Due to current personal portfolio work, I will not be working on this site for at least another week. Please be patient, web design always takes time to produce a quality result. I greatly appreciate your patience, and as a treat, my next posts will be the ones I wrote while in Japan last week WITH pictures (in a picture gallery that is formatted correctly ;) ). ~Sterling P.

Well that didn’t work… I suppose you can’t start a post with a blockquote, no problem there, live and learn i suppose. ~s

(Editors Note: My friend just showed me that you CAN start with a block quote, it just doesn’t work for me, so i simply said fuck it… and i shall never start a post with a block quote… thank you for your time )

Yesterday was the implementation of my picture gallery, it looks fairly basic, but you don’t know how much work went into at least getting it that much of where it was supposed to be.
In anycase, today, i’m working on fixing the implementation of the gallery, and working on some sidebar features and formatting to get it looking more natural, more later I think, until then.

A aawwww… my first picture.
No really, it makes me feel special that my web design skills are so much better that i can final implement graphical elements into my weblog…. err.. right. But it looks like i need a certain amount of text to wrap the picture to make it look right, so i guess i’ll keep typing until that moment comes…. yep, looks like it’s here… ~s out

Have you ever wondered how stupid you can be? Well try packing for a 7 day trip at 3am the night before you’re supposed to leave at 7am; there’s always something to forget, and even when you think you have everything, you’ll surprise yourself mid—12.38—hour—flight. So how does this impressive tail begin? Well with me staring at a glass full of pencils and pens thinking, “I should pack some of those,” but consciously deciding to get it later.

NEVER, consciously decide to get it later. Seriously, the smartest thing you can do is to pack everything you remember the movement you remember to pack it. Now where does the conflict and action of the story take place, well the same place most do actually, on a cramped, low leg room, flight to Japan.

Theoretically this flight should be the most entertaining thing I’ve done in a long time, considering I haven’t been out of the country since my last trip there. So here it is: Anyone who knows me well enough usually knows I have thing for awesome pens and pencils. Since I do a lot of artwork, I tend to lean more toward the pencil side of things. Also they might note that I am not the person to use a different medium when I don’t feel like it. So wouldn’t it just be ironic that I have a shit-load of pens and feel like using pencils? A common person might ask, and quite rightfully so, why not borrow a pencil? The simple answer there being, because I’m anal.

There are two types of pencils I use. 1. Pentel 0.5mm P205; Fantastic click action, great weight balance, easily replaceable parts, and my pen of choice for the past 15 years. 2. Alvin Draftmatic 0.5mm DM05; Weight distribution is a little heavy toward the front, great serrated grip, quality thin rubber layering, exact strokes. Now, as much as I like to be well prepared, the one time I actually go someplace, my utensils are completely unprepared.

Inventory: 6 Pilot G-2 pens, 3 Sharpies, 2 highlighters, 1 Pentel, replaceable erasers for the Pentel, NO lead! And so, extreme annoyance ensues. After the one piece of lead in my favorite pencil is gone, I’m shit out of luck as far as art goes for the rest of the trip. So far it’s been a brilliant start to what should be a thrilling trip. IN any case, we shall see. Other then sitting in the middle of a plane, throwing my words on to a blank word document, the very least thing I can express right now is that I hate being uncomfortable for long periods of time. I can’t wait till I’m fucking rich and get to fly business or first class everywhere, this economy class shit simply isn’t going to cut it.

The one saving grace is that there are some beautiful women on this plane, too bad none are within striking distant, and my mom is sitting next to me. Bah, more when I get to japan.

Ok, so i’ve got no clue how to design a webpage on a PC to be display on a mac, rather, so it looks right in mainly safari (since ie on the mac is a major piece of crap — yes even more so then the one on pc’s). Anyway, if anyone can come up with a solution for it, I’d be glad to give you some sweet lovin.

WHY? Because the entire world should be able to read my shit and love it like the rest of you. And NO, spec checks only do not work. My code can validate perfectly fine in dreamweaver for safari, and it looks like a retard programmed it when it displays, so next solution please? (*waits for pc safari and icalander*)
