I’ve been trying to learn

I’ve been trying to learn more about web design so I’m not too much of a one-trick pony with my little simple square websites. I’m working on a site for one of my co-workers at fedex who runs a small helium business on the side. Right now it looks like crap, but I’m trying to squirrel away some time when I can get down to work on it.

My car has been acting naughty again so I’m having to bum rides from everyone I know. Some days don’t you just wish you were pure thought so you could evade the nuisance of space-time?

We’ve just finished moving to

We’ve just finished moving to our new apartment. I don’t think I ever want to move again. Moving has got to be the most vile activity known to man. It took us nearly a week to get the entire transition completed. The unexpected benefit is that when you finally get the old residence cleaned up and empty you don’t want to ever see it again.

Mtv ‘Cribs’ is strangely fascinating. Some celebrities have extremely poor taste. It’s surreal looking into Snoop Dogg’s pantry. As it turns out, he’s also a fan of Ding-Dongs.

At my graduation party Galadriel

At my graduation party Galadriel gave me a copy of the I Ching, the Book of Changes. In the back of my head of been thinking about the I Ching ever since I had a class on the classic 18th century Chinese novel, The Dream of the Red Chamber. (It was an entire course because The Dream of the Red Chamber is five volumes long.) At the end of the semester, our professor, Dr. Faurot, showed us how to cast three coins to generate the trigrams that are used in the consultation of the I Ching. In this way you can cast your own sort of horoscope.

It’s not really to predict events but rather to ask advice if you are in need of answers. It’s strange because I had developed an interest in Chinese culture and encountered the I Ching, and then I started reading Philip K. Dick and in his book The Man in the High Castle the I Ching is a prominent plot device. It just seems so strangely coincidental. I’m gonna try to mess with it a little bit and see what happens. I could definitely use some advice right now.

man oh man…it’s way late.

man oh man…it’s way late. I got everything taken care of with the new host. I read a neat comic today on the web today. It reminds me of stuff I used to really enjoy about comics. Actually, a lot of the comics at this site are worth reading. There was another good comic there which used the themes and ideas of Jainism. Some of these strips remind me of Jack Chick comics. I wonder if that’s intentional? They often have a serious and heavy mood like Chick comics. Of course, I find these way more palatable since since they’re not insane. I also came across a site that had some cool stickers and t-shirts for sale. The guy is even giving away “Fuck Work” stickers. His goal is to give away 5 million of them. Now that’s a cause I can support!

Adding a page for a webcam. I didn’t actually add this page back on this date, but I didn’t want it to show up on the front page. You can see older webcam images here.

tonight i added a script

tonight i added a script to the site that presents dates in erisian format which i think is pretty neat. for more on this do a search on discordianism. i also added a fake counter which i made the buttons for….very soon i will be adding some more stuff to the site. i will update the links page and i may decide to organize the site a bit differently while keeping the same look. this will involve making a few new buttons i think…anyway, lemme know if you came by to see me on irc because i keep getting dropped. hum. hum. well, i’m tired and it’s late. i may try to get someone to help me with updating material for the site because i’m going to need to get some structural things done. oh, i also submitted our url to a number of search engines..i used a neat free service called addme.com…so far i like it.
