I am not a cook. Today, (e:lilho) and I tried to fry calamari [dict]calamari[/dict] . It started with having to chop them into rings remove their brains. I fed the brains to this fish. (e:lilho) did the frying as I am afraid of oil. We did such a bad job and thanks to way to much salt, not hot enough oil, at gluten-free flour substiture, it came out really nasty. Like so nasty I don't even know how I feel about Calamari as a food. (e:lilho) just said ," ya, calamari (WIKIPEDIA - calamari) is now officially reserved for restaurants - I don't even want to look at it." It was so beyond editability that we had to throw it out.

To trash can where they belong.


So now I am at the point where I will never cook again in my life. I would rather work hard on the computer and save enough money up to hire a cook and buy a dishwashing machine. What a waste of an hour!

(e:terry) , (e:matthew) and I used to live on lexington. There are always so many police at this gas station on elmwood and lexington. I always wondered why? I remember from when I lived there that they always were inside helping themselves to donuts and coffee.

Is it because the city can't afford a proper elmwood police station or is it just more fun. I have to say I am sure they lose a lot of business because of it. Especially on days like today when every avaiable parking spot is taken up by the police. It just seems intimidating, even if you are a law abiding citizen.

I guess in return they get lots of protection.


What do you guys think?

I am still working on Josephine's[search]josephine[/search] The Trial the Trail even though I am techinically not enrolled in a class right now. I am trying to do the theatre scene which is coming out really good as far as I am concerned. She is not in town till August 14th, so I hope she likes the results when she gets back.

The larger versions and some real-time models can be found here The more time I spend working on PHP the more I miss 3D ,however, I think the web programming will be more useful for my future. It at least helps me share my other artwork!

This is the 2d story board they gave me to work with.



Here are my 3D versions, which eventually become real-time 3D models for Virtual Reality.

I was testing out the wikipedia stuff when I discovered a link about Buffalo, NY - cities requires city name followed by a comma and state name. (WIKIPEDIA - buffalo, New York)

They had this great picture of Lafayette square in 1922. Notice there was no grass at all practically. Who would have thought that we have mroe grass now.



I also found a page about Steve Kurtz (WIKIPEDIA - Steve Kurtz) which still doesn't answer my question about what happend to him? Does anybody know?

Does anyone remember Belly ? I used to really like their music.



I remember I had a tape of them that was the lemonheads on one side and Belly on the other. It died like every other pre-2000 worldy possesions in Canistota, South Dakota when I got stuck in the corn fields with (e:terry) and had to give up everything in order to return to the source and make it to Germany in time.



Canistota was so weird. It was like an entirely different world than the giant western metropolises we had left behind. My advice, is do not ever go there. Everyone in town knew us within two days. The circus was coming to town and we couldn't get our melted engine car fixed for three weeks. At first we thought we could wait it out. While we were there we stayed in a clinic for Amish people. After week two we realized we had to just get out of there and forget about the car. When we tried to leave by hitchhiking away at night, the police came and told us they knew about us, and our story. Same at the gas station, the food place, etc. We eventually found this horse rancher woman who gave us a ride to Sioux Falls and then we caught a Grey Hound.

The town was so small, the guy who was supposed to fix our car was also the fireman, street cleaner,etc. Here is some census data, so you an see what I mean

Needless, to say the tape left witht the car, and the following year I left tapes behind in exchange for mp3s. I just skipped over the whole CD era. I never even had a discman. I never found Belly though. So does someone have it? I would like to put it on the radio.
