[kj] OT: Serendipity

[Brendan]

After 20+ years of relentless worship, admittedly heading down some blind
alleys (WASP, Danzig...), but perservering and eventually ending up at the
holy grail (Soundgarden, Tool and Killing Joke), the God of Metal FINALLY
decides to take an active interest in this humble and loyal acolyte...(may
have been some delay in processing the disconnect from the previous deity
and signing me up to the new one I suppose...)

Decided to do a good deed and lend my sponge little brother money for a
ticket to the Foo Fighters tonight. Got one from the local ebay
equivalent, met the seller in person to pick it up and it's the hottie
from the building next door to my work, who I have a crush on. Auckland's
population is over a million so technically it's a one in a million chance
(he said exaggeratingly).

I gave her a hand with her car last week, unscrewed some cap thing on some
coolant thing that wasn't unscrewing and pretended I knew what I was
doing...(it was empty, I take it that was a bad thing and the reason why
her car was overheating, beyond that, dunno :). Meeting up for drinks
tonight and sitting next to her *grin*

I will be sacrificing a Rod Stewart fan at the next opportunity, in homage
to the God of Metal, and if it works out I may very change my name to
Brian Maiden.
