Back to 150lbs
Category: body
I quit the gym back in August and since then I lost the 15 lbs I had gained over two years. I guess I was really meant to be 150. Here is the the blog where I had just crossed 150lbs (e:paul,45837) going the other way. And here is where I was at the weight I want to be but can't dedicate myself to maintaining (e:paul,51035)

Well here we are 3 years later and I still don't go to the gym but I am 160 now. I thank probiotics for fixing my intestines.

I really am wanting to join the gym again. Maybe I wont pay down my credit card and will just offer them cash if they let me join at our old rate.

68% of the US population would be glad to trade places with you.

My bathroom floor looks exactly the same. For a while there, I tried to scrub out the black outline of the hexagonal tiles, but I have given up now.

Internet Explorer 9
Category: computers
I am posting this from Internet Explorer 9 on windows 7. There were a bunch of changes I had to make for surebert toolkit to work with IE9. The most interesting was that IE9 now supports document.addEventListener but it does not support e.__defineGetter__ which meant I had to make some changes. I bet a lot of scripts that used if(document.addEventListener) as way of detemining which event engine to use are going to be messed up. I mean there is always compatability mode, but I want stuff to work natively.

The best part about IE9 was the inclusion of what appears to be a fully functionaly javascript developer tool that is like firebug for firefox. Finally a true JS log and error debugger without the need to start an additional program like visual studio or microsoft script debugger. Between that and all the HTML 5 support they might have a fighting chance to gain developer interest. I guess we will see.

What would be really crazy is if they released IE9 on multiple platforms. Its one thing all the other browsers, especially chrome and firefox have going for them.

Windows 7
Category: computers
I had to install windows 7 to do some testing for my surebert toolkit and for work. It was all good at first. Then after the first windows update I got the same windows recovery mode screen I got the first day I got the laptop which had window 7 preinstalled.

THen this took like 20 minutes.

I also found it funny that a password was only recommended while a password hint was required?

I almost went to wasabi after my dance class but then I remembered that I had to finish veggies on the verge of rotting in the fridge.
