It’s christmas time. I remember the christmas eve’s when i was younger and would toss and turn all night and then wake up at 6 o’clock and sneak downstairs to look at presents. Now i’m up at 1:30 and everyone else is in bed, i’ll have to head off soon. I won’t be able to sleep in until 12 tomorrow. New layout is up, with most of the bugs ironed out. It probably doesn’t work properly in netscape and the fonts probably look too small on a mac. Bloody compliance issues. To bed, to bed.

It seems all the hot-ticket items for this year’s christmas are from japan. We have the sony playstation 2 and the final resting place of christ. His tomb is actually located in shingo, japan.

This map, by the people at nasa is pretty amazing. It shows the entire world at night with all the lights showing. All the cities at night.

Football in the snow is fun. You warm up fast enough with all the clothing on, it just doesn’t seem as cold. Except for those times when you’re not wearing your mitts and end up in the snow or you get it in your boot. We couldn’t play tackle, there was only 6 inches of snow and it was powder, with a nice frozen ground to land on. You end up on the ground enough times without playing tackle. After you’re all finished up, you realize that you’re pretty wet and pretty cold. Awhile after that you also discover that you’re pretty sore. I’m working on a new site design, not exactly sure when it will be up though. A fairly simple one again, using html to try and make things look good.

I watched Princess Mononoke last night. I think this was the first time that i’d ever say through an entire japanese animated movie. I was surprised, it’s not like a disney animated pic. Actually, the animation was pretty amazing. And there were these little things that looked like the pilsbury doughboy, that made the movie.

A vapochill case that’ll make your system’s inards very cool. Overclock that beast.

An article entitled beer, school and multiplayer gaming. It sounds too familiar.

Some new software releases today, we have a new version of napster out (beta 8), personally i liked somewhere around beta 2-4 the best, i’ve found the recent ones to be kind of shitty. Also have Seti@home ver 3 out, i haven’t used this since 1. something. It’s good to test out how well your computer functions at full processor load.

It will now cost money to use scour. Wow, there’s a really smart business model if I ever saw one! People used scour because they could get movies, music and games for free. Now if they build in copyright management, if that’s even possible. Why would anyone want to pay for a service where they can only trade stuff that’s not copyrighted? Hey, do you want to download my family pictures or that short stort my nephew wrote? That’s what email and instant messaging is for, I can’t see this plan lasting.

Been sifting through some of my old bookmarks at home, found goatee style again. Ryan redesigned at some point, don’t know when but it looks pretty slick all the same.
