As you’ve probably noticed, Condiment Man is watching your every move while you read these blog entries. He looks happy now, but know that his smile could turn upside down with a drop of wasted mustard. The other site links were going to be pictureized, but I have no idea what font I used when creating the CM picture, and multiple fonts looked horrible.
While messing around with some things on the site, I noticed the stories index page sometimes crashed IE6, and when it loaded correctly, the right side of the table hides under the right sidebar. Instead of attempting to fix it, I recommend you switch to Firefox 2.0 or upgrade to Internet Explorer 7. Both will load the page correctly. I could say it’s laziness on my part, or I could say this is your chance to be proactive and upgrade before either program asks you to. You’d be ahead of the curve! Leading the pack! Grab the bull by the horns and watch out for Cow Defender. By the way, does Cow Defender defend bulls?
As for the new story, here’s a little ketchup to liven an otherwise bland posting.
The new Condiment Man story draws ever closer. I’ve been hard at work converting the older stories from pdf to the new cssful layout. In the process, I came across a great Condiment Man quote I had long forgotten in Combo of Death.
I glanced over my shoulder toward the laugh, and saw the maroon vested guardian, known as Movie Guy.
“Could I see your tickets?” he asked, already knowing the answer.
“I’m not going to see a movie. We came in here to fight,” I replied.
So far, no word has come back from the USPTO in regards to knocking the other guy’s CM trademark out of existence. I hope to hear back tomorrow, though I have gotten phone calls from a 320 area code the past two days with no message.
On the MBA front, I had to deal with the KU bureaucracy yesterday and today. It seems a car linked to my name in the KU parking department computer was ticketed sometime between when I picked up my transcript for AMP and now, which resulted in a hold on my account. Two phone calls to two departments cleared it up, so I should have everything I need for the deadline. The hold music for the Registrar is some intense Stuff. There’s this constant beat with a triumphant melody, and every few minutes a man cuts in to talk about how much KU does for kids. “Eight-year-old Billy Doe is training for a 5k marathon because of KU. ‘It makes me feel lazy,’ said Billy’s father.” You should call just to be put on hold for a while.
A new Condiment Man story is in the works. Yes, another one. What is to happen, you ask? I don’t remember.

We had a departmental olympics at work last week, and one of the events was an art project. My team decided to produce a marionette complete with a stage on which to perform. The result is below. We added a face to it before judging.
