what's the story behind your sig? You don't have to answer if you don't want.

My sig? It is based on a notation by Jack Handey. I work in family crisis counseling and it is amazing to observe the stresses pulling apart the fundamental social structure of society. Money, lust, entertainment are all taking their toll on children, whose lives have been proven to be fundamentally inpacted by the stability of the home in which they grew up. According to the Single Parent Success Foundation, a national nonprofit that encourages educational opportunities for single parents:

• 63 percent of suicides nationwide are individuals from single-parent families.
• 75 percent of children in chemical dependency hospitals are from single-parent families.
• More than half of all youths incarcerated in the U.S. lived in one-parent families as a child.

There appears to be a deep problem within these structures, and it has been my goal to identify why they are so unsuccessful. While I am still far from a conclusion, it has been amazing to see what a change there is in the lives of youth (young men especially) when they have a father figure that comes alongside them to mentor and guide them. Heck, he doesn't even seem to have to do that: he just needs to be there! It also doesn't seem to matter what kind of man the father-figure is: skinhead or neckbeard, engineer or mechanic, they all seem to increase the grades and psychology of youth in positive ways. Anywho, off my hobby horse :D

tl;dr in between ricing and recompiling gentoo kernels, take time to have coffee with a youngster. future society will be impacted by you.

Cheers and happy Sunday to ALL.

Glad you found it. The recompilation is no big deal, I added a dwm-build (or build-dwm) wrapper that does the edit/save/recompile/make procedure for you -- the good thing is, once set up you can use the config.h on various machines, just like any other rc file. You'll get used to it :)


Nice scrots, now make the bar display the date/time and you are set :)

(BTW, the next spin might be a 64-bit DWM/cwm/hcwm bundle, planned for end of August)
