Extreme Makover: Blog Edition

Hello world. I figured its finally time to make some cosmetic changes to my site. Considering my complete lack of knowledge when it comes to writing and reading code the changes might not seem like much... If that is the case for you... bite me.
Its crazy learning to read this code stuff without really any refrences. Its like deciphering interactive hieroglyphics. It feels good to finally figure out what to change after wading through the lot of it for an hour. Only to quickly have that pride and feeling of accomplishmet sucked away as it becomes blatently simple and obvious.
Look for some new links as well.
I got a cool digi camera for chirstmas, so expect all kinds of cool random picures. I used if for my new header that took me frickn hours to get sized correctly. Which i can now do in seconds. Still needs more work. I sound like toad.

Mayan Art Found

Mayan Art


It was actually found a few years ago, but it was recently dated at around the year 150!! This find shows the Maya of the time were much more advanced artisticly the previously thought. Oldest Known Maya Painting Found in Guatemala.

Check this artist rendering from the last article. It shows a cutaway of the pyramid. Since the maya built new temples on top of old, there are usually well preserved temples underneath the rubble left on the outside.
This article is cool, its about how the dude found the murals.
A Mayan find, Indiana Jones-style.

I Said Gerrymandering!




Ive always wanted to use the word gerrymander in a sentence. Not just any sentence, a sentence that uses the word in present tense, as in happening as we speak, today, like in 2005. I never thought i would have the chance.
I remember history class a kid (i even remember the picture used in the previoius link from my books! Do you?) and the word gerrymander seemed to come up often, and everytime i would giggle. It was a funny word, a word no longer needed, one whose use had run its course. Gerrymandering was a thing of the past, a relic, no way it could happen in todays world.
Well here it is.
Tom DeLays redistricting plan inacted by the Texas legislator is going before the Supreme Court in a case that could prove gerrymandering was used to help republicans gain a majority.

Bob Barker for President



Bob Barker is the man. I try to catch The Price is Right everyday. PisR is so righteous i even went to a taping, it was one of the best days of my life.
It was me and the Infamous Agent Ken arriving around 8 in the morning. There are seats, a place to eat, a shop to get some TPiR souveniers, plus you meet other people in line, its a party. We had to wait in line till around 2pm, then they let you in the studio. On your way into the taping you get 15 seconds to tell the producers whatever you want. From that they decide who "Comes on Down!!" Niether of us got called but we had great seats. The studio is half the size you think it is, quite small. We were sitting a few rows up from contestant row, right underneath a crowd microphone. Agent Ken yelled "Bid $800 dollars!!!!" for everything, as loud has he could up into that mic. He even yelled it when they were spinning the big wheel!! "Bid $800!!!!!" over and over, the people sitting around us were getting slightly annoyed, but we didnt care, well at least Ken didnt. I found myself yelling "Bid $420!!!" as loud as i could. It was a riot. They give you a postcard of Bob when you leave that has the date your show will air (its the well used picture above). I was sure they turned the microphone off that was over us, but when we watched a few days later, all you could hear was us screaming. The entire show almost all your heard was $800 dollars with the occasional $420 blaring from the TV. Ive got it on tape somewhere but i cant find it, sucks. Going to Television City and catching a taping of TPiR is great free way to spend the day in smelLA.

So here is a great interview with Bob Barker. Bob is the man. Been a vegeterian for years, fights for animal rights, learned karate from Chuck Norris, dreamed of pitching for the St. Louis Carinals as a kid and was signed for $1 a year by Whitey Herzog (time 6:30 in Part I), has hung with Hefner forever, and you know hes been getting some tail from all those playmates that show off the products on the show.
