The Boston Diaries

The ongoing saga of a programmer who doesn't live in Boston, nor does he even like Boston, but yet named his weblog/journal “The Boston Diaries.”

Go figure.

Fifty inches of impressionistic inflatable ink

It didn't make “Most Amusing Present,” but it's still darned amusing—my dad got me “The Scream.”

Okay, he didn't give me the actual painting, nor a reprint, but an inflatable Scream:

[Macaulay Culkin posed for this, I just know it]

Fifty inches of impressionistic inflatable ink. And given where the valve was, his expression makes quite a bit of sense (same for Otto the autopilot now that I think about it).

So now he lives at The Ft. Lauderdale Office of The Corporation where we could definitely use some non-corporate propaganda art to liven up the space.

You have my permission to link freely to any entry here. Go ahead, I won't bite. I promise.

The dates are the permanent links to that day's entries (or entry, if there is only one entry). The titles are the permanent links to that entry only. The format for the links are simple: Start with the base link for this site: https://boston.conman.org/, then add the date you are interested in, say 2000/08/01, so that would make the final URL:

You can also specify the entire month by leaving off the day portion. You can even select an arbitrary portion of time.

You may also note subtle shading of the links and that's intentional: the “closer” the link is (relative to the page) the “brighter” it appears. It's an experiment in using color shading to denote the distance a link is from here. If you don't notice it, don't worry; it's not all that important.
