Wow - I stayed late in the office and nearly finished my corrections, but came home. I seemt o have achieved quuite a lot in the hours since …
1) I won the quiz on BBCs 6music - and Im being sent “a random selection of cds”! Top
2)Ive learned an enormous amount about mounting scsi drives, whilst trying to rescue somebody elses machine
3)Ive watched Ice Age - and it made me laugh.
4) Ive also watched Momento (the chronological version) and now I understand the film so much more (I never got the hang of the non-chrono one)
Oh - actually thats it - but it feels like Ive learned an enormous amount!

Well -Ive been planning an overhaul of how [c][w][d] looks - in fact how all of coldclimate looks, so tonight I sat down and wrote some really simple code to make the pages as fast as possible to load. This page doesnt look that special at the moment, but Ill be re-working it over the next few weeks to try and get it to be more “pop-uppy” and clicky. Maybe even some skinning - who knows.
Ive also added a link to my new project The Gentoo Diaries - which Ive been running privatly for a while now - but its time to make them public. Basicaly since I started running Gentoo Ive been keeping a digital notebook in the form of a blog to keep track of all the things Ive done and changes Ive made to stop that “God I did this once - what the hel did I do” feeling I get when Im working with Linux. Joy of learning something new I guess. Alway- I figured it was better to spread the wealth of my mistakes - and hopefuly other people can fix thier broken systems if they broke it in the same way that I did! Ill be starting a Wiki too at somepoint - though not just yet.

[c][w][d] is giving its fully support to Katie Jones of katie.com. Somebody has published a book called katie.com and is demanding that she hand over the domain name that she has owned since 1996!
As good and valid as the book might be you cant just claim the domain name as your own! Fuck off penguin books!
