Back For The ‘08

January 6th, 2008

Ok, finally back from a crazy holiday seazon and a hectic end to 2007 in Microsoft-land. Ready to get back into the swing of things and start causing trouble on the web again. Since it is the new year there are some resolutions and to-dos floating around in my head, I will do a little brain dump…

2008 To-Dos:

  • Remember Thirdi’s b-day (Feb 8th)
  • Head back to Jamaica!
  • Become a master of Ticket To Ride (Europe)
  • Post more art on PhilNick and complete a re-design (need to upgrade Wordpress, get rid of my portfolio crap and look for some new things to add)
  • Continue to play Halo 3 until I puke
  • Go camping on Orcas Island
  • Work out more, eat better, blah, blah, blah…

Looking forward to a great year!

    Welcome back! I was starting to wonder if I was the last foolio still posting randomness for the world to enjoy. Can wait to see the new design and catch some new content.

    Of all birthdays to remember- this is the one I hope you will forget!! My gamer tag has nothing to do with my age!!

    Are you thirdi this year??? I always read your name as third-eye and alwasy thought it funny on LIVE when people read it as thirty.

    Ah yeah, the big 30 for Thirdi!

    I will be there before I know it. And hopefully still be posting on the internetz tubes for the long haul.

    For some reason I thought you were a year older than me thidi but we’re the same age, well you got 4 months on me exactly. Rock On \m/

    nickiebee if we post to our own sites for a lifetime, assuming that we are able to do this for 70 years from now, especially with fancy gadgets that will think our posts including art to WP, we will spend:

    350.00 on domain name registration
    (5.00/yr w/o increase for 70yrs)

    6,720.00 for storage
    (8.00/mth w/o increase for 70yrs)

    7,070.00 each + gazillions on tech toys.

    Hellz yeah, it will be interesting to see what someone’s personal website will be like in a few years. Like a street address, it will be ubiquitous I’m sure.

    Hell, eventually we might all host our own. That might be the next major evolution for PhilNick, especially if I a stay-at-home server decides to shack up with me.

    Fo’ ’sho be hooking up my own diggs once I have a physical address that is my own. Although I hate managing a network, I enjoy it’s freedom and if it wasn’t for work, but for play, I’d love it.
