I spent the entire day working on this radio station. I had planned to make a flash web player for it but then released that i would need to stream it through elmwoddstrip which would be too much bandwidth. So for now I stream it off my personal server. It seems to reach everywhere both by broadband and phone line. My parents got it on their 56k in Kenmore and one of my friend's listened to it in Lockport via broadband.

I am so excited about starting radio shows and doing video interviews on the street. I wish it was spring instead of winter. At least we have the server.

I also have to apologize to Soyeon and Diana. There was a bug in the code which did not allow you to log into your journals. I wish I noticed it earlier but its not often that I sign up. Today I was starting a journal for the radio station when I noticed.

The presentation went well. I am so glad I didn't use openoffice. The kid who did an openoffice presentation totally had his presentation messed up.

I was going to go to New York this week. Then I realized there is really no reason to have to go to another city to "prove my worth." I think conferences are just a weird capitalist cross between vacation and self-promotional commercial. I want no part in it. Especially since my professor made it quite clear that it is acceptable to set up your friends in the audience with the questions about your work. That way you will know th answers ahead of time.

Why even bother with a question section then. Why not just present for 30 minutes instead of 15 minutes of speaking and 15 minutes of questions. The whole higher Academia thing is really starting to get on my nerves. I am so tired of talking about socially irrelevant stuff. I want to start working only on causes that make some sort of difference and not my lame-ass VR presentation of avatars.

I actually think VR is an expensive prriveleged white people playground. I want out before I even get in. If VR at all then at least on the web where it is accessible by all to explore the world and not in these limited envirnmets located in 10 cubes around the world.

At least Jessica is coming home this weekend. I havent seen her in a while and am started to miss the ho snuggle. Well I'm off to homeowrk land.

I spent the day working on some behind the scene stuff for the BCPM site. I guess I should switch back to homework at some point soon.

While working on it I figured out a coouple way to due some new stuff for elmwood.

So while all of my friends chillaxed this evening, I spent my time grading DMA 201 papers. I look back fondly on last year when the students were not required to write such papers. Check out what time it is right now on this posting. This is why I have 90 hour work weeks and my 9-5 friends do not. So much for the free time associated with being a lifetime academic.
