Well, I got around to making another style for here.

Based extensively upon the ‘gutenberg‘ style, I offer ‘Salty Sea Chronicles‘, a watery offering lightly peppered with Stock of Resurgere, flavored with a light touch of Firefox. Add to that a hint of Gimp and pngout, and bring it to a slow simmer.
Best served with a side of Iron Chef Chen Kenichi’s Ink Fried Rice (Cuttlefish / Aori Squid Battle). :3

The Firefox is artfully arranged on a bed of pngout, with Gimp. The Stock of Resurgere has a sprig of pngout resting atop its surface, as well — a light soup that packs many flavors to tease your tastebuds.

I rather like it, though it *is* on the darker side of things.
Perhaps I’ll grab a couple more

Pops 2: Passes, Emails, and Pops Reloaded.

I had gotten quite addicted to what seemed to be a little flaw in Prime’s email system here, recently. It would allow me to basically log in via Webmail, log out, FTP in, and grab the mbox file while I was at the library, enabling me to receive large attachments in a reasonable time frame again.

But it looks like our benevolent host has fixed that (I must not have been the only person to have had that issue :p — Or, he actually reads my blog (but doesn’t comment. Oh, come on, lj:gushi:, just one comment? You can also plug hosting while you’re at it! :3) and saw my note).

So, now I need to hunt down a way to get all my files into an mbox file, so I can carry my email home. It lets me plot my responses without tying up mother’s phone line.

On an aside, I start actually working tomorrow. I’m rather excited. :)
