  • My Dad’s Paris

    Your Friday OT, via my dad.

    My dad (and I) recently lost his dog to old age, a golden retriever named “Sandy”. Naturally, he just bought a new golden retriever puppy. Her name’s “Paris” after <a href=”http://www.maximonline.com/girls_of_maxim/html/girl_998.html”>Paris Hilton</a>.

    He relishes this summer where he can parade her down the Ocean City (Maryland) boardwalk, using her as the ultimate chick magnet. Always da playa, playa.

  • Flashcom Bible: My Chapters Donated to the Community

    I haven’t heard back from Wiley. I told them I’d be releasing this Monday, but figured I’d give them all day. No word.

    The rate of decay and time of usefulness on these chapters is small, so the sooner the community has access to them, the better.

    I’m sorry there wasn’t something I could do to facilitate this book coming out sooner ladies and gents; those minute times I had working with fellow writers & the editors, it was pretty cool, but the communication, from what I heard of others experiences, was a cluster flizz-narge, and it was not to long after the fall of Friends of Ed and friends where publishers were working on obtaining existing projects, so were busier than normal and stretched being their usual thresholds, I’m sure. However, I never heard back on the status of the project, nor got paid, nor got a response to me asking about giving these chapters away today.

    At any rate, hopefully this helps some of you in your Flashcom projects. Here are the 4 chapters I wrote for the vaporware book:

    <a href=”https://www.jessewarden.com/downloads/Flashcom_Bible.zip”>The Flash Communication Server MX Bible</a>

    – Chapter 13: Using Flashcom Server Components
    – Chapter 16: Creating Flash Communication Server Components
    – Chapter 17: Monitoring the Performance of Your Flash Communication Server
    – Chapter 25: Flashcom & Director for Multi-user Gaming Environs
