    The Transition.

    As it turns out, I hated the new layout, and am currently looking for inspiration on a new layout. If you know any sites you think might inspire me, let me know. As for right now, Its gonna remain like this. Hey- its functional. You can read what I write and that is important. Like some up coming posts/changes:
    -Review of the new Green Day cd. Its amazing. But there will be a more in depth review soon. If i have time.
    -Im probably going to revamp the categories and make it more organized
    -As you saw, I tried making individual pages for certain stuff. That will happen.
    As for right now, I have a shit load of stuff to do. Later!

    Ok Ok

    I know i havent posted in a while, but ive been really busy. If you havent noticed, the face of revenge of the nerd has changed. Its still in the doin. I want to make all the pages dynamic, and there for it might take a little while. But when its up, it will be sweet. Let me know what you think of the layout! Other things I want to do:
    -Rename PCI, and launch the new site design.
    -Learn some flash and make cool sites like that.
    -Learn MySQL with PHP, and ASP (which im taking a class in right now)
    ASP seems easier than PHP right now, so we will see how it goes. I also need to buy some software. Dreamweaver, Flash, MS Office 2003 for starters. If anyone knows were i can get them for cheap, let me know.
    Now I must get back to the piles and piles of work that has to be done. Later

    O mans.

    This is a general post, because, generally, its on a bunch of different things.
    First thing is first: News.
    I have been working and thinking alot about this site layout, and a new name for what is currently PCI. Both thus far have been complete failures. I want something new, fresh and sleek for this layout, and something creative and easy to remember for PCI. In both searches for just that, No dice. If you guys have any ideas for either, they are welcomed and appriciated.
    Also, I look forward to starting work this week- I am in much need of money. This will be a nice little sum of money for the time being. I also want to close the Anna Maries site, because that is just about done, and I will be reciving a nice sum of money from that.
    Anyway, on to the New Section: Downloads
    This is the first download of the blog, and it will get its own post, but a few people have already asked about it. The screen shot from the last post is a skin for Windows, and it is fucking sweet. It comes complete with new scroll bars, start menus, icons, sounds and a WMP skin. I love- its really sleek. You can get that here. The company that made it, The Skins Factory, does amazing things, and that site inpired me to redesign this site. I hope that within a year, i can do half the shit graphically that they can do. That coupled with the ASP course Im taking this semester and whatever i take next semester should really advance me in Web Development.
    Finally: Reviews
    This too will be getting its own post, but for now- here you go- The DaVinci Code…5
    This book is by far the best book i have ever read. Dan Brown knows how to tell a story and keep it going. It was a little slow in the beginning, but once you get to chaper 7 or 8, you cant put the book down! There are so many twists and turns that it keeps you guessing. I was seldon right. The storyline is great, and that with the story of the holy grail, this book will blow your mind. If you havent already, definatly read it.
    Later!

    Napolian Dynomite….5

    Fucking Funny. But this isnt your typical movie. You see, Where most movies have plots, this one didnt. There were events. But nothing really happened. I think that because of this, there was nothing to take away from the funny. Where in most movies, you might be wondering, or predicting what happens next, and therefore taking your full attention away from what is happening at the very moment, you really didnt need to guess what was going to happen in the movie, because nothing was happening. It was just like, a bunch of funny stuff strewn together. As Mike said, “It was a porn, but instead of sex, there was funny stuff.” And its true. There was no real character development. But it was the funniest movie i have seen in a long time. After the movie, you dont really know what to make of it. So you just laugh. So thats what I have to say about that.

    Now- I will go into this in full later, but here is a screen shot of my desktop. Click to enlarge.

    Notice the cool stuff. Its an Alienware skin for Windows Explorer. Look back for more info later.
    …Later.

    First Week…Down.

    Well Ive been meaning to post, and now I am! My class for the most part will be good. I got bumped up a couple of EC class so now i am learning ASP! Fucking yeah man. The only class im going to have a serious problem with is my Information System Analysis class. Cause my teacher is a dipshit. Hes a nice guy, but a terrible teacher. Its gonna take us a semester to get through what should only take a month.
    The best part is definatly that I have my own room. We rearranged it and its fucking sweet. So sweet in fact that im making an effort to keep it clean. I like that fact that “Im the host”, at the risk of sounding gay. I like having people over to watch movies and play video games and shit. And now I can. SO yay.
    Some upcomming things for the blog:

    • Probably a new Layout. I want to make my sites like more sleek, such as Alienware and Skin Factory. Ive been doing alot of photoshop stuff, and hopefully ill be able to make something work.
    • New Section- Downloads It will be a new category of cool shit that i feel i should share with the world. Of course, it will all be totally legal.

    Thats about it for now. Ill probabaly be doing alot of work this weekend, and try to get a beta layout for this monday??
    One last thing- PCI- the computer build, upgrade and repair business is doing great, but we need to change our name. So if you have any suggestions, let me know! That will also be getting a new layout. Later!
