Welcome. If you're here that means I've told you I've started a blog, and you've reacted with "Jesus Christ Dave, not another one!" Either that or you've done some weird google search, like "cattle baby jesus pr0n" and come across this. If the latter, I'm sad to say that all my pictures of Jesus being raped by bovines was lost in a hard drive wipe a while ago.
So, a lot of people sit here wondering "What in the hell? It seems everybody and their dog (and in some cases their messiah-molesting cattle) has a blog today. Why the hell does this Ebb Omega character seem to feel the need to give us more useless crap on the internet?" Well, my answer is mainly that I finally decided that webforums weren't really the best place in the world to always vent what I have to say, and ICQ and MSN are severely lacking in ability to tell a whole bunch of people about cool things I find.
So where does this get us? Well, as this blog is still in its genesis (and is harshly borrowing the evil green-on-black colour scheme I used oh-so-long-ago when I designed My original website), I still don't know exactly what's going to go here. Thoughts, ideas, pieces of art I either come across or attempt to create, news clippings I find interesting/funny/important, all the other typical stuff one finds in the blogosphere.
So, it's not much to look at now. And knowing how lazy I am, it may not be for a while. But this is a second run, and I'm getting more in touch with my spiritual/artistic roots lately, so hopefully this can be a new era in which I don't completely neglect my web design skills or something like that. Maybe this will eventually look pretty. As for now, cope you chickenmonkeys.

Eventually I'm going to have to pay attention to what this stuff is doing. Decoding the Perl ain't gonna be fun. Also, I need to figure out how to do some keyboard shortcuts. Blasted forcing me to use a mouse. POTH I SAY!
Posted by: ebbomega at July 22, 2004 12:14 AMWell that was crazy. I tried to post a comment, it didn't seem to want to let me. The bastards. They will pay!
Alt-S will eventually mean "poSt" but for now it's going without. Function over form I suppose.
This template stuff is pretty crazy, but a lot more intuitive than some of the crap I've had to deal with. (Hey, I work at a Superstore. I can't be picky)
