It’s completely crazy in Seattle right now. My friend Steve works in downtown Seattle and he mentioned seeing a cloud of tear gas waft by where he works this afternoon.

The sad thing is all the violence and rioting that broke out today completely undermine any legitimate protests. What a mess. I wonder how long it’s going to take downtown Seattle to recover once the conference is over?

Hmmm. Looks like Nedstat is broken right now. I tried to check the hits for my weblog and it told me I didn’t have an account with them. Since I knew Lake Effect used this service as well I tried its link and came up with the same result. Lame.

Here’s an MSNBC report on an awesome new replacement for the wheelchair. Heck, I bet there are some computer geeks that would take this over an aeron chair.

Today was not a good day for the Seahawks.

It also wasn’t much of a day as far as me accomplishing anything.

I think I’m going to be gladder than usual that I don’t live in Seattle this week when the World Trade Organization comes to town. Seattle Weekly has a special supplement offering coverage of the event.

Wired has an interesting article on the BCS ranking system. I didn’t realize they were using several systems side by side.

Where does the time go? I totally intended to have an entry yesterday, but between sleeping in and visiting family and friends for two dinners I completely forgot by the end of the day.

I finished off the day yesterday with a trip to the theater to watch Toy Story II. I enjoyed it even more than the first movie.

Look out! Here’s all the information you need to turn your favorite plastic brick based toys into a wargame!

Whew! Looks like Blogger is finally back up and running properly. I was all set to do some serious linking early this morning (I have the day off since I worked all day Sunday), but I was running into some scary looking ODBC query errors.

I’m debating whether or not to go catch the first local showing of End of Days, the latest Arnold vehicle. I guess I’d better decide pretty quickly here since it’s showing in an hour.

I took the plunge and went to the first showing. Epinion: End of Days

Arrgh! Blogger did something weird to yesterday’s entry. I think I’ve got things corrected now.

Got a question about Mathematics? Go to the CRC Concise Encyclopedia of Mathematics. Everything mathematical from Abacus to Zsigmondy Theorem.

Holy site personalization! Nike’s starting to let you customize your shoes online. And that includes putting a Nike approved eight character identifier on the back of the shoes!

MacWeek has part two in a three part series on installing and using LinuxPPC. I’m hoping to play with my LinuxPPC box tonight, we’ll see if I can fit it in.

I’m taking Mozilla Milestone 11for a spin and it seems to be working fairly well. There are still clearly some things to be ironed out, but it’s looking like Microsoft hasn’t won the browser war yet.

Ended up putting in a long day at work today so I didn’t have any time to put much into the old weblog. Now I’m headed of to The World Is Not Enough.

Well, it’s Apple Cup weekend here in the state of Washington. Today’s game will be the 92nd meeting between the WSU Cougars and the Washington Huskies. Unfortunately I’m going to have to miss the first half because of basketball practice.

Speaking of basketball practice- yesterday I was made painfully aware of my lack of physical conditioning when I had to take part in several basketball drills and full court play with the Ferris JV team. Too much computer time the last several months I think.

Back to the Apple Cup: Washington coach Rick Neuheisel’s comments on the 1999 Apple Cup.
