finally I see the throbbing aesterics...glowing like a bad hangover - nice!
techno coming down from a sugar/caffeine high, I think i'll buy a pack of fags and work some sexy tonight (3 projects 3 days...can be done)
I would like those red asterisks except they're on none of my threads. Rightly so, but still... I feel left out.
techno, why is it deadlines always fall on one day? I always like the day after all those deadlines when you feel calm and content yet still there is that feeling of unease because there is absolutely nothing to do all of a sudden.
She Fell In Love With A Mdler (sung to Wilco's Heavy Metal Drummer)
Oh I sincerely miss those archinect threads
I used to like to read and comment on last summer.
She fell in love with the Mdler
She fell in love with the Mdler
She fell in love
A lot of threads hijacked as they talk to one another
i expected so much more, but i just want to smother.
She fell in love with the mdler
Another then another
She fell in love
I miss the intelligence I've known
Posting GarwondLer beautiful and stoned
Turn off my computer and maybe read a book
Drink some red wine, and maybe get a life.
Classical music no reason to go online.

I think I'll just get stoned.
thanks phil... I'm callin it an early night to start fresh tomorrow. Pondering doing sketch designs before seeing the site - the shock and horror I know.
thanks for the link, lb. i would've missed that one and it's a good one. geoff is brilliant and honest and ... thinking! not just commenting/reacting (like this) but focusing on a question, on what bugs him about it, and making some creative/synthetic leaps that get him somewhere.
I have a slight problem.....see, I know that I am going to grad school in the fall but my coworkers do not......so I'm becoming a bit more brazen at work....I've always been one to speak my mind, but my filter is slowly eroding.
Anyway, I just put an older coworker in their place. They have less experience than me so somebody had to. I basically had to say, "if we followed the code the way that you are saying we should, we wouldn't be able to build anything, ever. It's fine, leave it alone." And I walked away. You might as well have added "you idiot" to the end of that sentence, because that's how it came out....
dubK, i think it's great that you speak your mind, and in this case held your ground brazenly. don't feel bad, so long as you are a generally kind person (as you seem to be) it's fine to hold your positions strongly and shoot down idiots when needed.
tumbles- if it weren't locked up there, I wouldn't have ever clicked on it. Putting it at the top at least lets people know that it's the administration doing it, and not another thread created *by* you two.
My office seems to be on 'implode' mode as well. Two of our project managers are getting married and going on a month-long honeymoon. A couple months ago we lost our CAD administrator and a junior level person, a couple of weeks ago our receptionist, in june we lose a mid-level person, in september I'm leaving. This feels like a lot of turnover for a 15 person firm.
another note, going to see Bright Eyes in London this July...I know it's a ways away, but he has two shows in a row, and I think they may already be sold out (other affiliated sites with the venue already state that he is). After the conversion from £ to $, the ticket price was a bit high, but oh well, IT'S BRIGHT EYES!
Off to Edinburgh in a few hours, exciting times. lb, I'll leave it in good shape for you. I'll be sure to post pictures.
Which reminds me, I spent the last 2 days imbedding flash code into my site (never used flash before) so that my pictures would work with in the overall context. If you guys wouldn't mind taking a look and letting me know what you think (AndrewTRoberts). Just click photography or trips. The trips only has 2 from 2007 (Venice and Milan) which many of you may have seen already, I'm slowly getting up all my trips for view. Interested in how you guys perceive the new flash format within the html design.
My scalp is uncontrollably twitching again, I must be stressed.
tumb- take an active role in your thread! go in there and defend your actions, apologize, whatever you feel is appropriate. You are still a member of this community and your vote counts as much as any....
cold? you mean in reference to my twitching? It was rather warm today, and work is stressing me out plus the knowledge of having to get up at 2am to catch my flight.
yeah SBD, I seem to remember from pictures that your scalp has significantly less protection from the elements than many. Maybe I thought cold because its been snowing here all morning.
I identify myself as a Christian, yet it actually embarrasses me to admit I am a resident of a state with this license plate:
Recently approved by the legislature and now being seen on cars all over the city. To subdue the rage I feel when I see one of these plates (rage that arises because they spent weeks and weeks debating this plate and there are so many more important issues for elected officials to be dealing with: for example, one child a WEEK dies in Indiana as a result of abuse or neglect. So if they argued this plate for three weeks, what did they do in that time to make legislation that could have saved those three children? Nothing. Fucking scumbag politicians oops here comes that rage boiling up again let me end this digression...) ...to subdue my rage I've been sort of cataloging what lousy drivers the bearers of these plates tend to be.
Did God tell that woman to pull out right in front of me then run a stop sign without signaling this morning? Or did she just trust that God would protect her (and screw the God-plate-less heathens who might get hurt by his actions) while she did it?
I'm growing to really despise Indiana. My days here may be numbered.

One of the barristas at my local cafe was given a car by her parents, it had that plate on it. A few days later the text was mysteriously covered up with black electrical tape...
And continuing the banning lore, our beloved john devlin was also banned. This was sad, as he brought so much love and connection to the site. I don't think vado and I would have met if not for john devlin starting the 'looks like" thread.
yeah...i think that was december (the 9th?) of 2005 when per posted some kind of animated gif graphics in the thread title and royally jammed up the discussion forums...oh that was funny

a little gem on the design observer Teddy Blanks: Small Potatoes
Bag of Cape Cod Potato Chips and contents: whole potato & soggy, unsalted chips, purchased 4/11/07.
hmm, this link should work better

At least you know the chips are made with real potatoes...
For the urban design/pedestrian street issues fans Geoff has an amazing write-up and dream vision on BLDGBLOG.

I feel a little bit bad.
you'll take one
you'll take one
Wha? Did someone hijack puddles' account?
white elephant gift?
dubK, i think it's great that you speak your mind, and in this case held your ground brazenly. don't feel bad, so long as you are a generally kind person (as you seem to be) it's fine to hold your positions strongly and shoot down idiots when needed.
more power to you!
(greetings from Boston everyone)...
Thanks AP. I actually invited said coworker to come to see Spider-Man 3 with me tonight, and she's coming. Yay for healthy discourse.
How's Boston?
dubk, i'll help the whole "when to tell work" thing and email them right now letting them know you're in grad school.
tumbles- if it weren't locked up there, I wouldn't have ever clicked on it. Putting it at the top at least lets people know that it's the administration doing it, and not another thread created *by* you two.

tumbleweed, I appreciate your many insightful, helpful, and kind comments.
It's a bizarre situation.

hi tumbles!
yes, my friend john devlin was banned. they wrote a song about it.
SBD- maybe it's just cold?
tumb- take an active role in your thread! go in there and defend your actions, apologize, whatever you feel is appropriate. You are still a member of this community and your vote counts as much as any....
cold? you mean in reference to my twitching? It was rather warm today, and work is stressing me out plus the knowledge of having to get up at 2am to catch my flight.
Someone else was banned, too - DJ? DJ Space? I remember a comment about "You will be banned to DJ space".
Ah, archinect lore. I'm such a damn old fart.
yeah SBD, I seem to remember from pictures that your scalp has significantly less protection from the elements than many. Maybe I thought cold because its been snowing here all morning.
A small rant:

don't worry about it lb, you're awesome!
48 votes for another chance + 34 for not ban vs 39 ban votes
so that makes it 82 not ban vs. 39 ban + couple of individual beef.
It is pretty much not ban them.
tumbles, I think you'd get by with it even more easily if you said "thank Raegen". That man is fucking worshipped out here.

theres a lawsuit about that plate. not the god part, but the fact that it doesnt cost anything extra.
shall someone revive a per post?

wait, how was it that John Devlin got banned, but La Torpille Rose (sp?) didn't?
yeah...i think that was december (the 9th?) of 2005 when per posted some kind of animated gif graphics in the thread title and royally jammed up the discussion forums...oh that was funny
liberty change one letter on that plate and you could trust the real me.
