Spiffication

First off, you can clearly see that I have updated the look of this thing. I was harassed by some people that the old look was too plain and didn’t compete with Matt’s flashy page. So, here you go.. still pretty simple, but at least it’s got some color.

I want to point out that a large portion of the pictures from Matt’s Christmas ‘05 gallery were taken by myself.. so if you wondering why he said that “the quality isn’t great, so take them for what they are worth. At least they made it online,” you now know why.. putz. But then, the thumbnail on his post is a picture I took..

I have no news on the graduate school front.. My advisor took his sweet time getting around to my recommendations.. I’m not sure that they are all done quite yet, even. I will have to ask about that on Monday. I know that a large majority of them are out, so I am eager for replies now. But, then I didn’t expect replies until February back when I thought all of my admissions materials would be in by the new year.. I’m still thinking mid-February, nevertheless.

I have no real comments to make about anything else.. So, I guess I will just stop here. And then next time, I will actually have some replies from grad schools hopefully, since last time I said I wasn’t going to post until I knew something.. Or maybe I will post more often.. who knows.. who cares.. who sneezes.

    I meant the quality from the Powershot G2 wasn’t up to snuff since I normally have material from DSLRs on my site.. I’ll update that post and give credit where credit was due.. I rushed to put those online so Gary Dial would quit giving me crap about not posting them..

    I wondered who was taking the pictures since Matt was in so many of them. I AM surprised he let anyone elses photos on his website, though. He must be mellowing out. Any more rodents inhabiting your humble abode these days? Hopefully, at your new college, you can find a place where they have pest control. If not, little bowls of anti-freeze works wonders. It’s sweet and they can’t resist it. I lost a few children that way, but it was easy enough to keep making more. This is the mentality one needs to be hired at Wal-mart. So, being “white trash” has helped me in my career endeavors. Talk to you soon!

    Also, I don’t see the “color” you’re speaking of on this new web design. Unless you are talking about Noah’s pic with the lighted ornament. What am I missing?

    No new rodents, but I’ll get back to you when spring hits and the ant invasion begins.. And, brown is a color :-P

    Where the hell’s the brown? I am only getting a ghastly grey and off white! Maybe it’s because I have outdated dial up, eh? Once again I see nothing from my sister, Patricia, or her husband! I, for one, appreciate the hard work and talent that go into these various websites. I am embarassed by their lackadisical and uncaring attitudes. EEEEEK, I just noticed your wal-mart smiley face. We MUST sign the petition to keep them out of Zionsville for Matt’s sake since your mother is doing nothing but munching her bon-bons.

    I just want to point out that I took some of those photo’s as well so mabye Matthew was just insulting MY ability and not yours…

    Okay, who’s The Flying Jew? If it is a family member, then once again, I wasn’t invited to the Barmitsvah. Snubbed, yet again! Just because I’ve had a few accidents while performing the Bris, should not exclude me from family functions. I’m sure Matt was not insinuating a personal affront against any of the picture takers. Clearly it was the low quality camera that was used, when the correct equipment should have been the Canon XLH1. For the record though, the one picture of your mother holding up her gift was pretty bad, and the photographer of that little gem should be tortured slowly.

    My sister does have a good eye- I don’t know who took the photo but you better believe the tree next year may not have any gifts for the photographer! I should sue since permission was not given to post the photo! And for the record, I am the mother of the flying jew, aka bunny file, and proud of it. Also the items in the apartment will be fumigated before they enter my house. Scott-rent has been put in the bank. Wouldn’t want you evicted and have to live in the Grand Prix for the rest of the school year.

    The Flying Jew is Steve? All is forgiven. I WAS at your Barmitsvah. Sorry about severing half your weenie. It was the Manischevitz that made my hand slip. So who needs the mushroom endcap anyway? It’s just for decoration. On the plus side, it’s given us many laughs over the years, Stubby.

    Hey Scott! I need some new material to work with. I think this site is much more important than getting a silly degree.

    Excuse me- I beg to differ. My baby will taking care of me in my old age so he will need the degree! You know I can’t survive on my wages from Ossip though I will be stylin’ in my selection of glasses!
