I started putting ads on my site for google adsense on January 29th. So it’s been a month. How has this trial period gone? I’ve made $24.62. It’s not going to allow me to buy a shiney new BMW, but it’s money I didn’t need to work for. Yay free money!

February 27th, 2005 by pleia2
Over the past year or so I’ve been tuning into WYBE every Saturday night at 11pm to watch Dr. Who. I looked forward to this, since I had only seen bits and pieces of different seasons and this gave me the chance to see them all. When I tuned in last night they had bad […]

The current website is here: http://network.xelium.net The design is great, but it’s old and not expandable. So we’re doing a complete overhaul and looking […]

I guess that means a cold is starting to go around *sigh* That’s no good. *barricades self in cubicle* It’s started snowing. They are were 3-5 inches by this evening, but so far it’s not sticking. I guess this means we […]

This consists of 3 animals, a monkey, a parrot, and a panda. Wait, a panda? Let’s consult wikipedia: The Giant Panda lives in mountainous regions, like Sichuan and Tibet. I’m going to ask The Smithsonian Zoo: […]

February 22nd, 2005 by pleia2
I put the salad dressing on my salad when I made it up this morning, by lunchtime it was all soggy. Doh. Yesterday I woke up and there was 3 inches of snow on the ground. Ack. Because of the horrible roads and lousy road crews in this area I ended up calling work and […]
