Wow my last update was back in June/July with me watching over Mary in MGH for her back surgery. Mary is doing much better, on her feet and working daily, and almost back to her normal self.

We went to NYC a week ago and took one of those hop on hop off tour bus and saw the basic of the city. Took the subway also. We saw Statue of Liberty and Ellis Island from the harbor. Looked up and saw the Empire State Building, and Chrysler Building and the Waldorf, and Time Square. We were not able to get in to many of the attraction cuz the lines was 2-3 hrs long. No point waiting time.

Thanksgiving is coming up and I am planning to have the annual thanksgiving dinner at my place again. So far 6 - 7 people have confirm, but I am hopping for more of 15+. But ill see, still 3 weeks before the event.

Currently Playing Game: Cartoon-Wars And Spheric

Last updated: 2009-11-09 08:33:37

Another two new IPhone games I recently got. Cartoon wars is very fun, but there is no definitely ending level. The graphic looks like paper art from a 5 years old, and the ability to level up stop short of being fun. In short, I think the first 80 levels are very fun, where you can level up with the point you earn. But Once you max out on your level up, the enemy continuously get stronger, while you are restricted on how quickly you can produce soldiers. It gets to a point that the PC and product like 30 new soldiers while you produce just 2 or maybe 3. This games has good foundation, just wasnt thought through.

Spheric, I just stated playing, kills about 5 - 10 minutes before I died and start over. Its more like a connect 4, mix in with one the the pop-cap games where you shoot a ball to reduce the number of spheres. Unfortunately My IPhone isnt that fast and the lag continuously cause the game to be more of an annoyance than fun.

My 2 Cents: What about ME?

Last updated: 2009-04-05 19:45:14

This is my theory, I am open for arguments, so email me or message me or what ever if this is not how you feel about it. Peace.

Recent events about our current economy makes me ask the question. What about Me? I am usually pretty ok with not getting any government help as long as they are not fucking me over. But the things about AIG bonus payout, and all these big company getting stimulus bail out while my paycheck each 1/2 month just gets smaller.

So I am asking, as a tax payer, when are we going to see the stimulus bill going to help me out? When am I going to get fuck over a little less. I am not asking them to pay my house off, or asking them to give me a check because the head of the house (Head of the company) is not making as much as they wanted. In short. I am asking when are we going to stop paying for other people's stupid mistake. How do you justify getting millions as a salary or millions in bonuses when the company is tanking? What happened to if you fuck up and loose profit, your ass is fired. Why are they getting bonuses when the world's economy down fall is partly the fault of these few people?

Link of the day: Simplefunctions.com

V2 of simplefunctions was launch last week. So far, I have redesign the layout, look and feel. The old ajax no page refresh wasnt as good as I liked it to be. And development took a whole lot longer and maintaining was a nightmare.

V2 is very simple and back to basic, database driven, page does refresh but enclosed in a template which make loading that much faster. All many styling is CSS3 adapted with rounded corners and text shadows done by CSS3 instead of PNG. Jquery and its plugins were heavily used to get a very rich and smooth interaction. I hope this is more successful than V1. I still have a few pages in the works that I want to complete soon. Maybe end of week or next.
