I’ve blogged a few times about my problems with our current president, but I think [...]

Upshot
30Jan05BASSEN!
27Jan05Compare to my entry on Monday: Today was the best day of my life. Today, I am sick, I have some sort of sore throat and inflamed tonsils or something. And whatever was going on in my throat today made me the happiest man in the world.

26Jan05There are a couple of new things for all to see on snowedin.net. I have hooked up some long hidden parts of the site to public view.

Chi, with cream and sugar
04Jan05Yesterday, my team made its submission to the 2005 SIGCHI Conference.

I am 23, [...]
