Pandora.com

I was working a little overtime at work the other day, and as the office was empty, I decided I'd like to have some music. The trouble was I didn't really have anything to listen to. I recalled that Isiah would load up music through a website called Pandora, so I booted it up and found out it was part of the Music Genome Project that I heard about from a friend a while back.

Snow?!

The new said it would snow last night. I was up all night, and it didn't snow. It was cold, but no snow. I felt disappointed.

I got up this afternoon (again.. I was up all night) and it was cold but not snowing. The news had said the snow would turn to rain by mid day, and so I gave up and started messing around with the interwebs.

It's snowing right now.

Why am I still online?!

About that Ipod

Hey, remember that Ipod I own that got it's screen smashed in?

Well my recent attempts to update it and backup the music off it... failed.

Damn it.

That mostly sucks.

The past couple weeks mostly suck in fact.

Website Updates

I've gone ahead and set out a new theme. I didn't make it (there is a link in the footer to the guys that did.) It's a nifty theme none the less, and it does a number of things I like. It also comes in blue, which I like on PseudoLife.

SIFF/STIFF films I saw

BlackJaw — Thu, 18 Oct 2007 11:59:14 -0500

Although it was about 3 months ago, I thought I throw togeather a blog entry about the movies I saw during this year's film festival. SIFF is the largest film festival in the US, and 2 or 3 other film festivals run currently with it, making it an amazing season for seeing movies. This year I saw a bunch and I hope I remembered them all.

Note to Self

I need to track this place down: http://www.greenwoodspacetravelsupply.com/

It sounds like a hell of a lot of fun.

A few site updates

BlackJaw — Wed, 25 Apr 2007 02:36:06 -0500

Well I managed to get some things working on this drupal setup that I'm happy about. I managed to get Clean Urls to work (no more ?Q=node bull) then got an auto-pathing module working (no more /node/271) so now the url for content matches what it is. (http://www.pseudolife.com/science-fun)

On a similar note to my last blog: it would seem that this website is top ranked on google searches for "eviscerated torsos". Yes, that does make me happy. (and yes you need to put eviscerated torso in quotes otherwise I'm like 2nd behind Amazon.)

Strange Log

BlackJaw — Thu, 22 Feb 2007 14:29:51 -0600

I turned the full logging system for this website on a few days back, just so I could see what they were like and how few people come looking around here. Among the random data was an odd thing:

Some one visiting here from google... Spanish Google with an English search phrase of "Little Know Facts About Computer."

We are apparently the only listing under that on Google. odd.

New PseudoLife Theme

BlackJaw — Mon, 29 Jan 2007 23:59:47 -0600

Ok, I think I got the themes and templates working correctly now. It's a pain in the but, but it works now. Well, there is still the missing Slogan line on IE (it's hidden behind the logo graphic, but the Z-Index code won't seem to get it to move where it belongs. Heck, it shouldn't be behind the logo to start with.)

Of course this new template I based it off has troubles too. I would be much happier with it if the dang navigation bar was on the left instead of the right.
