Apparently, my administrators have taken time out of their busy day administering my site to inform may that some clever monkey may be sending me viruses.

I’ve spent most of the last day or two plugging away at my presentation for the final project. I have Go-Moku on the brain, it is oozing out. That is all.

We just finished up issue number 25 at golden words. Wow, it’s hard to believe that it’s been a year. Thanks to everyone who was a part of it this time around. Still have transitition issue next week, but the management of content creation is now out of my control.

I was feeling the need to make something in photoshop tonight, and was trying to avoid doing work on my CISC499 presentation, so I made some new wallpaper. I present you with two wonderful versions: glorious 1280×960 and magnificent 1024×768. Enjoy.

I made the image with a bunch of brushes and fonts from misprintedtype.com. Check it.

From an article about open-source software in government — China on open source software:

Countries such as China have concerns about the closed nature of a proprietary product such as Windows, and the national security risk this creates. They want greater transparency, and at the same time believe that embracing open source will spur local software development.

Maybe it’s just me, but I think China complaining about the “closed” nature of something is pretty funny.

Ohio woman gives birth to six babies in one minute:

“The speed at which the babies came out was overwhelming. It was like a popcorn popper,” the baby’s grinning father, Keith Hanselman, told reporters.

He’s also quoted as saying, “Crunchy, a little boney though,” after dipping one of the babies in melted butter and trying it out.
