Rant #081 Wednesday, December 8, 2004

I'd like to take a moment to do a bit of promotion. July For Kings , the band my brother plays the drums for, is releasing their new album "Nostalgia", and their first single is currently in the top 20 Here . Please vote for them.

I still haven't updated for this week yet. ?_?

I have part of page 101 drawn already, but Friday I was out of the studio all day... needless to say I got nothing more done on the page. Saturday, I'm going to finish it up. Sorry about the delay.... but you're probably used to it by now.

I just finished doing my Christmas shopping - all online this year! Now it's a matter of waiting and hoping that all the packages get here on time. Wrapping gifts is not one of my strong skills.

If there's one thing I try to avoid - it's crowded malls. A year or two ago, it would have been fun to brave the crowds and such, but anymore that doesn't sound quite so appealing.

Using Flash with PHP and MySQL - that's the next big challenge. The next version of this site will feature flash-based pages... but this will be in addition, not replacing, what's currently here.
