Personal
A New Hope
06/12/07 16:52
Ok, on a personal note here, I've been lazy with this
whole site. And I've had little time or energy to
devote to it. Or rather, little time or energy after
you take into account all the many Xbox 360 titles
there are to play. And all the sleeping I might
otherwise do. Not to mention college applications and
schoolwork. Anyway, I mean to turn over a new leaf
this time, really I do. That said, you may have
noticed some changes to the site. I'm in the middle
of overhauling its overall appearance. During this
transitional time, you may notice things don't look
fantastic. Not to worry, I mean to fiddle with every
last thing until I get it right. I can't be sure if
anyone takes this blog seriously. In fact, I
sincerely hope no one does. But if there exists such
a person, I apologize for this site's overall
uselessness, and sincerely hope that I manage to make
it into something worthwhile this time.
Oh, and I've also upgraded to RapidWeaver 3.6! Huzzah!

Ubuntu

I'm told it's a reference to some word used by some
culture in Africa. Meaning something like World-Peace
or something, it's a distro of Linux I've been
hearing a whole bunch about. So, for some reason I
decided to take it upon myself to instal it on my
laptop. As far as I can tell, that part went well
enough, or at least seemed to. I had the whole thing
up and running before I realized that there's no
driver for the airport extreme card in my laptop...
Well, with the internet out of the picture, my first true for-ay (sp?) into linux didn't go so well, and I've already got Tiger reinstalled on there. If anyone can think of a better distro for a 17" powerbook G4 with an airport extreme card and all, I'm ready and willing to try again. Also, I'd appreciate one with a Majong app pre-installed. That's all I got going on ubuntu but I liked it.
So yeah, any suggestions, go ahead and post a comment or something. Lord knows I get lots of those.

It's clear to me that if this were ancient Rome,
Eygpt, or something like that, I would have been
declared a minor deity by now. (If not god of gods)
Whilst writing my last post, It occurred to me that
someone might have already done a widget to count
down the days, hours, min, and sec until my beloved
battlestar galactica returns to my television... (and
computer and ipod for that matter) This is when I
noticed there was but one other battlestar widget
indeed, and it certainly puts mine in it's place.
Curious about a group capable of creating such a
refined widget, I clicked on a link leading to their
site, galacticaa.net I liked the first
thing I saw, (being an apple fan) an ipod. but
at some point I must have scrolled down a bit,
for at some point I caught the shiny tip of
something in the image in the post below the
first. I did what can be best described as a
double-take, for when I scrolled down to see....
there it was! ZOMG! It's my widget! they're
talking about MY widget! This is fantastic! I'm
overwhelmed! I feel like a celebrity! they even
refer to TastyBuffalo! hehehe... This has been a
fun moment for me. If you don't believe me,
check the site or the screenie below.
Thanks a lot guys for your support! and thanks.... Greg Perkins!

Blade: The Series 2

Just wanted to let you all know, as I did cover the
pilot of the series, that the pilot episode I
mentioned as being free, is no longer so. It now
seems to apear as two seperate episodes. as another
note, there are two more episodes in addition to the
pilot episodes. So, whereas it was once just one free
episodes, it is now 4 episodes at $2/ea.

Just some quick notes on the status of the CylonBum
widget.
Also, if you're wondering where everything went from last month, they've all been moved over to the archive section to the left.... Labeled Jun 2006. That's where all the entries go every month.
