I'm jumping on the bandwagon and my superpower is time travel!

Stop the clock! Your inner superpower is TIME TRAVEL! Your answers show a keen sense of insight for all the mysteries of time. Whether you enjoy reminiscing about the past or find yourself lost in thoughts of the future, your energies definitely point away from the present. Maybe you're mere seconds ahead or behind the rest of us, but you could also be days or even years out of sync. Your unique position in time and space gives you a wider perspective on daily events and makes you an especially wise person. You're probably a great planner. And since time is yours to play with, it's almost a given that you manage it well. If you haven't yet taken a trip through the fourth dimension, you're in for the ride of your life. Don't delay! Visit the future. Fix the past. And when you come across a very special moment, make it last as long as you like.

If I change the last question then I get animal comunication. hmmmm

If you ever go to State College, PA (where Penn State is), beware of what you wear or you might get arrested for something like this:

Disorderly Conduct: A 22-year-old male was cited Wednesday afternoon for wearing a "F**k Petrol" T-shirt while riding a bicycle on the 200 block of East College Avenue. The shirt was seized.

Pennsylvania is way too conservative for my taste.

I added a section where the latest news will show up thanks to moreover. It's really neat, you can use js, flash, xml, etc. to get them in your page.  WARNING: Might take a bit to load since it's grabbing four categories from moreover.
This is one of the best Behind the Curtain galleries I've seen. You rule Dan.
I updated my resume. I was really bored :P

This is soooo cool!
I didn't know that synchronized diving was a sport at the Olympics.
Surprise surprise... Penn State is losing to Ohio State. Look.. another fumble! Blah, they suck ass this year. I guess they are not even ranked and if they keep it up no bowl this year.

viernes, septiembre 22, 2000

Now CBS is showing reruns of Survivor. I bet that gets more ratings than the boring Olympics at NBC.

And while I can't find anything interesting on tv (and I have digital cable with all the channels, 200+), Eitel is playing Star Trek Voyager: Elite Force. I don't blame him, since the game is based on the Quake 3 engine, it looks cool and it's kinda like watching a new episode.

My new work hours are 8am-5pm. So I get to the office and only 2 people are here (the HR/Accountant and Secretary). Hum... I bet that if I get here late I wil get yelled at (murphy's law at work!).

Thanks to everyone for all the cards and good wishes on my birthday. Eitel got me one of the nifty Wacom tablet like this one:


Happy Birthday to me!

My flavor is licorice:

Mmm ... licorice! Strong and edgy, you're the flavor of black jellybeans and Good 'n' Plentys. Some people absolutely love you (in fact, they might even find you addictive), but you're definitely not for everyone. But that's okay with you — you'd rather pick and choose your companions. When you have time for friends at all, that is. Powerful and very potent, you're goal oriented and ambitious — you don't let much stand in your way. There's nothing sweet or sugary about you; you're a serious taste that's best suited for the truly focused. Lingering, enigmatic, and a little hard to pin down, you're a truly tantalizing treat.

I guess most of it is true. I'm a very picky person ;-)

Finally the webloggers ring is moving out of Yahoo/Webring.org, so if you are on it then go to this page and sign up again.  Poor Jish will have to add 700+ sites to the ring.
I found this nifty PHP script so I decided to use it.  The gallery of pics from my new place (before we moved in) is up.
Am I the only one who thinks that CBC's olympic coverage is much better than NBC's? Living close to Canada has its advantages.

I really hope that my phone keeps working, because waiting two months for a repairman to come and fix it sucks. No wonder why we now call the telco AmeriCrap. Now that I think about it, the only people that call me are the telemarketers.
Layla has a new layout! I love it and I'm so jealous of her webdesigning skills.
I don't want to work. Can't you see that my bed is calling me?

miércoles, septiembre 13, 2000

I'm watching Big Brother and all I can say is.. ZzZzZzZz
Britannica is analyzing Dennis Miller's commentaries from Monday Night Football. Now I can really understand wtf he's trying to say.
Oh no, another "reality" show awaits us in the near future. What's next, 12 strangers stuck in a sub in the middle of the ocean?
Attention to all font whores like myself: another cool font site. Thanks to Katie for the link

lunes, septiembre 11, 2000

I like it. Nice redesign and the font for the graphics is so cool (which font is that btw?).

domingo, septiembre 10, 2000

I forgot all about the Emmys tonight. Notice how their domain ends on dot tv. First one I've seen so far.
It looks like I'm 72% pure. Is that good?
T-8 days for my birthday!!!
I'm still wide awake. Nobody is online in ICQ, nothing interesting on tv and the net. blah... I'll regret it probably on Monday when I won't be able to stay awake at work.

sábado, septiembre 09, 2000

I've been watching the MTV VMA 2000 by pieces this week. Britney lipsynched her song. And the Wayans brothers weren't funny, bring back Chris Rock!

viernes, septiembre 08, 2000

What's wrong with some guestbooks? Pretty much every time I sign one from gbook.nu I get this message saying that "rebuilding guestbooks is temporarily disabled, however your entry has been saved". Is this an option or something??
What a cuttie!

and before I forget... TGIF!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

miércoles, septiembre 06, 2000

OMG, a Hello Kitty Dreamcast. Too cute! I want one :-)
Yuck! This is the ugliest webring code out there. Yahoo!, you suck for taking over Webring.org and screwing up all the features. Want to hear the horror stories.. click here

To (almost) complete our home network, now we have a HP JetDirect EX Print Server. What else I want? a Mac and a cable modem/dsl router.
Aww how nice of Rosie O'Donnell.

"Rosie O'Donnell kicked off the fifth season of her talk show with a Survivor-themed installment in which she presented losing castaways Rudy, Sue, Colleen, Gervase and Gretchen each with a 2001 Pontiac Aztek, the same vehicle awarded to $1 million winner Rich Hatch."
Sent via email: Star Wars gangsta style. Too cool!
Look how cute Fluffy looks in this picture:
We got her from the animal shelter and she is almost 17 months old

I found a great site with lots of content. The owner is a geekgirl who's 23, a Virgo, likes computers and geek stuff (like me). Heck, I think she is geekier than my fiancé! Only difference, we have more computers at home than she does (4 PCs, 3 laptops). Go visit her blog!
Looking for some links on web tutorials and design tips among others? Go to ctrl+d.
Want a blog but don't know where to host it or you think ftp is too complicated? Try blog*spot. It's free and it has a banner on the page but hey, it doesn't look that bad.

domingo, septiembre 03, 2000

This is funny. Here is my site Jesusfied (warning, annoying midi will play after download). Reading the site like that reminds me of those English books I had to read in High School that I couldn't understand thanks to those big English words (Of Mice and Men comes to mind).

A made new wallpaper, it's Saturn from Sailor Moon. If you like it grab it.
I learned something today. To get SSI working correctly, all the files have to be on the same directory. I originally had my SSI files on a separate directory but when I uploaded the index.shtml file I got a error on the place where the SSI is. So now the Blog is powered by SSI ;)
Puerto Rico's governor decided that the island should be like the east cost and go to daylight savings time. PR is in Atlantic Savings time and they don't change the time when we do. It really doesn't make any difference specially since we are closer to the equator than the US is. But obviously he doesn't care. So when the change occurs, at 7am it will still be dark. On the good side, now the tv shows on cable will be on at the same time.
I can't believe that Toledo is kicking Penn State's butt on today's football game. Penn State has no offensive, their quarterback sucks ass and almost all the defensive starters from last year left for the NFL or graduated. I think I will start watching Michigan's games (maybe I should just walk to the stadium which is not far from here, about 3 miles)

viernes, septiembre 01, 2000

See what happens when you train people on a real computer? Maybe we should start training on one of those Hot Wheels/Barbie computers.
I should've taken the day off, then I would've had a 5 day weekend. Oh well, off to work to sleep.. oops.. work.

jueves, agosto 31, 2000

I finally got rid of the purple colors on my Add-a-link page. So now go there and link your site!
Here comes Yahoo again, buying eGroups.
If you are a Ringmaster from webring.org and don't want to jump on the Yahoo! wagon when they finally take over them, look at RingSurf. It's free and basically does the same thing.
I'm dying here! It's so hot and humid. There is no way that I will walk around today, I might die out there with no water! :P

martes, agosto 29, 2000

I want this one and this one. Oh, and this one too! I'm a sucker when it comes to collecting Barbies.

lunes, agosto 28, 2000

I've been playing around with SSI. I thought it was hard but it isn't. I just can't think of a way to implement it on my site. The only thing that I change constantly are the archive's links and the blog's links. But to do that is not that hard. Maybe for my next layout.
Humph! More than half of the blogs that I had bookmarked are gone! I guess the fad is dying. But don't worry, I will keep on boring you people day after day. :P

sábado, agosto 26, 2000

For those of you looking for more alternatives to gbook.nu, here's one: getstring.com.
Who wants to get me one of these *drools* Pentium 4
I really mean it this time when I say that I'm going to clean up the old place today. Five days left and then I will officially check out of the apartment.

jueves, agosto 24, 2000

I'm glad I wasn't at Comerica Park last night for the Invasion of the Flying Ants
People!! you won't find any recan porn here. And what the hell is recan? Like rican as in Puerto Rican? I have no idea.

miércoles, agosto 23, 2000

Well, I will spoil it for all the West Coast people..... Rich won (4-3) and Kelly came in second. I was so sure that Kelly was going to win, but I guess she picked the wrong number. And I must say, Sue, you are a bad bad loser.
Who will win the million in Survivor? I'm going to watch! I don't want to be left out :P
Happy Birthday to you!
¡Feliz Cumpleaños a ti!

martes, agosto 22, 2000

Congratulations on the closing of your house, Silver!
This guy is so talented. I love his writing and his design. I can't remember how I got here but I'm glad I did.

lunes, agosto 21, 2000

I'm too lazy to change guestbooks again, but if you are sick of gbook.nu, look at Megabook. It runs from your server (need cgi and perl) and the best part, it's free and no ads!
My cable modem got installed today and I downloaded Netscape at 178 KB/sec. I couldn't go over 100 KB/sec with the DSL. I love high speed access :)

domingo, agosto 20, 2000

Let's see if Mediaone can finally come over and install the digital cable/cable modem. Watching only local channels from Detroit and Toledo is no fun.
oh my god!!!!! fonts, fonts and more fonts!! I'm going crazy here at The Font Machine.
I want this.
Bar bought some blank CD-R cds so now I'm off to burning some Spanish mp3's, that way I won't be bored at work.
I didn't know that Christina Aquilera had pointy ears like a vulcan. It looks like she does on this lunchbox.

I dig metal lunchboxes. Too bad they don't sell them anymore. Maybe I will start collecting them.
Oh.. and I have no idea how people can live without cable! Toledo local channels have a better reception than Detroit's (at least on my tv).
Finally! Everything is here, now I need to unpack all the clothes, books and other stuff. Then the place will stop looking like a nut house.

Here are some pictures of the townhouse. I like it!
One more month to my birthday!! I'll be 24 on September 18th
Tomorrow some of Eitel's friends are coming over to help move the big things then all we have to do is clean clean clean the old apartment. To make things worse, it feels like Fall around here. It got down to 50 (F) last night and I think the high today is 62. brrrr

miércoles, agosto 16, 2000

I swear that I won't move again!!! Too many things to move back and forth and we still need to clean the apartment.

martes, agosto 15, 2000

So, the cable guy never showed up. The excuse? That I called and rescheduled the appointment for Monday. If I did that, then why I was sitting around all afternoon waiting for these morons to come? Then they said that they called... yeah right, no voice mail left and the number didn't show up on the Caller ID. Liars! Now I have to wait until Monday to get the cable modem and the digital cable installed. *sigh*
Did I mention that my fiancé Bar also redesigned his blog? It's contagious! And if you sign his guestbook and mine, I'll give you a virtual cookie.
Go figure, the day I'm supposed to start moving my stuff to the new townhouse, it gets all cloudy, hot, humid and with a big chance of thunderstorms. I just hope that the rain stops before the cable guy comes in.

Booooo to AOL
This is what my cat's name means:
Fluffy
Information about this name:
Related Name:Fluff
Meaning: Covered with fluff, Soft, light and airy.
Screen Details: The name of the family cat in the TV series the "Brady Bunch". Cartman's pet pig in "South Park".

Well, she is soft, somewhat light and she can get some airtime when jumping from the window to the bed (or from the top of the cupboards to the floor).

Oh no! It's Jabba the Hasselhoff
I snuck out of work early today! I have to run some errands and go to the Secretary of State and change the address on my registration, driver's license, etc etc etc

domingo, agosto 13, 2000

Dang it, the weekend is over and I have to work tomorrow. But, on Tuesday I get the keys of the townhouse we are going to be living in. So I'm excited!
I'm hungry.. what should I eat? I'm craving Little Ceasars' breadsticks.. yum!
The latest spam I just received (don't you just love it):

Dear Friend:
AS SEEN ON NATIONAL TV:

''Making over half million dollars every 4 to 5 months from your home for an investment of only $25 U.S. Dollars expense one time''

THANKS TO THE COMPUTER AGE AND THE INTERNET!
===============================================
BE A MILLIONAIRE LIKE OTHERS WITHIN A YEAR !!

sure dude, if you are so rich why using a fake email address like 31CP4M8cM@PCMoenkeberg.gwdg.de (I doubt that anybody will have that kind of email address)? Maybe it is because you are in the Philippines using epic.net... bah!

sábado, agosto 12, 2000

Happy Birthday Zal and Lilian! Now, as a reminder, my birthday is coming up in one month and six days, so y'all can start saving your $$$ for my presents
and it actually looks decent in Netscrape. I don't like how the form looks in NS but oh well
I think it works... yay! and my blinking part of the image was inspired by Brooke's park sign on her beautiful layout
Testing the new layout

viernes, agosto 11, 2000

I want to do a new layout for Islabonita but I have no idea what to do. none.. zip... nada. I think I will surf around tonystone and find that perfect photo.

jueves, agosto 10, 2000

I don't know how I found this site, but I think the url will explain everything: http://www.cousincouples.com/

I downloaded the PC version of the card game UNO and I'm addicted. I used to play it alot when I was in school and now I can't stop. HELP!

If you use it from within MSN Messenger it's free, well at least from the US.. oh, and from Canada too (according to their page).
The Net2Phone that comes with MSN Messenger is much better than Dialpad, plus it lets me call to Puerto Rico for free! (Dialpad can't do that yet)
Weird referral of the day: pikachu+picture+dying+killed
