Trivial Christmas-themed Item of the Week

So I just had my Visual Basic semester Final. That’s right. I take Visual Basic classes. REALLY wish it was Python. I mean, will Visual Basic be useful to me in 10 years? It’s not even useful to me now.

 Anyway, my teacher (who is pretty awesome, I mean nothing against him) wanted us to create a Christmas-themed program. But not just any Christmas-themed program–it must use EVERY feature of VB 6 in the known world. This means multiple forms, countless controls, and an IF statement that could frighten a child.

 I finished late at night and was like, “This would make a great * of the Week!” Unfortunately, seven days had not passed between that and my last * of the Week.

 So here is the program. That .zip file includes the executable and Visual Basic source code. Chances are that if you read my blog, you don’t need/want the source. But since I am distributing it under the GPL V3, because I am a nice guy, I’ll just include it for those who are curious. :)

Security Feature of the Week

Well well well… It seems as though my school doesn’t block https. So here I sit blogging from school!

 I think I know how I’m spending my lunches from now on…

Promotional Contest Winner of the Week…

…goes to me!

That’s right. I won a contest. From Carma labs.

Basically, you fill out a form on www.carma-labs.com and get entered in a “weekly drawing” for some Carmex lip balm. I entered because I couldn’t find my little 1/4 ounce jar I had and had a severe case of chapped lips.

So I entered the contest and just a few days later…

Carmex1

Wow! I won a contest!

So I got just what I wanted. Free Carmex. That, and the satisfaction of having rid myself of chapped lips. Thank you, Carma Labs!

* of the Week

I was thinking… maybe I should have a Freakish Picture of the Week… Then I thought maybe I could have a minor inconvenience of the week… Then I thought of all these different “of the Week”’s…

But I can’t have a something of the week for every category, so I thought of a solution…

Ladies and gentlemen, I bring you the * of the Week!

Every week, I’ll have a different thing of the week, like “Really Ugly Poodle of the Week” or “Meaningless Thought of the Week”.

This week’s * of the Week is the * of the Week, in which I announce the * of the Week.
