happy birthday to me

Yipee! I'm not a teenager anymore. Is that something to be happy about? I dunno. Maybe it means I'm getting old and obsolete. I hope to be about a quarter done with life now, (plan to die at 81) and so far so good.

I just got back from the Canadian Rockies road trip... it was amazing! And apparently I'm not half bad at photography. Check out the new photos page. Maybe I'm just full of myself again...

So Monday is the big move. I'm not sure if I'll have Internet access anymore... Jesus! That thought scares me! I would take Internet over proper nutrition. So, guess I'll shell out $$$ for DSL and only eat Perkins and Starbucks every day instead of Aqua and Red Lobster. And I'll have to get a BMW instead of a Porsche. Too bad. Santa Cruz, here I come!!!

In god we rust.

If you look around you see a simple world cuz it's too easy.

You dislike gray and I dislike you not since I am too lazy.

It's just you must consume, absorb, have every

Thing that you do not need, but want, sickening me.

You pull me in, absorb my will, instigating

My life in this charade of your humanity.

Program us to tune out, drop in for a function

Of yours. Keep us fearing the worst every second

That you herd us into this cage you call freedom

It's not too late to break away from an awful pattern

Binary has a place--oh yes but its not perception.

Strangling someone else takes place through a disconnection.

Fueling the war machine keeps us in a misdirection.

Dividing us and them. (oh we're so much better)

Break it, smash it, throw it away:

Your dominated mind,

Or take all you see from an evil on top;

You might as well be blind

When the world bites back and it's time to pay

This hypertrophic charge,

It's a pretty price and I hate to say

"In god we rust at large."

updates galore!

Hellohello!

The unemployment is going wonderfully. I've had a nice amount of time to work on the site in this short window of time before life gets serious again. So here it is: a brand new game for your gaming pleasure. Actually, two games in one. Check out the "focus" page, and be sure to notice the buttons in the lower corners.

Oh, and I couldn't get that stupid Men Without Hats "We can dance if you want to" song out of my head, so I did a cover of it to mock it. Check it out on the music page. Sadly, the damn thing is still stuck in my head.

Believe me, more updates are soon to come. The upcoming project should be VERY cool when it's ready.

Peace out!

it's unemployment!

Long time, no blog, eh? Perhaps I've been feeling more than a little sheepish at having pansied out of my truck unloading job. Having heavy machinery fall on your head and getting thrown into piles of damp, filthy laundry does tend to make a person less enthusiastic. But the temp agency has gotten me various other crappy manual labor jobs since. Whatever.

In any case, I've saved enough up to return to Santa Cruz and get a place, so that's good. Speaking of Santa Cruz, the Univerity (which I can no longer afford) sent me a packet with some forms the other day. But it wasn't just ANY packet of forms. No, it was super deluxe. The forms arrived in a high quality, full-color printed folder that looked like it had been designed by a professional graphic designer. "WOW," said I, "this is eye-catching and aesthetically pleasing!" And it only probably cost $3 to print the damn thing. Multiply that by 15,000 resident students (forget postage and graphic designer fees), and the whole project still doesn't cost as much as it would cost me to go to school there this fall as an out-of-stater. But that's not my point.

What really bugs me is that the place spends tens of thousands of dollars designing, printing and mailing total frivolities when they're broke, their students are broke and they have to raise the cost of tuition faster than inflation to keep from totally collapsing. It just doesn't make sense! I tell you, it's crazy!

Um, as for the site, no major updates lately. I've been thinking about making a computer game in Flash and even designed a few sprites. Here's our hero, the fabulous undefined:

Hope you like. Ta ta for now.
