tired as can be
I am mostly done working for the weekend, so it works out. However, I am ridiculously tired. Now I just need to go get a social security card so I can get paid for it!!
Look at my eyes. I took a pic so I would remember what it felt like to think till you are exhausted when I am old. If they give me a problem at the social security office I am likely to go postal. Look for me on the news, lol.

My Latest Project
In the mean time I have been hired to work on stuff for the Virtual Reality Department at UB. My first task was redoing their web site which used to look like this.
Now it looks like this. The white is supposed to be the profile of one of the characters I created for one of Josephine's VR projects and the yellow shooting out the eyes is the beam from the projector that make sthe VR happen. The grommets are just my usual grommets from Cinema 4D. I wonder how (e:strip) made it so far without them. I put the beta version here
The biggest changes however are in the way it is coded. Now it is XHTML compliant with js separated from HTML and style separated from content. It can also be updated by the professors there without work on my part. Hopefully, that works out.
I like this logo even if gears are cliche.
I love how the spell check always wants to change Josephine's VR project to Josephine's VCR project!
On a side note while I was checking the new page for XHTML compliance I tested out the media studies site at UB and wow what a totally not standard piece of crap code job it is. It doesn't even have a doctype not that it would be valid for any doctype. The css and javascript are all included in the main doc instead of included as external files so that they could be cached. It is basically lame code side, although it at least looks nice.
It just proves the fact that I wasted so much time and money at the crappy school. The guy who taught the web classes sucked so bad. I heard that he was paid like $7000 to make that site and then paid students to do it for like $500.

Grant Street
(e:metalpeter) [inlink]metalpeter,428[/inlink] Here are my answers about Grant Street.
I think that Grant Street will experience some of the riches from the elmwood area but I don't know if that is necessarily a good thing. It just depends how far it goes. It is good for investors and for people with money who want to "settle" the neighborhood but generally it will drive prices up and poor people out. And where do they go, then? Gentrification totally changes the demographic of the neighborhood. Some people describe that as progress. I my opinion it's not always that good.
I mean, I think it is important for people to move in that care about their neighborhood. And I defiantly think that slum lords and crack houses need to be dealt with but if it goes too far, it will end up like yuppified elmwood where the price of housing jumped from the $400-$600 range to the $700-$1000 range much faster than general inflation. You can just see it in the prices of Wilson's Farms. They are way higher than we pay over here near main street. (e:terry) could say more about that.
The worst scenario is that it gets bought up by out of town investors who then rent the houses at out of town prices. Gentrification is nice for the settlers but not for the people who already live in the neighborhood.

Basra Javascript and Bookshelves
I feel bad for Basra because he has no idea that his summer wonderland paradise is coming to and end. Although his luxury condo is nice. He definitely prefers to be outside. I guess he probably has some idea because he dozen't get to sleep outside at night anymore.
I worked with students for about 5 hours yesterday helping them build javascript games. It is fun when it works.

Shopping Life
I wrote a letter to (e:twisted) at the mall while eating tastu teriaki chicken. Well not tasty but satisfying because I was so hungry. Poor (e:matthew) could barely eat anything. For some reason the cingular smtp server wasn't working so I couldn't send it. She also wasn't on IM when I tried so here it is.
Afterwards we went to elmwood to get clams one last time before summer ends. They are so yummy.
I saw that (e:jason) and (e:joshua) took down the banner, so if any wants to be the new home of it, it needs a new home. I would put it on linwood but i don't think it would serve it's purpose.
I made a new wallpaper for my phone. It appears smaller here than on the phone screen which is 640 x320

Congratulations Deidre and Rich
It was nice to see (e:haikuster)'s parents too. I hadn't seen them in years. It was so strange to see (e:haikuster), my first girlfriend, get married.
Sorry I have been so absent from everyone else's life this week. I am really busy trying to get my data sorted. (E:matthew), (e:terry) and I had fish (blue smiley), chicken (yellow smiley), and beef(red smiley). I had gotten the salmon but matthew couldn't eat the beef gravy so I had to switch. I was actually quite happy about it. I felt bad for (e:rachel) because everyone was talking about killing and eating animals and she is vegetarian.

Strange Day
This morning I went with my dad to help some lawyer who helped us out, fix his computer. He was a realy nice guy with an office on Hertel. I wa slooking around his office and he was the president of the Buffalo School Board for fifteen years. The problme with his computer was something with the quicktime browser update function hijacking dial-up. It was the first time I could say to someone that my phone was faster than their computer!
While we were out to breakfast my father said we are seeing the downfall of America unfold. I have a feeling he is right. He usually is.

Driving in the Dark
Thank god I have amassed a collection of more than a thousand bus and metro tokens. Sometime they will be really valuable.
