It’s required reading night here at Hotelblues.com, for two reasons. Reason one, I don’t want to have to bring this up again. I’ve made my position on this matter quite apparent. Reason two, This just isn’t something I want to discuss. Be here on the site or in real life. So read all of this stuff first I Feel Your Pain, My Take On Religion, Yee Of Little Faith, and The Consequences Of My Slander and then check out this new GuestBook entry from KoldKadavr who had this to say:

Nice site… However, much more important realities await thee. Both God and I want you in the Great Beyond. How do you get there? Belief in the Trinity and frequent confession; We know you can make it if you follow our guidelines in this Finite Existence. Sign the Guest Book, too. God Bless You.

I won’t be plugging this guys site here. And I will not be signing his guestbook. In fact these kinds of people really piss me off. I don’t go to their shitty little websites and fill out their lame signmyguestbook.com guestbooks. I don’t go to total strangers homes/websites and try to preach the shit I believe in. Why? Because it’s rude. At least that’s how I feel about having people try to force their beliefs on me.

So don’t bother writing back. Don’t bother signing my GuestBook again. From know on I’m going to treat these kinds of people the same way I treat any other religious fanatic. I’m going to keep them from trying to force their views here at this website.

That’s right I’m waving my big ip banning stick around again. And if your going to spew this kind of shit here, at least try to make it good the first time. Because you’ll only get the one shot.

**Update**
It’s a funny story how are friend of god KoldKadavr found Hotelblues.com. First thing is I run your basic stat recording script. It gets info like ip address, where you came from (url wise), and what pages of mine you visited. And when you sign the GuestBook it records your ip as well.

Now using the ip address from the GuestBook entry I was able to look up that ip in my stat script. I was as shocked as anyone else will be to see how KoldKadavr found my site. Here is what his ip turned up in my stat script:

Quite the man of god huh?

Lets face it folks this Webcam S.O.T.D. thing is getting boring. There is only so many ways a guy can take a picture of an ashtray.

And of course it’s no fun when they empty the ashtray out. Of course it was a half ass empty. Theres still ashes in the ashtray.

Well I was off seven days (yes seven) and came back to work happily to find the “rules applying to everyone” still. So to commemorate the start of me working seven days in a row I give you the start of seven days worth of Webcam S.O.T.D.

All I can say about the first picture is at least it’s not hidden under the desk any more. The second picture is to keep the playing field even. Here is my attempt making sure the rules don’t apply to everyone.

It’s a special Webcam S.O.T.D. this time around. Two pictures which are a tool for me to teach everyone a word that fits this situation. Hypocrisy is the word and here are the two pictures:

The first picture is a sign that says non-smoking room, which we all know it isn’t because we have the second picture of the used ashtray hidden under the desk still.

Hypocrisy ladies and gentlemen plain and simple.

I love geek toys. I recently installed a wonderful php script called phpAdsNew, which is an uber banner management script. I have found a number of little things that make my little geek heart quite happy. Honestly the amazing feature set of this free script just blows me away.

It can do pop ups, pop under, geocities style, and a number of other ad formats. This handy little script has an amazing delivery system. You can set up a number of filtering options, so only certain ads show at the predetermined variables. Like based on ip address. Below are two banners in my ad campaign directed at a specific ip address:

Now the cool thing is that people behind that specific ip address will only see these ads. Which means the rest of you will be seeing the normal banners in rotation. And the sheer power of phpAdsNew is really more than I need. But what the hell.

I was kind of worried I would get any more good webcam shots. But I had faith and good peripheral vision and so it’s my pleasure to bring you the second Webcam S.O.T.D. (shot of the day):

This one is great because it’s the old “hide it under the desk and no one will know about it” shot.

So the other day we had an employee meeting. Lots of things were discussed and overall it was a good meeting. I say this not as a brown nose or as an ass kiss. “The Consultant” handled the meeting in a manner that I thought was what the employee morale needed.

And a few areas of importance were covered. Most important to me (and something that is a hot topic) was the issue of smoking in the building. As it is the management does not want employees smoking in the building. Which is cool. But my thing is I want to make sure that if I have to follow the rules everybody has to follow the rules.

Which is why I asked “does the no smoking rule apply to everyone?” Which to me is only fair. Which also brings me to announce a new feature to the site. It will be a semi regular webcam shot of the day. And to kick it off I have a “rules applying to everyone” webcam shot. And it’s beautiful.

Of course it makes you wonder if “rules apply to everyone” means something different in manager speak? I’m looking forward for more exciting webcam shots. And I know there will be more.
