While we're not mentioned directly (at the parents request) the local paper, Examiner Enterprise (aka Teh Typo Tymes), ran an article on the group that's been helping us get the house whipped into shape. Now this is a crummy recreation of what's in the paper, but until I can get all the pictures scanned and stuff this'll have to do.

But enough of the nicey, nice stuff. Tomorrow they're coming again to finish the painting but this time I'm here. Bwa ha ha ha! I AM MATTBERT, EVIL DIRECTOR OF QUALITY CONTROL! BWA HA HA!! It's not quite done yet, but I've even rigged up a Dilbert style self-portrait of myself (which I will have online once the UDM is finished).

Speaking of which, the UDM is coming along quite nicely. I got a ton of work done today and everything is looky pretty spanky! You can take a looksee if you want.

Well, I need to get some sleep so I have plenty of energy for whip cracking... I mean.. painting tomorrow ;-). G'night!

Yesteray began day one of the house rennovating project. I was out helping mom with little kids but I plan on staying next Saturday to be the Supervisor from Hell(R) :-D. Some sanding and spackle jobs done by the teens who are pulling this off was... well, not professional. And while I don't expect them to be perfect, painting over screws and nails is not acceptable.

Saw an interesting article about how people ranked their ISP. SBC was pretty up there and, to my joy, AOL was dead last. Guess I'm not the only one who thinks of it as AO-heL.
