Duck hunt before settling down to watch Darth Vader cutting off Luke Skywalker's hand.

"*heavy breathing* Luke, I am your... MOTHER."

After finishing a tub of Haagen Daaz's Coffee ice cream, the first of three tubs, Mineral and Brommy left. Genshi goes back to work on computer but to no avail. (By this time, Jason was here.) After finishing Empire Strikes Back, Keith Elliot and the Donut Boy retired. Genshi had no choice but to go back and work on the computer again, having no clue on how to go on from there. The problem did not changed. In fact, a new problem arrived: floppy connection not working! Meanwhile, Jason was playing Metal Slug or some game...

Then, at around 2am on Sunday morning, Genshi decided to pick up this little book called "The New Testament with Psalms & Proverbs" and began to analyse the esoteric meanings to the Letter of St. Paul to the Romans. And as God would have it, Genshi, by mistake, pressed the F1 key and bypassed the floppy problem. The IDE connection problem disappeared. Genshi praised God by dancing without Jason, Keith Elliot's and the Donut Boy's knowledge. And so, even though the floppy drive couldn't get to work, other software could still be installed by CD-ROM. But on that fateful morning, Genshi had once again, witnessed the glory of our Lord Jesus. Hallelujah! Amen!

Morning: Keith Elliot does a damn lame impression fo a ghost to wake Genshi and Jason up. He received two fingers from Genshi. He accepted it without dignity. The whole lot busied themselves in packing the place up, leave lame messages for the Sonic Boss, and preparing to go to church...

Anyway, the rest is history... all glory and honour to the Lord, my God, Jesus Christ, who lives and reigns forever and ever. Amen! I can't be bothered to write anymore!
