Not a Box Company

August 9th, 2008--
Hello and welcome to the only website out there named after an imaginary box company! Right now, you are probably here to check out my bike trip page, but that isn't all that's here. You can also read about my summer camp experience, cross country season, or you can write me a little message in the contact link.
Not really NEW anymore! -- Learn to program your TI-83 or 84 graphing calculator simply by clicking that "calculator" link on your left.
Still NEWER, but not exactly New!! -- I am now in college! I am writing this line at around 11:00 on my first night here. Wish me Luck ;) <--(Just so you all know, that's a winky emoticon.)
IMPORTANT! -- If you are viewing these pages in Internet Explorer 8 or above, use the Compatibility View next to the refresh button.

September 19th, 2010-- The following two pictures are from a habitat for humanity event in which I participated over the weekend. It was titled, "Let's Shack Up", and in it, we competed with about 20 other teams to see who could build the best house out of scavenged cardboard. Our house was pretty cool; it had six "bedrooms" connected to a main common area which was complete with a ceiling lamp and double doors in the entryway. So, here they are:

July 19th, 2010-- Good news, everybody- over the next couple of days, I plan to completely revamp this website to heights that none of you have seen before. I've set the grand re-opening for midnight on Saturday, July, 24th. Everything will be organized much better and hopefully appear much prettier. Depending on how I make it, we may even have a really nice comment page. I will also include pictures/tales of my vacation to Paris with my family, and my vacation to Hilton Head with my girlfriend. OK, it's time to get to work.

April 4th, 2010-- HAPPY EASTER!!! --I hope everybody has a great Easter. I am currently eating crackers above my physics homework, hoping that it will do itself. If it doesn't start in an hour, I might have to help it along. Well, back to my crackers, see you all later. (31 days left)

March 28th, 2010--Greek week is now officially over, and we're nervously awaiting the final scores. At the current moment, I have two YouTube videos to share with you, and pictures will (hopefully) follow. The first is of our variety show performance on Thursday, and can be found here. I am behind the TV, the person who pushed the bed post over, and the shower head. After you're done watching that one though, you should definetly watch the Pyramid video". We came in third place, which is rather exciting for a fraternity which is on the small side, both in numbers and physical size. I am the second guy to crawl on the very left of the video. Enjoy!

February 24th, 2010--Yes, I am still alive. A little busy, if you hadn't noticed. Actually, I probably should be busy now. Naw, 20 minutes is plenty of time to write a 7-page paper... right? Anyway, while walking between classes today, I just so happened to (accidentally) eavesdrop. Really, "conversation" is the wrong word. It was more of two independent people talking on independent cell phones to two very different people. Anyway, keeping that in mind, here's how the conversation went:

Guy in Front Of Me: So yeah, it was pretty stressful.
Girl Behind Me loudly: Wait! What happened?
Guy: I was up all night with it
Girl with worry: Is she Okay?!?!
Guy: confidently: Yeah, I pretty much nailed it.
Girl even louder: Are you sure?!?!?!
Guy Yup.
After that they trailed off into their independent conversations, but I found this amusing enough that I stopped to write it down.

February 11th, 2010--Ok, so while scanning the variety of randomness that is the internet, I found this map of the USAthat I thought all of you would enjoy.

February 8th, 2010--So I was thinking at dinner today (there really is no better place to think) about the guy in the cafeteria who is in charge of restocking the cups. We'll call him Pablo. In case you don't know, we have real cups here (as opposed to fake cups, so when you want a drink, you have to take a cup from the cup bin, fill it with the desired fluid, drink said fluid, and return the cup to the dishwahers. From there the cup is washed (not dried), and returned to cup bin along with 30 or so of its friends. This is where Pablo comes in. It is Pablo's job to keep the cup bins well-stocked. But, at high-traffic meals, sometimes the cups are gone by the time he leaves. It just seems like Pablo has a very frustrating job, and therefore I would like to give kudos to Pablo the cup man.

February 7th, 2012--First of all, I must say, happy last five minutes of National Sailor Day!. If this means nothing to you, don't worry about it. If it does and you forgot, you should worry, as I will be coming for your kidneys very soon. Actually, today was exciting for other reasons besides the non-national national holiday. The Superbowl was today, but even better was that at dinner, I was served by a guy named Carlos. I was very excited, and since I'm a nice guy, I decided to share it with all of you.

January 24th, 2010--Well, after thinking thoughtfully, I have decided that there are actually no more pictures worth putting up regarding either Hallway Bowling or Film Marathon. Sorry. Until next time. Cody Hallway Bowling

January 18th, 2010--Howdy Y'all, I have returned victorious. Well' actualy I simply survived the SCIENCE FICTION MARATHON. I left around 3:30 Friday afternoon and I officially returned to my dorm at 8:00 Sunday morning. Actually, it wasn't that bad, and I had a lot of fun. Probably the worst part was how I slept through all of the daylight on Sunday, so I didn't see the sun from Saturday night until this morning. Anyway, I have some pictures I might get up eventually; we'll see.

Now, you're all thinking that I've gone crazy again and put up a picture that has nothing whatsoever to do with my post, but it is there that you are wrong, my dear friend. Because the picture is simply a reminder to myself to put the rest of the HALLWAY BOWLING photos up. That's right, believe it or not, folks; that's 2 (count em) 2! epic events in one weekend. Phew! OK, well it's late here and I have other shtuff to do, so bon soir.

January 13th, 2010--Below is a picture of some painting I helped out with between the hours of 10 and 12 last night. I think Mrs. Masley would be proud. Also if you're reading this and you're in the Cleveland area, you should definetly come to the event mentioned on the sign. Doors open at 6. (You can still come even if you don't belong to Cleveland, but it's really not that important Science Fiction Marathon Sign

January 11th, 2010--OK, I'm back in Cleveland and have lost any hope that it would be any warmer here than Pittsburgh. On my way to class this morning, it literaly snowed a half an inch. Since I walked (somehow, I didn't think a bike would be that good of an idea) it was a kinda crummy first day of class. Not bad, just crummy.

December 17th, 2009--This just shows that I actually meant to say something on the 17th, but by now, I've forgotton what that something is... Oh well

December 7th, 2009--I just used the word "debauchery" in a formal paper for my writing class. Debauchery... Eh Eh... Debauchery (Think "Merman, Eh Eh, Merman").

November 11th, 2009--Today, I figured out that I am pretty much addicted to robots. It all started at lunch which I ate in a non-Case building. I was eating a roasted vegetable sandwich, which was very good, but then I went to the bathroom, and that's when everything started... (Ok, so the problems actually started after lunch, whatever). After I washed my hands, I waved to the hand dryer. It didn't turn on. I waved again to no avail. Finally, I knelt down and looked underneith it, and to my suprise, there was no motion senser. And that's when I saw the big silver button on the front of the unit. Now, all this time the faucet is still going, because I for some reason subliminally expected it to go off by itself (perhaps by teleknesis). Now, let's skip ahead about 2 hours. On the way into the library, the first door was automatic, but the second was not. I was looking the other way at the time and ran head first into a solid metal door. Finally, on my way out of the library, I wanted some hand sanitizer from a little dispenser on the wall. Once again, I waved my hand under it (completely forgetting about my earlier ordeal with the hand dryer) and nothing happened. After about a minute (which is a long time to stare at a hand sanitizer dispenser) I realized I needed to push a button to make it come out. You win today, non-automated devices, but I'll get you eventually.

November 3rd, 2009--So, Wikipedia just taught me how to multiply matrixes. I am writing this in my little break between programming homework and starting a paper (Ugh). Horray for my busy week.

October 25th, 2009--If there is a college in hell, this is the kind of problems they do.

October 24th, 2009--Ok, so I've been a little busy. Not to worry, I'm still alive and here (in Cleveland, Woot!(I'm not really wooting)). Something big is coming, I can feel it, and when it comes, I'm going to share it with all of you! Aren't you sooooo excited. See, the problem is that I've been sorta busy, and there's not much going on here to write about. That's why I'm making all of you read this mindless rambling. The real reason I decided to write here is because when Facebook asked Amanda what I will be doing in some amount of years, she said that I would still be doing this. Really, I'm rather disturbed by the fact that facebook can ask people about me, but I guess that's just another reason I hate it.
    Hey, I just realized that I already changed to a fall background. That's exciting!

September 21st, 2009--Happy last day of summer/ autumnal equinox/ Night mentioned in the song, "September"/ Jim and Kara's 3rd year dating anniversary! I hope everybody has a good day.

September 13th, 2009--Well, I just finished my French Homework, (On y va) and now I'm going to go outside for the second time today, the first was around 11 and now it is about 3:30, so it's about time. After that, Who knows

September 9th, 2009--I am currently writing a 5 to 7 page paper on a subject that I don't even care to mention and I just thought that I might mention a sentence that I am rather proud of. Sure it will probably get removed by the final draft, but it can have its glory now. {"Therefore, it is markedly improbable that a computer or GIS could accurately emulate second space phenomena."} Wasn't that fun?!

September 2nd, 2009--I cheated and got the comment page back up and running! It's nowhere near to how cool it was before, but it works now, which is good? (That question mark was intentional-leave me a comment about it if you like.)

CWRU

August 28th, 2009--This is a picture of the freshman class this year at Case. I am in the bottom right hand corner of the "C", but don't bother looking for me, I can't see me in the bigger version anyway. Also, if you want to see all of us dancing, go here.

August 27th, 2009--I Just got back from playing my first game of Whirlyball EVER! Does anybody know what Whirlyball is? I didn't think so. Don't fear, because I'm going to tell you right now. Whirlyball is lacross played in bumper cars. That is the only way I can think to describe it. So, you're riding around trying not to hit anyone and going for the ball at the same time. As you can imagine, one of those has to take priority over the other one. Ususaly, the ball wins. Therefore the overall goal is to get the ball before you break your neck. If you can do that, you'll be fine.

August 22nd, 2009--Still in Cleveland, but that's not always a bad thing. Last night I went to a Eric Hutchinson concert on campus and I was 3 rows back from the front! So, today, I got up, ate lunch, it rained, someone stole our table, found a new table, and had a slice of pie. (The pie part is a lie, but it sounds good with everything else, so I'm just going to leave it there). Then, at 4, I rode my bike with Case Cycling club (3 members strong) and about 15 other freshmen who like to ride bikes. We rode through a park down to the lake, Lake Erie that is, and ate ice cream and all that good stuff. It wasn't a necessessarily scenic ride, but it had it's moments. Maybe I'll do it again soon.
     OK, so after that I came back here to my room, watched "Meet the Parents" and took a nap. It was nice!

August 20th, 2009--Hello from Cleveland. This is my second day of college life without classes (the fun stops on Monday) and it is going much better than the first. I didn't update too much yesterday because technology issues had me crippled for most of the day. After all, if you had to deal with the BLUE SCREEN OF DEATH, you wouldn't want to write on a stupid website either. Blue screen of death

Also, I just realized that Internet Explorer 8 is not happy with this website at all. You'll all just have to hold on to your desks (and your hats, if you have one) until everything is perfect.

Finally, if your name is Kara Parsons, click this link. You can click it anyway, but It's just not that funny.

OF THE WEEK STUFF

This is where I put stuff that changes
from week to week. I can't give any
examples, because the subjects may
change also. For instance, this week I
have a picture of the week, but by next
week, I might have decided that that is
stupid and changed it to shade of blue
of the week. Also, the subject matter
may be updated less often than once
a week.
