So lately I’ve been a code consumer while at home (at work I’m still attempting to stay sane while cleaning up a poorly written web store that on top of that is in a poorly designed (or in this case evolved) language: VBScript), playing GTA: Vice City. Last night I realized I while I was flying down the west island on a PCJ crotch rocket that thinking of how exactly the data structures that made up VC might work.
So far I’ve only come up with 1 bug in VC that annoys me: persistance. I cannot figure out all the rules there are to if a car is going to stay in existance if I walk 100m away from it or not.

I’ve been looking for sample pictures taken with the phone I want, the Sanyo 8100. I found a few here. I downloaded them and looked for EXIF tags: nothing. More silliness. There is a radio clock and and GPSone (a tech to get gps coordinates from radio towers). Why isn’t this stuff embedded in the image?

I tried sending them more email thru their “email” form and realized I wasn’t getting any confirmation page when I submitted the email. My guess is some silly javascript thing is not working on mozilla and messing things up. Tried it on my wife’s w32-98 box with IE and lo and behold, I got a confirmation screen and tracking #. Sent them 2 emails about that and my real questions. Why are they so stupid?

Sprint PCS promised to get back to my email in 24 hours. 25 hours later, no email.

Setting the Record Straight
was reluctant was that Bill Clinton had tried to beat me up[…]
Bill ran after me, tackled me, threw me to the floor of the kitchen in the mansion and cocked his fist back to punch me. You grabbed his arm and, yelling at him to stop and get control of himself, pulled him off me. Then you walked me around the grounds of the mansion in the minutes after, with your arm around me, saying, “He only does that to people he loves.”
Charming people.
