Sunday, September 14th, 2008 -- Back in business! After some IP address confusion with the shared server my site's on, a few changed passwords I hadn't heard about, and a gripping, edge-of-your-seat FTP file permissions drama, this place is up and running as it's supposed to. That is to say, nothing's happened as far as any of you are concerned, and I have no interesting news. Except, of course, that the Youtube links on the Movies page were broken (reuploaded the videos, never updated this site) and have been replaced. This time, I've joined the twenty-first century and embedded them in the page (view them on Youtube if you want the high quality versions).

Anyway, the server issues--or "The Troubles", as I've taken to calling them--were quite trying, and I'm happy to report that the staff at CI Host/Hosting Support were nothing but help. Thanks to Ryan, John, Daniel, Alex, Josh, Chris, Ian, and Bill for spending so much time on all this.

Took an awful lot of work to get some dipstick's worthless homepage back online, and I can't imagine they get paid enough to put up with the likes of me all day.


Tuesday, June 10th, 2008 -- Ow. Had a garage sale this past weekend, got to sit outside in the sun all day. Wee! Really, it's good for my skin, to get burnt to a crisp every now and again. My face and arms still hurt. Skin cancer, here I come!

In less life threatening news, I've been playing Audiosurf since it was released on Steam, and have only just done something worth showing anyone. Check me out playing "Come On" by Andy Hunter.

This, it seems, is my life. Jealous?


Wednesday, March 12th, 2008 -- Listen up, you miserable bums! I'm on YouTube. Yeah, I spell it with the capital T. Deal with it. Now go check out my stupid movies.


Wednesday, August 8th, 2007 -- So there was a friggin' tornado in Brooklyn today. An EF 2, or some nonsense. Whatever, I just have some stuff to show off. Do your standard right click and save here, the files are pretty big ('specially that last video). Left 'em full quality so's you could get the full effect.

We noticed some heavy rain on the LIE on the way in. Harmless enough, and it looked pretty damned cool rainin' sideways.

Eventually, after reaching a dead stop, and heading back up the on ramp to the service road, we reached the root of the problem. I think the owner might need new upholstery.

Of course, some people had no trouble at all, and just rolled right on through.

You like that? It's like the links are right there, in the middle of the sentence! Obnoxious, I know, I'll stop now. There are more pictures and a bit more video, but nothing really worth uploading. There was also a video of the ride in, with all sorts of rain and oddly silent lightning, but at five and a half minutes and over seventy megabytes, I don't think anyone'd be interested. Let me know if you really want it, I can always stick it up for a while.


Saturday, May 12th, 2007 -- Man, I'm on fire with these updates! Now if only I had something worthwhile to say.

Wanted to throw up a link to some more Half-Life 2 crap of mine, a basic physically simulated train: simtrainstest.zip

Since it's almost six thirty in the morning, and I didn't get any sleep last night, I ain't typin' anything else here. Details are in the readme, anyway, so close your cram hole and deal with it.


Wednesday, May 9th, 2007 -- Always important to put that year in there, or future generations might forget when I spoke my most compelling words. I almost want to say it looks dumb, but I save old versions of this page; the year is there for my benefit.

Just wanted to throw up a little note, ever since I mentioned my map on Something Awful, I've had a few people grab Ninchairs, even though it's not mentioned or linked anywhere on this site anymore. I mean, it wasn't, before I typed that. Don't know how you Internet Detectives found it, but nice work. Those of you who haven't downloaded it can save yourselves the time. Just wanted to explain myself to those initial six people.

The movie is my first, and was clearly never finished. Shot back in 2003, a friend was back home from college for a little while, I wanted to get something done while I had the chance. Inspired by Star Wars Kid, we worked this up in a few minutes, shot it on the fly. Unfortunately, my Beachtek's switch was accidentally set to Line when it should've been Mic; without any useable location audio, I needed to use sound effects, which I never got around to adding. No music, either. It's horrible, but it was fun to shoot.

Sorry you guys waited through the download, even as small as it is, to watch that.
