  <title>working again</title>
  <author>biglongtool@yahoo.com</author>  <link>http://merlinstool462.livejournal.com/11428.html</link>
  <description>Well, I just finished my first week at Blizzard in their Cinematics department. It looks like it will be a good place to work and for the first time I was not given an end date on my first day of work.  It is an amazing relief not to have to worry about where I am going to work next.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This also means I played WoW for the first time as well.  We will see how that goes.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I am still living in good old San Clemente, so I will be part of the great OC for a while.</description>

  <description>Well, I have finally finished working on &quot;Barnyard&quot;.  Last Friday was my last day and now I am officially unemployed.  I encourage everyone to see my movie on August 4th.  I put a good year and a half into it and I think it is actually a good movie, unlike Catwoman.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The last few months have been crazy.  I think I worked for three weeks straight without a day off.  But it was fun.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I am pretty burnt out.  So, my plan is to take a month or two off before I start looking for work.  Which means I will be able to go up to Seattle for a week or two.  I was thinking around August 20th-ish. It will be good to see everyone.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Right now I am on the east coast for two weeks.  I am going to Siggraph (the graphics and animation convention) in Boston.  It should be pretty fun, lots partying and networking.</description>

  <title>Books</title>
  <author>biglongtool@yahoo.com</author>  <link>http://merlinstool462.livejournal.com/3250.html</link>
  <description>So, I need your help.  Over the years I have missed out on reading a lot of books.  I think that it is time for me to read all of the books I have missed.  Or at least try to fill in the gaps.  What I need from you is a list of all the books that I should read before I die.  Any type of book, you name it.  But it should to be either something that everyone should read or really good.  You can assume that I have not read anything.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Thanks for your help!</description>

When something&lt;br&gt;which you need cannot be found, you make it&lt;br&gt;yourself.  In writing and in talking with&lt;br&gt;people, you value clarity and precision; your&lt;br&gt;friends may not realize how important that is.&lt;br&gt;When necessary, you are prepared to be a&lt;br&gt;mediator in conflicts between your friends.&lt;br&gt;You are very rational, and you think of things&lt;br&gt;in terms of logic and common sense.&lt;br&gt;Unfortunately, your emotionally unstable&lt;br&gt;friends may be put off by your devotion to&lt;br&gt;logic; they may even accuse you of pedantry and&lt;br&gt;insensitivity.  Your problem is that&lt;br&gt;programming in QBASIC has been obsolete for a&lt;br&gt;long time.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://quizilla.com/users/deadword/quizzes/What%20obsolete%20skill%20are%20you%3F/&quot;&gt; &lt;font size=&quot;-1&quot;&gt;What obsolete skill are you?&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br&gt; &lt;font size=&quot;-3&quot;&gt;brought to you by &lt;a href=&quot;http://quizilla.com&quot;&gt;Quizilla&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/font&gt;</description>
