The latest update I put on SourceForge fixes a bunch of calculation bugs that I had come across plus some other tweaks. I also added preliminary structure/building construction to REMLAB as well. FASA never really flushed out the rules for designing building and installations. The orignal Compendium had rules for it but they just seemed to have too many unnecessary [...]

I decided I didn't like the look of this site, it was my first attempt with Wordpress after all. Anyway, I kept the layout the same, but I redid the bulk of the graphics and colors. As well as fixing as much as I could of Wordpress's sloppy HTML and CSS coding from the default theme they provide. I'm still [...]

I just received my prints from Snapfish today. It was the first time that I used a service like this. I figured I'd give it a shot since my printer has been having issues with clogs in the color nozzles as of late, and the service is pretty cheap as well. The print quality is really good, as expected, and [...]

Since, I built my first new computer in nearly seven years this Summer, I've been trying to catch up on a long list of computer games that I've been dying to check out. At the top of the list was Bioshock, which turned out to be a pretty awesome game in nearly every aspect. The story and setting was hauntingly [...]

I just picked up World of Goo with the "pay whatever you want" sale (similar to what Radiohead did a few years back). I didn't drop as much money on it as I should have, since I try and watch my spending. But it's well worth it for this sleek little game. The indie game market is really picking up [...]

I just finished watching the Robotech series on Hulu. It was the first time that I had seen the show in its entirety in over 20 years. My cousin got me into this show when we were kids and I even had all the toys for it at the time. But, seeing Robotech now, like many of my childhood shows, [...]

Everything seems to be finally in place now. I have just a few more tweaks left to do, mostly browser specific adjustments. I really don't have much to report on from over the Summer. I have begun work on another children's book, which I am hoping to have done by Christmas. I plan to use some of my vacation days [...]

I've been making some changes lately. I just switched my hosting to something a little simpler and less expensive, and I've also ditched my own custom content management system for WordPress. I figured it just wasn't worthwhile continuing work on my own custom CMS when there are plenty of better and free alternatives out there. And I figured I may [...]

By and large I have nothing really new to report in my life. I've regularly uploaded photos from my various activities to my Picasa Web Album and some videos of my niece to Vimeo. As for Mistletoe's Night, it's now available in its entirety for free as an ebook on Scribd (nope) and you can now purchase the paperback of [...]

I finally received my first royalty check from Lulu. It's not a lot of money, especially considering more than half of it was from direct family members (Mom). But, it certainly helps when you don't have much to begin with. It will probably cover half my license plate renewal that's due next month. Also I recently made an e-book version [...]
