You know something? It's going to be horrible when he doesn't win.

  On the subject of Gmail; you seen Goggles? It is a beautiful, beautiful idea, methinks.

  It's a good principle but I don't think my maths skills would be diminished enough to stop me from sending a drunk mail. If I can spell while drunk (and I can), then I can surely do simple arithmetic.
  
  Perhaps an experiment is in order.

  Mit der Rechtschreibung (beim eintippen -- habe neulich bemerkt, dass es mit dem Kugelschreiber eine andere Frage ist) habe ich auch kein Problem, aber trotzdem, bei einfachen Problemen der Mathe, habe ich bemerkt, dass, wenn man
  besoffen ist, alles viel langsamer und sogar schlechter geht.
  
  Die Vorschau gibt's hier eben nicht, junge. Wer ist daran schuld?!?

  I see. Was this your contribution to the experiment? Dude, you totally type German when you're drunk.
  
  I suppose I should have pointed out that, while I can spell perfectly while drunk, I tend to have issues transmitting that information to my fingers ("I'm perfectly sober, Officer; it's just my body that's drunk"). The only difference between my drunk posts and a classic drnuk pots is I use backspace a lot. Can't confess to ever having tried maths, although I have seen anecdotal evidence that suggests there would be difficulties. I guess the Goggles time limit would be my undoing.
  
  What browser are you using that the preview isn't working on?

  FF 3.0.3. It’s started working again, though, might have been an odd interaction with the Youtube player and the window size?
  
  I’m missing speaking German a bit—I suppose I should go do a conversation exchange. Though my French needs more work …

About

This is LeSinge.org v3.0. It's on its sixth* server since I registered the domain name in November of 2000 and it has gone through several drastic facelifts in that time, usually prompted by some cataclysmic event like someone deleting a load of files they shouldn't, or a server being shut down. This is the maddest layout yet; I'm trying to fit the entire weblog (apart from diary archives and the gallery) into a single loading page using all sorts of PHP-generated DHTML jiggery-pokery. The idea is to make it more inviting to look around since there's no loading between "pages". It's still a work in progress (more a proof of concept than anything), so be patient!

I'm Dave Whyte, an Irish CS graduate, German speaker, linguist and incredibly talented web developer. I'm originally from Fermoy but I now live in Newbridge with my wife Beth and our son. I'm currently working for these fine folks and enjoying it greatly.

"The Monkey"? Eh?

My nom de guerre comes from an old Eddie Izzard comedy sketch. I also like Calvin & Hobbes. I've cobbled together a searchable archive of the strips.
