Should we take some drastic action about tinjaw's blatant post boosting ... like cutting off his assets?

Lashiec · « **Reply #176 on:** December 27, 2007, 01:33 AM »

If this was the IRC channel, tinjaw would end up being kicked for flooding (nah, maybe one of the operators would kick himself out

). I've got to say that it's the most original form of inflating post count I ever seen

Thanks Darwin!

Since, for what reasons I was never able to figure out, I was not able to get a graphic, please suffice yourselves to visualize, if you will, my post numbered [Fill in the Blank].

There now that should fit all occasions.

Tomos !! Thanks! Yes, I did miss it!

Welcome to the millenium club, Armando

Armando · « **Reply #189 on:** January 03, 2008, 04:09 PM »

Thanks Darwin.
Am trying not to procrastinate tooooo much these days...

Hope your Thesis + teaching job are going well!

Darwin · « **Reply #190 on:** January 03, 2008, 05:01 PM »

Teaching - good!

Thesis - bad!

Oh man, are you living the story of my life or what. I taught US lit and translation at the university where I live for 10 years, never even thought of trying another job when I graduated. The teaching part was awesome, I miss it greatly. The writing part was something else entirely. In those 10 years I gave only one conference presentation, well received too, because I was speaking off the cuff, rather than reading my paper... because I couldn't be bothered to write it all down! Then I realized the net and computing in general were much more fun than writing a thesis on a topic in literature, and never even got as far as the title page. So after 10 years the university and me parted ways.

Teaching really, really good! Thesis ugh.

Well, guys, 2 weeks ago I've decided to leave both PhD and SSHRC grant behind for now. I've just become so sick of it. Art theory, I've had enough.

Now, I don't know what I'll do next, but it just can't be worst...

Darwin · « **Reply #193 on:** January 04, 2008, 12:23 AM »

Tranglos and Armando - I'm glad you two were able (strong enough) to walk away. My forehead is bruised and I am tired from the exertion of beating my head against any available hard surface (wall, desktop, etc.). For now, I must keep trying (er, perhaps that should be start trying! Like tranglos I've yet to write anything "concrete" just lots, and lots, and lots of ideas and notes...).

Thanks for sharing guys (and wish me luck?)

Armando, sorry to hear that. it sounds not so good but i wish best of luck with your future endeavour.. on the other hand, it's nice & enlightening to hear discussions about your respective dissertations.

Darwin, the same to you too..

You could become SQLNotes consultant.

Excellent potential revenus

Well, I'm not saying no. In any case, let's go grab a coffee and chat... between 2 snow banks! It should be fun.

Darwin! I know how you feel, and I sincerely hope that -- at least -- you enjoy parts of your research. If you're like most perfectionists, you probably tend to indefinitely postpone the moment of redaction. So... you should "just" start your first draft ASAP. When do you think you'll start giving a shape to all that material you've been collecting? (of course... who am I to tell/ask you that...

)

Thanks Lanux. Fortunately, it's not toooooo bad. A bit of an identity crisis I guess, but that's the story of my life (communication, music, literature, theater, psychology, teaching, computers...). I'm not worried about my future though -- luckily, I usually succeed at what I do!

Most importantly, I want to enjoy my future projects. The last 3 years have been painful, so... Time for some nice change!

So Tranglos, I saw from your website that you do/did a bunch of stuff! Are all the programs there your own creations? (Like the magnificent KeyNote, for instance...??)... I believe they are, of course. So all I can say is : WOW.
