Moving Hardware

This weekend, Justin, Ben and I will be making some big global changes across all of the Emmis websites. Since our connection is so crappy at work, we decided to relocate this weekend at Justin’s house, and use his cable modem. Seriously – work speed is THAT shitty. So… Justin and I pack up his…

You Are Beautiful

On the walk to the Blue Line this morning, I came across another one of those "You are beautiful" signs that I found a few weeks back. I like the idea of communicating through these little stickers, especially since there’s not any tangible product that’s being hawked. I’ll be so pissed if this is some…

Ben Raises the Bar

SWEET BEAUTIFUL JEBUS! Oh, maaaaan this thing is nice. Ben was telling us about the chess set he made, a few years back. This ltitle beaut has been tucked away for the past three years. Can you believe that?!?! Ben hand-made each piece, and did a fair amount of research into the origin of the…

Intervew

A few days back, a friend of Justin and Dave’s e-mailed me, saying that she and her classmates were doing some sort of study for school. Something about learning (I don’t have the e-mail here at home). Two classmates in particular were looking for people who use Flash, both users who are new to the…

Chess

A while back, when MoonDragon visited, she gave me a great gift as a "thank you" for letting her crash here. Well, I broke down and brought it in to work. I’ve been playing for a few days now, sort of a "me versus the rest of the company" type of game. Anyone who walks…

Half a Song

You can hum it, sans words, the garbled tune with someone loving someone more, or not enough. Learn the words.

Warmth

Thinking of you I think: lost skiers, half-buried in snow. They sip whiskey, even though they know better.

Tomorrow People

So all of a sudden Speccy PM’s me, and somehow The Tomorrow People come up. This was an old show that I used to watch as a wee one, on Nickelodeon. Something about a newer species of humans, they could teleport at will… with these belts. On looking over the pictures, everything was incredibly low…

We’re Here Again!

Oh man o man o man. Yeah, baby! After quite the absence, www.were-here.com is back online! Dayam! People are posting like crazy in Just Converastion, and nerdy me… I never took WH off as my homepage. Earlier, as I was opening a new IE window, I thought "Gee, maybe I should wait and see if…

Issues

My ISP is, apparently, experiencing some serious technical difficulties. Again. Their servers were acting up a bit while I was in Alabama, and now this. Ah well, it’s not life or death for me here. Just my little blog. But I can’t update, or get e-mail or anything – we’ll see if things change this…
