the metro

Who designed the advertisements for the Buffalo metro? They look like they were designed by intro to graphic design students of a pre computer era. Only the craptastic dropshadow guves it away. These ones can be found at the Allen Street station.

I am supposed to be at Canisius teaching but the subway is late. One more station to go.

Some man on the subway was telling this long winded story about how all the stars came from buffalo before there was Hollywood. He just kept screaming it at these girls and paul, the other Paul that worked at Kunis and the coop.

Lunch of the Dead

The lunches only get better at Roswell. I just wish I didn't have to listen to the shooting drama over and over again. My entire lunch was dominated by the death of that crazy man on the television.

The way the news anchors talked about it, it seems like they were hoping it was in fact a terrorist.

Lunchtime at Roswell

Who would have thought that the food at a hospital could be so yummy. Yesterday I got zuchibi with lasagna and today I got some chicken stuffed with raisins and something breadlike on rice with greenbeans. That plus a lemonade and two chocolate cookies came to about $5 with my employee discount. I couldn't even cook tha much yumminess for $5.

Work, work work, ya

Another exceptional day at work. I don't know how long this feeling will last but I really like my job and the coworkers.

Today I decided to ditch VbScript in favor of JScript. What an improvement! I like being able to write in the same language both server and client side, although, frankly, I think we are selling ourselves short by not using PHP 5.

I can now do everything I need to to begin making stuff. Tomorrow I will tackle the Blackberry.

I love my job/life

I love my new job. By the end of the day I was writing production viable vbscript using classes to validate input like zip code with and without extensions and all the different flavors of phone numbers. I also got put in charge of crackberry and mobile development.

Best of all I got my schedule changed to 10 to 6:30 and I am able to write this walking home from my supermobile while listening to live streaming radio.

visual basic logic

strComp is a visual basic string manipulation function that compares the contents of two strings. When they are equal it returns 0. Yes, that is a zero, known everwhere else as false.

visual basic is ugly but easy

This morning I am studying visual basic while my computer is offline.

It is so primitive looking.

Fortunately, the schedule is variable. I will be developing mobile stuff for the crackberry.

Vbscript is ugly . It reminds me of programming the basic stamp. end if, lol

Morning Time

It has been years since I have seen 7am. It instantly brought me back to the feeling of waking up for high school.

I am excited to see what the day brings.

Smoking - It'a Quitting Time

Last night we went out to Allen Street Hardware and the Pink for (e:rachel)'s birthday. I smoked lots of cigarettes.

image

Being that I officially start work tomorrow morning at Roswell Park, I think it is an appropriate time to really quit smoking. I have been smoking since I was twelve.

I never smoked more than three cigarettes a day but I also have been rolling my own and mostly smoking unfilted cigarettes.

I remember the first time still. At least I am pretty sure. After religion class my friend Heather and I headed to (e:iriesara)'s and I remember having entirely to much coffee in religion class. Heather and I mixed the coffee with hot chocolate packages and way too many coffee grounds.

The teachers didn't seem to ever mind because we were often the life of the religion class. Whenever I was that hyper I would get really into class.

So afterwards we headed down Eugene over to Sara's and somehow we had cigarettes. I am going to assume that they came from Watson's on Deleware in Kenmore. They are the same people that own Watson's Candy but back then they had a restaurant too and in the back they had an unguarded cigarette machine which was great for a kid wanting cigarettes.

When we smoked heather got sick and threw up. I believe (e:iriesara) and I liked it and we became smokers. I think she loves them even more they I do. In fact, she kind of sounds like captain Jane Way from Star Trek Voyager.

(e:lilho) likes to smoke too. Here she is before and after smoking.
