Today (last night, actually), I got seriously raped by some hot grease at work.
I have 2nd degree burns covering a good 25% of the top of my right hand and going up my right arm.
It was/is an excruciatingly painful injury, but far from the worst pain I've felt.
I'll not be going to work today, that's for sure.
Also, I'll be asking to be given a different job when I come back for a while/permanently. I'm tired of being pwn3d by hot grease nearly every day, and this is the anvil that really destroyed the entire camel...let alone breaking it's back.
I've applied for a job elsewhere, as well. Better pay, fewer hazards. Can't go wrong with that combo.

Today is my anniversary with my fiance. 3 years ago today we had our first date.I must say it's been a good three years.

As you can see (via my nice MS Paint writing) the new fan is 80 by 25 millimetres. You can also see that it is mounted on top. I think little metal thing is a real nice touch, don't you?

The old fan was in the back. It was 40 by 10 millimetres. Far inferior to the monster that's on there now. I taped over the hole since the new fan is near the back, that way any air coming into the case will have to rush by the hard drive before being blown out. Clever, eh?

Here I show that I've taken the front cover off. This provides exponentially greater air flow. If you look closely at the bottom of the case, you can see the pin prick size holes that the air used to flow through.

All in all, it was a pain in the butt and a considerable amount of labour (before my friend lent me his dremmel that is), but I'm quite proud of it. And my hard drive now runs VERY cool.
