Well, I talk to a very nice guy on IRC and he talked me into using the Oracle database for my project. I'm just going to have to learn how to use that Oracle server. I'm going to download and install the Oracle 8 tomorrow. Oracle, hmm. I like the sound of it, but how much hair am I going to loose?

Another day, another dollor. I need a vacation. What do you think, Woodward skate camp?

Welp, another day fighting with Oracle. I don't like Oracle. I'd take MySQL any day. Its just so hard to use. None of the commands make sense. Anyway, if I can just figure out how to "show tables" and export the data, I'll be happy. Then I can put it all in the MySQL server andbe done with it. Then I can do better things, like build the sites and do the database programming with PHP3. Off to bed I go...

wow... long time without news. I've been c0ding lots of PHP3 script and I've been real busy. New on my plate is a cool webtracking system for tracking all kinds of stuff. It puts the data into a MySQL database. I can query all kinds of different reports with it. I've been very busy with projectX also. Things are rolling in that department. I think I'll be deep into c0de soon with that, and I'll have to give up my day job... if I can pay my bills on time. All I can think about now is c0ding PHP3 scripts. Its cool, I like PHP3. I'm going to have to write some c0de in C here in a few days to take care of my UsageTracking system. It needs a way to archive/delete data each month and calc totals. I think I'll just do it in C, unless I learn Perl real fast. hmmm... Perl...

My Palm kiks ass y0.

Internet Appliance is also going good. I think that they are going to have some cool new stuff comming out soon. I'll be happy when they go to GLIBC, but too bad they are going to use RedCrap...errr...Hat. I've got a project that uses Debian and its looking good. I just need to write all the admin screens for it. I'm going to use PHP3 y0! Databases are the way to go. Everything should be in databases. Thats what I've asked for a long time ago. Ok, I'm done.

All day hacking session today. Two Red Bull's later and I'm done with the dynamic specials pages. Now I have to finish the Add-Dealer-Admin and the Add/Edit Contacts pages. On a different note, I went to the skatepark today to chill a little and it sucked. Way too many people for me. That park is packed all the time now. Whatever. Oh, my palm pilot kiks yo! Now I know that my workstation is perfect for full scale developement. This whole day, not a single problem. Linux r0xx0rz, try that with winblowz. I need to find a good development IDE that I can edit remote files. I guess I could just keep them local and then scp them over some how. I'll look into some IDE's after I get the admin screens going. PS, my WebCAM sucks. Welp, I've got to get hacking on some more webpages. They need to be done by tomorrow so I can show them at the meeting in the morning. Busy...

Welp, things are very busy for me. Too busy I think. How else am I going to make money to pay the rent though. Project X is comming along very well. Internet Appliance is going well also, for some wierd reason... hmmm... I finally fixed the sqeak on my bike. Looks like mother nature forgot summer again... Bayarea... Maybe I'll go to the skate park this weekend. Too busy though.

WoooHooo, I got a Palm III the other day and might I say, it r0xx0rz! I like it. It totally kicks ass. Now I'm going to get the clear color case for it, and the cool color stylist, and something to carrie it in, and ....

Lets just say, I like it.

Wow, what a day. Internet Appliance had the first VPN eval today, and it was a success. Worked perfect. Not one problem. I like that. I also started working on a customer support database for keeping track of customers in the office. I hate tech support, why can't I get a nice programming or MIS job. Its always tech support kind of stuff. All well. When I get rich I'll just kick back and write c0de all day long. Bye!

Wow, I even fixed the archive section. It will now only show the last 10 messages that I have posted.

Welp, San Diego was ummm fun. Got to check out some cool Cobalt Qubes. They just look good, don't they... Too bad they don't do very much, for the price that is. I guess they just look good. I'm going to add a feedback to the news entries here, that will be fun. Maybe tomorrow.
