It's such a pleasant surprise to see a rational, human response to the screw-up yesterday. I'm really glad that it was received as well as it was.

Just noticed a cool name subscribed to my journal... Sernya. (it's a pair of golden fish, Symbolizing resurrection of eternal life, rebirth etc. The pair signifies the ability to swim with ease without obstruction in the ocean of this world. They may also be taken to symbolize the eye of perception as fish can see through muddy water. The fish couple suggests mutual aid and indispensability between male and female material life.) I wonder who they are, and if I know them?

I hear Hagrid is sort of a second-string character in the latest HP. That's sort of a bummer, he's my fave. I wonder if having such a huge franchise is allowing her to write stuff that's an 870 page children's book. Sounds like an editor is needed.

Groceries coming by between 1:10-2:10, Dan's Coming by today sometime midday...after he registers at FAU. Hooray for key lime pie and Danny!

I don't watch Smallville, but I hear that they got Terence Stamp (General Zod) to Play Jor-El recently. How keen is that to a Fanboy?

Thanks to Matt for pointing out that Hi-C's Orange Lavaburst is the same Flavor as the old Ecto Cooler.


Some very cool comic book action figures. I wish they had a pic of the Golden age Green Lantern. The plushie version is pretty cool. I'm tempted to get Doug Deadman. I lean to Crypozoology ones, for myself. Hooray for Bigfoot action figures!

I just got to play super-database wunderkind for work, so I think that my street cred is up another few notches again. They had two totally demolished excel files, and I was able to write a quick bit of SQL that put the thing together again, resized fields and prepped the data for import into the xml system. Hooray for MySQL! I can't recommend it enough to anyone who does any sort of database programming. Did I mention that it's FREE under the GNU General Public License (GPL)?

Oh, I'd say that's the best ever. Now, if you want tech support, and can't be bothered to read the documentation (which is very complete and easy to follow) they're happy to charge you for that, and for certification.

Doug's getting into No One Lives forever... Dan got it for me a birthday or three ago, and I still have to say it's my favorite fps/spy game in a long time.

I joined fotolog, after seeing nomi's online. You can upload one image of up to 2 Megs a day. I took a quick snap of Dan & Myself (as Mage knight) fighting zombies on a bridge. I'm a little disappointed that it auto resized it... but I like the effect. More like a bad TV image than a woodcut now. If anyone else adds the log, let me know, so I can see your stuff!

I don't think it's good to remotely link the images to here, look like they kill the bandwidth.

New guy delivering groceries... he was about 45 min late. Nice fellow though, and I didn't mind.. not like I was waiting to go to a concert or something.
