Welcome to Joshua's Place
Welcome! This site has been a part of my digital footprint since the early 2000s, serving as a time capsule for the early chapters of my adult life. While I keep this space online as a reflection of where I started, my journey has evolved quite a bit since this site was last updated.
If you want to explore my current business initiatives or personal interests, please visit my new primary site at joshuaclinard.com. Otherwise, feel free to explore the archives!

On Tuesday it was really cold, and the wind was blowing really hard, which made me late to work. They told me that I couldn’t work the breakfast shift any longer. They also didn’t have any positions open for the lunch or dinner shifts, so I will be out of work until after January. Hopefully they will be able to find an lunch or dinner opening for me in January, or I will have to find a new job. Tuesday…

My trip to see Harry Potter and the Sorcerer’s Stone was a great success. I met a lot of nice Harry Potter fans in line, and we had a great time talking to them before the movie started. I thought the film was great. As a staff writer for MuggleNet, I wrote a review of the film. It’s my first review, so don’t expect the most detailed review. I’m gonna try to see the film at the theater again soon.…

The wait is almost over, folks! Harry Potter and the Sorcerer’s Stone is coming to theaters on 11/16/01. I cannot wait to see the film. I’m going to see the film with a girl I asked from work. Her name is Kirsten, and she’s a really cute redhead. I’m going to take her out to dinner at the Bean Sprout before the movie. Just to let ya’ll know, I kinda like her. Hopefully things will work out between us. I…

Our new computer came on Thursday night! I spent all night setting it up, and playing with the new operating system. It will take some getting used to Windows XP. I like it so far, but the interface is really different from what I’m used to - Windows 98. The performance is excellent though. I haven’t had a single crash yet, but it’s too early to tell. Mom is even exploring the possibility of getting a DSL line. Now, that…

After 2 long years of waiting, Star Wars: Episode I will finally be released on DVD this Tuesday! I just can’t wait to finally be able to own a Star Wars movie on the DVD format. In fact, I’m so excited about having Star Wars on DVD, that I just ordered the Star Wars Special Edition Trilogy on VHS, and I can’t wait to watch the Star Wars Trilogy the way it was intended to be seen - in Widescreen!…

We ordered a new Dell computer last week, and it should be here any day now! I cannot wait to get it. It’s a pretty powerful machine, so I will finally be able to install some programs that I have been wanting to use, such as an image editor. This will be my first time using Windows XP!…

Welcome to my new and improved web site. I have been working very hard on it all summer! I have added almost 20 new songs to the CBC Songbook, with more to come soon. I have also changed the fonts and colors. Most importantly, I have finally found a place that will scan all my negatives at high resolution, and it’s not too expensive. When I get the negatives scanned, I will upload all of the CBC photos from 1997,…

Good Morning! I am sorry I haven’t blogged in a while. Yesterday, I found out that if I sell a PowerMac or PowerBook, I will get a $50 bonus in my paycheck! I really like that deal! Next week we are having a little party to get the word out about the new machines, and OS X, which I really like. I also like QuickTime 5, which is included in OS X. Sadly; it is not available to download for…
