August 5, 2001 "so bring no guilt with you up above the flatline let's just hit the sky exploding into one" --Hum
I've been working hard on a side-project called Volition which is an API for managing preferences. It should come in really handy in Spank when I have it read in configuration files. Other than that, I've also been enjoying my recent installation of Linux . I managed to get Evas to work and it is a truely beautiful thing. Hopefully I'll be able to make some sort of big project with it (perhaps a Linux version of Spank assuming I eventually get gevas (the GTK wrapper for Evas) to work). I've also enjoyed using Mozilla 0.9.3 and have even replaced IE 5.5 with it. Also, I've come to realize just how much I enjoy using Window Maker , and I just now noticed that it's web site has been updated!

Work still sucks. I almost wish I had Linux installed so I could play around with Evas , but I'm sure that even if I did I couldn't get it to work. I'm absolutely convinced that CSplitterWnd 's were created by Satan himself! I think I've finally gotten them under control, though, which is a great thing. My GBA is pretty neat. It's one powerful SOB.  The software project is coming along nicely; I'm pretty sure that I can finish it, I just need time. Well, I guess I had better prepare for 30 more hours of hell. G'night.

I added some sweet chrome (just like in my software project) to the pictures page . WORK SUCKS ! Only 10 more hours to go this week, though.

Did I mention that Majora's Mask is a sweet game? I went up to see Dave last weekend and snagged some pictures from him. That's about all I have to say for now.

Those stupid kids would have to take every single Gameboy Advance from every store before I can get one. I ended up buying Majora's Mask for my N64 instead. I'm happy with the decision, considering Majora's Mask is a sweet game and I only have 2 other games for the thing. Zelda games just kick ass. I got a little wacky with my web cam and took a bunch more pictures . I'm still waiting on Dave to scan some more for me. I also posted another screenshot of my project in the software section; that'll probably become a regular thing. Well, I have another 40 hours of suck ahead of me, I had better get ready for it. Really, I think I would like to work 20-hour days and just get it over with in 2 days. I guess I'm one of those misunderstood geniuses.

Damn Wal*mart.  GBA was released today, but Wal*mart won't be getting them until Wednesday. Great...more time to talk myself out of getting one >:(. Evidently, Kevin, my cousin, got accepted to beta test some game (can't remember what it's called, I'll have to ask him). Pretty sweet stuff, I guess. I got thumbnail creation to work and boy did that suck. Don't know what I'm talking about? Didn't think so. You will, eventually, if things go well. I'm thinking about making a few more pages, one on music, one on alcohol, and another with random cool stuff on it (like links). Peace be out. Oh yeah, and before I forget, word to your mother. -- With Love, Michael, Samir, and Peter.

Yup, I did it with FrontPage 2000 this time. Why? I don't know, why not? I'm working on some "top-secret" software , and all I'm going to post about it right now is a simple screenshot.  After I get that ass, Dave, to scan some pictures for me, I'll have some more pictures on my " pictures " page. Oh yeah, and if you haven't gone out and bought Lateralus (Tool 's newest CD), well....WTF? is wrong with you? It's really, really great. I heard this song called "Corrupt" by Karissa Noel a couple of days ago and I can't stop listening to it.
