Outta Site

When I got here, lad, all there was was swamp! All the kings said it would be daft to build a castle on a swamp, but I built it all the same... just to show 'em!
-Mother in "Monty Python and the Quest for the Holy Grail"

The above quote pretty much explains what I've been up to at work for the last three months, and the picture on the right is finally living proof that something has been accomplished.

When I got to Concordia in early July, one of the top things on my agenda--I even told everyone who interviewed me--was to create a new website for athletics. Up until today, when we went live with the new website (www.cuieagles.com), you'd see the following...thing...when you visited the athletics page:
So, needless to say, I'm pretty excited about the new website. It's been a pretty trying time getting people who think of me as the new guy from Cal Baptist to get on board with a pretty big decision like this, but I've been learning a lot about patience and just dealing with people in general throughout the whole thing.

I just hope that this project doesn't end up like the first castle, "That one sank into the swamp, so I built a second one..."
