So I was working on the site and also developing my character for secondlife and there.com when I became distracted by the west coat. It is rare now that I have any internet access so I really have been wireless, but in a different way then usual. I guess no one will even believe we were out here because we once agin have taken no pictures. A habit that started with my trip to Africa in 1995 and has prevailed since then. It seems I will never end up having any pictures except those people send me.
We are staying with Terry's family while we are here.

Although I miss the ocean and the beach the warmth of the desert feels kinda nice. Plus we get to go climbing.

>>update March 2004
We finally got our film developed from the climbing trip. We climbed up this giant cliff. Here is a link to some amazing arial photos of the place.

Once we got to the top we stripped naked and ran around like headless chickens. It was some weird little city white boys sense of what is like to be a Native American.



Here is a picture from further away so you can see just how big the rocks are. I am circled in red. Its like a "Where's Waldo" Teryr is there too on the left.



Here is a picture form the top of the mountain.



Here is a picture of matthew at the same place. There are naked pictures of him here also. They are on his journal somehwere I think. He is the only man on Earth to use photoshop to reudce the size of his penis. He was embarrased of being the "king of the hill" I guess.

My powerbook trackpad died today . . . So I decided to send it back to apple. As soon as I send it off the hard drive I backed everything up onto crashes big time. Drive X, tech Tool Pro and Disk Warrior 3 had no effect. So now the site is going to be a little slower seeing as everything I was devloping that wasnt on the server is gone.

I am trying to get ready for the summer class I am teaching. Its about 3D online cartooning. Once I get everything going I will have my students work posted here.

I should get some of my own up to but in the mean time you can view the site which is all my own code and art. For instance the banner above is created with 3D cups I made in Cinema 4D, plus a web cam. The background is made up of scans of my skin.

If anyone out there has a good paying PHP / MYSQL job for me go ahead and send it to me. I am sick of doing resumé builders for minimal fees while Im in school. I am starting to believ that resumé builders are just another form of slave labor with a fancier title. I would rather people just say. We are cheap and don';t want to pay for service than try and play up there projects as resumé builders.
