Been working since September

I got a nifty job at a company that is an MSP. It is a Managed Service Provider here in Houston, TX. It has plenty of variety and keeps me thinking usually. I also get to tinker with deployment, which is nice and one of my favorite things to do. I enjoy automation and making …

New Super Mario Brothers Wii

Not too long ago I got a new game for my Wii. I had a gift card from Christmas so I did not pay the $50 needed to purchase such a game. First thing, it always irritates me that Super Mario games almost always cost 50 bucks. Mario Freaking Soccer tends to cost as much …

Preparing for some gaming

I just dug out a game I have not played in years because I am going to try and make it to a LAN party next weekend(I think). The game I am referring to is called Quake. Yes, it is rather old but the name was tossed around as a potential game to be played …

Ozzfest 2005

To be short, it was fun. My sister Sherie, my Nephew Charlie, and my Niece’s husband Richard went with me to Ozzfest yesterday. We got there a little after 10a or so even though it started at 9a. It was very hot so I was drinking water most of the day. I watched some of …

The Weekend is coming up

Well, this has been a long week and I am really glad the weekend is tomorrow. I do not have a lot planned so I might do some work on one of the computers I am getting working for the Inlaws. I also have extensive plans for much of the stuff in my computer room …

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 …

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 …

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 …

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 …

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.

The New Year

The New Year’s Eve thing was cool. My nephew and I shot off some fireworks. Toward the end we did a stupid thing and held onto the launchers for the artillery shells. Charlie was able to hold onto it somewhat ok… I on the other hand was more worried about holding too tight and restricting …

Watch out for Pennywise…

Good ol’ Pennywise the clown. Yeah, I got IT on DVD a few days ago. It was under ten bucks so I went for it so to speak. It takes a lot for me to get tired of that movie. I turned on the commentary track with this most recent viewing. It had the director …

Weekend as it were…

I am glad the weekend has creeped up on me because I need it to take care of some stuff and do some quick learning of FreeBSD as I want to get it going on my home network. On another note, that Sobig.F trojan that seems to be going around is irritating me a bit. …

Snowcones

Ahh, the simple joys of having a snowcone. Been a long time since I have had one. I got a large cup that contains the necessary ingredients pertaining to a snowcone. My favorite flavour(notice the English spelling) is ‘bubblegum’.
