Seriously... That's not me!

Where's Waldo?

Yea, that was repetitive. Sorry. Check the animated stick fight at the bottom of the page. Guess who did that. Yup, me! Who says I don't have a creative bone in my body =P

Wonders never cease! I found this working page by chance. I was using the file manager to demonstrate my earlier successes in Flash and I happened upon this working gem. Furthermore, I've astoundingly distinguished between a wonderfully working http://hashishguru.fortunecity.com and a decrepedly broken http://members.fortunecity.com/hashishguru. There is only one index.html file in the directory and I only have 1 login. I can't connect the dots on this riddle so I'll just use the url that works =P.
On a sidenote - Everquest has been washed away by World of Warcraft. G-d alone knows how many hours I've wasted in this game. It's earned me power in a fantasy world where time is rewarded more than skill and I've little to say for the majority of the community it fosters. I've seen a deep lack of creativity and ingenuity of this community at large. Especially when I compare it to my experiences in Rogue Spear where there was excitement and eagerness to learn and express yourself through digital media in the majority of the community. Are my days of a gamer who geeks myself out on Flash, HTML, Photoshop gone? Have I grown to realize that.... woah.... news flash... I was going on a rant. I'm gonna stop short, not too short but short. I am surprised at some of the things I've done in the past. Surprised for example, at the entrance to my birthright site. Did I pull that off well or what? I mean ... DAMN !! I like it!!. BTW, the animated menu works again. Product of that new URL. Guess that means it's been working all along and it's just taken me a year and a half to realize it. Before I go, one last thing. I don't play my necro any more. I believe he made it WAY past 17 and in his 50s somewhere. I quit playing that game a while back. Now I play World of Warcraft on a PvP server. I'm max level, 60, with excellent gear. I'm far from being the dominant force on the server but there are precious few who can take me down when I'm ready for them. So long for now!

I accidentally killed my animated pop up menu, there by making this site temporarily useless to me. I am now forced to play some Everquest to vent my frustration. Good night again.

Haven't done much with my life but I have started playing Everquest. Coincidence? I think not. Cliche? Obviously. The site is now officially named The Hash Den. Rather unremarkably I have nothing else to say right now. Xept "I gotta 17 Necro who is gonna ding tonight! GG" So with that I say G'night, travel well and be safe.

Hi

Several changes to the page. The pop up menu on the left was created with Fireworks but the image the menu is anchored to was made with Flash.

So, yeah... I spent some time cleaning up the code and came to a realization: Dreamweaver falls shy from perfect but it still really freaking rocks. I particularly like the built in FTP and remote site management but that is only one example of how this program owns. On the down side, like all GUI HTML editors, it leaves snippets of crap code that do nothing but increase the file size. But Dreamweaver still formats the text well and if you keep normal conventions, I didn't, following logic is quite simple. Anyhow, BAH !!! Muhahahaha... and yeah... a template is no bid deal, I suck.

WTF... A template... OMFG, I am using a template!!!

I've done a lot of reorganizing of my files and migrating pages to other sites. I have two new Geocities accounts:
http://www.geocities.com/adamratkinson/
and
http://www.geocities.com/hashishguru/
All of my Israel pages have been migrated to AdamRAtkinson. I haven't decided what I will do with HashishGuru but I have a gut feeling it will augment this page... somehow... sometime.
On a side note... my parents finally got a dog they've been wanting for sometime now... good stuff!

Wow... has it been a long time since I have updated this or what?
I have been kicking around the idea of getting my computer up and running again... I guess you can tell I finally made the plunge.
I would like to say that I've been absent because I have been extremely busy but the truth is I have done nothing with my life
Working on this site may be the most ambitious undertaking I have made in the past two years
I can't wait to see how I handle it

Signing off for the night. Hope I can get back to it soon

Well, this is it... the page is finally up!!! I didn't get any sleep last night, as I was just trying to get this far in the page.... I'm gonna take a break from the layout and try and make some buttons that please me... peace out.

On a side note... I have had the movie The Wall play consecutively 2 times now and working on my 3rd.

After a couple hours of fidgeting with 4 unique video cards, I finally got my dual monitor card setup. Two monitors is better than what I had initially expected-no way I can go back now.

Well, I think I messed up with that speaking gig. I left a convoluted message and made the cardinal sin of calling again to correct the information and left gibberish. I must have demonstrated some lack of speaking ability.
Birthright Israel has finally replied to my request to guest speak. From what I gather they need Birthright Alumni, like me, to answer questions for youths who are new to the program. I think it will be fun and educational and it's even a mitzvah. Maybe this is just a pipe dream, or maybe a bong dream rather, but this may turn into another trip to Israel... I hope
As all of you know I am continuously trying to improve the quality of the page, as well as provide content. If you have any suggestions, or ideas drop me a line. My email address and MS Messenger account name can be found at the bottom of the page.
