By the end of this month, I should know what college I'll be going to. Of course, I'll be updating decisions in "real-time" here.

My lottery losses have mounted to $14.00 as the New York Lottery doubled their prices and disguised the move by creating newer, crappier prize levels. I think that gambling has made me even more bitter, if that's possible.

Lastly, there are a couple of page updates to report: my resume has been updated with some new info, and I added five pictures from my Disney World trip last month to the picture archive.

Back to March 1999, or to the year 1999.

Where am I?

This is Weill Aspects, the official news archive of Jason Weill Web Productions. All articles posted to the front page end up here. This page was generated automatically by a series of Perl scripts.

Articles in Weill Aspects are organized solely by date. You may find the Google search in the left column to be useful if you are looking for an article but do not know the date on which it was posted.

Weill Aspects is composed of static web pages generated as appropriate when a new article is posted. It was developed in May 2001 as a way of managing the content on this site. I also used it extensively while in Japan, during which time I did not have continuous access to the Internet. I was able to write daily updates during July and August 2002, pack the files onto a CD-R or memory device, and upload them from the Internet-connected computers at school.

These scripts are all hacked together in less than elegant fashion, and I don't plan to release them. Some of the design that went into Aspects also was used to develop Livestat, a suite of Perl scripts to process statistics for academic competition tournaments. Livestat is available freely.
