Dear Senator Cogdill,

Columbia State Historic Park is not only a Historic Park, it's also the living center of Columbia, the community to which I proudly belong. If that park were to close, the state would be paying unemployment for possibly hundreds of people in our town, devastate the economy of the town, and lower the standard of living for everyone in the area. It's ridiculous to think that the state can save money by ruining local economies and discouraging tourism overall. This is not a line-item. It's people's livelihoods, and it's our states cultural identity.

Sincerely,
Richard Call

Dear ********,

My name is Richard Call and I work at an office that can have about 50 people in it depending on the economy. I'm their IT Technician.

Every time I visit our vending machine, I have a new problem with the vending company. First of all, the soda machine is a Gatorade branded machine, that has no Gatorade in it. There aren't prices on most items, and the machine displays nothing until you insert money. Sometimes the machine vends and sometimes it doesn't. I'm so fed up that I'd like to start my own vending company, and service this building exclusively for a while.

Unfortunately, I don't have any capital or credit. But when I came to your website, I got an idea.

You probably know that your website has problems. What you don't know is to what extent these problems are preventing potential customers from becoming actual customers.

I happen to be an excellent web designer, and have already identified the cause of your web site's problems and know how to fix them.

What I propose is that I take on a complete redesign of your site, and in exchange, you furnish me with a GF-19 Snack Vendor & CB300 Satellite Cold Drink Vendor Combination.

You get more customers, and I get to eliminate the frustration of my vending company. If you would like a recent example of my work, check out ******* . that site is perfectly functional, and has more going on behind the scenes to open communication, and prevent spam, as well as being easy to maintain, and to collect lots of visitor usage statistics.

I give you a functional site. You give me a functional machine. How does that sound?

Sincerely,
Richard Call

I've coded a new web site for the company I work for. If you happen to know where I work, you should check it out.

This is a collective blog, created to share with the world some of the glorious links that would otherwise fade into inbox obscurity. Right now, the authors are myself and two of my coworkers.

These are the links I would have forgotten to share with you.

What's everybody doing?

On Friday I got 12 Fillings. I was in the chair for almost 4 hours. It wasn't so bad. I like chewing stuff. I just have to pay for all of it.

I'm still working on The Project. I've just decided to approach it differently. What this means is more planning leading into less work, and a better environment. The teaser page may not come out for a while, so you get teaser text.
I just nearly posted my map of ideas but I think I'll save that for until development has gone a bit further. I'm a paranoid person. More to come...

Also, the world's shortest man, 20 year old He Ping Ping, met with the woman with the world's longest legs*, Svetlana Pankrtova in London. Ping Ping is about 29 and a half inches tall, while Svetlana's legs are nearly 52 inches long. So, obviously, they must be photographed together like this:



Take note of these fashion previews. I can't wait to see how it translates into our retail selection next spring! I can already predict what my hair's going to look like.
