Allergies
April 18, 2005Read moreThis has never happened to me before, but I think I’ve actually developed some kind of allergy. Was feeling really crappy toward the end of last week, slept a lot, drank a lot of water. Today I had a tremendous bout of sneezing, which almost never happens. Are other people getting hit by this now that Spring has Sprung?
Sigh.
Update: I guess it is just a cold. Still “Sigh”

April 18, 2005Read moreJust heard from Duncan that Adobe bought Macromedia for 4.3 Billion. Wow. I think that’s good for us as far as interoperability goes. But it sucks from a vendor diversity perspective.

Robert forwarded me a couple links related to McDonalds marketing to Asians Pacific Islander Americans. It’s bizarre. Very Bizarre. I haven’t found an equivalent site for other minorities in the US, but let us take an international tour through the eyes of McDonalds. You can see a list of all the McDonald’s country sites, and travel at will.

The Making of Lauren
April 14, 2005Read more
Wrapping up Spooky Human-Shaped Things Week is The Making of Lauren, a look inside the studio of a mannequin sculptor.
When I was a kid I thought they made them by dipping people in plastic and sawing their limbs off for poseability; I don’t know where the idea came from, but they used to really FREAK ME OUT. In truth, the good ones are fabricated by master figure sculptors like Len Gifford.

WordPress Memory Usage
April 14, 2005Read moreI have been noticing intermittent Internal Server Error messages occuring with WordPress for the past several weeks, and inquired today with my ISP, Pair Networks, about the problem. Apparently, my blog is exceeding the allowed memory allocation for scripts allowed to run on their server. In other words, I’m being a memory hog.
The culprit? I don’t know! So I’m trying a bunch of things in order to be a good shared hosting customer…
