So, I was surfing around the Interwebz the other night, a little bored, but mostly amused. I decided to cruise on by my old high school’s website to see what was going inside that little fucked up Christian compound. After going a few clicks deep, I happened upon MV’s “non-discrimination” policy. This is what i found:
Non-Discrimination Policy
Monte Vista Christian School admits students of any race, color and national origin to all rights, privileges, programs, and activities made available to students in the school. It does not discriminate on the basis of race, color, national or ethnic origin in administration of its educational policies, administration policies, financial aid, or in any other school administered program.
Notice anything missing here? Anything at all? How about sexual orientation/identity, religious background, and socioeconomic class?
In response to Wired.com’s scoop identifying the finder of the lost iPhone prototype, many have asked me how we did it. The process of uncovering digital footprints to identify Brian Hogan was indeed challenging and enlightening, so I thought I’d tell the story here. Heck, it might even teach…
Props to @cbowns for pointing me towards this handy little tool. Kuler helps creative-types come up with color schemes that work well together. It is flexible, powerful, and has a community aspect to it, so you can share your self-created themes and palettes with everyone else. Very nice for artists and web designers alike.
The other day, I received a call from a ‘private number.’ I did not answer it. Why, you ask? Principle. I do not answer blocked numbers on principle. I do not want to answer the phone if I do not know who is calling, just as I do not want to accept a Facebook friend invitation from someone I don’t know. So please people: if you want to phone me, and you’re number is blocked, be prepared to be screened. Leave me a message, and hope that I’m not too annoyed with the fact that you block your number to get back to you.
