Enormous breakthroughs on my board game! Keep your eyes on Dragon Duel for new rules soon!

Wednesday, December 20, 2000

I think my internet connection (ATT Broadband in Amherst, MA) has been buggy lately. I've put a Functional Mirror of my new Dragon Duel rules brainstorming post up on my site.
if my Dragon Duel bulletin board remains broken I am going to be very mad. on the bright side my mineatures were just shipped.
I should sleep less more often. Just got some great ideas for my board game, read my post at Dragon Duel Comments - Inspiration and give me your feedback!

working on the new Palm Strategy + Design page: www.strategyanddesign.com/new so exciting watching it unfold, it's a nice stretch of my html skills, getting the tables to flex properly and making all those lines match up. once again re-affirming my hatred of the netscape browser.
Walking out of the door this morning what should fall out of the tree in front of me but the dead mouse I'd seen lying on the ground the day before.

added google search to my links page: www.divinentd.com/links.html#google
New feature! Now YOU get to choose whether links open in new windows or not. Check the box next to where it says "new window?" (which is up and to the right) and all the links on this page will pop up new windows. Before I had been going with the 'new windows for off site links' convention, but it's just better to give you the choice, wouldn't you say?

done. no more assembly language for me.
(Cuff) Links! There's a new link on my home page, it's a randomized cuff link image, with a random mouse-off swap. Fun to play with. Also put some more mouse-overs on the home page to explain what the hidden links are so that this site can function as both my personal site and professional portfolio.

Tower of Hanoi The Tower of Hanoi puzzle was invented by the French mathematician Edouard Lucas in 1883. We are given a tower of eight disks, initially stacked in decreasing size on one of three pegs. The objective is to transfer the entire tower to one of the other pegs, moving only one disk at a time and never a larger one onto a smaller. I implemented the double recursive algorith that solves it in assembly. Almost done my final >:-)
solved one! 3 more to go and i've got this take-home final beat.

Narcissus and Echo by Fred Chappell

1985

Shall the water not remember Ember
my hand's slow gesture, tracing above of
its mirror my half-imaginary airy
portrait? My only belonging longing;
is my beauty, which I take ache
away and then return, as love of
teasing playfully the one being unbeing.
whose gratitude I treasure Is your
moves me. I live apart heart
from myself, yet cannot not
live apart. In the water's tone, stone?
that brilliant silence, a flower Hour,
whispers my name with such slight light:
moment, it seems filament of air, fare
the world becomes cloudswell. well.
Contortionists are INSANE! Must be pretty cool to be able to give yourself head though... I'd never get any work done.
Taping Cirque De Solie - We Reinvent. They're showing on Bravo and we're taping all of them. Gotta love cable! Can't wait for this next season of Sopranos, hope it hasn't lost its edge.

I finished my Assembly Language homework, it's testing in the other room, been running for 4 hours and 2 minutes. The assignment was to create a timer by attaching a function to the computers time chrystal hardware interupt. It's pretty neat.
evolt.org - Liquid Tables I've been trying "liquify" a table vertically as well as horizontally: www.divinentd.com/screen No luck thus far since Netscape doesn't like the height table attribute.
