Kickapoo kickedamyass

Well, my 2 day weekend was ruined on Friday as I lost my supposed first day off in a month today. I had planned to cram as much travelling as I could in those two days, but I had to cut it to one. So I went to the Kickapoo River and paddled from Ontario, [...]

Oh dear god… it’s coming. While not the best image, it is a bootleg video of what would most likely be the soon to be teaser trailer. I got massive goose bumps watching that lightcycle draw in. Hopefully this won’t be another sequel that destroys your childhood. TR2N

the source of bad blogging on the big sites

I know I’ve ranted before about some of the seriously crappy articles that appear on many big blog sites, wherein out of the 100 posts per day, only 2 or 3 are worthwhile. So it came as a pretty good shock to me to find out that on some of those sites, they get paid [...]

WipEout HD

Ok, there were only 3 things that I was looking forward to with the PS3. Gran Turismo 5, Metal Gear Solid 4, and WipEout HD. 2 of those have come to pass. WHD should be here by now, but it’s not and it was announced last week that it’s been delayed for technical glitches that [...]

How it was done

The goals were: allow users already registered on oharaweb.com to create a fresh install keep the rank based user base of oharaweb.com to allow only those registered with a rank of [...]

Yeah…. So, here we are.  Kick ass new system.  Dynamic creation of new blogs for users on oharaweb.com that have been authorized to use the old system, can now use the new system. So, create away.  A: be logged in.  B: be authorized to make blogs just as before.  C: hit up “blog” in the [...]

idea

Ok, I think what my main issue is dealing with code bugs and keeping up-to-date with the latest necessary web tech. As much as I always wanted to maintain and have created my own site and the code within, it really no longer is my main job and rather my hobby. And at that, I [...]
