Gogl's Journal: "This is required"

Well, seeing as how I've sort-of decided that this is sort-of some sort of semi-"blog" (even though I've grown to despise the word, sort-of), I suppose I should do something blog-like and post a bunch of random trivialities.

The subject is two pronged. First off, what I'm doing is, in a sense, "required" of a blog or blog-like thing (the random trivialities). Second off, I was amused to discover that Slashcode felt it necessary to inform the user that the subject field is required (indeed, it says "This is required" above it).

That aside, I'm sort of scared. /. has been my start page for awhile, which is bad enough, but just today... yes, I made /. my desktop. I perfectly sized it so all my icons are on the left side, Trillian is on the right, and /. is in the middle. Of course the page itself is customized, got rid of all the excess graphics so it loads quick, customized the Slashboxes (including of course the custom Slashbox), and etc. If you wish to see the horror, here's a screenshot:

Anyway, hrmmmm another triviality... oh yes, this will only be funny to you if you've had the misfortunate of taking CSC171-172 at the University of Rochester, but...

And yes, I'm aware I'm posting all the urls as plain old text, not bothering with HTML formatting or anything. That's because I'm lazy.

Well, hrmmm, a lot of blogs list the music they're listening to, right? Well, I'm listening to "Black, Brown, and Beige" by Duke Ellington. As for "My Mood", it is whatever it is. I'll have to get back to you all on that. Not that there is anyone I'm getting back to in the first place, because aside from the one anonymous quasi-humor quasi-troll that responded to my first woeful journal entry, I doubt anyone is reading this. But we shall see...

Oh, and if you are reading this and you don't have an account here at /., just post anonymously, in case you found this in the link I put in my AIM profile or something... or don't post at all, or whatever...

FortKnox is the Central Hub of the main /. journal community. Around 300 or so friends. Sweet stuff. :) Just go through his friends / fan list and add everybody who has posted in their journal recently.

I was actually well aware that FortKnox was a pretty important figure in /. in general, in fact I recall one of the /. editors even making fun of him and how many comments he's made. Shrug.

Right now I'm a tad busy with a wonderful comp sci project, but depending on how it goes perhaps later today I'll look into adding people to my friends list and seeing how this goes.
