Me Oh Me Oh My, Malda Gets Married

For those of you who remember one of our most famous stories, the culmination of said event has happened. The team, plus other friends gathered in scenic Las Vegas this past weekend. The wedding happened on Sunday, 4:11 local time (would have been 4 sharp, 'cept the cabbie bringing the bride got lost). For those of you are nice, you can send congrats to Rob at wedding@malda.org or be a big meanie, like me, and send it to his regular address, like he has done to me. More detail below for other ways - and you can tell Kathleen what a mistake she's made *grin*. And pictures are found online, along with some video.

Wedding was held at the Excalibur Hotel, which was nice. If you want to send postal congrats/bundt cake/fondue pots/yet more place mats, I've included the postal address.

Rob and Kathleen Malda

You can use the convenient online pregnancy calculator for this sort of thing.

Three Picture/Movie Mirrors

[redink1]

As the link to the pictures and movies seems to be going slow (if that), here are three mirrors. Hopefully one will survive.

Mirror 1: No movies

Uh, the machine is still running. There's a wonderful thing called max clients in Apache. So, while the machine may be slow to you, it's running fine for me, logged into it.

So, no, I don't feel any different about it.

Here's a mirror, while it lasts.

Grr... I did this for Hemos's wedding too.... It's silly that they can't do this themselves.

BTW: This isn't a job for GIMP... mogrify does a really nice job of bulk translation...

Once you've saved the (massive) jpeg files, you can do the following: mogrify -resize 14.6666% *.jpg
mkdir smaller
for i in *.mgk ; do mv $i smaller/${i%mgk}jpg ; done
cd smaller
ls | sed '%s_.*_<a href="http://spiderling.blockstackers.com/\~hemos/ wedding/&"><IMG src="&">&</a><BR>_' > index.html

in the sed script, I'm using _ instead of / for obvious reasons (there are slashes all over the edit string). The result should be your own index with smaller pictures (you might want to change the 14.6666% to 33.333 or 50%......

I put the result on my ISPs personal web service
Larger versions (33%) of the pics are there too. Mogrify also seems to do a pretty good job of JPEG compression overall....

I leave it as an exercise for the reader to rotate the thinker image right side up (gotta get to work).

Feel free to make your own mirrors (not like it's my copyright...). I have no idea as to if/when Telus (my ISP) will cut off the page for bandwidth usage.. Hemos... PLEASE feel free to put a copy on your site.

Uh oh...

They gave us their snail mail address. You remember what happened last time we got ahold of one of those. I wonder if Taco needs to get out of debt fast or refinance his home. Perhaps he needs a year's worth of cat food. #Grin#

In all serious, congrats Taco!
