Checking my Yahoo! stock on E*Trade is, more often than not, become a depressing experience…

I know the stock will rise in value eventually… but seeing it now at a little over $23 US, I find myself smacking my head, wishing I’d sold some when it was worth $250 per share last year.

Proof that I’m not your typical testosterone laden male:

WWFE launched its XFL promotion a few weeks ago. I watched part of the first game, but then it hit me: no matter the rule changes, it was still just a football game – and I’m very bored by football.

This isn’t to say that I didn’t oggle [...]

Today’s work on the Flash site for work proved to be very frustrating. Few of the things I tried to fix worked… and tomorrow I’m scheduled to demonstrate the site to my co-workers! Lovely.

Meanwhile, this current contract ends next Friday, March 2nd. The director is trying to get another grant that would give me 18 [...]

Compu$erve has yet again allowed corporate greed to ruin a good service…

The message forums have been available on the Web for close to a year now. As you exit, a page for ‘My Compuserve’ comes up, since we are members.

The problem is: whenever you click a link on that page, you get redirected to one [...]

With recent events in the US, this Canadian has to play a game of “armchair political analyst”. Ignore at your own choice.

President G.W. Bush, in his first month in office: first, he’s pushing for tax cuts. Then, he orders another air strike in Iraq.

I don’t know about you, dear readers… but I first had a [...]

I tried to get more done on the Website I was commissioned to work on today. The chatroom still isn’t working…

As I’ve edited all the codes properly, it’s a given that the server folks still haven’t worked out the kinks in Perl.

Yesterday was annoying for me: while trying to take some trash outside for garbage pickup, I took a major spill on the upper stairs in my building. Good thing it wasn’t the landing to my apartment… I probably wouldn’t be here to gripe about it!

It’s still frustrating to me. I’ve now fallen twice in a [...]

Monday February 12th marked a sad day for us writers. I just got to reading the email I downloaded today and learned the news:

I’ve been a subscriber to the Inklings newsletter for years now. It was an excellent resource for writers, highlighting markets, news, and offering a lot of advice.

The newsletter and its website are [...]

I’m finishing up my lunch break at the office right now…

I’ve been fixing up errors on the Web site. Far as I know, this contract ends on March 2nd. Maybe it will be renewed, maybe not. Either way, I won’t worry as I did the last time… stay optimistic, but realistic as well.

Happy Greeting Card Day to those who celebrate it!…

Happy Greeting Card Day to those who celebrate it! Okay… it’s called Valentine’s Day… but for folks like me – uninvolved – it’s a sucky holiday, no matter what it’s called.

This was a frustrating day for me… I’m commissioned to do some work on a website, we set today as a target date… only few [...]
