Congrats on making 6000 MM, and cool new sig too
Thanks, I think it looks pretty decent. I like my old one as well, but seeing as though I hit 6000, and am an admin, figured might as well change things up. Maybe I'll change every thousand posts or something like that. Depending on how often that really is.
mathmission

Yikes, I've fallen one whole percent in terms of the post leader count in this thread... dang, guess I'll have to get things going again, and post up a storm when I get a chance. At the moment, I have to keep going back to things, so I can't really get a good chance to write a whole bunch in a row. Ah well though, I'm sort of glad that they have me doing something here today. I was getting tired of doing nothing... Randomly, two of the four jobs that I applied to turned me down today, saying that I wasn't qualified to do the things that they wanted me to.
mathmission

You know, I've always found it funny, trying to apply to a place that requires experience, but you have to actually have THAT job to get the experience.
mathmission
06-08-2006, 10:00 AM
Ah well, I guess I can't complain. I think things are going decently at the moment. I had a bad week last week, but so far, I think things are working out well so far. The main thing I need to do is get a part for my car to make it work again, and I think after that, things will be quite fine.
mathmission
06-08-2006, 10:06 AM
I am sort of hungry at the moment. But, I'm on a diet now, so I can't go out eating a bunch of stuff I won't burn off. Guess that water will just have to do for now. I've got 1h45min to lunch time!

Yep, still haven't gotten any more done. Perhaps I should at least get a few more done before I post again.

Ha, someone just came down to our office and told us that there was a bunch of stuff in the fridge downstairs that we could help ourselves to. So I rushed down there before one of the ladies here sent out a mass e-mail about it, and snatched up the fruit, and a few of the spicy chicken kabobs. mmMMmmm, now I have something halfway decent to have for lunch! And maybe if there is still something left when I'm done, I might get something on the way home tonight for dinner. Who knows. I guess that's one of the good things about working here; they have a lot of meetings with food, and it all ends up as community in the fridge.

The end is in sight, I only have to do this 7 description thing 7 more times, and then I should have the rest of the day to do whatever. I think I'm going to work on a webpage design. A friend of mine and I are going to start a humor site, and make it look like an advertising agency. The ideas is to have funny vids, and blogs on there. They will probably be offensive, and blatent. The idea is to be an agency that doesn't listen to the customer, and when we design ads, we want to show them how we think they should be portrayed. Not sure if it's going to be a hit or not, but hey, at least it's something to work on, right?

Here are a few of the things that I'm currently working on. You'll understand why I am going nuts here:
Premier Beef- Educate small-herd beef producers in concepts of value-based feeder calf marketing. Focuses on herd health, growth, uniformity, and marketing skills necessary to capture the full value of feeder cattle.
MO-PORK- Program offering applied research and educational practices resulting in application of management protocols and strategies to improve nutrient utilization, reproductive efficiency and management of swine.
Missouri Show Me QualityAssurance- Two presentations covering Two presentations covering information on daily care and management, reading feed labels, withdrawal times and bio-security for livestock. Also focuses on animal health products, and carcass quality. Program that leads to certification.
Equine- Aimed at horse, and other equine species owners, educates in the fields of feeding, de-worming, training, breeding, and management issues. Limited on-site service and seminars geared towards pleasure owners.

Yeah, I've done 43 of these, and I have something like 6 more to do, and I've been working all morning on them, and getting nowhere, since I don't really want to be working on them, I just get distracted, and find other things to do. I took two different typing tests, and messed around with a translator.

06-08-2006, 01:46 PM
Yeah, I generally wait for some friends to go at it with new programs before I try them myself, just so they can identify the problems before I put it on my machine. I remember when some friends of mine got the first version of Windows XP, they gave me all the information I needed to know about the first problems that were happening. The same thing with Adobe Premiere.

Oh I agree. I remember last summer when I was pretty much the only one that posted here. It was nuts. I would be able to post days and days in a row without anyone actually posting here. I'm sure that there were people that read it, but the site was having some problems and we lost a lot of posts over and over, and I think some people got a little frustrated, with their post counts, and the site counts dropping by the hundreds a few days in a row. But the site is massively stable now, and we've been doing really well in keeping posts not only in here, but all across the site.

Haha, yeah, I can get that way as well, do so many so fast that I don't even notice that there are other people trying to get a hold of me. And look, there are three of us here! Get that count up! Woot. Sorry that I'll be responding slowly, I'm working on a critique of a prototype of our new front page of a website me and a friend will be launching sometime soon.

And I would love to have a second house somewhere where I could just travel and get away from everything, like in France. That would make writing a bit easier. Course, I have to have a lot of money first so I can buy that second house, and per the way it is for a lot of artists, poverty is in my future!

Would be glad to do so. My goal is 1,000,000, though something tells me it's going to take me the rest of my life to do so. So, I think a more realistic goal for myself is something like 20,000 posts.

Oh, you're moving much faster than you think, both of you. It took me three years of posting to get where I am now, and only because I pretty much exploded with posts this past few months.

Riscy has 1.91 posts a day
Thumper has 1.64 posts a day
Mathmission has 6.53 posts a day.
Keep in mind this is all based on how long you've actually been a member at UTC. So mine is based on however many days I've been a part of UTC, since 2003. Of course, this isn't counting all the posts that I had when I was a part of Blubster, before the merger.

Haha, the best part of having a bunch of friends that are posting, is being able to know that there's always going to be someone else that can post more than you. So I'm not worried about falling back too far behind you guys. Plus, it's all in efforts to make the million post march successful.
