Poem: The Night

By Richard X. Thripp at 2009-01-31T11:28:00Z in Other, with these tags: black, night, poetry, 4 Comments. 298 words.

Out of the darkness and into the light
The past is distant and the horizon bright
But in the fog of the night, there is a warning
Be fast and unseen, for danger is queen

The shadows on the wall seem so tall
The evils of the world take over all
But in the day they cringe in seclusion
Seems they are nothing but an illusion

Simplicity is an over-valued trait
Most systems are neither simple nor elegant
The world is too complex for perfection
There are just too many inflections

Colors and light dance in the night
Mystery abounds in the shadowy realm
But in the day there is no bite
Everything is plain …

Returning to College

By Richard X. Thripp at 2008-08-26T12:34:35Z in Other, with these tags: college, daytonastate.org, education, School, 0 Comments. 67 words.

I went back to school yesterday. I’m blogging about my school life over at DaytonaState.org now, so take a look at that. The reason to split it up from here is because that site is more targeted, and ranks higher in Google and makes me more money. :grin: But I’ll be writing more here and posting a few photos this weekend. The learning is keeping me busy.

The Library on Hold

By Richard X. Thripp at 2008-08-07T23:10:56Z in Other, with these tags: fear, growth, librarianship, life, the thripp public library, 2 Comments. 282 words.

If you follow my Twitter, you know I’ve been consumed with coding the OPAC for my public library these past seven days. Also, I pissed off greatly angered my Dad recently. I’m constantly negative / patronizing around him. It’s like a subconscious force. So much for trying to be personally developed.

The library is looking really great now; check out this search for example. I’m putting it on hold starting right now. I won’t work any more on it for one month. Hold me to that promise, okay?

The problem with it is that it’s not the …

The Return from the Vacation

By Richard X. Thripp at 2008-06-30T23:18:16Z in Other, Photography Ramblings, with these tags: richard x. thripp, thripp.com, vacation, 2 Comments. 488 words.

Hello again. I’m back from my exciting four-day vacation. I stayed around Palm Beach for three days with my aunt, uncle, cousin, and grandma. It was 200 miles down there. We had a lot of fun, my aunt cooked great food, there was a cool storm, and we played volleyball in the pool. Afterward, I stayed with my Grandma for Sunday and part of Monday, and my Dad brought me home three hours ago. I’ve been unpacking and clearing out emails.

Here’s some photos. I won’t show family because they don’t want to be shown.

Going on Vacation

By Richard X. Thripp at 2008-06-26T07:52:17Z in Other, with these tags: vacation, 0 Comments. 105 words.

Hello! If you’ve been following my Twitter updates, you know I had my final test in precalculus algebra today, got my grades back, and passed with an A. I have two months off now. I’m traveling to South Florida with my Grandma to visit family in a few minutes, and I’ll be gone till Monday (2008-06-30). I haven’t been posting as much here, as I’ve been making a lot of progress with thripp.com, but I’ll come back with some great photos and ideas for articles, plus plenty of time to execute them.

Thanks everyone, and leave me some comments …

My Google Favicon Design

By Richard X. Thripp at 2008-06-18T06:02:52Z in Other, with these tags: google, 2 Comments. 212 words.

I was reading this article about Google’s favicon revisions. I don’t like the new lowercase “g”; the old capital one was better and more distinctive. But Google doesn’t like the new icon either, and is accepting submissions, which ends on the 2008-06-20. I always liked the Google logo with the colored balls, but I don’t see any trace of it in their current ideas. so I made and submitted my own:

Marissa and Micheal complain that Google has no specific logo, so only their name or a derivative …
