Cathedral

Monday, October 21st, 2002

On Sunday after church we got to go to someone’s place for a young adults lunch (thanks The Wilsons, I think). There were probably about 20 young adults there. Smileychris and I were both there just talking and I leaned back to put my drink down on a shelf behind me and there it was – a Cathedral board. I’d seen and read about this game at stores like Mindscapes, and some touristy stores, and was intrigued by it. For some reason Mr Wilson came over and taught Chris, myself, and a friend of mine called Green (most ppl call him Jay, but he’s not the Jay you people know as MonkeyJay) how to play. A fascinating game it is…

Oh my frikken head, so wasteeeed…

Last night I met my long lost twin sister, Peaches from RunAwaySquirrels.com. OK, so she’s not really my twin sister, but she might as well be – We chatted for over 2.5 hours and believe me, it was scary how much we have in common. Peaches bet me to posting the highlights of the chat on her site. Believe me now?

my business card

So, yeah, I’m Lead Developer for Instinct. Been so since about Feburary, but now it’s official cos I gotz the business card! Cheers to that funky Monkeyjay for the design, and that funky Gareth guy for the logo.

I’ve been mucking round with WAP. Here’s a little WAP game I made a while back. You’ll need a WAP capable phone, or a WAP Emulator. I made it cos we were trying to get in bed with Telecom, but ended up flagging cos they are so square. They wanted to focus on WAP, which really is a non-event. Meh, the game has a mini-wow factor. If Mufasa (my boss at instinct — yes the truth comes out) lets me, I’ll let you guys have the source code.

Having a mobile is pretty sweet now. If you really want to know, my phone number is on the business card above :D . Call me if you want, I dare ya! I was thinking about ringtones, and how people like to show them off (yeah, i’m talking from my own bragging). I got the theme from Tetris for my ringtone. Why do people like myself want to expose some hapless human being into listening to my ringtone, especially when they probably won’t recognise the tune? Mind you, Monkeyjay has ‘Funky Town’ for his ringtone… everyone loves it, and hates it cos it sticks in your mind like hot tar on your jandals.

Did a bit of snooping: found this page of KDL variants. I’m not on IM tonight – left my zip disk with trillian on it at my day job.
