Thursday CrusadersCategory: thursday
This morning I saw the Orchard Park Police on Main Street, what's up witht that?
I started out the evening with (e:enknot) at his friedns house, but there was a cat. Then we went to the square and (e:mike) showed up and I decided to walk around a bit.
Metropolis Mike
(e:mike) also suffers from allergies like me
This guy has a belt made out of bullets. I think its is gross.
I entertained myself with the Satan worshippers.
There were so few protestors this week and only one sign.
(e:libertad) and I felt bad for the cute one. He needed some liberation. (e:libertad) tried to give him his phone number but the kid asked him if he was a homo and wouldn't accept it.
Hotty McJesus
Watch this video - this man goes nuts on the "christians" and then the police pull him off them at the end.
(e:libertad) and the Hotty McJesus
I have a thing for Hotty McJesus
Some babble.

As the sun was setting and blinding my Vision I saw you and Mike. Sorry I didn't come over. I wasn't able to scream your name. Plus I was fealing kinda anti social and my legs didn't want to stand up. Glad you guys had fun. Those Jesus people are insane and thanks for putting up the pics.

Those videos are awesome. I wonder when someone will come out with a reality show based on these jesus saves protestors. What do they protest, anyway? Live music that's not xian rock?

you know the saddest thing about that boy was that even though he was telling me i was going to hell I knew that he deep down was really a good guy. I hope that he escapes hell soon, it really must be tormenting him.

Buffalo WifiCategory: thursday
Here I am at Thursday in the square again. It was so hard to rip myself away from the computer as I am getting closer and closer to my master creation javascript user interface library.
Okay I am ready to forget about it for a bit.

Coding JavascriptCategory: programming
This week, I have recoded my years worth of javascript functions and objects into a beautiful, name spaced, inter-dependent, object oriented library that will make new stuff so much more exciting to program and extend. Unfortuantely, I now have to go through the process of retrofitting everything I previously created with the system.
Luckily, I moved all the javascript code out of my documents and into external js files years ago, so there is no having to go through lots of markup to deal with inline tags that are burried deep within. Most of the stuff shall convert nicely and now I never have to worry about namespace conflicts ever again and will never have to track down little code snippets.
Surebert is no longer surebert but the surebertCom library which has a communicate object to replace the old surebert 1.6.
None of this probably means anything to anyone, but I want to note this day for when I look back.
I will make the library publically available at some point in the near future.
The objects themselves can a sort of namespace. e.g.
myLib={
jump: function(){
alert('jump');
},
run: function(){
alert('run');
},
swim:function(){
alert('run');
}
}
now I can safely use even if I am using other javascripts that has a jump() function.
mylib.jump();
if you know you aren't going to have a conflict that you can use
jump = myLib.jump; to make a sort of global alias to the function
jump();
The nice thing is all these objects can interact and extend each other and javascript object literal notation is so easy to read and maintain.
I group all my objects in the surebertCom object and then it has further breakdowns into uses and types e.g. surebertCom.strings, subrertCom.sounds, etc

Go To HellCategory: tenants
My stupid tenants leave their windows open all the time. I see it whenever I go by. Yesterday, they has their stuff stolen. Looks like someone came in through the door or a window with no evidence of breaking and entering. I feel bad for the girl who lost her laptop and the guy who lost his digital camera but who leaves the window or door open on a first floor apartment in the city.
Then to make matter worse the bank guy has to come evaluate the building for a home equity loan and the stupid tenant who I called and told he would be coming would not let him in. Even though I was on the phone explaining it. It is the guys fault for coming early, but there was no need for her to freak out. She pretended that she didn't know it was going to happen even though I clearly explained it to her yesterday. I was so angry I think I yelled at her and then hang up the phone. I hate it when people lie to me directly.
So here is the best part, we go ovet ot the house today after the fiasco with the bank inspector and the same girl who asked me to change the locks left the first floor window on the porch open again.
The only thing separating her from another robery was a thin window screen. Nobody even had to climb up, they could just go on the porch and go in. Who is so stupid to leave the window open the day after you get robbed? Maybe she had nothing left. Anways, I am so tired of supporting her charity case. My father even paid her rent when she couldn't afford to pay for a roomate that left. (e:paul,3934) He is a sucker for this jerk.
The only reason I keep this tenant around is because my father feels bad for her, but that is finally ending. Her rent is dirt cheap and she constantly has problems.
These are the same idiot who could not figure out how to put up the plastic I kindly bought them for their windows. It doesn't even require reading. The instructions are shown as pictographs for pete's sake.
The other day her and her roommate could not get the window open so I had to go over to open it. Turns out int he winter they had caulked and painted it shut. One gir caulked the other girl painted over it, so neither would claim responsibility to the entire problem.
I am debating if I should just kick them all out by not renewing their lease in August. She asked me the other day if I could find roomates for her because she didn't feel it was her responsibilty. I am tired of feeling sorry that she is a poor foreigner. Why the fuck did she chose to come to school in America. A private school nonetheless.
I didn't even go to private school and I am a citizen with instate costs.

I found this old fish in the freezer at my house, yuck:

If she's a hottie, offer to install webcams in her house.
This way the eStrip guys can, ahem, keep an eye on her house, in case it gets broken into again... especially the bathroom: I hear that's a big security hole.
Just offerin' to help, that's all...

Dont renew the lease. If she has not been responsible in upholding her end of the lease, than give her the boot. Dont feel bad.. this is business, not a charity. At this point, from what you have written, it appears she is taking advantage of everyone.
If this was a case of someone who is responsible and makes every effort to be a good tenant, that would be something to consider..
but it isnt.
Boot her (dumb?) ass.

It is never the landlords responsibility to find roommates for a tenant who would otherwise not be able to live there. How fucking stupid is this girl?
You don't need this, and if she is a risk to not be able to cover rent than that is her issue. This ain't a fucking soup kitchen. C'mon Paul - do the right thing.
