Choose a career that fits your personality. If you're an outgoing and bubbly person, you might not want to sit behind a desk and analyze computer systems. If you're shy, you may not want to end up being a traveling sales rep.
Man, I found an email while searching for something else today. An email generated after someone commented on a LiveJournal entry a few years ago. Here goes the post that the person replied to:
> Not much to report... been up since 7:30 this morning, worked two shifts
> today, and got some work done. Watched some documentary on crackheads,
> and then saw some crazy fake kids show on MTV2.
> immmagginnattttionn....imaginaaaaation... i wish my classes were canceled
> due to carbon monoxide in the buildings.. :/
> EDIT: Also, I threw a very ripe banana out of my window. Good-night.
Those were the days! Ok, not one of my deepest entries, but man did things just rattle off back then. Why did I stop entering posts into my LJ? Don't know.. I suppose I was just tired of subjecting people to read every blasted thought that had run through my mind that day. Of course kids like me are super transparent these days, with pictures all over facebook and constant status updates -- but the things that end up in Live Journal are deeper than that "I'm so cool check out what I'm doing right now" facade. I think I'm just afraid of what will come out... wait, is this Live Journal?
It's a long way from your skull to the curb.
9.8 meters/sec of gravity is plenty of speed to crack something.
I've been fortunate enough to not have a concussion after snowboarding or skateboarding. The odds are amazing. How lucky can I get?

Facebook support for Twitter - TweetDeck's New Pre-release version 0.24.1
Posted by Eric
The TweetDeck team has really hit it big with their newest release: Facebook integration. While the social network giants duke it out, people taking Twitter for a test spin no longer have to worry about double-posting to Facebook. It is fully integrated into the newest version of TweetDeck v0.24.1, the Adobe Air-powered desktop application.
The Old Way to link up your Facebook account to Twitter: Twitter has a Facebook Application. You install this to your account, which links your Twitter account up to your Facebook account. What this means is that when you update you Twitter status, your Facebook status gets updated as well. Here's the problem - you cannot choose which Tweets are sent to Facebook; all of them are shot over to Facebook. This makes you seem like a crazy Facebook updater and everything you Tweet probably isn't relevant to the Facebook user audience.
The New Way to link up your Facebook account to Twitter: Get the newest beta version of TweetDeck. While you are writing your tweet, there are two checkboxes to the right. One for Twitter, one for Facebook. You can have one or the other, or both, checked off. This lets you have total control over where your 140 character update will be posted to, all from the same spot, all without having to open your browser, and with the same TwitPic and URL shrinking ease you are used to.
Other things to note: There is also a Facebook column you can enable with the button on the top of TweetDeck, which shows you the latest updates of all your Facebook friends in the same column. Actions on the friend's user thumbnail pic let you email their status update and re-tweet their status. If the user is online, you can click a green status icon next to them and open up Facebook chat, or just view their profile if they aren't online. The column updates itself every 60 seconds.
I'm just a typical Twitter user and even with all of my columns filled up, I barely ever go over the maximum amount of API calls TweetDeck makes to Twitter, and haven't had a problem as of yet, even though this is a beta release. Bravo

Went on a photo hunt with Christina after work today in the Eastworks building. I took this opportunity to come up with a new photo workflow for processing, touching, saving, and uploading.
The Eastworks building has a ton to offer a photographer, and I'm looking forward to exploring deeper.
100th post!
r "Hike" Part 3: The descent and ensuing injury on 12seconds.tv
We made it about 200 feet above the base, and it took 3 times as long to get back down. Getting down included a stint of me losing footing (despite being crab-walk style) and sliding down the sharp rocks frozen into the ice for about 30 feet (no kidding).
A very good sumeritan helped us by retrieving a backpack and a hiking stick that were both ditched in an effort to better our balance and overall integrity. Unfortunately, when survival mode wore off a bit, we realized we actually need these things. Mystery man with cleats graciously got them both for us.
If you're out there, we owe you one. Or two.
