Here is a pic of the dma:390 site which is based on fire chicken.

Pricegrabber started this program where it made anti-pop up logos that other sites can use on their sites. They all say "what is this" and link back to pricegrabber. How great is that for an advertsing gimmick disguised as genuine care. Of course people are going to click onthe what is this and end up back at pricegrabber!

I was looking at this laptop site when I first noticed it. By the way their laptops seem like great deals. I first saw there ad in mobile computing.

Anyone who thinks that it is just for business or whatever is so wrong. I code little thigns to make my life easier and more fun all the time. I just managed to download about ~7000 pictures off my favorite site with a simple little PHP script.

We went to wegmans and bought so many groceries. It ended up costing $342.00 and they asked us if we needed carryout service. I don't think I ever bought enough groceries to get carry out service before. However, the dissapointing thing is that we only saved $7.00 with our wegmans card. That seems like not enough on a $342.00 order.



You may ask what did you get for $342.00. Well lots of bulk stuff. Like a 15 lb bag of rice, a gallon of oil , two half gallons of milk and the entire display for Palak Paneer. Sorry if anyone else wanted them. They were on sale $1.99 and I knew we would not go back for another month. It is the fastest tastiest thing that the earth has to offer in my opinion. I also bought enough echinacea for all of winter ($18.00), a big bag of shrimp. It just all added up.





Well it is still snowing really bad and so many things are cancelled. I am going to go eat my procuito.

So it looks like the poetry class is moving and I am dropping the Communciations class. I guess my schedule is bound to change again! I have to go get the elctronics book from (e:soyeoon). I better do it now.

I was looking for an electronic copy of a book titled by Forrest M. Mimms Getting Started in Electronics that they used to sell at Radio Shack. Apparently, the guy got all creationist in the easily 90's and even though he was mega successful, Radio Shack dropped him. Just to think only ten years ago you could get fired for being an open creationist. Oh my how times have changed.

Anyways, that isn't the funny part. What is funny is that while searching for the book I found a link to a site that mentions the book and is called the best online buys or something. Look how this conversation degenerates. It is the most outrageous online discussion gone bad example I have even seen.

I think we should start a web site called web sites gone wild. Like girl's gone wild but about community based web sites that get out of control.

What science teacher has the url ilovejesus.com, NMr. Denn does

It is seriously freakin' cold out. I ordered spicy chicen with rice and vegtables to warm me up

It is -11 degrees today and I am back at north campus. It gives me a sick feeling. Something about the center for the arts makes me feel like I am at the hospital.

I have to officially decide on my thesis today I guess. It's all part of the beaurocracy here. I need to get my form signed to take thesis supervision, but in order to do that I need to have defined my thesis.

I probably fucked everything up by not forming my committee early enough but I kept hoping faculty would come along who were more in my field and were socially acceptable to me. I just know their are some people I couldn't get along with because I don't like the way they work. That has inhibited me for so long.

I am so glad it's almost over, I may have to turn down another job offer today.

I have been so busy getting ready for teaching and school to to start. I just finsihed the class websites for both classes so now it is time for bed. I like the orange color schem of the dma:390 site Maybe orange is in the future for estrip although I would like to think that I could try red too.

Tomorrow is my first real-time electronic art class. It sounds promising. Then I teaching "3D modeling for 2D Imagery". On Monday, Wednesday, and Friday I am taking "Cyberporn and Society" and then on Thursday "teaching intro to digital media arts." It is a seriously full schedule and at some point I also have to begin reading lots of books and writing my thesis. I am also thinking about taking on another job as I love coding so much!

Often, the time I spend on the site involves trying to figure out how to deal with the people who want would mess stuff up. Like I said earlier the reason I don't want comments, or forums, or unlogged chat is because of stuff like this. On the restaurant review page which I tried to make open - no login required (which I will have to change) some typed this is in the chat

Why are some people so stupid? I truly believe the internet is the capitalist mega superstore it is because people would will not respect what is free. It is really hard in our ultra price and status concscious country to not equate free with "not worth anything". If you don't have to login you can forget about respect. But by making a login system you are cutting off lots of people who are afraid to register for stuff because they think its dangerous or costs money.

I have been looking into topic ideas for journals as (e:twisted) requested and its kills me to look at these forums on the web because people just flame each other instead of talking about any topic. The journals here are separated enough and there is enough personal responsibilty that it doesn't really matter if some comments on your writing on their journal.

And if it is someone just making a one day post to annoy people , they quickly dissapear. If we have a pet journal that anyone can write on, and someone things you are wrong about you pet annecdote or pet car etip, etc. They will simply rip you apart in the next entry. Which slowly then turns it into an argument about some meaningless side topic instead of the intended topic and worse yet, it will always be on top as more people get nvolved in the argument pushing other poele out of the last 12.

This is really a problem. I mean most people probably think this is just funny and I am too serious, but I think that it is really a serious problem on the net. One solution is to appoint an admin who oversees the exchange of ideas and elliminates this type of chatter but in reality this could easily become a type of censorship and takes a lot of time.

I am thinking for here topic jorunals can be created sort of liek smart playlist on itunes. I have to think about it a lot. Right now I should return to 3D for a couple more days. Then I can work on it.
