Dames, Trains, and Bicycle Wheels Thu, Mar 1st 2007 6:18 pm

Well, that was a downer, though I’d like to think I’m actually doing much better now. I’m studying up for my M license so I don’t have to do any waiting come spring to get riding my dad’s crotch rocket (and possibly my very own soon after), and I’ve […]

Army of One Sun, Feb 11th 2007 3:54 pm

I’m becoming increasingly aware of a problem I have: one of futilely pursuing perfection. It affects my work, my play, and even my relaxation.

I’d say I’m mostly affected whenever trying to develop something. Everything I’ve ever attempted to […]

Offtone Design Tue, Nov 21st 2006 9:41 am

Well this site’s been getting stale for the last little while, but I’ve a good reason! I’ve spent the time working on Offtone’s business-only sister site, offtonedesign.com. Hopefully this new look and independence will attract some interesting jobs […]

NOTICE: E-mail issues... Sun, Nov 12th 2006 6:35 pm

After a wave of computer problems this weekend, I managed to lose all e-mails from Friday to this morning. I got them, didn’t see them, and lost them. If you sent me something, please re-send. Sorry for the inconvenience.

Woo. Got it all back! […]

Take THAT, Spammers! Thu, Nov 2nd 2006 5:55 pm

Due to the growing flood of spam I receive everyday from the forms on this site, I’ve implemented a human-verification tool. It should be familiar to most people: Just type in the letters and numbers you see on the image. Humans can read them, […]

Trust me, It's Better Fri, Oct 13th 2006 7:08 pm

I rewrote the backend to offtone.com. I don’t think there’s a single bit of source that matches the old version anymore. That’s a good thing.

Anyway, I won’t bore you with the details because they obviously weren’t aesthetic and you, the user, […]

My Linux Woes Wed, Sep 13th 2006 2:48 pm

I’ve fallen into an annual ritual of downloading and installing any random flavour of the Linux operating system. After this morning’s little ceremony, I think I’ve figured out why I’ve always gleefully annihilated the data its installation […]

No Respect from Canada Wed, Aug 16th 2006 11:08 am

I was referred to LoveFilm.com by a link on my brother’s site www.thewolfshack.com. I noticed they had a whole section devoted to free “shorts” that could be downloaded and enjoyed, seemingly by all. So I read through the list of available shorts on […]

Bigger is Better Mon, Jun 26th 2006 8:16 pm

I’ve finally gotten around to upsizing the images displayed on the site. Unfortunately, the images whose originals were deleted lost some quality, but I don’t think it’s “awful”. Maybe it is… Oh well.

Some photos now have a link to their original […]

Polishing Things Off Wed, Jun 21st 2006 6:57 pm

If you visit my site frequently, you’ll notice some subtle changes. Mostly graphical, but I’ve also decided to change the front page’s layout.

It used to display recent content from the “writings” category, but now it displays ALL new content (up […]
