Man do I love Open Source Web Designs. If i didn’t use that site for at least the base, my sites would look as crappy as they did back in ’95 :)

Anyways new look, I’m quite happy with it, still needs some tweaking, but much better than the previous all white one.

Whoa, was watching Johnny Zero, which btw, is an awesome show.

Anyways, Johnny Zero this week, has the ever so cool nikita on it.
She’s such a cool typecasted actress, not sure she could do anything but the tough girl, but its cool to see her again.

Was watching that From Stargate To Atlantis: A Sci-Fi Lowdown special that was aired on the sci-fi channel way back when Atlantis was first aired.

They reminded us of the fact that in the first (or second) episode of Season 7, Daniel Jackson woke up naked in a field. Well the actor kindly pointed out, that this park was in surrey, and made some snide comment about the state of the park.

Walking to work this morning reminded me of just how close stargate is. Vancouver is so full of movie productions. Walking by 7-11 this morning to get some stuff for the office, the entire city block was lined with movie and power trucks. mmmm, those power boxes look so sexy.. er um, yea, So far working downtown, I have seen the filming of Tru Calling(tv), The Fantastastic Four(Movie), Smallville Season 4 Ep 1 (i managed to see that ep, not being a fan, that was suprising, but i reconignized the scenes from outside my office), And this week has been the Pink Panther which I missed most of, but did get a notice on the office door that there would be filming around.

After those named shows, I have also seen all kinds of misc movie crews around filming various items for various unnamed shows.

Anyways. back to stargate, I wish I had heard of this “Get in the gate” contest earlier, I would have entered. I would love to have some way of being involved in a project that everyone enjoys so much, that I can contribute to others enjoyments, and well, its stargate :).

On another note, benq e30 cameras suck, It really broke after the first week i had it.. I have to phone them soon, but they are only open during my office hours, and I never remember to bring the cell and call at lunch.

Have been finishing off watching my Stargate SG-1 Season 7 dvds. I can’t figure out why they replaced Dr Wei with a new actress. I actually think the first one was a better fit for the role. And according to Jessica Steen (first actress)’s website, she didn’t know why her character was re-casted.

How can you go wrong with the pilot from the captain power tv show?

I mean, I used to watch that show as a kid, before they were not allowed to have anything flashing on the tv, it rocked. I always wanted one of those toys.

I miss that show. I checked, amazon only has the vhs, no dvds.

Man, dovecot is more my favorite email imap server software.

I just installed squirrelmail from scratch, and man, its so fast. with my old server, i was using courier and squirrelmail, both debian packages, and man, it’d time out half the time, break others, etc etc etc.

The server isn’t any more powerful than the one i had at home, but man, its nice. Except it looks like squirrelmail caches sometimes so some emails don’t get moved right away.

Apparently during the move to ev1servers, alot of things broke.

I’ve fixed user registration, eventually i need to add trackback and anonymous commenting, but due to poor original design on my part (mostly I just wasn’t thinking i’d want them), its not going to happen any time soon.

I’ve also added google ads, yes they are tacky, although I don’t see them as that intrusive.

I’m actually working on a few projects, including my new comics system, which I would really like some feed back on by some people, I think i could setup a community building system that would work better than keenspace, and give something back cool to the community.

I also have a few ideas in the work for cool projects (mostly sadly, atm, ripoff as other sites). I like doing the work, but i’m not sure if anyone will ever use them.

Okay, my Last 2-3 posts here looked like they had something to do with work.

Well in just under 2.5 weeks now, I will be back to being unemployeed.

I’m just in the process of getting my resume cleaned up (again) before actually setting it up as a web page on the site. I doubt too many potential employers will see this, especially since its been so long since I last updated things.
