Luciferion movie sample

We just watched a pretty crappy movie called "Xtro II: The second encounter". The reason why I'm posting about it is because of the movie's ending music. I immediately recognized it as the ending music of "The Voyager" song on the "Demonication (The Manifest)" album by Luciferion. Until now I always thought the sample was taken from "The Exorcist III". In fact, another Luciferion song from the same album does indeed contain the John Donne quote from the movie.

It's funny how you can run into these obscure movie samples that metal bands often use. The "Demonication (The Manifest)" album originally came out in 1994 so it only took me 17 years to find the movie sample!
I will check the CD booklet next week when we visit my parents again. I know for sure that the band listed a bunch of movies that have inspired them in making that album. Curious to see if "Xtro II" is also listed...

Came across the new Septic Flesh album and it's great as expected. Ordered it with a bunch of other good CDs from Amazon. Should be here around Easter I think.

I'm also still waiting for my Tim Tams order which should arrive any day now.

Going to play football/soccer with some colleagues at 6pm today. Haven't played since June 2009 so muscle ache will be inevitable. Let's see if my body will be in a decent enough shape to go swimming tomorrow :)

work laptop

After 6 months my work laptop finally arrived :)
It's one of the charms living and working in Portugal haha.
I'm now in the process of installing Windows 7 OS on the new MacBook Pro. I know, sacrilege to some but I'll keep the Mac OS on it as well. Then I'll install all programs and transfer data and files.
Good times!

Asnida will soon be able to use this old MacBook Pro at home and email, browse the internet and update her facebook whenever she wants to.

Asnida arrived on time last night, picked her up and thanks to my nagivation system we didn't get lost on the way back home.
We're off to explore the city center now :)

Asnida arrived in Lisbon with a half hour delay but when she didn't reply to my txt message I called her. Turns out she couldn't reply to my txt and was sleeping at the airport lol.
Let's hope she won't oversleep and miss her flight to Funchal! :)
Ok, Asnida is now en route to Lisbon, should arrive in 1 hour and 20 minutes. Then she has to check in again for the 3rd and final flight to Funchal. I hope she won't have to collect and re-check in her luggage...
She'll arrive here in 7 hours and 15 minutes :)
Asnida arrived in A-dam a few hours ago. Now she has to wait 3 more hours before her connecting flight to Lisbon takes off. But she's finished 16 hours of the travel now, in about 12 hours she'll be here in Funchal :)

Just got a txt message from Asnida saying she boarded the plane in  Kuala Lumpur. Her ETA in Amsterdam is around 6am local time, which is 5am my time.
Then she'll have to wait 6 hours before her next flight will take her to Lisbon.
Asnida will be here in about 36 hours from now (8:41am). Tomorrow night finally :)
