The dark scary subway tunnel


This picture is dark and crappy. It's not because my iPhone takes
shifty pics but because there was only one light on in the tunnel by
Canisius. On the last set of steps I actually had trouble seeing the
stairs going down in front of me.

Sharing Sickness

There is this guy at work who always comes in when he is sick and gets me sick. He sits right behind me and I have to work with a lot. Everytime he got sick this year, I got sick like a day later.

He always ends up staying home after he gets me sick. My question is why can't he just stay home when he is sick in the first place like everyone else. Thats why we have like 6000 sick days. It really sucks to be sick on the weekend in that case. He always says things like stay away I am sick. But when you sit in the cube right next to them, its hard to "stay away."

Now I am sick and got no painting done, argh. I pretty much missed the whole day. Next time he sneezes or coughs or I am just going to take a sick day until he takes one, which is kind of ridiculous but its better than being sick.

Another day of repair and paint


The morning started with a call from my boss at 8am that I was late
for a presentation to the leadership forum. The meeting was two and
half hours before my usual start time and I had taken today off to
work on the house, totally forgetting about it.

So, i rushed out and made in time for my presentation and it went
awesome. Work has just been awesome in general. I even got an award
for innovation. Find out more about that next week.

So back to the house, I am capable of doing so many more things now
thanks to my new wood chisel set. I made some fancy new replacement
parts for the house facade and replaced some more shingles with
(e:matthew)'s help. Some bees has gotten in where the insulation was
blown in. We stuffed them shut and replaced the shingles that were on
top of them. You can't even tell which ones are new.

I was also able to finish half of the driveway-side cornace in brown
and orange. I had my dad come and watch me in case i fell. I think
he enjoyed watching me work, haha. It was also nice to spend some
time with him.

It's crazy how much you an get done in a day.

Painting the bathroom

We are hosting the Linwood Historic District home tour after party next weekend. I have so much crap to do before then. I am going to hanve to take off some time from work.

Today we painted the back bathroom. I really want to redo it but it will have to wait while we finish other stuff. In the mean time we sanded it all down and painted. It already looks so much different. It was time for the stupid red sailboats floating in the clouds to go.

What I really want is a walk in shower. At home depot the other day I found this ad for showers. Who has a Kohler shower with a steam vent and disco lighting. I know I want it. I hope it comes with the costumes.

Possible Threat Of Weather Apps

This is too funny. I love when local media has articles about stuff they do not exactly understand.

This one article on wivb was about the danger of installing 3rd party apps on cell phones and how they can have viruses or be full of exploits. That is true and there is real danger there but what's weird is this passage.

Another possible threat is simple weather apps. GPS technology conceivably could take control of a smartphone, by reading text messages and address books.



Loosely translated into english: I don't understand cell technology but I heard some of it is scary so I will name some random part of the system I know the acronym for as dangerous and make up some bull shit reason.

The real thing they should say is this. Like desktop apps you shouldn't install apps from sources you do not trust.

Apple's shitty web

I am so sick of not being able to see flash media on my iPhone. This
is excactly why I did not buy the iPad. I mean who can live without
the strawberry shortcake site? Specifically,

No seriously, it sucks. I get the whole, they want to control everything and have optimal battery life but flash could be offered as an option you can turn off. It could even be off by default, or not installed by default. Clearly the phone could power it like android or maemo. And clearly, adobe is interested in that happening.

I realize HTML 5 is better in the long run but so us HTML 6, 7, 8. Unfortunately sites are still designed for media delivered by flash and major changes are expensive to make. Not to mention that IE does not support HTML 5 and they are still a huge percentage of the browser market.

I'm case you are wondering what the web full of hole looks like, this is what it looks like.

Notice its not like removing flash removes adds. They just do those with javascript and HTML5.
