If anyone IMs you with the screenname Portf0li0so, or any other variation of the screenname claiming to be me, it is not true and do not believe it. If I decide to change my screenname, I will ALWAYS tell everyone first on my main screenname that i will be changing it.

I received an email from AIM today which told me that someone used my email address to register a screenname. It asked if I would like to associate the email with the screenname or deny it. I chose to deny it, because I never signed up to begin with. However, the screenname will still work, just won’t be active.

Very nice guys, keep making fake screennames claiming to be me. Don’t you have better things to do?

I finally got my unit conversion page up. Very useful for physics or other science classes. It converts a whole lot of crap from metric to American units and vice versa. I basically found some nice scripts on a site that was all cluttered and put it in a nicer, more user friendly format (iframes!!!)

You all my know how I don’t like Ipods… Well they’re okay in a pinch but they’re WAY too expensive, battery life sucks, you cange change the battery if it wears out and it requires you to load your computer with the bloated itunes software. Now, I’m not saying any other MP3 player is better The Dell one is giant and has a bad interface, the Creative Labs and Sony players are decent but do not support m4a formats.

I found a site that compares the Ipod with a casette tape. let’s see the winner: http://homepage.mac.com/danielturek/PhotoAlbum50.html

I accidentally deleted my uploader, so if you click the link, you’ll get an apache directory. All files uploaded are not affected except for the ones I intentionally removed. I have it backed up somewhere and will restore it as soon as I get onto my main computer.

I’ve seen about 10 seconds of commercial preview for this crappy show and it looks awful. All this extreme reality junk is pointless. There have been a million reality shows and we don’t need anymore. It’s supposed to be about some people competing for a job, but in the end they learn that it doesn’t even exist. After the release of the movie My Big Fat Greek Wedding, people overly use the title “My Big Fat __________.” There was another one which aired last season called My Big Fat Obnoxious Fiancé. The fiancé was neither fat nor obnoxious and it was definitely a big phony moneymaking act.

The title is wrong. Again, the “boss” isn’t fat. Plus, this boss idiot has such a fake personality, it’s not even funny. I don’t understand how these people thought they would be getting a real job after seeing what this boss is like. It is clearly obvious just by looking at him, that he is not a rich executive, but your average lowlife schmo. If I were on the show competing for a job and saw my boss acting like that, I’d quit immediately, realize it’s some Fox bullshit and get off my lazy ass and find a real job.

Anyway, what really annoyed me was the preview. There were idiots outdoors running around frantically getting shot with paintballs screaming “Quick! There’s a paper jam.” Please explain to me where I can find a job on the planet earth where people shoot paintballs at you when the photocopier gets jammed? Honestly, this has absolutely nothing to do with business whatsoever. The closest reality show which is halfway decent, gains my approval although I do not watch it and will make people successful in the business world is the Apprentice. This is because Donald Trump knows his business stuff. There’s no nonsense on that show.

If I owned a network and someone approached me with this show, I’d throw the representative out of my window. I don’t know what’s wrong with Fox. They used to be a decent network until everyone went crazy with this reality crap. My point: If anyone is going to watch this crappy show, make sure I slap you. And the sad thing is that people get rich off these crappy shows…
