Just when you thought that everything at work was ok, they switch where you work and at what time.... I am looking for a Linux box right now...The best option that I have been able to find is on the Wal-Mart site. Check it out and let me know what you think of the setup. I will have to find a monitor somewhere....probably at a thrift store there in Berkeley. Out of the Closet in Berkeley is one of my favorite places. I think the monitors there are about 25.00....That should work, what if I score a really nice Trinitron or something....Last night I had to discuss the difference between cheap tin foil and good tin foil. I had just put a nice, delicious DeGiornos pizza in the oven....placing it on tin foil new out of the box....walked away, and you know what I found 30 minutes later....the pizza and the tinfoil had "melded". Ok, what happened to that tin foil that mom used to buy that you could reuse, panel the side of a car with??? That brought me to the second part of the discussion which was " When you are sitting there and you find that the toilet paper you are holding in your hand is not to the level of quality that keeps your finger from poking through....what do you do???" Ever had anyone come up to you and give you 11 rolls of toilet paper....My personal favorite is Cottonelle....and for you users of cheap toilet paper "Didn't your mother tell you to not eat with your hands???"

My back is really giving me problems....I walk around and feel this pain all the way down to my foot. Sucks to be me!!! Today is going well. No major issues at this point....Just started a new post over at Timberfrog.com The software that I am trying out is called Red Squid It works for us that need multiple window views of web based apps. Also it works for the opening of explorer trees. Like it so far. I think I will be getting some sushi here soon. You would not believe what I had for dinner last night....I opened the lid to the pot and it was just like one of those scary movies....all octopus arms and mussels.......I had to eat it....I thought....or I would make the cook unhappy....I ate it and she was unhappy anyway.....yuck!!!! I'm sure some people would just love it....but not me.....yuck!!! I always say thank you and smile away...so dont think I am not grateful......oh, by the way.....I found some really good screen savers at Download.com and here is one for Christmas.......3D Christmas Screensaver
Ever get to work and find that your email is locked up because someone has sent you an email that is multi-meg??? Surrrrrre, we know about those....here is one sent with the best intentions....not big like this....just put the Patsy Cline song that was embedded in the page with it.......
My instructions were to send this to four people that I wanted God to bless and I picked you. Please pass this to four people you want to be blessed as well as the person who sent it to you. This prayer is powerful and there is nothing attached, please do not break this pattern, prayer is one of the best gifts we receive. There is no cost but there are a lot of rewards; let's continue to pray for one another.
"Lord, I ask you to bless my friends, relatives and email buddies reading this right now. Show them your love and power. Father, I ask you to minister to their spirit at this very moment. Where there is pain, give them your peace and mercy. Where there is self-doubt, release a renewed confidence through your grace.
"Oh God, Your Sea Is So Great and My Boat Is So Small"

Well, I am home now.....just trying to wind down so that I can take my nap. I know that if you have been reading this, you are probably saying " Hey fat butt, get yourself to the gym!!!" Ha ha....not till a nap cause I will be totally grumpy if I dont....:) I hope that all of you are still at work and bored or busy off your butts....have a nice day....
Almost done with my work day...nothing to report other that I have had a really "good" day...Damn I used "that" word again. My back is not hurting anymore. I think I will get off my lazy butt tonight and go swimming or something...better do it now before I croak from a heart attack. I was actually thinking about that the other night....I am only 31 and I am thinking about heart attacks...I can see the commercial now....Later
Here is an interesting link to a news page. From the Wilderness.Trying to look at different scenarios to the news, one finds that the "staple" of information resides on all the national channels. I am always interested on "other" points of view and hypothesis. Today is going ok, my back is killing me. I have to get more excercise in my day. I sit here and ask myself "Why did you get the membership to the YMCA if you never use it?" Pure and simple laziness. That is the trap, laziness will keep my back hurting. Waaaaaaa.

I went and saw the movie "Bowling for Columbine". Wow, what a thinking movie. I miss being able to go to a movie and having it as much of me during as after...I could not stop thinking about the message that it offered. That "maybe" we are an overly armed nation, and that obviously there were too many guns around. That the ease and use of getting and using guns, their ammunition, was linked to the 12,000 deaths a year that occured through firearm use....I dont want my children to have this in their lives...hmmmmmm. More later....

A little bit "earlier" in the day....Wow, it has been a really long time since I stayed up this many hours. I have to say that the experience is not all that pleasant...3 more hours before anyone else shows up....and I really dont know what I should report on. I mean I was trained and all but there are still some questions in my mind....I wonder why all of the lights stay on....is it cheaper to keep them on or to turn off those that aren't needed....Oh, well...We have a ping-pong table here and a pool table. I think that I will rack up a game of pool now....I hope that I dont hurt myself...ha ha ha. By the way...I got the new Maximum PC Magazine today and it rocks. Too Bad that I dont have the system to mess with anymore...but maybe next year. Looking at my new schedule...I have 4 x 10 hour days starting after the 8th....good for me....:)...Well, later. Or should I say "earlier"....
Almost 1:00am...oh fun. Learning is what learning does....I sure wish I had a few more hours of sleep today...I am going to be dead tomorrow...:( . So I hope everyone has a chance to take yourself of your youngest friend to go see Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets....Ok, where are the secrets? I didn't see any of them...hmmmm. The website is cool, as long as you have broadband...or something fast....I enjoyed it very much with my son, althought the movie ran a little long....my 4 year old was glued in the whole time...3 hours of glued in is huge for him. I love seeing his excitement and his eyes go wide with wonder....A beautiful thing.....
