Books R KeWL

Lol, Jesse bought me a book for my birthday, Building Really Annoying Web Site. It’s f*king funny. I think just about every web developer, young or old, has at least commited one of these crimes written in this book. Hell, some still do. I am guilty of half of this book. Maybe not any more, ok ok, some I still am. I was crushed to find that orange is consitered as an annoying background color. F*k off, so what? But, the greatest thing about this book is that not only do they show what is annoying the world, but also shows how to use those same annoying things for good (IF you can). One example of annoyance I use, forcing links to a new window. WTF? I don’t care. I want a reader to stay here, whilst going somewhere else, get it? Then again it goes on to say it’s usually only annoying if EVERY link even to your own pages are forced. OK. Ahahahah another thing that annoys everyone is small text. The funny thing is I use a 1024×768 resolution (or bigger size depending on computer) and I can read the text just fine. I’m just scared to see how big the text would be on a 640×480 screen. Yet people still complain my text is too small. Weird.

I think the funniest ones are the navigational ones. Please click to cancel, and shows two boxes marked OK and Cancel. I want to close the window, so what do I click!? OR, To not proceed with the operations, don’t click this link. Weird, eh?

Personally, I think Jesse is trying to hint something… Thanks anyways, Jesse. Maybe I’ll make a page with a handfull of these stupid yet somewhat useful tricks.

Yelling and Screaming, It’s Fun!

I started my day yesterday at about 3:30 pm. I sleep a lot on the weekend. After a short car ride to the east, Shia, Hassan, and I arrive at a building with a lot of sharks. As we sit down, the lights go dim thens some maniac in some green lantern color scheme spadex skin tight outfit tells us San Jo-zee sucks.

WTF did I do yesterday? Actually, I went to see WWF with the buds at the Compaq Center Downtown, some might call it the “Shark Tank.” You’re probably asking, “WWF? Are you 10?” Ahahaha no, well, maybe. You might never know. I went with Shia and Hassan since they bought me tickets to this event for my birthday. I’m sure glad they did ’cause it was actually really cool! The seats were pretty good too. Not on the floor or near the ring, but a couple rows behind where the benches would be in hockey.

There was 2 main events one in the middle and one at the end. I think I liked the middle on best, ’cause it was the Texas Tornado Tag Team Match with Stone Cold Steve Austin & The Rock vs. Kurt Angle & Chris Jericho. Who do you think won?

Jacqueline Ref’ed the Women’s title bewteen Lita and some Big-bootie-ho, oh her name was Jazz. Lita won, ’nuff said.

A cool match was Kane & Big Show vs. Dudley Boyz for the Tag Team Chionship title. Sure the big boys lost but they kicked the Dudley Boyz ass after the match. Breaking a table with a human body RoX0rZz!!!

A weird match where I was a little disappointed was for the European Chionship title between Christian and Tajiri (if you don’t know, Tajiri looks Asian). What sucked about this match was that the Asian dood lost. Boooo!!! I hope he is European, or it wouldn’t make any sense.

One thing we couldn’t figure out was why they had to change refs every fight, was one match too strenuous?

I managed to forget my damn camera in the car with my jacket. I was a little over dressed for WWF so I left my leather jacket in the car. I’m always overdressed for every occasion.

After the all the wrestling we went to go eat then we met up with a big bunch of my old HS classmates to see Spike and Mike’s Sick and Twisted Festival of Animation, it was a little slow at times, but some of them were pretty funny. “MY SPOON IS TOO BIG!!!” “I am a banana.”


After that we went over to South First Billiards for some drinks. I think we were there a little too long ’cause I got a little tired of the area. Or maybe it was something else.

We, Shia, me, moO and Jesse finished the night up with some Carrows. I think Carrow’s is my favorite place to eat, I dunno even why. It ain’t even THAT good a food.

Ugh, my throat still hurts from all the screaming and yelling at the wrestlers. Or maybe I’m getting sick. Oh, well, it was a good day!

I should be studying for finals for tomorrow, but I took a short break to fill you in.

I Hate College Basketball

F*ck college basketball (for being on ch.4), f*ck NBC (for playing college basketball on Thursday night at 8), f*ck bay area NBC affiliates (for blacking out). My Friends NEW episode wasn’t shown at 8 o’clock. grrr……….

Birthday’s

Birthdays, when you’re young you can’t wait for it. When you get older, you could do without it. I think I’m just about in the middle of the two at this point in my life.

In any case, yesterday was a blast! I got to play a great hockey game while the buds (moO, Jesse, Shia, Hassan and Pam) watched and cheered me on, then hang out with them.

The first place team was a tough one. First period we score, shortly after the other team answers with a goal of their own. 1-1. Some time in the second period we score again, which the other team replies once again with another goal. 2-2 Third period I’m sitting behind the opposing goalie when someone on our team takes a shot and I see the puck behind him. Looing around waiting for the whistle for a split second, I grab the puck and put it in the goal to make it 2-3. Nearing the middle of the 3rd, I get some speed and some dekeing skills around two of opposing team deke the goalie out and with my backhand put it in over the goalie’s shoulder to get the “go ahead goal.” Shortly after the time runs out and we win 2-4.

Somewhere in the middle I was getting a little disapointed with myself, it being my birthday and all, I hadn’t scored any goals or gotten any assists. But it all turned out ok. Stupid Hassan just HAD to point it out that I didn’t get my hat-trick. Bastard, LOL j/k. Well, at least I got the winning goal and the go-ahead-goal.

After the game and a short celebration with the team, the buds and I went back to my house for pizza. We finished the meal with a chocolate pie Shia brought. Over all, you have to say it was a good day.

Happy Couple! [Pic]

This is me and my happy wife, Jennifer, on our appearance at one of the Emmy’s. You might recognize her from some TV show… What was it called again? …Oh yeah, Friends. Don’t we make a cute couple?! Ok, so, I must be really bored. moO will probably have me hung (hanged?) after seeing this, but, hey, it’s my birthday!

Happy Birthday!

Happy Birthday me! Wow, that’s cool. I was born on the same day as the legend himself! No, not George Lucas. Walt Disney! Happy Birthday, Walt! Just Disney

So, yeah, today is the big day. Nothing really planned until tonight. That’s where the fun really lies. A most important game for me. I’ve waited for this game for weeks. We’re playing the first place, undefeated, team! What will the outcome be?! Will Adam score a goal (or two)?! Or will he look stupid in front of everyone!?! Stay tuned!

The 1980s

Pam sent me an email about how you know you grew up in the 80’s if you agree with some list of nostalgic items. I think I’ve gotten this email several times from a lot of people. I think I can even recall this same email from her a while back. LOL! Check out my witty smart ass responses

Hockey 11/28/01

I played a tough game last night… night before? What time is it? Er, whatever, I played a tough game this Wednesday. The only thing on my mind was, Don’t get kicked out. Don’t get kicked out. I even got talked to before the game by the ref. He’s a cool guy and he knows me, so it wasn’t like a serious talk. So, I managed to play the game without getting a penalty. Unfortunetly, I didn’t even get a goal this game either. I think I managed an assist though. We played the team we played out first game to, the Genies, where we beat them 3-6 where I got the 1st hat trick of the season. This time was another win for us. After 3 periods we win, 7-2. Yay us! I just can’t wait until next week, that’s where the real stress comes. We’re to play the first place team, who are UNDEFEATED! I’m gonna need all the support I can get. So, come and watch if you’re in the area!

AHAHHAHAHA I was really bored last night, can’t you tell….

Amazon.com

I DO have a book or two on there. I would have put another Tom Clancy book on there, but I don’t know what his newest good one was. Plus, I haven’t even gotten around to finishing “Rainbow Six,” I bought a long time ago hardbound, yet.
