thanks heather!

Oct 11, 2002 //

Well, I liked the table problem at the Renaissance site. Heather sent me off in the right path. The problem was due to my flagrant misuse of HTML. Basically I was using an “li” tag without a “ul” tag (mainly because I hate what the “ul” tag does to formating). And IE apparently was choking on that usage and blowing out the tables.

We finished applying most of the first coat of polyurathane to the schools floors last night. This weekend we’ll be painting the interior and then next week a second coat goes on the floor. After that we build out the storage rooms and the dressing rooms. So close, so far, so little sleep.

busy, busy…

Oct 10, 2002 //

busy clippers… Things are just flying by right now. Work has been hectic, but great. (side note: have you ever noticed that I like to write that something’s been crazy, then immediately follow it up with “but good” or “but great.” Sigh, it’s a sign of lazy writing I guess). Learning content for kodak.com keeps progressing.

As for the school, things are really shaping up. The ceiling is down, the lights are up and the floor has been redone. It’s looking beautiful. There’s still a ways to go though and only two weekends left to the festival and grand opening. That’s pretty scary!

Speaking of the school I spent most of last night updating the website. I now remember how much I hate and love web design. I’m still struggling with table rendering across different browsers. IE for some reason doesn’t want to constrain the navigation tables to the pixel widths I specified and I can’t figure out why…. Still, check it out at renMartialArts.com.

Things for the third annual Chinese, Indonesian and Filipino Martial Arts Festival are going great. We have a great line up this year and it should be two great days. Now if things would go smoothly for the Exact Theatre Project I’d be totally rockin’ and rolling. If anyone knows anyone willing to spot a couple thousand dollars to a struggling non profit, please let me know.

what the heck happened to me?

Oct 9, 2002 //

Actually the better question is what the heck happened to my work computer. Last week it died. Dead dead. Like hardware crash. So it took a few days to get it back. After that I had to deal with browser issues. But now I’m all fixed and running Mozilla… I feel so hip.

Unfortunately I just got up and running and I really don’t have time to blog what’s been up. So instead I’ll placate all of you with one of those pictures I was promising. This is possibly the best picture I’ve ever taken. Or rather one of the few special effects photos that came out the way I intended. This was taken using time delay in a dark area with light sticks. The effect is pretty cool. BTW the photo links to a larger version should you want to download it.
