bucketFountain

I found these on K10K/Kaliber ! Bitchin’.

The redesign is going well, I’ve ‘sketched’ a page in html that has got the look I want, now all I have to do is sit down and start coding. I’m quite excited about it.

Alright! Last day at work. For a month or so anyway. It’s a bit like the last day of school. It was easy getting out of bed this morning, and the day is flying along.

I’m going to use the time off to do a little more exploring of Europe (shopping in France tomorrow, Greece in a couple of weeks), and start the redesign of the site. I hope to have the redesign done in time for the 1st anniversary of bucket_fountain, which is late May. Speaking of birthdays, ben poole marks the anniversary of the start of his blogs today, although I seem to remember that I’ve been reading his articles for longer than a year.

Jeez, I really can’t be arsed working today.

I have been plumbing the depths of my nasal regions in search of ‘Moby Bogie’. I discovered the presence of Moby one evening before bed. For some reason I found myself looking up my nose with a mag-lite. I know that it’s weird, but that’s what happened. Anyway, deep within nose, up between the outcrops of flesh, I could see a through a slit at the top of my nose a large white formation. It was huge. I couldn’t do anything about it and assumed that soon enough it would descend.

Over the next day it played on my mind. I actually thought I could feel it, growing larger and more powerful by the hour. I checked again the following night, and sure enough Moby was still there. I asked Tash if she had any cotton buds. In the absence of those, I tried twisting a piece of toilet paper into a stick so I good try to dislodge the monster. I had no luck and resorted to trying to blow it out. That too failed.

It is still there, and I’m beginning to wonder if it might actually be an infection. What would Freud have thought?

I actually made a change on the site today! It was minor, but a change none the less. When I set up my ‘previously’ links (to your right) I made a hash of the html in the view that builds the panel. I finally got around to fixing it (after the best part of, hmm, 10 months?) and am feeling rather pleased with myself. As to redesigning the site, I’m just no further ahead. Where do the likes of Ben Poole and others find the time?

Dude. Someone sounds like a fool.

In fact – I get a feeling that he’s going to take it off his site soon so I better keep a copy here. Is this the work of a disgruntled employee? Or a rebellious teen?

We know that you’re too busy fighting off your biological urges and being l33t
hax0rs to Get Involved, but politics is cool, m’kay?

Nobody ever seems to do anything for The Kids! All the decisions are made by
suits, man. That’s so lame!!! We know you think of yourselves as responsible
citizens, but what you wanna do is turn that thought into an action, dudes.

Get involved – to the extreme!

The BBC politics for kids/teens site is, like, totally wacked! Ditto for the
Parliament education site, which even has a section for younger yoof. Fanta-stick!

YoungGov is totally the business for having your say, and there are even wicked
Youth Parliament sites for the UK, Scotland and Europe.

(Hey, chill with the anti-Europe vibes already! You totally won’t be able to
wear the word ‘fcuk’ on your shirt anymore if we break our connection with France,
y’dig? ROFFLE!)

So, cut it with the bling bling and do something for the community, man. Join
in and take action with any of the groovy sites we’ve listed, or just drop Tom
a line for a quiet rap by the electronic e-mail. Tom’s well-up on the Interwebnet,
and he won’t harsh your buzz or dis you down the line.

WARNING: Getting involved in politics may cause premature ageing and a sudden
loss of friends.
