Lots of stuff on the DDR front, today. First of all, my artist has sent me the final logo a day after Thanksgiving! With this logo, I created fliers I am going to try and post around the area, at Colleges, High Schools, and so on. I’ve also ordered 25 T-shirts with the logo as a 8"x10" print on the front. By the looks of things I may have a couple left, but it’s always better to order more than necessary.

Wow… I woke up at 2:30pm today. I must have been way behind on my sleep. Anyway, some people keep hounding me over what I’d been looking for, for Christmas. Well, in an effort to make this possible, I stopped buying things for myself this month, and instead added it to a list I will now share with you. I’m almost done with Christmas shopping for other people, so this post should result in all Christmas-related details being finished.

Well, I’m almost done with my Christmas shopping. I’m not falling for that “Right Before Christmas Sale!” crap this time. I also re-financed my car; finally realizing that I’m not likely to sell my beautiful baby, and that $550 a month is far too much to pay. One of my student loans will be paid off next month, and the fridge and stove are now also paid off. Combined with the $140/month I’m saving on the car, I now have $350 extra every month so I can actually start saving money again.

If you are reading this, welcome to the Dual PIII-850 in my basement. My setup was successful, and I can now fire my old hosting provider csoft.net. The new server is based on Gentoo, running among other things: djbdns Name server software which offers a $100 bounty on any submitted security exploits that has yet to be claimed. The author apparently emulates a gyrating penis, but being an asshole hardly affects code quality.

Well, the 2004 presidential elections are over. The dust has settled, the towel has been thrown, and aside from a few provisional and absentee ballots, George Bush remains the President of the United States. Though I voted for Michael Badnarik of the Libertarian Party, I had secretly hoped John Kerry would win the election itself. Though voting for one candidate and desiring the success of another appears contradictory, my reasons will be made clear in the next few days.
