A day off
Looks like I get a day off tomorrow for a holiday. I do wish it was a day off on Friday but Thursday can work. Speaking of working, I am hoping to dig a trench along the whole fence line in the back yard and pour concrete in it. So far our three dogs have …

kiosking around
One of the many things on my plate is trying to get a Linux-based kiosk working for where I work. I have to get it stable then lock it down but make it still useable. I plan to use Firefox as the browser as it works rather well in Windows and Linux. I wanted to …

The elections are over…
Well, this past year or so has had an interesting and somewhat dirty race for the president. I am glad that Bush won over Kerry. I am also glad that Tom Daschle is getting the boot from the Senate. It could not have happened to a nicer guy. Anyway, not much else is going on. …

San Antonio abound
Over at First Community Bank we are opening up a third location in San Antonio. Right now I am using the internet connection in the hotel I am staying at. We plan to go back to Houston tomorrow afternoon but the time depends on when we finish. Anyway, I am going to watch some tv …

Not much to say…
Well, I do not have much to say this entry except that my Grandfather died yesterday, the 24th…..

Birthday parties
This past weekend I went to a birthday party for my Great Niece, Marcie. It was at a gymnastics center kind of place. Normally I just BS with whoever is around but this party I got a chance to hit the springboard and go into a pit of cube-shaped foam type things. I found it …

I can be boring…but not always
I have noticed that when some of the people I know write blog entries they seem to have pages to say. I don’t think I have ever been able to put into words all of what I think, so mine tend to be a bit shorter if not redundant in nature. It has always been …

Guitars and all that rot?
You know, it has been a little while since I have brought out my guitar and attempted to learn it more. My problem is that I am left handed when it comes to playing a guitar and nobody I know, that plays, is left handed so learning how does not get easier. Maybe when I …

Election and the like…
I normally stay out of the political side of things because it just brings discord and strife when brought up but I have to say that I cannot wait until this whole thing is over. I do not think that most of the people in the US of A needed the debates to see whom …

Authentication methods…
A question was presented to me today regarding authentication methods for Windows 2000 servers(and *nix ones) across the Internet so only one login is necessary. While I think there are a few fielded answers, finding one to implement that is secure is not necessarily easy. RADIUS was proposed but Windows 2000 I am not sure …

Easy to forget
It does seem easy for me to forget and update this blog. Oh well, I am doing it today. Right now I am still up at work fixing a database problem. OT here we come…heh. Anyway, I cannot wait until the weekend. I have been having trouble sleeping lately and so Saturday’s have been when …

Dogs…
To start off with, my wife has had a Black Lab dog since before we met and when we finally got a back yard when moving into a house, the dog came along for the ride. Recently my wife and I got two puppies. Needless to say the older dog kinda was upset about all …

She’s ALIVE…again
I finally got my Win2k Server running again. I got a storage repository again. w00t… I still have it sitting on the bench though making sure it works fine before I hold the heavy-assed thing in the air with one arm and screw it back into the rack(yes, the case is rack-mountable). Once this one …

Bowling results
My fingers still hurt from bowling 7+ games in 3 hours. I cannot say that I did bad last night as my highest score was 135. Not too bad for not being a regular bowler and not bowling since last year. Below are my scores not specifically in order: 135 135 121 105 106 99 …

Bowling….
Tonight my nephew Charlie and I are going bowling. We plan to go from about 11p to 2a or so. It will be rather fun I hope. I think I will hurt tomorrow though because we usually play the whole time without stopping.

Learning more and more…
Time has not been kind to me. I have to soon find time to get my Windows 2000 server going again and I plan to rebuild my Unix server that is running FreeBSD. I might wait until the 5.x series goes to stable if it has not already. It really depends on my mood of …

Birthday
I know of this annual thing called a birthday and imagine that mine seems to be today…or at least that is what my parents tell me… I could have a birthday on Feb. 29 and only age every 4 years…well, it would be nice if it worked that way but it does not seem to. …

Yes I know…
I know it has been a while since I updated this thing. Life has gotten in the way so very much since then. I will try to update this more often but that is something I cannot promise. Anyway, just so you all know, I still work at First Community Bank in Houston. I still …
