you might think pasadena could think of a better name for a park than “central park.” you would be wrong.

“too white to be here”

available: one free ticket to “star trek: the experience™” at the las vegas hilton. just tell me where to mail it. expires next november. (this was the speaker gift at the last apachecon which i failed to use while i was there, and am unlikely to otherwise make any effort to use.)

update: this is no longer available.

after a one-year hiatus, i crunched the logs for this site and blo.gs. the first result was shutting down the javascript-based favorites lists for a couple of people that accounted for 50% of the blo.gs bandwidth usage.

the second result will be moving the scraped rss feeds to another domain and converting them to atom. i haven’t come up with a suitably clever domain name yet.

other than that, the stats weren’t that interesting.

i’ve got a whole binder full of awards from elementary and junior high school. most of them are actually from various academic competitions, but this one was for being a member of the school patrol. some sort of bus monitor thing, if i remember correctly. there’s trophies and plaques, too. (no, don’t send them to me!)
