Hell week is finally over. I just have one half of an assignment to do at this point, and I am not too worried about that. I am not worried I think because of my total lack of caring. Pretty scarry eh? Ya, I guess that is what all this school work has done to be. I am just giving up in a sense.

I've read some good articles today. One of them is about the RIAA and how they are suing some collage kids in the states. One of the guys they are suing for about $97.8 billion (ya, I did get the B in there). It's pretty silly in a way. I just want to see how this file sharing is going to work out in the end. I guess if I want it to turn out well, I should do something to help make the world how I want it to be... but I am too damn busy right now relaxing.

The other article that I read today was about coding. It was talking about how some companies have thrown out code when they just should have kept building and building on the old. Refactoring when they need to change / clean things up. Not throwing out all the work that was done before. One one of my old work terms we did exactly this. They didn't like what the old code was, found it too hard to read and work with, so they just tossed it out and started over. In this case it might have been a good decision because of the size of the project. But in larger projects, I can see how this would be a mistake. A big mistake.

The weather here still sucks now... it is snowing and snowing... I just wish that it would stop some. The more it snows, the farther I am from going skydiving or doing any sort of kayaking. I don't think that I will have too much time this year to go tripping, so I won't be able to get away to Killarney, but I might be about to get away to Algonquin. We shall see. I just have to wait for the snow to stop.
