New Office

Looks like I may have found a new office for Heather and me to do web work. It is just perfect...One room...110 sq ft with a window and on the beach in a very nice condo building. The owner is not using it and for now it will be a swap for some web help. That certainly works for me.

I may have to pay some rent in the future, but we'll work that out. The owner is not greedy. The office already has computer desks and a DSL line, filing cabinets, wastebasket, etc...it has not been used since Hurricane Ivan.

I will get the key on Monday and ck out what I need to do over there.

Heather is just working two days a week for 4 hrs each day but is considering taking a break in July when she finishes her 2 yr degree program in computer science before she starts the 4 yr college in P'cola and work full time for a semester. If I have addition building construction going on here, this little office will be so great. Hope it all works out as it should.

Color Change Paint Job

I spotted another car with one of those awesome paint jobs that change colors are you drive past.

What is it called ? What's it cost. Where do you go to get it ?

Class distinctions and social networking sites

Interesting read: An excerpt: A month ago, the military banned MySpace but not Facebook. This was a very interesting move because the division in the military reflects the division in high schools. Soldiers are on MySpace; officers are on Facebook. Facebook is extremely popular in the military, but it's not the SNS of choice for 18-year old soldiers, a group that is primarily from poorer, less educated communities. They are using MySpace. The officers, many of whom have already received college training, are using Facebook. The military ban appears to replicate the class divisions that exist throughout the military. I can't help but wonder if the reason for this goes beyond the purported concerns that those in the military are leaking information or spending too much time online or soaking up too much bandwidth with their MySpace usage.

Web Slang

Today I ran across a term that i didnt know (YOU probably DO), "420 friendly" ....but thanks to the remarkable internet, one can do a search and become enlightened immediately. The term "420" and its attendant traditions date back to the 1970s, but at least some evidence exists -- enough to convince any stoner, at least -- that the term has experienced something of a resurgence in our electronic times. On message boards and community sites across the Web, it's possible to find people who are "420 friendly," meaning that they'd love to meet you and smoke your dope.
