Streaming Music

I added a feature that allows for streaming music. I’ve got a list of some of my favorite songs. I’ll be updating it as time goes by. Feel free to let me know what you think.

Special thanks to Nate (garbunzl) for hooking me up with some great php code!

Self Evaluations

I’m taking a break from filling out a personal evaluation for my 1 year (really 1.25 year) evaluation.

This is not an area I excel in. I’m not saying that I don’t do a good job, because truth be told, I do a great job. But it’s proclaiming such thing that makes me feel uncomfortable. Just writing the sentence before last makes me feel like I’m in full swagger mode.

Ready to go live

I’ve got one more slight fix on the main blog and then I’ll be ready to go live. Following the game of softball set for this afternoon I’ll send out the e-mail announcing the site’s existence.

Some upgrades

I’m edging closer to taking this thing live & sending out emails to friends & family about it. I put in a hack for the skin you see on my blog that only allows registered users to post comments. I’ve been trying to write a similar hack for the family blog but keep running into problems…

I’m also looking for a plugin or a hack that’ll allow me to put a poll in the blogs.

Mr. T – Extreme Makeover

This article features one of the greatest quotes of all time:

“Yes, I am qualified to beat people up.”

Superb. I want to find out how I can become qualified to beat people up. Wearing copious amounts of gold isn’t enough. I’m thinking there’s a test. You’d have to be able to take on at least three stock bad guys (not ninjas) at once. During the course of the fight you’d receive bonus points for smashing two people’s heads together. If you prove able to lift an attacker over your head and hurl them into some sort of breakable object (like say a wetbar or a table) then you pass instantly.

Is there anyway you would omit that you reached “beat people up” qualification from your resume? At that point they’d be too scared *not* to hire you.
