Catching Up

So now that I have finsihed the reading project, I can move onto the VR project, followed by the overdue independent study, followed by grading, followed by working on this site. I will add some fixer upers this weekend. Maybe sooner. Right now I just realized that the link list neds to be stripped of slashes. I might as well fix that now.

Other than that it is nice to see so many new people considering I have not advertised the site whatsoever. I guess we should probably have another party soon. Luckily it will be Matthew's birthday on the 18th of March, so I feel a party brewing.

Weather and Bikes

So the weather is finally nice. I guess this year I will have to get a bike, although it is really quite unhelpful for my demanding schedule of distant treks. I can't see myself ever having enough time to bike out to UB North Campus.

I miss the days when I had time to not think. I seems that now I never even have a moment that goes by when some pressing issue is not on my mind. I can see how this type of mentally demanding lifestyle over a long period of time would lead to a mental breakdown of sorts.

I guess it should only be one more year of this but at some point it has to end, right?

I cannot wait to get the digital camera. I am so excited about starting photography but at the same time, I have a feeling it will become another demanding hobby, that becomes all-consuming. I seem to have an addiction to all-cosuming hobbies. My first photo set idea is about door locks. There are so many different kinds and it really a statement about the privacy and security issues of our people.

Body Trick Insanity

1.While sitting at your desk, lift your right foot off the floor and make clockwise circles.

2.Now , while doing this, draw the number 6 in the air with your right hand.

Your foot will change direction and there's nothing you can do about it.

Christian Education

So on the way home from JB I decided to listen to Christian Radio just to give it a whirl and because I was so sick of hearing random officials justify the British spying on Koffi Annan and how it was "normal and accepted foreign policy." One offcial interviewed on NPR actually said that is what the UN was designed for. To allow each of the countries to share information about each other without having to resort to war, so it was perfectly within that vision that the British spied on Koffi Annan.

So anyways, next topic - there was a woman preacher on FM radio, and to tell you the truth she terrified me by reminding me just how fucking scary Christians can be. It started out with her saying "He he sows discord amoung his brethern is an abomination to God." Poor George W.

The scariest part of all of this is when the woman began to brag about how she only had a high school education and yet she preaches to thousands of people each week. The crowd of hundreds started yelling, and clapping, and getting all excited. Then she went on and on about how education isn't all its cracked up to be and about how the wisdom of God is enough. It was so scary to hear the people agreeing and hooting. As thos ethey were so oppressed by their educations. That is what I always imagined Christians to be like, but never spoke of because I figured people would say I was being Christophobic (I just coined that now, Paul 2004.)

This is a classic

This is my visually impaired grandmother looking at enlarged faces of family member's fotos that we scanned in, many whom she hadn't seen in decades or more, enlarged on my laptop. She was very happy as you can tell. It was great to be able to zoom in so close to her mother and siblings in pictures from the 1920-1970s.

We ended up scanning about a hundred pictures and now I have them all digitally captured. It was so neat to digitally capture my grandfather into the computer. he would have loved it. I even got him into my cell phone.

Sidekick Pictures

I guess the sidekick s good for something. Today I was eating with Terry at spot Coffee, when we discovered that our eating experience was being captured on video and displayed at the albright knox. It is really weird but seeing as I am used to public life I did not care. Instead I captured them live on my sidekick. So here is to electronic stalking of the electronic stalkers.
