My cat and I have come to an amicable agreement regarding the office chairs. He gets mine, I get the wierd yuppy kneeling chair thing, and I pet him, in my chair, while I work. Sounds fair doesn’t it. <pause to pet cat> I converted my root partition to RAID0 (striping for speed) today. First […]

Just found another local place to get hardware cheap… A-Power Online. They sound like atic.ca, another hole in the wall. Of course, they have the hard drives I just bought for more than $30 cheaper 🙁 I realize a whole week has gone by, but geez….

I was up till past 1am last night, after a long day at work (which went fast which is good) and a good (well, “Ok”) workout at the gym. I finally got around to installing some new hard drives that Cat5 brought over a couple of days ago and discovered that my current workstation case

Yesterday I went into the place that I’ll be for a while to do a meet and greet with the main programmer there, J. He’s a decent guy with wild hair that makes me think a haircut was completely un-needed. I got a good feel for what the project will entail and how it is
I finally got the photos that were good scanned and uploaded. There is a film I took over the summer and one that was taken with my new Pentax P30t over Decemeber. Some of the December gallery is experimentation, playing around and trying to get a feel for f-stops, exposure, and so on, but there
