It seems like the personal drama just won't end. I've been back in crisis mode over the last couple of days trying to put out some fires between a landlord and a friend. Long story short, I'm either gonna have to sue somone or lose a bunch of money I really can't afford to lose. Ugh...

I've written a bit of code and a good chunk of the post about the Dollarville traffic light. It jumps right into threading code. I'm trying to present it in the context of dealing with the time line of the stop light from the time line of something else, but I'm not getting that far with the analogy.

I was originally going to go with traffic, you know change the light to a regular light instead of a flasher and then incorporate traffic. But that's just friggen complicated. I'd have to write alot of code (which sucks); but even more importantly a traffic emulator is a really complex thing.

I got a nifty stoplight built, but the analogy breaks down because there really are no interactions between the light and... exactly. It's just a light that hangs and runs. The only real interaction is has is with a driver or a pedestrian.

haha. I've written myself into a corner. Whatever, I'm sure I'll find a balance when I sit back down to do the rest of the work. l8r... :)
