Big Fat Elephant’s Smocks
Four websites in one week? No wonder we’re off to the pub tonight! Well it’s because of Jamie’s birthday but it doesn’t harm us to celebrate the four websites last week either. You can find out more about the websites, including the muse website, in our web news section.
We’re also in the final stages of going through the first revision of our own website. Since the launch three months ago we’ve had a fantastic amount of positive feedback. Even the crtical feedback has been constructive. As a company that likes to practice what we preach we’re taking those comments and making the website a wee bit more friendly and adding additional content in some current sections. It’s still a couple of days away and we’re still wondering if the phrase “View Our Past Hot Action” is acceptable. Find out first if we put it in by signing on to our mailing list that you can access via the news page.
Lots of cool stuff. Macromedia Labs was launched yesterday and I downloded the new framework for Flex, the technology that I discussed for creating rich internet applications. So far I’m impressed and we’re looking forward to getting right in about it to see just what we can do to make our client’s customer’s that wee bitty richer. That’ll give something for Stuart to get his teeth into when he starts tomorrow.
A shout out to those people who were on my residential course last weekend at a nice hotel with terrible, terrible service. It was a great weekend, hilarious even. It was good to meet 12 or so lovely people, each one made me laugh very, very hard. Top notch. I didn’t get to my bed until at least 4am which made learning the next day some what of a challenge. Still if it wasn’t for everyone’s good humour, insight and interest I wouldn’t have learned a thing. Thanks guys and see you all next week.
What else? Well I’m hoping to announce four new clients by the end of the month, stay tuned for that, and I have been invited to Dolph’s birthday celebrations in Glasgow. It’s the glamour, the only reason I do this job, the glamour. Networking event Friday morning, the Angel’s Ambulance on Friday night as well as Sean’s birthday, grandparent’s 60th Wedding Anniversary on Sunday, Mr Murray on Monday and all other sorts of stuff next week.
And I’m waning on Lost. Has Lost jumped the shark?
Take it easy,
S

Loved that jumped the shark thing! I do have a few probs with Lost. I still love it, but, yeah… For one thing, I don’t like Jack. For me, he’s one of those characters your supposed to like, but don’t. I’d love to add to that jump the shark thing on a few points, as well. For one thing, Charlie’s resurrection was just wonked to hell and gone. He might have gotten a cracked sternum out of that chest-pounding thing, but that’s about it. Plus Locke is making glue out of pig fat? No, you make lard out of pig fat. You make glue from skin, hooves and bones. And Kate can track a wild pig, while Sawyer can’t? Get real. Sawyer is from the south, which is crawling with feral hogs. And Sawyer didn’t get that accent in Atlanta. But, like I said, I still like the show.
60th wedding anneversary, wow! Good to see people sticking it out. It can be done, but people are forgetting how, I think. Me, I’ve been with the same man since ‘72. And it has been worth it. Congrats to the “newlyweds”! That just rocks.
Donovan and Julie had a co-ed baby shower. I highly recommend it. Steamed oysters and flowing liquor (not for the mom, though) insured a good time was had by all. The cake said “Daddy finally put the stem on the apple”, which was very well recieved. Julie has a childhood friend who is, shall we say, not the sharpest knife in the drawer. When told the baby shower was co-ed, she said, and I quote, “That’s the baby’s name?”
Well, big man, when you’re right, your right: never eat anything bigger than your head. Proof of the soundness of this advice was found recently in the everglades: http://www.heraldtribune.com/apps/pbcs.dll/article?AID=/20051006/NEWS/510060326
well, that’s about it for now. Keep on keepin’ on…
