It’s the 4th of July weekend. The weekend where every other nation magically goes from July 3rd to July 5th feeling slightly as if their skulls have been ravaged by a million over zealous penny pinchers. While the rest of us enjoy a nice bit of drink illuminated by the smiles of our families and the glow of fireworks in the air. I will be heading up north to enjoy the great outdoors and can only hope for sunshine and clear skies. Looking out my window makes me nervous but it can be comforting. If the weather gets all of this rain out of its system now, then perhaps it will clear up for the weekend.

Ok first update for a while. That book I mentioned, well I am moving slow on it but I have the first half of the outline and the last fourth. Meaning I am missing the third fourth. I hope it will be entertaining and slightly original but I find it so hard to be original in our media soaked culture.

I’ve started playing Battlefield 2, it’s not going so hot because of frequent connection droppage that I find out is not my problem, but rather a problem in the code. Hopefully EA will find it worthwhile to release a patch to fix the known issues.

Right now I am doing one of the coolest things ever. I am using this program called audigy to make custom ring tones for my new phone. The ringtones are mp3 ringtones and I am transferring them over bluetooth. They are playing at a nice 128kbps to conserve space. I would like to know how to decrease that even further if someone knows how to do that in Audigy.

I’m working on a site design for JRCA and hopefully spawning a similar design for shatteredcube from it. I think it really stretches the realm of what I have done. Using completely new colors and design aspects mixed with some of the old. You should be able to see it soon. My biggest problem is what to do with the majority of the page, I just don’t know how to layout the body or tie in the header design.

Well I will bid you goodbye and wish you all a Happy 4th and if you happen to not live in this wonderful but degenerate nation of ours, then we apologize for the fireworks and barbeque that no doubt will be shoved down your gullets.

shatter lots of hot dogs like that asian guy in the hot dog eating contest!
