Now that Firefox Download Day has come and gone, it’s time to bring back an old Firefox video:
Twitter Digest…
June 14, 2008 – 3:34 am
Since I have nothing to blog about, I might as well turn fourteen days of tweets to prose.
June 1st, I decide to take a new web design collaboration job while installing Adobe Air Alpha for Linux. Once installed, I tried twhurl and found it sucked, and that Air is not ready for Ubuntu. The next day, I participate in yet another phone party with Justine Ezarik and told her to turn off her iPhone after it violated my ears with the GSM noise. I can hear it now:
>> Cracked.com Jingle: It’s an iPhone etiquette tip from iJustine
>> Justine: Under any circumstance, Never, EVER tell me to turn off my iPhone. EVER.
>> Cracked.com Jingle: iJustiiineee.
Speaking of Justine, what came first, http://hellotxt.com/l/z6IC or http://www.whentwitterisdown.com/? Oh well. They both are wacky in their own ways. Prop 99 and 98 both suck, and so does Phoenity Aura on Firefox for Linux. Hopefully a GTK icon theme might reverse the suckage. After reading an assessment about a Wikipedia article, stating “if this article is to become Featured-class, it needs to be clear that we are tracking her career closely.” I ask myself “Why does it seem that you need to Net-stalk a notable person in order to get the info needed to earn a (G)A-class article on Wikipedia?” I seem to want to build biographical articles much less now. I’ll go back to tech and religion.
You suck at Photoshop is the most twisted collection of Photoshop tutorials ever, but they are useful as well. My friend shows me a pretty accurate pic of Tifa from Final Fantasy VII. She’s pretty hot if you tell me. Kinda like the new Guitar Hero for the DS. I’m definitely getting it when it drops. I’ve Joined the EverWars MMORPG: Play along at: http://hellotxt.com/l/KmsX. Hey, it’s Wii compatible. Life is boring, and nothing really interesting was mentioned on twitter, even tho my brother had a graduation party. Something I forgot to tweet.
I’ve tried twitterphone and I’ll need to learn to vocalize my words better. NKOTB really didn’t have to come back. The weather got crazy, and the weather people haven’t been good at predicting the temps. The blog battle between two people is sad but funny. Just because I use Linux as my primary OS, doesn’t mean I don’t like Microsoft. I find Ubuntu faster, and more organized than Windows. But I still have Windows if I need it.
It’s the return of… No wait, you’re kidding

The Bacud Blog has opened for a sneak peek of my new layout. What do you think. Oh and while on the subject, I too have joined Plurk. A social timeline which I refuse to call a Twitter clone.
No on Prop 98; No on Prop 99.

It’s that time again, to bring Proposition politics back to the table. And luckily the June election only has two similar ballot measures. Both have to do with the ability for the Govt. to force-buy your property. Look online for their explanations. In a nutshell, the creators of 98 royally messed up with the rent control. And prop 99 doesn’t do anything for the people which imminent domain matters to. And besides, they’re both trojan props. They both suck and they both should be voted to hell.

While strolling around Artists’ Alley at the 2008 FanimeCon, I saw this nice pic of Lulu being sold for 10 dollars. I tried to find a better deal. More Fanime bloggin coming soon.

Back again
May 21, 2008 – 8:43 pm
It’s been a long week, most of it without my laptop, as my brother loves using it. However, I got it back with two horizontal lines of screwed up pixels. I’ll have to get it brought into repairs, which means I’ll be computer-less even more this summer.
Speaking of summer, I’m now down to about a day and a 1/2 until my final exam in my server side class. I hate to study, because I’m a sponge, and If I purposely try to soak it, I’ll wring out some other important stuff, so I’m taking what I already know and skimming some of the material that I may have forgotten. Hopefully I’ll pass well. I’ve done so well in that class, unlike my other ones, (other than my XML class, which was a B). My polsci class is epic fail, as I missed at least 12 class meetings, and my SQL class which I dropped, and everybody is planning to go low with.
We’ll do it live!

So this goes to show that Bill O’Reilly’s main reason for being employed by Fox news is that he’s a ranting nutcase who appears to know what he’s talking about, even when it’s mostly just crap.
Catastrophe
May 14, 2008 – 11:48 pm
Today is the first day of an early heat wave, and I’m now sitting in my back yard sitting in my lawn chair, now that I have the computer. Tomorrow is going to be a Spare The Air Day, but there’s not going to be any free rides because of the fuel prices causing people to use mass transit. Besides, I was out here thinking about what would happen if the Hayward fault went off and caused us to use our emergency kits. What would we pack? Many people think that only packing water and food would be enough, but that’s not all. What about shelter and communication?
As we all should know, cell phone networks will be jammed, so it’s best to try to keep them as clear as possible. Not only that, but if there’s no electricity, you are only wasting precious power. It’s best to pack a radio that is crank-charged. News reports and the Emergency Alert System will give as much info as possible. Another thing you’ll need is shelter. Having a small tent in your kit will help a lot, especially if you live in the cold or wet. There are a few other things which are useful such as medications. You will not only need a first aid kit with as much anti bacterial tools as possible, but you should also have most common medications as well.
