I love my job/life
Category: work
I love my new job. By the end of the day I was writing production viable vbscript using classes to validate input like zip code with and without extensions and all the different flavors of phone numbers. I also got put in charge of crackberry and mobile development.

Best of all I got my schedule changed to 10 to 6:30 and I am able to write this walking home from my supermobile while listening to live streaming radio.

visual basic logic
Category: programming
strComp is a visual basic string manipulation function that compares the contents of two strings. When they are equal it returns 0. Yes, that is a zero, known everwhere else as false.

Ah, but if it is doing a comparison (and not an equality check), then the result could be negative (if first string is less than the second), 0 (if they are equal) or positive (if first is greater than the second). Think of it as the "<=>" operator. For example, the comparison function in Unix's qsort() routine does the same thing.

visual basic is ugly but easy
Category: programming
This morning I am studying visual basic while my computer is offline.

It is so primitive looking.

Look at it this way: if it's easy, you'll have more time to play around ;)

it's going good
Category: work
Fortunately, the schedule is variable. I will be developing mobile stuff for the crackberry.

Vbscript is ugly . It reminds me of programming the basic stamp. end if, lol

Morning Time
Category: work
It has been years since I have seen 7am. It instantly brought me back to the feeling of waking up for high school.

I am excited to see what the day brings.
