Well, thats it.

Spencer, my roommate has gone off the deep end. If you know spencer at all or you are a girl, you should definitely click the second link. Congrats dude.
Ok, now the top bar rotates images randomly. There are only two at the moment, but I plan on adding 1 or 2 for every major trip I make in the future. Thats my theory anyway. I'm not sure if you'll see multiple images by refreshing as the changes are in the css file, and some browsers might cache those even when you refresh the page. Opera doesn't and my test with IE shows that it doesnt either.

Anyway, if you can't see the photos:

Ok, I finally redesigned the site. Those who've seen one of my old InfiniteVoid designs know that I really like that butterfly, so I felt compelled to gimp it some more. I'm just hoping that the whole thing hasn't ended up looking too feminine. Butterfly's and red shadows. Not that I'd change it anyway, I like how it looks.

Ok, for all of you who always wanted to know what my place looked like, I took some photos:

The drillfield on campus between class changes
Its actually at the end of class changes, the traffic has started to die down a good bit.

The good old duckpond
Unfortunately, this thing is on the far side of the campus, and I hardly ever see it. I just went there to play w/ my new camera.

Torgerson
Taken from a dirty window of the 5.5th floor of McBryde

Spencer
Only one of my roommates would allow a photo to be taken.

Main room
This is my apartments' living room and a diagram of the cool gadgets for whomever can't tell.

backside
This is the backside of the coffee table you see in the previous photo.

Ethernet
Critical Infrastructure

Art
We don't really have much art, so we hang other things on the wall instead. It actually looks pretty good, although the flash reflected too much and I was too lazy to try and do something about that.

My room
Note the computer setup and the various animals. Also note which monitor is in use and which isn't.

This just looked so cool, I had to steal it. Found on fark.com.

Man, tonight I had a great time. I'll let you all in on more details as I feel fit.

Pretty cool. I just talked to Joe, Kevin, and Sallie. Looks like in addition to prague, we are planning on making side trips to both vienna and berlin. And there is a possibility of a half day in london or paris, depending on how the flight schedule works out. Man, I really want this camera for the trips. Maybe I'll live out of McBryde for a couple months to save up and buy it.

Pinch me. I just won the regional ACM programming competition - all the middle US atlantic coast states, my team was #1. Of course, that means I go to internationals in prague, but I'm just happy about winning really. So of course I'm a bit drunk. Also had my first cigar ever (although smoking is no real stranger to me I guess). The team and I thought it would be rather appropriate for celebration. The funny thing was that most people had no clue how to get the damn thing lit. Took me a couple tries. And then we told joe to howl at the ecplising moon. Let me just say that he does a very good, very load, chicken impression. Man, I couldn't have had a better day. Well, it would have been tough at least.

Apparently Tag-Board has surpassed the Greenville News in traffic. Of course, I don't really think that Alexa is counting the board's themselves being in iframes in all, so we are probably significantly beyond that.
