What's new February 19, 2002 :

Uhmn. Ha ha ha. Well, it's been a while, hasn't it. Not quite a year though. And nothing "new" to show for it either. Except that I just moved the site to a different location. You'll now find that www.imitationpickles.org sends you to www.philhassey.com/pickles. I did this to save money, and reduce the amount of complication in my life.

But get ready. Some day I'll update this site again. Maybe soon. Though I wouldn't be betting a whole heck of a lot of cash on that if I were you.



March 23, 2001 : Here we go..

March 16, 2001 : And yet another update!
  • Story Hour has another three stories! A Dr. Zoller Christmas, Christmas Tree Time, and Phil and Dan Turn Bad. Only 9 months and 9 days until Christmas!


March 7, 2001 : More Excitement and Adventure!

March 2, 2001 : More Updates!
  • Story Hour two new stories: Phil and Dan's Halloween (with Real Audio) and Playing the Viola.


February 23, 2001 : Tah day. Imitation Pickles has been around for just over two years now! Aren't you proud!
As a special suprise, for the next month, I think I'll be able to make weekly updates. :)
Anyway, lots of new stuff to check out:
  • Dan and Doug's Adventures in the Holy Land - Episode 1 - Dan's Plane Ride. This is going to be a brief 3-5 episode Adventure game series. Please click on 'help' when you get to the game if you don't understand how adventure games work. They're kinda fun. For this first episode you'll be playing the character of Dan. (And if you're really lazy, you can just click on "Hint" for hints, or "Solve" for the solution of the game, which is kind of like a story.)
  • Galcon is back up. And now it's running on my friend Jason's computer. It also has all new graphics, and is running on PHP instead of perl. So it will work more often now. :) Check that out, at least to see the new title screen.
  • Story Hour has some updates now. I've added the story Beasts of Burden in Real Audio format. So now you can listen to my stories right off the website. I'll be adding some more stories, some with Real Audio, later. Also, the ones with audio, you may need to turn your volume up a lot.
  • Lastly, email me if there are any problems with the above items. If you find that Galcon or Dan and Doug's Adventures aren't working, please tell me what went wrong.


December 19, 2000 : My Christmas update is here!
  • Pretty Christmas logo added above. Merry Christmas. Have fun, sing Christmas Carols for me.
  • I updated my email address. The old one probably doesn't work any more.
  • The Rustic Classics have been updated with several new games in the C++ version.
  • I made a site in exchange for marbles, check it out Dan's Marble Marvels.


October 18, 2000 : A myriad of exciting additions are here!
  • In Story Hour about eight new stories have been added. Check them out. Some are re-written Shen Memoirs, others are older stories, and four of them are all new exciting things..
  • An all new Shen Memoir is here. It is the long awaited "Kert 'the mac' Richardson" episode. Also Justin McDonald has added Appendix B: Refining Gold. Which is a historical look at my dating advice.
  • Also I added a links page. It will likely never be updated, and is probably wrong already.


August 11, 2000 : Check out some stuff I should have put up ages ago. Pictures of Junk, which is a new section. Now things like my apartment are in there two. The new stuff is pictures of Tim Inge's haircut, and some pictures from new years I wanted to put up. Very exciting.

June 1, 2000 : Boy, it's been a while. Check out ...butterflies... it's a mindless little game. :) Dedicated to Mark Williams and Tim Inge. I also updated the Mark Williams is Ugly pages. Two new ugly pictures of the man.

February 26, 2000 : Well, due to a bug in Galcon, my cgi-bin was disabled. I have thus removed the game, until I fix the problem. (There are still links to it, but they won't work, I may remove them sometime soon.) My website was down for the last week and a half because my hosting service took a long time to reactivate it. Have a good break.

January 3, 2000 : Happy new year. Amazing isn't it, all those Y2K food bunker people were wrong. I petted a cow for the year two thousand. I've also added some more junk: Enjoy the year, don't fall in.
