Celsius to Fahrenheit Converter - C to F / F to C

Posted on | October 5, 2008 | No Comments

Although there are several other projects I should have been working on, I wanted to play around with Ajax and PHP a little.  I am always converting temperature from F to C for my Canadian friends.  I uploaded a Celsius to Fahrenheit Converter today.  Simply enter in a numerical value in either of the two fields, and the C to F / F to C conversion will happen ajaxmatically.

GOP Logo / Republican Logo

A while back, I found a need for a republican logo in a project I was working on.  I couldn’t find a good vector of the GOP logo, so I created one.

Location Update - Vancouver, Washington - Portland Oregon

Posted on | October 1, 2008 | No Comments

The railroad has me on the move again.  I have been in Vancouver Washington a couple of days now (but staying on the Portland, Oregon side. )

I wish I could be out this way all year round.  It is beautiful country compared to the Mid-West.  I may be on the move tomorrow morning.  Where?  I am not sure yet.  I will keep you posted.

Cheers!

Motel 6 - Sneaky Sneaky against Smokers

Posted on | September 29, 2008 | No Comments

Today, I checked into a fairly decent (for the money) Motel 6 today in Northern Oregon.  Typically, I request non-smoking rooms (even though I have a tendancy to smoke a little.)  Non-smoking rooms don’t smell near as bad, there are not burns through the covers, etc.

I was suprised to see an ashtray in my room.  Also posted in the room were a couple of signs warning you not to smoke and that the fine is $250.00.

Inquisitively, when I went outside to smoke, I asked the night clerk what the reasoning behind the ashtrays were.  She said “Oh, they are a trick ashtray.”  A trick ashtray.  Ok, this is a first.  I asked her to explain.  She said “If someone decides to smoke in the room, they typically will use the ashtray.  The sticker (non-smoking sticker on the bottom) will roll up and we will know that someone smoked in their room.”

Wow.  I guess, even if the ashtray is cleaned out, this sticker is permanently destroyed. Good thing I choose to go outside.

Location Update - Bellingham, Washington

Posted on | September 27, 2008 | No Comments

Travels have finally took me to the west coast.  I am currently in Bellingham, Washington, but soon to be heading towards Vancouver, Washington / Portland Oregon.

It was great to get up to the North West.  I had a chance to visit with my darling little angel Emily.  I miss her way too much.  It’s very hard to live a life without regrets.  If only I had more time to be with her.
