>Sunday Afternoon Trollup

> And here you go:Two-Face the kitten Rap dictionary Disallusioned frat-boy logic strikes again! What a long day. It’s over soon-ish however. I’ve got about an hour and a half to go. Fark has been paroozled, and web pages corrected. I’ve still got some image editing to do for the CGSystems: Security page. It’s still somewhat hard to see the links on the right side. Nicole, Jenn, Matt & I all went out to Olive Garden on Friday night for Nicole’s birthday. She was all excited, and though we weren’t able to catch a movie after like we wanted, it…

>New Music!

>Hey! I’m excited!(don’t you want to know why?) Yes you do! K — I just put all my pepsi co caps in a pile and I’ve got like 15. I’m dispensing with 7 this very evening.I found a new favorite way to browse — iTunes Essentials.It’s got many different catagories, and many different tracks contained there-in. I’ve discovered I’m an Alterna-Pop type guy: I already had 90% of the tracks, and bought a few more out of that category.A few other catagories of note:Alternative Hip-Hop (no gangsta, here… well — most of the time) 😉Comedy (including Steve Martin, Monty Python)Electronica…

>Bitch Session

>This is not for you. Not like anyone reads me anymore anyhow 😉Sure I post some interesting links here and there, but I never set out to do this thing for anyone else other then myself. Having other people read it, and eventually give their insight, was a bonus. I post for my own use, to keep track of the things I come accross… it seems now a days that you have to keep a blog going with constant publicity. Forum postings help, Orkut, various other social interaction. Much like real life. You need to keep in touch with people,…

>Web Presentation Woes

>I’m still trying to figure out what’s going on with the page. I was very disappointed by the appearance of the site in Linux yesterday. I set up Justin’s friend Jason with a Linux computer I had around. His laptop recently died, and he needed a machine to be able to browse the web, etc. It wasn’t a veritable power-house or anything, but it can do the job, minus the broken cd-rom. I took the easy way out (AGAIN!) and used GoLive (same version – old now, 5.0) to do the mouse-overs. I’m going to translate them all back to…

>I spent today lounging around. I’m just getting past this cold thing. Not bad, not quite a week… and was never completely sick, caught it in time. I’m currently watching UFC, waiting for Nicole to get out of class. After that we’re headed to my Dad’s to go play games with my niece Jamie, her boyfriend, and my great-niece Ashlyn will most likely be running around. I just canceled my HBO / Cinemax preview, so it’s either Discovery: America, Surprise by Design on DHDTV, or UFC. So in the interest of not leaving the soft nest of HDTV land, I’m…

>Shakespeare comparison.

> Someone made the observation that the saying “a million monkeys at a million typewriters… shakespeare… yadda yadda yadda” is not very true to life.Change “typewriters” to “keyboards” and you’ve got all the monkeys on the internet. I don’t think anyone’s produced any shakrespeare yet. Hehe, internet people are monkeys. I’m a monkey. oooh ah, ooh ah.I’m going back to sleep now.

>Sound in XP-64!

>I’ve got sound in XP 64… finally! Checked ASUS.com for the driver, been soundless in WinXP64 for long enough, however — nothing.I then checked out Realtek.com and they had a new driver as of 02/05/05! The cutting edge is sharp, but I love being on it 😉

>Funny Lookin?

>If things are looking odd for you click here. (404 removed to /honeybun/ 09/2024) It was the honeycomb update, Todo: restore from Internet archive. I’m in the process of tracking down the exact location of the code that’s causing the warning message that says something about code attempting to exploit your browser, yadda yadda. In case anyone was wondering it’s due to me attempting to post using Outlook. Even in straight HTML mode, whenever I typed a URL it would make it “clickable” resulting in a whole bunch of bogus code throughout. Now I’ve got to weed through it all.…

>Well, I have affirmed that the little scare I had yesterday was unfounded.I stopped into Gap to get a few things, and visit with my previous co-workers. Kate was congradulatory, but had to stick in a bit regarding Travelers being bought by Met Life. She said something about 500 jobs would be lost in the process. It put a large damper on the mood, though Kate normally has a foot in the doldrums. So I just found this article regarding the Met-Life purchase of Traveler’s Insurance, that’s Traveler’s Life — which already spun off of Traveler’s Property about 2 years…

>I have a job.

> Mapping of a cat’s brain. So… I’ve been working here at Travelers for about a month and a half now. I just was offered a job with Application Development. It consists of a little programming, some script editing, but mainly creating software solutions for the company. I shall be in charge of researching various software programs, when we can’t make our own, purchasing those that fit our needs, and adapting them to the company’s existing software solution(s). I’m starting on Monday, while still working the weekends until they find a replacement. I can’t believe it, I’m at a loss…

>Yes Dear
