Setting up RAID 1
If I get time this weekend I plan to throw two 30gig drives in an older computer I have sitting around and use one of the Promise RAID cards for binding them together. I then plan to Install Windows 2000 Professional. It will be a backup server and backup workstation for my Dad to use. …

Laugh and share a bit…
I had to laugh at this yesterday and decided to share it with you. Scary enough is that some people out there are that way. I know it would be tempting but I do not think I could wear a Superman shirt as my undershirt. My undershirts tend to be either alcohol related tees or …

Oh yeah, when you get a chance check out the tribute site my father has been working on about his father. Some of his siblings have been submitting their own stories and I might put pen to the preverbal paper myself soon. Here is the link http://rip.smock.com/ Yes, there is a story behind the ‘Rip’ …

If anyone is in doubt or outright does not know, phpbb2 is a message board system. I had to update it on two sites today. One of them I used as a test since it is not being used yet. It is www.digitalsheep.org. The other is used a lot so I did it second which …

Stepside gets my teeth wiggling
Yes, the title made no sense. I figured I would step away from the cold and logic side of things and just cut loose, as it were. I am actually thinking of installing Windows 2k on a machine for my father for his server/backup computer. I was thinking of setting up RAID since I have …

Firewire it was called, and it was good…
I recently got a 3.5″ hard drive enclosure that has both Firewire and USB 2.0 connections on it. I did not want to use the usb side of things for a perm. solution so I went ahead and got a Firewire card. One thing I can say is that it may not be hooked directly …

Went to the movies
I went to the movies with my wife on Wednesday to see ‘National Treasure’. We actually walked away liking the movie. I would watch it again if it came up. As I am not one that is good at reviewing but I would recommend that you see it if you have some free time. When …

Tired of spam related crap
You know, it really irritates me when I come to make an entry and find that I have gotten spam comments. I really do not like having to delete them. It seems to be happening once a week or so. Anyway, lates…

KLOL went to KRAP
I got upset when I was listening to a sister station on the AM dial “Talk Radio 950 KPRC” and the guy on there said that across the hall is where 101 is and now he has to hear music he does not understand. I switched over and found out the horrible truth. Ozzy, Metallica, …
