June 30th, 2007

are over here!!! go look!

and yes.. i did buy something at BOTH apple stores in milwaukee.. and yes… i know that means i’m a nerd. but i’m ok with that. -)

i should have brought a longer extention chord…

June 29th, 2007

so the line starts outside… which is sad.. since i wanted to blog from the line for the iphone… but i doubt if the wireless will reach that far. so i’m in the apple store right now… they have blocked off several ROWS of the parking lot for this line… and it’s already got a good handful of people in it. so i should go join them soon…

don’t worry.. i brought my camera… i’ll post pictures later -D

apple geek dilemma…

June 26th, 2007

alright. i have a major dilemma on my hands here! the iphone comes out on friday at 6pm. i plan to get to work SUPER early so i can leave SUPER early and go stand/sit in line at the apple store.

but now i learn that there will be TWO apple stores by that time! apple store mayfair and the new bayshore apple store will be having it’s grand opening at the same time as the debut of the iphone!

so now here’s the dilemma: should i go to mayfair to get my iphone or to bayshore? mayfair is closer to work.. so i would get in line earlier. but if i go to bayshore.. i would have the chance of getting a free tshirt as well! AHHHHH!!!1 !! why must apple do this to me!?!?!

<!– warning… nerdy post ahead –>

when i designed everymoment.org, i decided to make my life less stressful and design my page for the latest standards compliant browsers…. and NOT try to “hack” my page for internet explorer 6 (and earlier) visitors. i figured.. if you are using that out-of-date of a browser.. you don’t deserve to see my site design.

i know…. a bit 1337 of me… but i didn’t care.

well today i found an EASY hack so that ie 5.5 and greater will show my transparent .png’s

but seriously folks… if you are browsing the internet with ie 6 or less you should stop that. stop it now! your browser is out of date, buggy, and NOT SECURE! go download this or this RIGHT AWAY!!! (and yes.. i AM shouting. i cannot express how INSANELY ANNOYING it is to have to design a website.. and then have to BREAK the page so that it will work on internet explorer! please.. for the sanity of all web designers out there…)

You Are 20% Left Brained, 80% Right Brained


The left side of your brain controls verbal ability, attention to detail, and reasoning.
Left brained people are good at communication and persuading others.
If you’re left brained, you are likely good at math and logic.
Your left brain prefers dogs, reading, and quiet.

The right side of your brain is all about creativity and flexibility.
Daring and intuitive, right brained people see the world in their unique way.
If you’re right brained, you likely have a talent for creative writing and art.
Your right brain prefers day dreaming, philosophy, and sports.

speaking of right brainded things… i re-designed metafourjazz.com… go look.

and now.. i’m going to bed. -)
