Just some random notes

Sunday, December 14th, 2008

Since I’m working 9 of the last 12 shopping days until Christmas (plus Boxing Day and the two days after it), I may be a bit light on the blogging though the new year. I’ll try to get to my end-of-year lists and resolutions, but there’s no guarantee. The roomies and I are going to [...]

How did we pass the day before the web?

Wednesday, August 20th, 2008

Well, it looks like we may not get home internet back until next week due to a hilarious series of errors in which all three of us misunderstood what was happening with our wi-fi and ended up canceling the service before we could get it switched to a new service provider. As a result, my [...]

Friday Night Thoughts for Saturday Morning

Saturday, August 9th, 2008

Must try to remember that Cincinnati bars will probably pick up a little after college starts. Otherwise, I was a little underwhelmed last night when I made my first foray into the gay club scene. Basically, the most exciting bar I visited compares to a mediocre bar in Salt Lake. I’m going to need a [...]

Soothing Water Noises

Tuesday, July 15th, 2008

  Vaillancourt Fountain, by Armand Vaillancourt. Built in 1971. This wonderful sculpture sits between the Ferry Building and the end of Market Street in San Francisco. Photo by Flickr user Pinhole.   Why is it that every time WordPress puts out an upgrade, it take me hours to figure out why the “automatic upgrade” has [...]

Catching up with Technology

Friday, May 30th, 2008

So, since my sisters have been brave enough to venture into the world of blogging, and I was reminded today of this video, I thought I’d encourage my sisters (and other friends) to sign up for twitter if you haven’t already. You can follow me at twitter.com/jerekeys. So, if you need an explanation, this is [...]

Happy Birthday Blind Prophecy

Friday, May 23rd, 2008

Today is this blog’s 4th birthday! I have no idea whose baby that is in the picture, but isn’t it cute? Actually, I started blogging a little sooner than May 23, 2004, but I ended up dumping that site and moving to LiveJournal after just a few weeks and any record of that time on [...]

Webcomics (Compare and Contrast)

Friday, May 2nd, 2008

So in addition to Bitstrips, another site Toonlet has trucked on out of the internet tubes. Both sites promise an easy way to make and share your very own webcomic with minimal artistic skill of your own. As you can see above, they have very different “feels” or styles to them, and I can’t decide [...]

Month in Review (March 2008)

Sunday, April 6th, 2008

I’m a little behind in doing my monthly recap on the search phrases that brought people to Blind Prophecy. March was something of an unusual month. I saw a huge spike in my Flickr stats as well as these blog stats. Check out the size of this jump on my Flickr photos: Both the spike [...]

Yes, I DO know what time it is

Tuesday, March 18th, 2008

I bought a new watch today. It’s the first time I’ve bought a watch since I lived in Vegas. In this age of cell phones, who uses them anymore? However, I justified the purchase as something I needed for the LSAT. I need to get better about budgeting my time on the test, and I [...]
