John should have done this, but the majority of John's time is dedicated to www.project-celery.com. You should go check it out, and expect a full writeup when it is done.

After 2.5 years of hard work (when you have a day job), I finally graduated with a M.A in Educational Administration.

It will be official when Rider approves it (hopefully in two weeks)

Update: Apparently I have an incomplete. I have three outstanding things. Hopefully they will be turned in tomorrow.

I'm really sad to see Pownce go. I am a web 2.0 whore, but I really fell in love with Pownce. The community was great, moreso than any other virtual community. In trying to explain the difference between twitter and pownce, I offered people the following advice. Twitter was simple updates that are quick and informative. Pownce offered the media rich long winded updates with threaded replies. Your question is probably someone elses, and an answer helped everyone.

Monday's I have my final class at Rider. Now, I do hate Rider, but I have to do it. Using a Fark Cliche, if I'm writing about it, hilarity ensued. It starts me walking into the professor's office.

As I walk in the two professors, in unison, say "Hey Chaimtime," in a very happy happy voice.

My response was "Is this your way of telling me I failed my comps without making me feel bad?"

Their response was "No, but why didn't you show up to class." After a blank stare on my face my professor says, "Oh, you didn't know."

My favorite non chaimtime site, www.consumerist.com is for sale. Someone needs to buy them.

I need to lose weight again. When I was on Atkins there was something I noticed that I think I can duplicate. When I was on Atkins I lost weight mainly by NOT eating out. Because very few restaurants were "carb friendly" I made it a point not to eat out. Well I want to do the same thing again. I think I can lose weight by only eating what is in my house. I may eat more, but in the end, I'm aware of all food that goes into my body. I won't go to quick check and get a sandwich.

I took the video for Tim. It is hilarious, and very well done.

I want to thank Erin, John, and Hannacek for keeping the site updated. I don't like to discuss my job on the site, and that is what is consuming my time. I'm working behind the scenes to bring in more writers, and commenters. Tell your friends that I'm looking for people to update.

Here is my thought of the moment. Do I need a netbook, specifically the new dell offering.

Let's define the definition of need to include things that actually have a use for. No, I'm not going to die by not buying one, but consider the price point.

Currently I have an aging desktop, which is still very functional. I do everything on it. I then have a MacBook, which I got before the netbook revolution. It is small (not netbook small), and it is very very capable. I also have an iPhone.

I'm opening the blog to writers that want to blog. I'm looking for people who have something to say. It is a free form blog about anything you choose. If you want to life blog that is fine, or if you have a theme that is good too. All I ask is that everyone here is tasteful. I am a teacher with potential high school students reading.

If interested, register. I have to approve you. It will take a day or so, but I'll email you when I do.
