Ate lobster and went to the gym
When I got home I cooked some yummy lobster and ramen noodles. I love that combination. It is so ridiculous that the lobster costs $12 and the ramen noodles cost $0.15 but they honetsly compliment each other well.
Caught a lot of mice with our new humane mouse trap that traps them inside so we can keep them a freakin' pets? (e:matthew) refuses to put them outside because they could "freeze to death in winter" They are freakin' cute though but 6 is really enough. I am really glad we started catching them before it got out of control. I would like to feed them to the squirrel's but (e:matthew) wont let me. The squirrels love to eat things like mice and baby birds.

windows propaganda and meat
I guess I have to give them credit for their mobile operatung sysrem. It seems pretty good and I'm typing this on it right now.
I am going to post the whole video to youtube later for your viewing displeasure.
The video is still "evaluating"
At roswell they actually had some sick pork. It just smelled wrong. It was the first time I disliked their food. I considered actually being vegetarian again for a second.
The other camera
However, this veggie meat looks even sicker.
(e:eknot) stayed after to ask the microsft guy lots of questions, then we drilled him about the secuirty hole with the clipboard viewing code. He didn't know about it.
Memory management in vista sounds insane.
There was so much traffic on the 290 on the way there. It felt like being in a real city. Maybe there is always traffic and I just never leave my neighborhood. It is weird working only a block away from work. It is like I never leave the microcosm much anymore.

Long Day
Anyways, I was visiting the smoothy demo for surebert when I came across this collage. if you remember, smoothy basically takes a web address, eats all the pics from the page and then displays it as a gallery. It also gives you the code to display the gallery on your own site.
The default view is cnn.com and for some reason there was the picture of a woman with a crown on at the far right. What can that possibly be about.
I have this insane desire to earn more money but I am stuck with not enough hours in the day to manage anything. I wish I had an investor with connections as I have several good ideas which just need funding.

New Camera and New Gather
Today I played with my new wifi compatible camera. It seems pretty cool but at the same time I am not convinced about the quality of the images yet. It says it takes pictures at 7.2 megapixels but I have been taking most picture at 640x480 for my journal and the pics are not that great at that resolution.
It does great with video
Here are the pics of zoar valley. We went there with Anika. Basically, it was late so we just walked out on point peter and climbed down the cliff and then back up before retiring. It was a real workout.
Along the edge I found this footprint way on the edge of like a 150 foot dropoff. I wonder if it was someones last footprint. I mean a bunch of poeple have died here.

Squirting a Song - The zunesquirt
How funny would it be if you got a virus from unprotected squirting?
Quoted from newsweek
Nov. 27, 2006 issue - Have you squirted a song yet? That's the question Microsoft hopes your friends will ask you as you ponder which digital music player to acquire. Although you are more likely to buy an iPod this season-something even Microsoft admits-the software giant from Redmond is running a huge marketing campaign that it hopes will plant some seeds of doubt. After all, iPods don't squirt songs. And Microsoft's new player, Zune, does.
The catch is that the squirt is fast-drying-in three days it goes away. Or, if the recipient plays it three times within that period, it evaporates after the third spin. This is because Microsoft cut a lousy deal with the record labels, which still regard innovative digital schemes as potential piracy threats, as opposed to potential sales boosters. My guess is that people will be turned off that the songs expire so quickly.
Here is an article that someone has written on roughly drafted about the zune.

Fun Kind Of Programming Day
Almost no one was at work today. It felt weird being there alone in the evening but it was pretty productive. I got a lot of programming done and the system seems promising after all.
I also came home and added a whole lot of new features to surebert including multi file upload via the mini surebert flash file but exposed as a javascript service. I wish I had bothered doing that before. I should be done with the new version this weekend and then I will add it to estrip. Soon you will no longer need to upload one file at a time, thank god.
I am also excited because tomorrow I am getting my new Wifi camera that will speak to my journal. It is the Nikon s7c I love the idea of high resolution wifi communication between my new fancy camera and my journal.

brain cancer sucks - help dance it off?
It's the day after Thanksgiving and you're sick of turkey...join Knowmatic Tirbe for another helping of...
HAMBURGER HELPER V.2
featuring the infamous KNOWMATIC TRIBE SOUNDSYSTEM...
Christ Sinister a.k.a. Mr. Ass, God Morgen, Marcos, Xotec...with assorted special guests, perverts, deviants, farm animals and sociopaths.
ALL DOOR PROCEEDS to benefit the GOOD TIME KID FUND (Mr Ass' mounting medical expenses due to his ongoing battle with brain cancer).
Chris came thru his surgery surprisingly well, however only time will tell what effect the chemo and radiation will have on the remainder of the tumor still in his skull...the doctors could not remove the entire tumor, because it would have adversely affected his speech and comprehenson skills. Chris is tolerating the chemo very well (not surprising given all the chemicals he injested over the years...heh heh)...Average life expectancy for his agressive cancer is usually 18-36 months, however his doctors are optimistic about his chances to survive and thrive. We continue to keep hope alive!
One scary fact I learned the other day...one chemo pill costs over $200 dollars! Chris needs many in order to beat this....Medicaid has been helpful, but it doesn't cover it all and does not begin to cover all the costs for the specialists that Chris has on his side.
So please, come join us for a night of high wierdness and the future funk that only the Knowmatic Tribe can provide...
suggested "donation" is only $5....the flyer is done and about town tonight.
I wonder if he is treated by the group over at

Cranberry and Pandora
I always make it with oranges and ginger. I think it tastes best that way. Best of all cranberry sauce is very easy to make. Some cranberry's in a saucepan with some water/orange juice. Cook till they are mushy add sugar and orange zest to taste. Lots of sugar in my case. Then I generally take some of the seeds off the top when they float up, although I don't think this is quite necessary.
The lime video
There is also this mouse living in the cabinet in the kitchen. I think his name is rupert. He has horded so much food it is insane. It actually smells like mouse in the cupboard which is digusting. I want to clean it up really bad with the vacuum. In fact my super vacuum would make the task a breeze but (e:matthew) insists that if we clean it up he is going to go into the other food. I don't think this is a very effective way of combating the mouse. He wants to catch him and set him free. I want to smash him. I guess we are just different like that. I feel like at this point he has invaded my space and forfeited his right to niceness that say a mouse outside my house would get.
While I was waiting I decided to clean up the kitchen. I was listening to my pandora station as I mostly do when listening to music. They had an add for a new device that plays pandora stations. I think I want one of those for christmas.
Pandora is often very good at picking music for me but sometimes it starts to mutate my taste sin a really fucked up way. For example my kimya station. I like kimya. Pandora thinks that means I like girl indie rock so it starts to give me lots of girl band music. There is lots of lesbian rock music in it. Now I would not really think of Kiya as lesbian rock music but she is a female indie artist so that isthe connection. Sometimes girl rock like Indigo Girls or Melissa Etehridge gets in there which are kind of like country music. Because I don't give those the thumb down (either I am busy prograing or cooking in this case) it continues on along this horrible path. It assume that mellisa etheridge is kind of like country music so it starts to add country music which inevitably leads to a song about jesus, defiantely girl rock music about jesus is not my thing but I let it go once again because I am busy. I think it starts to get an attitute at this point. It thinks, "So you like jesus girl music and country." Lets go ahead and try gospel and that's where no matter what I am doing I put my foot down. It's the craziest mutation of my like for Kimya as she is definately not gospel music.
I also realized it wa sthis sick blend of girl bands that is bringing me down. On Friday I am switching back to techno.

Headaches and Heaters
I think part of it is stress and the other part is that my new office is barely warm and my neck gets tense when it is cold. Today I just wore my scarf. I think my cubicle gets coldest because it is near a window.
The guys on the other side of the building have very warm cubicles that get sun. I am jealous. I just might buy a freakin space heater for in my cube.
The picture of the computer on the floor is (e:enknot)'s old one at work. Doesn't it look sad thrown on the floor and all naked.
My heater finally came for my home office. It makes the room really warm but it still smells a little weird.
I am so glad tomorrow will be a feast. Oh shit, I forgot to make cranberry sauce. I better get up early.

Anyway, the mice propagate so quickly you'll probably have babies soon. Then there'll be more than enough to help the squirrels all winter.
By the way...what are you feeding your new pets? Or are they just going to eat each other?
