Kids are dangerous

I just read an article about how ~1 million kids jumping up and down for a minute produced an earthquake. Pretty bizarre.

Pretty cool - Google apparently has a pig-latin interface. Now, Babelfish needs a pig-latin -> english and english -> pig latin translator.

Off to Edmonton

We’re heading out for Edmonton today after lunch - hopefully we’ll get out of town around 1:00 or so. Should be a fun trip.

My phone was flashing when I came in this morning - two callers and 5 messages - how does that work. Not only that, but all the messages were hang-ups. Plus, one of the phone numbers was “Unknown Caller” while the other one was a number that I didn’t recognize. The mystery deepens, because I couldn’t even find the number in the reverse lookup online.

I suppose they’ll call back if it’s important :)

We put the downpayment on the cruise on Wednesday, so we’re committed to going now I guess :) I should check with the travel agent to see what my booking number is, because Princess allows people to book excursions online as well as check on their cabin placement. Apparently people find out that they’ve been bumped to a higher class cabin online sometimes.

I’ve made some changes to the site, some based on my ideas, some based on requests, and one in particular based on an oversight. I added a comment feature (really, it’s just linking to an offsite comment provider) that I’m not totally happy with, but it’ll do the job for the time being. I also added a Forum, which I’m relatively happy with, except for the ads and stuff. Lastly, I added a “Powered By Blog” button, which was apparently missing from the site. This site is indeed powered by Blog, and I have Fahim to thank for writing it, and inspiring me to do this page.

I also tweaked the stylesheet a bit, because apparently it looked pretty horrid in Netscape 4.7 (Why are you still using NS 4.7, it’s brutally out of date :-)

I’m open to other suggestions, and I’m currently looking into a different comment system, because the one that I’m using is a little clunky.
