Client: “In the future, I’d prefer not to pay you to make websites for me. I’ve seen what you do, and I think it’s pretty easy. Can you just teach me how to do your web stuff?” Me: “If you’re really interested, I guess I can teach you the basics of web design, but it’s going to require at least several lessons and it’ll cost $xx for every hour I spend with you. Client: “Damnit, do you have to charge for...

    So I compiled a list of some pretty cool KILLER ROBOT HORROR movies I enjoy.  Some are so bad they are good and others are realy great.  Here they are in chronological order.  Enjoy! Demon Seed – 1978 A so-so yarn about a maniacal AI computer name Proteus,  that has strange desires to pass on its intelligence to a human baby.  The computer ends up killing several people and rapes the main character a female scientist to...

    Went on a one day one night tour of St. Louis this past weekend.  It was a long drive but a friend of mine actually did the driving.  It’s an interesting story so I’ll share it with you. I feel like sharing.     Jamie Palsgrove used to be a coworker friend of mine at TeamDesign.  He moved on to another job but we have kept in touch and still hang out.  We were tossing the idea around before he left of doing a quick...
