Nin-ten-do / It's a breakfast now / Nin-ten-do / It's a cereal! WOW!
July 12, 2001, 04:20 pm Arg! I made a post this morning, but something freakin' went wrong. When I submitted my post, I was asked to login again, which I did and was asked to login again. Damnit. This futher inspires me to get off my lazy ass and learn jsp (or give in and write my diary application in php).I've finally found a gift to give my mom for her birthday. I built a website for this photographer on the first floor and, in exchange, he gave me "art". I was going to get this picture, but instead I got this picture, which I will give to my Mother. She'll probably like it. It's this "most excellent" fountain on St. James Ave. (which is about 40 feet from my house and is also where the St. James Art Fair is). I think this is the first time ever that I've felt satisfied with a gift for my Mom.
This morning the-mighty-Kurt-boss told us that the-new-boss-James had another heart attack yesterday. Wow. So everyone was really weird. Kurt and the SpamO visited James in the hospital over the lunch break and said that while he would be okay, he wouldn't be coming in for a few days. Yikes.
Yesterday at work, Cowboy asked me if I was interested in join his singing group. They're all about singing a cappella and barbershop and whatnot, so I wasn't really interested. But I was flattered that he would think I was good enough to even consider asking. I think the only time he's ever really heard me sing was at the recent 4th of July cookout when I played a bunch of Radiohead and Nerf Herder songs on acoustic guitar.
I have this picture and this picture of Lesly and me. I miss her friendship. (in the first picture, I have a Kenyon Film Society shirt in my hand! thanks eka!)
Here's an example of how freakin' funny my roommate is: he IRC's a lot, mostly to mess with people, and on one particular IRC server that he spends a lot of time on, they have this bot that scans for WinGate servers on the users' machines. If a WinGate server is found, they get kick/ban'ed or glined or something. But that's not the point of the story; he thought it would be a good idea to have a program waiting on the socket that WinGate servers usually run on and when the IRC bot checks to see if it is a WinGate server, flood the bot with a crapload of text like "eat shit" (well, the "eat shit" part was my idea; jerkface just wanted one character, like "aaaa....."). So I wrote up a quick and dirty python sript to do just that. I can't wait until they try it out. :)
