Late

[rejectomorph]

It's Saturday, and I probably won't do anything. Before I came here, I always did something on Saturday. Here, the days are all the same. It might as well be Wednesday. Only Sundays and holidays are a bit different, but only because there is no mail delivery, and no early morning traffic. Oh, monotony.

Now that the weather is cooling, I should be able to keep Sluggo working long enough to upload a few pictures. I haven't posted any in months. I haven't taken many this year, either, because the weather has been so crappy. I seldom got out in the spring because of all the rain, and those summer days were too hot, and I've had way too much to do lately. But I'm sure I can find a few things to post. At least, there ought to be a couple of cat pictures I've never put up.

But I must watch less television. Having those extra movie channels is playing havoc with my schedule. I barely have time to download pr0n art anymore.

Speaking of art, I've discovered that the pages of The Athenaeum vanish from my browser as soon as I leave them. If you want to save the images, you have to do it while you're still on the page -- unless other browsers don't behave that way, or you know some clever geek way around whatever it is that the site is doing to prevent people from saving their pages in a cache. It's an annoying trait of the site, particularly since the index pages have to reload every time you click on them, and you have to go back to the index page in order to get to the next image. I think I mentioned in my original post that the site could have been better designed.

Crap, it's after six! Must sleep!

Hey there. I'm Chris McCormick, the webmaster for The Athenaeum. I back-linked to you from our tracking db, and saw that you have some concerns. I'd like to talk to you about your ideas. We can do it through this journal, through The Athenaeum (just use the reply address at the bottom of most pages, or use the forums) or through my personal e-mail (probably easiest) at cmccormick at mailsnare.net.

The short answer is that some of those things work as intended, some of them are inescapable, and some of them might be improved, with my coding and your ideas. Let's talk.

- Chris

It's probably best if I use e-mail, since LiveJournal isn't set up for sending e-mail notifications of replies to comments made by anyone other than logged-in users. You'd end up having to check back all the time to read my replies in the thread -- unless you want to become an LJ user, in which case I could send you an invitation code for a free account.

Yah, e-mail is best

I have a livejournal account, but I *never* use it. I'm one of those people who has eight or ten (paper) journals, each with the first few pages filled in. :-)

Just shoot me an e-mail at cmccormick at mailsnare dot net (replace the "at" and the "dot," of course).

This is a labor of love for me, and I really do want it to work as smoothly as possible. When people take the time to express their views, it's worth my time to listen.
