Fairly recently one of my good friends from College was all excited to show me her new piercing- a cute li'l stone where her umbilical cord once was. We talked about how common it was and it reminded me that any more it's harder to find someone without one. Three weeks ago I met another young christian in class. As we talked about our respective commutes (she thought hers was long!) I noticed that she had unpierced ears. Anyway as far as I remember this was only the second college age girl I know without extra holes in her ears. I think it's pretty rare. Many times we underestimate the natural unaltered beauty of our bodies, even our ears Read More

This is a collection of desktops by my brother Simon. He has a much larger collection but these few are adapted for my 20" Widescreen iMac. The are nicely zipped up 1680 by 1050 PNGs. I wrote this page a long time ago and it was the first one I had written that includes png transparency. That means that if you're using Internet Explorer 6 it will look ugly as a...well ugly. You should see it in Firefox! So if you need some coverings for your display
This is a poem I wrote back in 2005. Really I don't remember when I wrote it but I said October 6th. Looking back on my calendar doesn't reveal anything but an Organic Chemistry Lab and a Microbiology Lab. I think the thing that inspired me most to write it was this program called Pages which had this fantastic template that was just asking for something to be typed into it. Anyway it's heavily influenced by the Baker's book Always Enough which I was reading at the time. Additionally a lot it came from some of the most fantastic people I know, who have always loved to dance.
When I decided to publish it here in January it was mostly an experiment in writing valid cross platform xHTML and CSS. I am now convinced that you should be using Firefox instead of Internet Explorer. Of course after I wrote it, I decided to algorithmically animate the sunset in flash- this wasn't nearly as sentimental as the first paragraph.
This is from the good times back in 2003. We were pirates- wakeboarding pirates anyway. One Thursday (Thursdays were the evening that I taught pirate wakeboarding to High Schoolers and Jr. High kids) I got home after an awesome day on the water. I jumped in the shower and promptly began thinking I aught to write a pirate poem. It was all in my head before I was done shampooing so I went and wrote it all down...and this is it.
It's all laid out in CSS (again). This was also my first experiment with the 'print' media type. If you print it your browser should drop all the images and print a nice clean page. If you're using a Mac you get to see Lucida Blackletter fit perfectly to two pages. I'm really beginning to think that you should be able to link rel="font" in html. Oh well, I have no time for writing a new spec- although really we aught to scrap this HTML stuff and rethink our markup language.
