Well, I am officially living at the Fort now… and it’s Awesome. Took most all day Saturday to move in, and I’m not quite done, but it’s livable for the time being.

[begin rant] I’ve got a new idea for car horns. Maybe it’s not new, but since I thought of it last night and I’d never heard of it before, I’m counting it as a new idea - pressure sensitive car horns. With pressure sensitive car horns, you’d be able to decide just how loud the horn should be for a given situation. Sometimes, you just want to honk to let someone know they have right-of-way and should get out of the way, and in those cases, you don’t need the horn to be so loud and rude. However, when someone just about clips your front bumper merging into your lane on the highway and cutting you off for no reason other than their apparent idiocy, it’d be nice if you could, by the loudness of your horn, let them know that such a move was indicative of the actions of a complete idiot, not just a partial idiot.

I start a new job tomorrow with University Communications, working on the HSU website. From what I can tell, my job will be to push updates to the website - something that makes me happy because I have long felt that the HSU website isn’t updated quickly enough when it needs to be (case in point: the bad weather days we had recently… yes, they posted that school was cancelled, but by the time it got on there it was almost too late to be of any use). Not that the team behind the website isn’t top-notch from what I can tell so far, but maybe I can bring some speed to the need-to-know updates.
