    How f’d up is this?

    My mom and dad, while in their early 20’s would come home, sit on the couch, and watch Star Trek.

    Brandy and I are in our early 20’s. We’ll sit on the couch together and watch Star Trek.

    There’s about a 30 year age difference between my parents and I. Timeless, yo.

  • Beat Down in da Chateau

    For the love of God, make it stop. I just can’t quit listening to this song…

    Matrix: Reloaded Soundtrack – Disk 2 – Rob Dougan – Chateau

    I’m gonna have to see the movie again this weekend. Either that, or just go piss some French cartel program dude off and have his goonies attack me a room full of medieval weapons in which case I can promptly proceed to put the smack down while still looking smooth in ma Gucci.

  • Level Messaging System

    This is an olllllld topic, but I’ve yet to see many application developers or Flasherz or whatever the heck peeps are actually write much up on this. Maybe because my expectations are for people to use more wordage than is necessarey to communicate a concept… like me for instance. Regardless, I’ve yet to hear about effective ways people are using levels. To me, they do not facilitate good OOP application design, and since most of my work has focused around that, I haven’t had the chance to take advantage of the new feature implemented partially because of them: _global.

    That changed this weekend as I got a CD-ROM project, and the only way to complete it on time was using levels. I’ll talk about why I used them, and how I developed a simple messaging system to talk between them.

  • No More CD-ROM Projects

    I lost 4 pounds in a week! Screw that yo, I’m still over 20lbs short of my 175 goal. I think I’ll stick to writing, Flash intro’s, and small components projects for the next while.
