Pano's is a popular topic

There are 66 entries which invlove the word "Pano." He is really a popular guy I guess. (e:iriesara) said that he is not kosta's cousin as you suggested (e:hodown) . So does anyone know the truth of the matter? In the search right now almost every search query [search] pano[/search] is about Pano it seems.

Sewing Up

So here I am sewing up my avatars crotch area. If you think about it in a most figurative way, it has disturbing implications. Should I sew her up like a barbie doll. I am starting to feel bad about it. I really hate 3D right now. I wish I could just go back to programming and ignore the whole thing.

Speaking of California

I spent lunch with my mom who had made a Thanksgiving meal complete with turkey, stuffing, asparagus, yams, squah, mushroom, etc. Unfortunately, I woke up late so I only had about 20 minutes to eat it and drop her off at the mechanics. As a side note I have a great mechanic. It's "C and K Car Care" on Amherst St. near main St.

Speaking of California, my parents were getting my Dad's car fixed while he was in Malibu, CA for some sort of insurance conference. I also got a call from (e:iriesara) who I hadn't spoken with in a while. She lives in San Diego and called to say that she missed me and that she is thinking about getting married sometime in the future to her boyfriend. I am very happy for her.

She also called to remind me not to vote for Bush, I guess, in case I had slipped off the deep end. I never thought that she and I would ever be separated for so long by so many miles. I hope someday we will finally be close enough to walk to her house again.

Here is a picture thjat sums it all up. I know I posted before but it was last winter. That is my and (e:iriesara) on the left. We were rockstars of social justice back in our days at Kenmore middle. Look how inocent we look - we wern't.

Trash

I need to stop eating at the Korean restaurant at UB. I am making too much trash. For example, here is what Combo #1 looks like when done. Doesn't it remind you of mcDonalds in the 80's with styrofoam everything. Maybe I should just start bringing my own bowl!

Pei-yun Lee

Today's epoetics course was computerless unless you count the computer that ran a video camera and lighting system.

Pei-yun Lee is a tiawanese student in my class. For her performance she projected what appeared to be chinese character onto her body and then wrote them on her clothes as we read a paper based poem aloud. The whole thing was video taped. Most of us looked up at her for a couple seconds at the beginning and then focused on our papers and began reading aloud.

We had assumed that because we couldn't comprehend the characters we could simply ignore them.

The irony of it all was that the characters were really in english just written to look like chinese characters. I will have to get a picture from her next week so you can see.

So the point is that while she was upfront performing, we became absorbed with ourselves and our reading and didn't pay attention when it was actually written in english but with a peculiar outward appearance. This really demonstrates how many foreigners must feel.

Afterward, she mentioned that this is the case and that as an example, when she is at the supermarket and asks for beef, the worker would often respond saying, "what" even though s/he knew what she said. Simply assumming a misunderstanding because she looked foreign.

I remember this cleary when I was in Germany. Although, I could speak quite fluently at the time, people would sometimes not understand because they noticed I was a foreigner and assumed they wouldn't understand me and therfore didn't pay attention.

Ok, I'm off to (e:southernyankee) 's for her and (e:tina)'s birthday.

Sidekick Post

Someone asked about why I posted the sidekick deal in the news journal [inlink]news,506[/inlink].

The site is designed to work perfectly on the sidekick. The sidekick allows users to report on the go including adding pictures to their journal. Other cell phone users can also contribute to the site through their telephones and read the site at elmwoodstrip.com/wap and via email. This journal itself plus the one on the news journal with voice recording was made directly from a sidekick as were hundreds of other entries on the site.

By the way (e:jason), when scanning through the database today, I saw that you asked what phone we are using, and the sidekick is the one. As a commitment to mobile usage on the site, I thought it appropriate to mention that they are down to $24.99 on amazon - a $250 dollar discount.

If other users have interest in mobile features and how to use them check out the (e:info) journal and email me if you have any questions.

Legs and Bones

There is nothing I like less than rigging 3D geometry. It is the most boring, unsatisfying thing I do. I just want to to back to programming right now. :(
