Long Time - Updates

It has been a long time since Ritty5 has 'blogged', there have been many things that have happened in his life.

Firstly his car's (Daihatsu Charade) timing belt snapped, and because of the wear and tear to the car it wasn't worth keeping. So Ritty5 spent $1200 on a '87 Telstar Ghia with road worthy certificate.

Only 5 days ago Ritty5 resigned from Coles and started working at Harvey Norman. He is really enjoying it and is looking forward to going to work again. The staff he works with are really nice and it is overall relaxed.

A few weeks ago The Ritty5 (http://ritty5.com) website went down due to the server crashing, it only came back up a few days ago. Ritty5 has to work on setting up the website again, so it isn't fully functional. He is also considering changing his website or at least it's content.

For now and hopefully not for too long.

Delays but Great News

Ritty5 is sorry about the delay in posting, he has had a busy weekend and has been busy with both a new gadget and a new site (more on that soon).

Last Thursday Ritty5 went and got a BlueAnt© Supertooth 3 for his mobile. It only cost him AU$100 from an Optus Shop, the unit is an Ex-Dealers but everything looked brand new, even the cables... Some of the main features include:

• Text-to-Speech - Allowing it to read out who is calling
• 8 Languages - Including British and American English
• Voice Dialling (uses phones feature)
• Voice Answering - All you have to say is 'Ok' or 'Pick up' and it will do it for you
• 10 Meter Radius
  
• Automatically Re-connects - If you leave it's range and come back it will automatically re-connect... and if you've been gone for more than 20 seconds, it goes into idle and upon detecting vibration (eg. car door opening) it searches for phones

It is only a small unit and has some advanced noise cancellation and automatic volume control (which Ritty5 is yet to see/hear function). Overall, Ritty5 thinks that this was a steal especially after looking at some of the prices online and around his area.

Ritty5's Grandfather came up to visit over the weekend to spend time with both him and his uncle for his 50th Birthday. It was held on Sunday at his place with his cousin there too. There was chicken, cherios, salad (which he didn't touch) and plenty of fun. There was one point where Ritty5 put cake on his grandfather's face... No-one expected him to do it...
Ritty5 wishes his Uncle a Happy Birthday and Thanks his Grandfather for coming up.

Today Ritty5 had his car in for some more repairs so while sitting around at home all alone he started up a online store to sell some products to help raise awareness of his site and because he simply felt like it...
So now you can help spread the word of The Ritty5 by buying anything from a Mug, to Shirts, even Dog Bowls and 'Yard Signs'... And even a g-string... Lol? Ritty5 is planning on buying some of them because that will also help to spread the word (and he'll probably be the only one unless you buy something...). And just to note, Ritty5 is trying to keep the prices down, so he has only added AU$2 to each item, the rest goes to the company (Cafepress).

And then tonight Ritty5 had bowling again, in the first and last game he scored more than 100 pins and the second game he can't remember. He had a little bit of trouble because he injured himself last night with a trolley after shopping... It's his own stupid fault. He has a grazed knee, elbow and hand, and his other knee really hurts...

Until another time... Ritty5's Conscience.

Celebrations

Ritty5 is celebrating the upgrade of his Licence, he successfully passed the 'Hazard Peseption Test' and is now on his P2 Licence. Before he went down to the transport department he went to RACQ to pick up some free Green P plates so he could drive after upgrading his licence.

In other news, Ritty5 explored and designed custom T-shirts. He put together a basic design that would advertise his website (ritty5.com). If you want to checkout the design, go to CustomYourShirt.com to see what it looks like (on last look, the images of the design aren't there yet, but hopefully they'll appear soon). Even you can buy one and help Ritty5 spread the word about his site. Remember, if you do buy one, to choose it to print on both sides so then it looks cooler and helps to advert more.

A few other things, the hole is getting the final work done today and Ritty5 did not have to work today so he is happy about that. And he also got in contact with the mechanic and it is going to cost $170 to replace the Ball Joint and the arm (has to be together) + labour.

Minor Layout Edit

Ritty5 just changed the layout of comments so that they were more identifiable.

Now he is going to go to bed.

The day of today.

Ritty5 has had a busy day, amongst work, mechanics, bowling and a couple of other things, he's ready to go to bed. He started of with work at 7:30 this morning and didn't finish until 12:30 where he had to go straight to the mechanics to get a sound checked out. Ritty5 then had to rush home to eat, get a hole in the wall fixed and then a patch in the carpet cleaned. Followed by 10-pin bowling league.

Work was... well work, nothing much else to say today other then one of the fridges that he had to help lift for a contractor was heavy. At the mechanics he found out that he has to get the front right wheel ball joint replaced (more details...), the repairs to the car have no known cost as of yet, hopefully Ritty5 will find out tomorrow. And as for the hole in the wall and the carpet, the hole has a little bit of work left to be done and the carpet is clean...

Ritty5 broke 120pins in his first game with 4 Strikes, he's best game yet. And the third game he broke 100pins as well... the second game... yeah, well.

Ritty5 is now off to bed and shall post again in the near future.

Day 2

Day two of posting this blog and Ritty5 has played with the layout a bit more. His next task is to get links on his website to his blog. This is what it looks like at the moment:

It isn't the exact same as his website, but it is very similar. And is identifiable if someone knew either one's basic look.

Not much else to say, so yeah, Ritty5 will post another blog soon, possibly after he updates his site.

Don't forget to comment and/or contact Ritty5.
