Pete's Log: it's all about mocking perk's sunglasses

Entry #428, (Life in General)
(posted when I was 22 years old.)

Questions asked while TA'ing tonight: 4. One of which was about printing. The OIT is kinda (well, more than just kinda) screwy, and LPDEST wasn't being set on the machine the guy was logging in to. I dunno what's up with that... Other things accomplished tonight: bugged perk, updated cse 232 style doc and web page, played with the atlantis thingy, did some work on shade stuff for adv. comp. arch, added some minor pointless features to the log web page. Also realized that I've not gotten my ACM newsletters/magazines in some time, so I went to acm.org and updated my mailing address so they quit sending them to keenan hall.

Linda Trifone (Aunt) and Alexandra Trifone (cousin) showed up in South Bend today. Alexandra is doing the whole prospective freshman thing, which I'm sure will be fun. They're going to the game on saturday. they've also invited Mamie and I to dinner friday night. They're going to meet me at fieldhouse mall at 5 tomorrow, which should be interesting. I wonder what their impression of nrq will be.

8 of the cd's i've ordered shipped yesterday. those are: "Reggae Dancer" by Inner Circle, "Rhyme, Rhythm, and Reggae" by various artists, "Ska Island" by various artists, "Modified" by Save Ferris, "Slowly Going the Way of the Buffalo" by MxPx, "Enema of the State" by Blink 182, "Tragic Kingdom" by No Doubt, and "The Singles Collection" by The Specials. The last three are albums I have heard and know I like, the MxPx and Save Ferris ones are ones I've not heard, but by bands I like, and the first three are pretty much random purchases, all I know about Inner Circle is that they do the song "Bad Boys" which is featured on the television show "Cops." I'll post detailed reviews once those cds arrive.

It seems a "party" or "social gathering" of some sorts will occur at our place on friday. it promises to be interesting, if nothing else. this is looking like a decent weekend: nrq show, relatives, party, football game, and whatever else ends up happening...
