Today I moved a clients’ website to their new webhost.

thoughts are just words that have shape and meaning.

Ok, wow. New iPod came today…
I’m so stoked, my first music player since the late 80’s.
Anyways. Yahoo has some mean Pipes. Play with them…
What else? Arts Education goodness. Plus DataJar
The difference between Flash and “AJAX”
HTML was all there was
In the beginning, the net was crude and ugly. The original spec for WWW markup language was basic HTML. Text formatting, colors, some graphics; maybe 2 or 3 tiny ones, but not more, since modems were so slow.

“I don’t want to search google, nor pay you for your time, but could you give me all the answers I need in order to keep making money at my job?”
“my job that I was hired for because I said I knew this stuff”
i hate mentally lazy people. nearly everything I know in web development I know because I had to hunt it down and learn it myself. Sure I had people along the way who pointed at things and brought things to my attention, but I never would just sit there and whine about it.
You try and you try, and if you can’t figure something out, you seek out the answer, showing your progress/logic up to that point, then maybe someone will appreciate the fact you’re actually trying and they help you out. That is how it works. No on likes a mooch or a ‘note copier’.
On the flipside of that, nothing pisses me off more than working as hard as I do only to have some whiney c*nt get a better job than me because people gave them the answers. Of course, thats my tough titties for not being in the right place at the right time, but whatever, I can still rant at the universal injustice.
Meanwhile, this week is looking up. Some great projects coming up, the probablities are endless!
alrighty, let’s see what’s up here…
I just worked all night, feel rather wasted and headachey. trying to put together a new template for a site. It’s complicated in that I have to decide as I go what I’m doing from scratch and what I can hack together from working parts.
and oh my god it’s -38c right now…
listening to techno keeps me focused. Zombieeeeee
So the week is ended, it’s Saturday night and I fee alright, if a little pissy. We need a bigger place. The kids drive everyone and each other nuts, I need a place to think without having to leave the home…
This will all come to a pass soon, since the building we’re in is being sold and everyone is going to be kicked out. So much for caretaking, I have nejoyed the no-rent thing… Ah well.
The night holds promise. We’ve put out the call to have people over, hopefully some will come.
The business plans are coming along (none of you would know what I mean, assume they are fantastic). <removed due to pettiness> is totally on the bandwagon, and has already registered the name. crazy!
This is a possible logo… if you see it again, you will know you saw it first!
Alright. I’ve avoided this for a long long time.
I’m seriously attempting a blog. It is going to chronicle my progress as I claw my way out of the muck that is my life.
To know where I’m going, I need to know where I am.
To know where I am requires understanding where I was and how I got here.
I better do this before I can’t remember what the heck happened…
In the meantime..
