Something you don't notice living on elmwood is that our community rests on the edge of several really poor communities. You probably notice but you aren't really directly confronted by it.

Living on Linwood, it is much more apparent. Not ont the street itself, but because anytime I go anywhere I take main street.

There are not shades of grey here. Everyone appears either totally rich or super poor.

I took the subway today after a year vacation from it. It freaks me the hell out. Especially at night when there is no one around. I used to take it all the time to UB but then I saw it be sketchy a couple times and decided I would rather not be in it anymore.

On the way back from there I overheard some handicapped woman saying how she couldn't afford new wheels for her wheelchair cause they were $36 each. She was talking about it like it was $3600. Then I turned the corner onto mansion alley. It just seems really unfair. I always questioned why they don't kill us.

I raced here and nothing happend. I can't wait for this life sucking project to be done. My partner wasn't in claas, my battery was dead, and someone borrowed my programming cable.

I was folowing around the industrial trail around the the tonawandas on google maps, when I found Grand Island. Then I followed the river down to Niagara falls. It looks cool from this shot.

I think I submitted an excellent cover letter for the job. If I get the job maybe I will post it as an example. I know I could have used one.

Two projects down, three projects to go. Then it will be time for the writing and some big site upgrades.

I have been working like crazy. I finsihed like half of my portfolio but enough for now . It is very javasciptastic but works without it too.

I also found out that Canisius has not just one or two Aibo's but like 5. A student from comp sci also said that they might have a 3D visualization screen. Maybe it has capability for VR. I wonder if they are running performmer or what? It almost sounded like an immersedesk. Who knows.

I am so ready to start life with a real job in the fall. I hope everything works out because I really want to be out of this situation with being quasi poor.

(e:shawnr) and I are beginning development on the pc toolkit, an opersource tool kit for e-poetry programming tools and the dept order my cell phone emulator so I should be making more cell-phone stuff soon.
