Fun with Flash

Everybody seems to be creating weird, wacky Flash animations. There's Hyakugojyuuichi, of course, and Hatten är din, and so on and so forth.

When Flash 5 came out, I was lucky enough to snag a cheap copy of Flash 4 from a remainder bin, but never got around to installing it on my machine. But when the AI game came out, with its myriad nifty Flash-intensive sites, I was inspired to learn how to use it, and so I created a fake "Shipbrook Architecture" site for my entry into the International Association of Sentient Architecture's "Debutante Ball".

Of course, it would be a shame to learn Flash and then only use it for one project, so I turned my attention towards solving one of the most pressing issues of our time: the controversy surrounding Chief Wahoo, the mascot of the Cleveland Indians baseball team.

My wife -- an Ohio expatriate who worships Drew Carey and who would cheerfully kill Art Modell with her bare hands if given the opportunity -- calls it sacrilege.
