My DNS finally switched over to my host’s DNS so now everyone is talking.
I’m in the deep process now of putting together a comprehensive website with lots of bells and whistles and pics and vids and whatnot. It’s sort of been a fantasy of mine for awhile.. but the goal is simply to have 1 [...]

Right now I’m pulling a midnight– balls out– don’t know if it’ll work or not move.
I’ve given up on trying to fix some major errors that reside in my new linux machine. If it wasn’t clear before… it is now. Ubuntu doesn’t like you switching up the home directories on it.
So where I’m at now [...]

here’s my current style that I’m rolling with.J’s current snapshot
As you can see I’m rolling with a “#4″ 1/2 buzzcut up top. I’ve put on the hoody (zipdown) nearly permanently now. Finally my theme has often been ‘dark’ colors… (just because– it don’t mean anything)

But the big revelation was that Uwaji’s now has Qoo, a soft drink in Japan that I became very attached too. Sometimes to the despair of my [...]

Let me set the stage since I think it’s quite funny in a way..
It’s just past midnight right now and I have Ella Fitzgerald queue’d in my winamp playlist..
I have word up and I’m trying to type out my JET Application’s “Statement of Purpose” essay while keeping it within the format (2 pgs, double space, [...]

If Politics were religion, and America was my denomination, it’s more likely then not that I would be agnostic by now. The bottom line is no one is happy or can become happy by the recent surge of bad news, unless of course you are happy in which case– You don’t count.

First you made it to October! It might not sound like much, but it’s enough. Sometimes I wonder with each weather change.. if one season will treat me as fair as the other… But. Enough about that….
Lately I’ve had a number of waves hit me.. These waves are often mental escapes that allow me to [...]
