No, this is not science fiction. I was so engrossed last year with Genpets I missed this completely.

Chinese scientists at the Shanghai Second Medical University in 2003 successfully fused human cells with rabbit eggs. The embryos were reportedly the first human-animal chimeras successfully created.

And at Stanford University in California an experiment might be done later this year to create mice with human brains.


Who the hell gets off on this?

Cuz I'm just that mental.

I haven't been keeping this site up to date lately, as I've been to busy working on everyone else's and sculpting. But this should allow me to update more often as it's much faster.

Why reinvent the wheel?
There are lots of blogging platforms after all. There's just something about having complete control, and knowing exactly how everything functions. Too many people are calling themselves web designers these days for doing nothing more than using moveable type (blog software) to create a website. Pet peeve of mine. Seeing someone charge $3000 to someone while all they did was use free software...
Plus this was just more fun, and it's the component of something larger I'm working on...

And as much as all me OCAD chums were like [huh?] it actually does have a lot to do with my sculpture. PHP (what this is written in) is based on C, and I'll be programming my next set of animatronics in C or C++ instead of basic. So the same basic theories behind the arrays that run this site, will make a future sculpture do motion tracking.

No it's not open source, but yes it will be used on other sites. Just need to make sure there's no bugs first. And clean up a few things.

The site will change looks once I have the engine running it looking good. I'm more worried about making everyone else's site look good and W3 Validated rather than my own.

What's new?
-Comments!! There are now over 150 journal entries and not a single darn comment on any. So I'll give ya $5 if you make one! Plus it's spiffy. I added cookies so it'll remember you and a java preview.
Also categories, and an RSS feed most notably.
