Down, much to my relief

The Christian Depression Pages message boards are down.  Officially for maintenance, phpBB 2.0 hasn't been released yet, and one user threatened to sue another user.  Come on people, it's only a message board!  So, at long last, Paul, Lara, Olof and I don't

License plates and other animals

Now this is fun, you can make your own license plate.  These are mine: "TARDIS" (Time And Relative Dimensions In Space, which is a registered trademark of the BBC) is for the Mazda Tribute, it's massive when you put the back seats down.  Bigger on the

And so it begins...

Make that two suicide threats, one accusation of being a power mad, unspiritual bitch, plus multiple accusations of being a cold, callous, tyrant.  Marvelous. Where in the dictionary does it say that "reconcile" means "Give me my own way NOW, lie down and be trampled on forevermore,

Going down

Start the clock, the Christian Depression Pages message boards go down March 15th.  Woohoo!  Already had one suicide threat and one accusation of being a power mad unspiritual bitch, but what the hell, you knew that already.  You didn't?  Good heavens, maybe it's not actually true.

Hashtable, Vector, Plastic Penguin

Staring at the screen wondering what on earth to do with my Hashtable is not a productive way to code.  Especially when I really need a Vector, not a Hashtable.  Lots of tedious database code to write for Chronicle. On the plus side, I'm programming a whole lot

Weather and Web Development

1:30 pm it started raining, which turned to sleet.  It's still coming down.  Yesterday it was warm enough to be outside in a t-shirt.  Tomorrow it's supposed to be below freezing all day. Applied for more jobs today, including a nice web development place
