So Very Over This Phase

After a little over a month, over 1200 photos, a homemade movie, one person violently physically ill after viewing (sorry about that!) and more than a few requests to take the stuff down, I have acquiesced. The quote from my lovely wife probably sums it up best, “Jon, it’s just kind of dumb.”

Point taken.

My iSight camera at work no longer takes photos of me every 15 minutes and uploads the photos to my flickr account.

[Cue sonorous finale and “there was much rejoicing” type music]

I had kind of forgotten about it and knocked it over so it was taking photos like this one:

Yeah, that’s just dumb, people. Even I know that.

Though every now and then I’d remember it was doing its thing every quarter hour and in a panic, go back and peruse the photos in case I’d been doing something socially unacceptable, like you know… booger harvesting… or something.

Thankfully, none of those. But plenty of this:

“Please . . . great gods of Design, don’t let Illustrator crash on this file again.”

I think the last one is particularly ripe for captioning. I’ll start. “The reaction when one first sees the goatse guy” Eww.

So yeah, done with that. Though the coding/geek exercise setting the whole thing up was very fun in a “no wonder I never dated much"-heavy-body-odor-and-Cheet-o-stained-fingers kind of way.

Plus, sometimes a man needs to hoover out his schnozz without the whole intarweb peeking in.

1. Hey, the pics were really fun for the first 2 days!

   Got an easy question for ya, how do I find out how much RAM I can shove (or have shoved in my case) into my iBook?

   That article tells you how much each machine can “hold.”

   That one helps you identify your iBook beast

Holy Crap! Look at all this STUFF down here. It's awesome!

 

Really, I'm glad you made it down here. Almost no one ever comes down here. I'm like in a freaking dungeon down here. I get lonely. But not you. YOU made it all the way to the end of the page. For this I think I've a little crush on you. I don't know, is "love" to strong a word to use in this situation? Well, if it's not "love," then it's very strong "like." I'm totally in like with you for coming down here. You are awesome. Please love me back! I know, I know, I shouldn't be all needy, it's not attractive at all, but you don't know how it is to be stuck down here. Who scrolls all the way to the end of a page anymore these days? Anyway, thanks for shedding some light down here in the depths. I appreciate it. Shoot me an email and I'll send you a dollar, OK?
