It’s All Gone!

Man, I found a job on Craigslist that I wanted to apply for--you need to provide a URL to an online portfolio. No problem, thinks I. I made one in web class. It's flash. It'll be cool.

<panic>I CAN'T FIND IT!!!</panic>

That so totally sucks. I'm sure it's on my computer somewhere. I didn't copy over any of the data drives when I upgraded. I thought I had a cd backup of it, but I can't find that, either. So, I get to start over for now and hope I can apply before they hire someone. Unfortunately, it won't be flash. I don't have flash here at work. DAMN IT!

Oh, well...better get started on it.

Font Humor

Just found this cute poem while font-searching:
ODE TO SPELL CHECKERS

Eye halve a spelling checker
It came with my pea sea
It plainly marks four my revue
Miss steaks eye kin knot sea.

Eye strike a key and type a word
And weight four it two say
Weather eye am wrong oar write
It shows me strait a weigh.

As soon as a mist ache is maid
It nose bee fore two long
And eye can put the error rite
Its rare lea ever wrong.

Eye have run this poem threw it
I am shore your pleased two no
Its letter perfect awl the weigh
My checker tolled me sew.

One New Wishlist Item

BTW, I really want one of the new iPod Nanos (preferably one of the 4GB black ones). I'm sure I'll have to make myself wait awhile, though, as I really need to get some other things to get the business going. Maybe by Christmas or maybe when the storage is bigger.

Oh, and today's Joy of Tech was about the demise of the iPod mini. Go check it out—totally cracked me up!

iSight Solution

Since Marcus moved our computers around, the iSight's cable will no longer reach from the case to the monitor. I've never liked the way the darned thing sits on my monitor and it's always falling down. I don't want to tape the stand to the monitor because I don't like the angle it's at, anyway. While searching for a longer firewire cable (it has to be one of those thin Apple ones) or some kind of extender, I found SightFlex. This is perfect! Now I just need to find somebody with one in stock. The site I linked to is out indefinitely. If I can find one, maybe I'll actually be on my iSight more often. Too cool! I wish I could come up with some neat device like that.
