It's really a shame that I can't update more frequently. It's an even bigger shame that the Super Bowl XLV logo is TERRIBLE. But on the bright side, WHO-DAT!
Saturday is looking good for posting some new material, but I'm not promising anything.
I'm now getting close to buying a new computer. When I made this website, November 11, 2006, I was running a Toshiba Satellite M45. Now I'm rocking a 32-bit MacBook from almost 3 years ago. I have my sights on a 13" MacBook Pro with whatever amazing technology existes in December 2010. My predictions: USB 3.0, 1.5TB (10.5mm thick for that extra platter) hard drive, and an Intel Core i series processor. Who knows, maybe even L3 Cache- Highly unlikely, but a man can dream. (L3 Cache is too nerdy for non geeks to worry about).
OK, that's my update. Perhaps every Monday, I can do one of these.

Hello all! It's been almost 3 months since my last post. So much has happened since my last post. I have just a few things I'd like to announce:
1. Happy new year!
2. My podcast, Workbreach Radio, is going to return soon! We are working on yet another attempt to get the show breathing again. It will work this time, as I'm no longer a stupid middle schooler with no social life or a student of Mission High School.
Workbreach Radio will have a format which will be like "Mclauglin Group" meets "BBC's Fighting Talk", with a pinch of actual new and commentary. It will be licensed as creative commons, and It will be badass!
3. My resume will have to wait for internet posting.
4. My drawings WILL be posted...eventually.
I hope I will get back into a normal schedule of posting.

One
Movie!
Epic Space Battle, A production of Workbreach and TILT Media was revolutionary in the way it used Google SketchUp, and now, one year later, we bring you "When Bananas Attack", a movie set in the same reality, one year later.
The story goes as follows: The Center for Earthbound Unusual Activity (CEUA) discovers that evolved bananas can make you go luny for an hour, but don't do anything to help because they are on a retrofitted weather satellite. Mild humor ensues.
Enjoy! I have also added caption vision to the movie "Mission: Very Unlikely", partly because of how bad the audio was on that movie. I might add captions and subtitles to other movies in the future.
---
I have discovered the answer to why many of my videos have poor quality video. It is dure to software degradation, and should not be a major problem anymore, other than that I have a camera that only shoots 480i, and through software, I must encode it with AIC at 720p.
Coming whenever I get a new camera, my movies following that will be in 1080p, or "Full HD".

First of all, a very happy thanksgiving to everyone. I hope we can all be thankful for all that we have, and mind those who are less fortunate than us.
So...looks like my written resume is still not up, so this website will be my resume.
As for the drawings, they are still on the way, but like everything else on this website, when it comes out is determined by how much work I have to do elsewhere, such as in school, and the school I go to gives a lot of it.
And now for the sections that will be on the website as time goes on. (Subjet to Change)
MAIN - You are Here.
ABOUT ME - See an updated version of "First time Here?" combined with "Contact Me"
MOVIES - I am overhauling my YouTube videos to bring only videos that I have made that don't suck. Some of them really need to go. The page will eventually be reconfigured.
ON THE DRUMS - Showcasing my skills on the drums, as well as the set I play on.
3D GRAPHICS - Showcasing my work mostly on Google SketchUp, with a hint of Planetside Terragen, and Final Cut.
2D GRAPHICS - Showcasing my work on a flurry of paint-like programs, edited photography, and drawings.
PODCAST - I've done 2 different podcasts, both of which have failed. Hopefully the third time will be the charm.
M.S.C. - I used to do Sonic Sprite comics when I was in middle school. I might choose to display them at a later date.
LINKS - To my stuff, my friends' stuff, or whatever I think is cool.

So, welcome (back) to workbreach.com, the website ruled by the brain of me, Elijah Post. To those who don't know already, this website has all of the graphical stuff and other multimedia, like drawings, and music, that I've been making since I was 4 years old. The site also plays host to whatever I think of or want to say. i run and control it- total control BWAH HA HA!!!
So?the site is being renovated for the time being, so most of my stuff is offline now, but it'll all be back by the end of the month.
Today I'm announcing that my resume will now be available for viewing and download in about 2 weeks. And i'm adding some of my drawings soon too.
Expect a detailed description of each section in a post coming soon.
P.S. Hi, health class!

Much has changed since my last update. I don't have much time right now to write this, but I'm back and I'll be writing more soon. My IT problems just reached it's climax with the destruction of 4 of my Hard Drives- a total capacity of 1380GB of storage, lost. And a big bleeping hole in my wallet. I have no more scratch or transit drive, so I have not made a single edit of video for 2 months.
Yet so much good among the bad. I finally leard how to ride a bike, "Epic Space Battle" was excepted into a film festaval, and I transfered out of Mission into a great new High School.
The site will now undergo massive overhall....

Exodus Tyson is dead. 4 years ago, when her birth was mentioned on the news, my dad perdicted this would happen based on Mike Tyson's astrology. Trippy...and tragic that he was right.

Yesterday, Rush (I don't know how to spell his last name), the insane radical right-wing looney, called judicial nominee Sonia Sotomayor a "Reverse Racist". Saying that she hates whites. This is one of the great political FAILs of the week. By calling her that–as if to insult her–, he shot himself in the foot. This remark is almost as dumb as "Opposite Sex Marrige". The opposite of a racist is a non racist, the defination of racist is not limited to whites, and he puts a bad name to any white person who agrees with him becarse of the reason I said before.
The G.O.P. is in deep trouble now. All that seems to be left running the party are Michel Steele, Sarah Palin, Bobby Jindal, Rush Whats-his-spelling, and miss U.S.A.

If anyone wants a comment from me on the CA Supreme courts desision on prop 8, I'll just compare it to the Dred Scott Decision.

Today the dow is up enough to get back the losses of the last two weeks. I think a three day weekend is exactly what we needed.
Over the memorial day weekend, I was looking for a Best Buy in Colma (a solid 30 miles from my home), and got lost in a graveyard. As I walked passed the military section, I saw that at the top of whatever it would say, the emblem of thier religion would be circled. I wondered what would it would look like if that fallen hero was an athiest.
This week, we are dealing with the contravercy over tourchure. The G.O.P. first said that enhanced interragation tecniques never happened, than when it was exposed as happing all the time (in some cases the detainees were waterboarded 5 times a day, had thier nailes pulled out, had been smashed against walls, been forced to eat pork and drink alchahol against thier religion), they said that it was nessessary to protect the country. Now thier next level of excuse is we said it was O.K. because doubl-ya said it was.
Instead of military tribunals and holding them indefinatly, we would be breaking less human rights laws if we simply shot them in the head. Also, WHERE THE HELL DID THE REPUBLICANS THINK THE DETAINEES GO AFTER GITMO? THE NORTH POLE? Did they think Santa would take care of it for them.
Violating human rights laws are not in the intrests of national security. Solar Panels are. It's time to really start the 12-step program of Oil-Anomyous. Not just raising standered for oil. This is the kind of thing that can fix our economy as well as put some much needed oxygen into the air. It works for everyone. We all know that the G.O.P. has enough oxygen to the brain problems already.

New stuff coming in I don't know when. I'm working for other entities for the moment.

So let's take a look at what we have learned in the past 7 days.
1. The presedent of the United States may, as much as he wants, cap on his administration. "Today is mother's day", Barack said. "Which is diffucult for Rahm Emanual because he is not used to using the word DAY after the word MOTHER."
1A: GAWD DAMN, BARACK- THAT'S BRUTAL!!!
2. Secratary of Defences are allowd to fire thier commanders for no reason at all. Which makes sence considering that the same thing is happening to the employees of companies that pay billions in bounses to thier CEOs.
3. Giants fans can be good in the ring. Just ask Manny Pacquiao.
4. I just learned that I can spell Manny Pacquiao.

Today, as the dow struggles to stay afloat, and more rumors about the upcoming WWDC take shape, I stop to say something compleatly unrelated. Today, I am announcing the consolidation of Mega Sonic Comics and Workbreach Radio to form "Miscilanious Projects". This way I will have more creative choices as to the next piece of media I would want to add to the site.

After seeing the new Star Trek Movie, I now understand why Star Trek Nemesis was a flop when It was in theaters back in 2002.
In 1966, nobody had a device that could find anything for you, tell you where the resteraunt was, and give you driving directions, and still have room for talking to people in far away places while being able to fit in your shirt pocket. Even in 2002, phones existed, and could do things that Cmdr. Data's tricorder couldn't. We trekkies need to understand that although that movie had a genuine bad plot, it's a much needed modernization of Star Trek. Something that would have compleatly pleased us would have been such a flop that Star Trek would not have been able to Survive. You can compare it to Get Smart and it's modernization.
Star Trek has had 3 eras now.
The 60's Era: Consisting of just the origional series.
The 2nd Era: Consisting of Everything from "Star Trek: The Motion Picture" (1979) to "Star Trek Enterprise" (2000-2004)
The 3rd Era: Which, I believe started yeaterday with "Star Trek" (2009)
Star Trek will now continue as a modernized and adapted franciise for the 21st Century.
Now, if we only knew which century the next movie would be in. 23? 24? Or maybe something compleatly new?

So...Spring Break dod not exactly go as I planned. I accomplished almost nothing because my dad ran into computer problems...again. This time it took a new 7200RPM 1/4TB HD and an extra half gig of RAM as well as 4 days to fix it. He needed all his files transfered, he needed his old drives enclosed, he needed a copy of mirosoft office that wasn't 7 years old. The list goes on and on. But on the bright side, I'm still working on my broshure, and I upgraded my own computer's HD from a fifth terrabyte to a half terrabyte. And I got a really kickass enclosure for my old one. A new photo in the first time here section might come soon.
And now the DOW(N) is back into the 7000's. I still think we are finally bottoming out, but it's going sooo ssllooow.
Here's something awsome I found out: The first emoticon was found in an 1860's transcript of an Abe Lincoln speech.
DAMN YOU AUTOMATIC SMILEY FACE GENERATOR-WHEN-IT-SEES-MY-BEAUTYFUL-EMOTICON-ER!!!
I've been gone a while, haven't I?

Vince from Shamwow was arrested after beating a prostitute he had payed $1000 for what he called "Straight Sex". He started to kiss her, then she bit his tounge and wouldn't let go.
With that little tidbit of information, I wonder- the U.S. Government as well as many states are having this debate over leagelizing and taxing pot. I am all for that, but I'd take it one step further. If taxing churches' real-estate to elimate half the deficite is too radical for you, how about taxing prostitution? Hookers will never go away. It's the world's oldest profession- they've been around longer than Larry King. So instead of insisting on erraticating prostitiution, why not tax it insted? just put a 2% tax on it, let it happen, then take the money. In just 24 hours, over $20 million could be generated. We would be out of this econimic sh*thole in less than a month. And we'd be back to the Clinton days (no pun intended) in less than a year.
Moving on, I'm working on a brosure about my services as a PowerPoint artist Etc. I'll post up as soon as it's ready, and my upcoming Spring Break hangover goes away.
I might be in New York City over the spring break, so I might not be able to post the usual complement of updates.
Mega Sonic Comics Part 5 - Coming Soon
Workbreach Radio IX - Maybe Next week, with yet another show format.
I'll see if I can dole out a few 2D and 3D Graphics too.
Next Music Remix in the works. Have to remove Ode to the Macintosh because it infringes on more copyrights than I origionally thought.
Videos - I've got a kind of suprise for that one. Stay tuned.

First of all, For three years I have had this website to show everyone what I can do and what floats my boat, and I'd like to thank everyone who helped and supported me over that time. But now...
Hey! You did not actually think I was leaving or something, right? Your celebration is pre-mature! Ha! You thought CarTalk was bad!
Today, I have added workbreach.com to the Webs public area. So, hopefully I'll improve traffic.
Also, I will soon have a new Status: FOR HIRE.
I've decided to take my skills and put them to good work, and hopefully putting some much needed cash in my pocket. What I currently have on my website is only the tip of the iceberg of what I can really do. I specialize in PowerPoint and Keynote presentations, and people doing those for others usually charge alot more than I will. I've been at it for 12 years, so no worries there. More Information TBA.

Has anyone (as if anyone actually reads this) seen, used, or own a third generation iPod Shuffle? After what I said? Well, I've decided to go ahead and but one of these because I could use it at the gym.
I just learned that failblog.org is not blacklisted by the SFUSD. The SFUSD has blacklisted around (rough estimate) 50 million websites, and to get that number I had to look at 10 websites because the first 9 have been blocked. Everything from MySpace (Understandable) to the HONORABLE Onion News Network (What the Fvck is that?)
ME: Who the Hell approved blo0cking the onion new network.
SFUSD: The ONN is a tabloid and filled with disinformation.
ME: And preaching the 1st amendment then blacklisting 1 out of 3 websites isn't?
SFUSD: We only block sites with objectional images and content?
ME: You never blocked the McCain Campaign.
SFUSD: You should be getting your 60 minutes a day.
ME: I'd Love to but with 2 hours of homework per person per class, as is your policy, It will be Jimmy Fallon time before I can go out.
SFUSD = San Francisco Unified School District
SFUSD = Super Fvcked Up School District
