Lately…

Wednesday, August 30th, 2006

…GloryFish.org has finally come together and I think our content style is starting to settle down. Now that I have a better handle for the type of writing I’m going to do for the new articles I think it would be good to start blogging again.
Recent highlights have been:
-Completed the website edesign at work and [...]

I’m afraid of Americans…

Wednesday, March 15th, 2006

I just realized that I had started this draft last month and never finished it, my bad, here is the finished post. -Jay
…I spent the weekend in New York City. It was like being in another world. Let me tell you all about it.
My wife, since she was very small, has had serious problems with [...]

Blue Hotness…

Wednesday, January 18th, 2006

…The Life and Times of GloryFish (me!) have been quite exciting lately. As I mentioned a few weeks ago, I wrecked my car, or more accurately someone else wrecked my car. Today I concluded the nasty process of dealing with insurance companies, towing services, and adjusters.
I took delivery of a shiny blue 2003 Taurus [...]

There are very bad people in the world…

…Jay’s a sad panda.
Update: I wrote the above from my wife’s parent’s house amid Christmas hustle and bustle. It was my response to finding out that the forums had been hit by (probably) the phpBB Sanity worm. We lost almost 3000 posts and hundreds of topics that made up the best representation of GloryFish.org’s [...]

Winter Excitement…

Friday, December 23rd, 2005

…I had an awfully exciting day yesterday. I left work a little early to get some last-minute shopping done. As I was finishing up and heading for home, a guy in a pickup truck cut across my lane of traffic. I plowed into him hard and that knocked the guy into an suv that [...]

What I’ve been up to lately…

Monday, December 5th, 2005

…I’ve been so busy lately, it seems only right to mention a few of my latest projects:

I’ve been developing a Usability Plan for the college site. This is basically a document that outlines a specific procedure for testing how easy the site is to use. It’s a preliminary step that can really help out later [...]

Barenaked on a Stick…

Wednesday, November 23rd, 2005

…In a move that would surely make the RIAA soil itself, the Barenaked Ladies are releasing their newest album, “Barenaked for the Holidays” on a 128MB USB drive. The drive, entitled “Barenaked on a Stick,” costs $30 and is reusable. It comes packed with MP3s from the Holidays album as well as videos and other [...]

The Verdict…

Thursday, November 10th, 2005

…I guess I was so excited that I completely forgot to follow up my last post. I didn’t want to get in the position of “speaking too soon” but I think it safe to say for certain: Feed the Fish is back together again…sort of. We aren’t really Feed the Fish anymore.
But we are [...]

Space Oddity…

Friday, November 4th, 2005

…As I sit here, I’m listening to David Bowie and reminiscing of days gone by. Between my younger days spent writing QBasic code, and my current days spent writing HTML, I had a go at being a musician. I met Scott Campany at a worship practice at my church one day some five or six [...]

My job…

Monday, October 31st, 2005

…I haven’t mentioned much about it aside from a few stray posts on the Forum: I got a new job. After working at a bakery, a telemarketing firm, a summer camp, Ponderosa, and the Great Adirondack Soup Company, I have finally landed a “real” job. The whole story is kind of serendipitous really.
While working at [...]
