I got a new job at YouthOutlook as the WebMaster for their website.
I’ll be doing mostly content updates in the beginning, taking the load off of the other staff members, and as I get a hang of the system, I imagine I will take on more responsibility.
I am really excited about working here since I’ll be helping to produce a website that actually matters to people – as opposed to something evil.
An old abandoned building across the street from my apartment. It’s got some greate grime on it – and the moss is flourishing.
MS is so awesome! Check this out, the long time hated FrontPage is getting an overhaul and is going to "clean up it's code"...they may want to learn HTML first though - or maybe that was the problem in the first palce?
Check out line 28...
L - O - L !
This sea gull just looked too cool. I really like the gull, the water, and the little yellow chain that keeps the bums outta their bath tub.
The gold work on this building is so incredibly ornate and grand. That and I like the giant light post being just as tall as the building.
Some neat shots of light taken while on the bus home from Santa Rosa.
Well, the MyDoom virus seems to have passed and gone on. Meaning, I no longer am getting more virus email than spam. Back to the spam, yay!
Anywho, SCO.com was the target of the virus and it was taken out of commision for a good deal of the day, and when it came back up I took a moment to check out their site - since I never had before. I would like to point out a few key things about their site:
This is the image on their front page - quite dominant.
Here's the problem with what I am seeing.
1) They are warning people about the virus, but the computer they featured in that image is a Macintosh iBook. The MyDoom virus *can not* infect a macintosh, so it's a rather funny picture in that aspect.
2) The other funny part of this image is the right hand part of the image and the slogan. "Power of Unix". This is their thing - they own certain parts of unix and that's their business. They are also suing an entire industry for licensing rights over intelectual property. Anyway, it's funny because the power of unix in the left hand side of the drawing isn't their unix - it's the Macintosh unix. Hrm....
Where better to take your awesome saturn (with it’s phatty racing stripes) than to an awesome restaurant!
One of the first in a series I am going to be working on.
Aparently I was not the only one bored by President Bush during his speech. Check out this guy playing a GameBoy while attending.
Also take note thoe other people watching him. Woman behind him, guy behind her, and the other guy two people to the right.
This weekends project (one of two):
Travis found a neat magnetic poetry java applet online, but was disapointed by the fact that it would not save the order of his fantastic work. So I went ahead and created one that would not only save his work, but would also save the work of everyone else.
Some of it's crazy features:
That last item is the kicker. Since the magnet's come from a shared XML file, what you create, everyone else will see. :-)
I was walking to school today and something hit me.
I usually walk looking down at the ground. It helps me to not run into things, but I can still see a little ways forward so I don't hit any oncoming persons.
I take my camera with me everywhere I go now. It's the real reason I wanted it. I see things all the time that just make me say, "I wish i had a camera right now".
Now I walk around looking ahead all the time. I don't want to miss a picture opportunity. But that one came back to bite me in the butt. I walking along looking up, and as I was focusing on something particular, I kicked over a can of yogut and got it all over my shoe.
Hrm...
Looking ahead with yogut on my shoe. :-/
So, I went ahead and played with my camera some more. Anyone who plays Ragnarok online will know that *this* is the ultimate item to get ;-)
:D
Anywho, it's a toy corvette car i found outside so I took some close ups and put images behind it till one of them sorta fit....hehe!
Got a big smile out of this one for a few blocks or so.
I just looked up to discover the library lights had a sense of fashion....a bad one, but one none the less.
^.^
We spent most of our time in Idaho relaxing, and more importantly, keeping warm. It was (on average) about 4degrees while we were there.
On the flip side it was really nice to be somewhere isolated like that, snow is fun to play in, and it was good to get away.
