Merry Christmas from INHD2
On Christmas Day, I was testing our Pronto remote, which I had reprogrammed for the family room since the Crestron took its previous job downstairs. I noticed that INHD2 was showing footage of a fireplace. I opened up the menu, which let me know that from 7 AM to 3 PM on Christmas, they would be broadcasting "Yule Log," with "footage of a burning log" as the only description. We left it on because it was funny, and it actually worked out well for me because I couldn't see the real fire from where I was sitting.
This reminds me of Carroll's Jewelers in Doylestown, which has a flat screen TV running footage of a fish tank. At first glance, it looks real. In fact, some people never figure out that it's not. (Sorry to break it to you if you were one of the believers.)

Click on the image and drag left and right to pan. Press shift to zoom in, and control to zoom out.

Stuck with the Rejects
After looking at my grades for this semester, I
started thinking about how school and I never really got along. I think about
this a lot, actually. Anyway, I noticed a funny coincidence about how I am
somehow always stuck with people who are being punished. Of course, by "always,"
I mean "twice." Not only was I assigned to a dorm where they sent kids who were
kicked out of the nicer dorms, I also went to a high school that took in a
student mid-year because he had been kicked out of another school.

Imagine
[[[ Here
you should imagine a picture of a Wysz who is 20 years older, with a small scar
on his left cheek, wearing a black t-shirt that has "Moon" written next to a
platinum Apple logo.
]]]
Using state-of-the-art digital imaging technology, extensive research, flow charts, psychic powers, and even some good old-fashioned police work, I was able to create what I'm told is an amazingly accurate representation of what I will look like when I'm 40. I think I've aged pretty well, with minimal wrinkles and a full head of hair. The scar on my face is actually a pretty cool reminder of the time I had to beat up that ninja, and I'm sure it will be a fun ice-breaker at parties. It's also nice to see that we have finally started populating the Moon, Apple is still going strong, and I'm still a big geek.
Note: I was actually going to make the picture, but I'm busy*.

they're not horrible.
Today in D-Town...
I was in the bank
today.
But that's not the whole story. Across from the bank is a Burger King.
But wait, there's more! Inside the bank was a Burger King employee, making a deposit.
But it gets better. The amount on the deposit slip was different than the amount of cash he brought, so the employee called his boss and asked which amount he wanted to deposit.
But. He talked to his boss via his wireless Burger King headset, which still worked inside the bank. He eventually gave up on the fuzzy connection and had his boss call the bank's phone, but it was still funny.
I'm awesome.

parec02 (3:12:16 AM): but it must have come from a can at some point, and i think that if i were to look in my pantry, i would find that each can had a warning against typing with one hand while holding soup in the other
parec02 (3:12:48 AM): if only you had heeded the soup can's warning, your shirt would still fetch millions on ebay

Injustice
Baltimore is such a dirt city. I parked my car
legally on the street, where there were no signs indicating that I couldn't park
there. I came back a little over a day later, and they had put up temporary NO
PARKING signs, and given me (as well as several other cars parked on the street)
a $27 ticket. How hard would it be for them to give a warning a couple days in
advance?
Also, it's usually impossible to find parking on the street I live on, which is why I only go shopping at night, when there's a better chance I will return to find a spot. When I can't park on this street, there is one not too far away that I use as my reserve, since it almost always has something available. I pulled by it the other night, looking for a spot, and saw that now only residents can park on that street. I think it took me another 20 minutes to find a space.
At least I'll be home in less than a week. I'm not staying in this place for one second after I graduate.

Photogram
I didn't do a terrific scan, so the color (yes, i
know it's black and white) is off just a bit, and the smokey thing at the bottom
(actually just Saran wrap) doesn't look as mysterious as it does in the
print.

The Escalator
When I was in the mall with Ted a few months ago
(I can't remember why), I noticed something about escalators. The escalator is
an invention that improved regular stairs, right? Or is it a more efficient
elevator? In either case, the escalator takes a step backwards from its
predecessor. Elevators and staircases go both up and down (and
more), but the escalator only goes one way. Who would try to invent a
one-way staircase?
Oh, and:
ShkenBlke2 (3:11:37 PM): u know, if ur talking about escalators, u need 2 make sum kinda mallrats reference 4 me and ted 2 enjoy and chuckle @

One More VR Thing Before I Do Laundry
Click here
if you want to see a demo of what DVTime Studios can do with
interactive tours. They can be much more complicated, but this file was small so
I'm putting it
up.

Really, I'm Going On Hiatus This Time
I will be without Internet access until Sunday
night, so please don't expect any updates until then. Also, if you need to get
in touch with me, you must call my cell. I won't read my email until Sunday
night. Have a great weekend kids.
The hiatus starts..... NOW!
Is it sad that I have to announce a blogging
hiatus when I will only be away for part of the weekend? No, it's not.
It's awesome.

Win!
The Common Dores won their last game, and Ted
actually did well, if I'm reading this "Box Score" thing correctly. Two points,
six rebounds, and a whopping 22 minutes. Good show, loser.
Gilman Elevator
Gilman Hall is one of the strangest buildings
I've ever experienced. My first semester here, I spent hours walking around in
circles trying to find classrooms in this labyrinth. There are offices located
within offices and hallways that look like the combination of a cage and a
tunnel, like something you would see in the innards of a ship. The outer
hallways are complete circles on a few floors, but on other ones just lead to
more staircases. If you take the wrong staircase to one of the upper floors, you
won't get to where you need to be. They also leave the front doors open 24 hours
a day now, but still lock down these cage things at night in one of the
staircases, which is completely pointless because you can walk around to the
other side from the outer hallway. Some windows overlook the roof of the
building, which is weird, and to get to any exterior door, no matter which floor
you're on, you have to go up or down stairs. Most of my classes are in Gilman,
and this is my third year here, and I still have no idea which end I'm going to
pop out when I leave the
building.
Anyway, it was recently brought to my attention that the elevator, besides being extremely slow, is also confusing. The arrows point left and right. I thought elevators went up and down. And left and right probably represent the opposite directions you would assume. When traveling to a greater-numbered floor, the left arrow lights up in red. When moving to a lesser-numbered floor, the right arrow is illuminated with a green light.
I'm not making this up. Come to JHU, ask which building the bookstore is in, and try it yourself.

Here's an obligatory plug for DVTime Studios if you want QuickTime VR panoramas created for you or your business. We do interactive panoramas, which means that you can click on locations in the image to go to another location.

This is incredibly geeky, but:
Today I talked to Stormy, the guy who was first
in line at the London Apple Store. He contacted me. This may be hard for most of
my readers to understand, but he is like a celebrity to Apple geeks. Okay this
post has to end.

(Not) Stealing Music
I don't download music illegally. I buy it on CD
or purchase it from iTunes. Before iTunes, it
was only CD's. I never had Napster on my computer. Still, I never gave anyone a
hard time if they downloaded illegally. It wasn't my problem. Often, when people
(mostly my age) find out that I purchase music from iTunes, they can't believe
it, and ask me why. "Because it's not wrong" is usually not a valid answer. Why
do I have to feel awkward about doing what should be the norm? If someone has to
be mean about it, shouldn't I be the one making them feel bad?
400th Post!
Wysz's Thoughts v.Awesome has now reached 400
entries. My previous
blog, which crashed one year and two days ago, went out with a
whopping 518 entries after less than two months of
existence.
400 posts later, and I'm as awesome as ever.

I'm Mr. Wysz!
I love being able to answer the phone, and
saying, "Yes, this is Mr. Wysz," when they ask if Mr. or Mrs. Wysz is available.
I talked to Comcast tonight.
Don't worry, it's not another panorama. It's just text.

What's Missing From This Picture?
I think this is the first week that nobody is a Systems Analyst. Am I right? Why would they change the tradition? What happened?
It's December!
But I'm in the middle of editing so I'll catch
you kids later.
