The money I was counting on to get me to SF for WordCamp isn't going to make it to me in time, so I am going to be a no show.

I was really looking forward to meeting so many of you, and cornering Matt to have a little chat about current events in our community.  Looks like that will have to wait as well.

Have a good time for me people, and give Bryan a proper congrats for joining Automattic.

And as you can see I have decided to go back to my normal theme.  I hope you enjoyed this little stroll down spanish lane as much as I did.

But I felt like having half of my site in Spanish, so I activated this very interesting theme.

In more serious matters, I have been swamped at work, as well as on a sideproject of mine I will be unveiling soon.  Should be interesting when I launch my new venture... to say the least.

Until then, stay sharp and stay lean.

Nevermind, the machine is now spoken for.

I am considering selling my powerbook g4 and I was wondering if there are any intersted parties out there.

The machine is wonderful, especially for travelling; my needs have just changed and this bad little boy is going to waste here at the Davis compound.  Here are some specs:

And that somebody is me.  Today is my 29th birthday... the last of my twenties going by.

I have already received some very cool presents (lego's from my wife who rocks!), but I find myself lusting after this Skype phone from Netgear.  This is some seriously cool tech, and with Skype currently running a deal where all domestic skypeout calls are free, this could be very handy indeed.

If someone is feeling generous, you can buy it for me off my wishlist

You know it is time to just launch the thing, and take a breather.

I started out this particular design full of hope and energy; after about 3 days the energy was gone and hope was on a south bound train out of Chicago.  I think I am honestly losing my ability to design for the web.

I am planning on writing up an analysis of this design and the thoughts behind it once it is in a better state, but until then go look at some really good design, courtesy of Veloso the wonderboy and Matt the rough, smudgy... scratchy guy.

Anyway go, look at good design, and hope Mike gets his act together and launches a site sometime today.

Oh and for those of you out there not blessed with large screens and high res fear not; I am prepping an alternate version of the site that will be much kinder to your constrained proportions.

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

Well comments are now working again, but they are kinda ugly still.  I should have them 'not fugly' in the next hour or so, bear with me.  Oh and let the commenting begin!

I am in the middle of things with the reboot; alas a child and eleventy-billion projects means less time for this site as I would like.

I hope to have the complete rebooted Sillyness ready by the end of the day, but for right now, I need to be off to bed.  And yeah, the first thing I will be updating tomorrow is the comments form, so for right now, no commenting.

It's so lonely looking now, isn't it?

Go on to flickr for more sweet shots.

I was welcomed this morning with a flickr mail that let me know that someone had created a Being Chris J. Davis flickr group.

I have not laughed that much in a long time, so thanks LL.
