Most of today was spent working on the VB.net project from hell. A greatly amusing rant on why .net sucks, how it’s stupid, and what people should do with it was made by Yohimbe. I still haven’t found two people who can completely agree on just what .net really is. Anyway, lots of work, with […]
So while I’m waiting for WhtDragon to arrive to go over to Yohimbe’s to work on this VB project from hell (which I’m told, was eventually “fixed” by saying “screw the vb” and writing it in Perl), I take the garbage out. On the way out I hear cat yowls, and find, not to much

Well, my system is now a gentoo box. It’s a pretty sweet system, though I don’t feel any huge speed increase. It’s nice to be cutting edge though, using devfs, tmpfs, grub, and a bunch of other neat technologies, simply “there” for you. Compiling everything, and getting it all working nicely did take a couple

Bah, 2:23am and I can’t sleep. Not sure exactly why, but foz always said that if you can’t sleep cause youre mind is going around and around, go and do whatever it is that your mind needs you to do, and then go back to sleep. I don’t want to be up late. I want

Well, it was a full day. I spent part of the morning at a Community Futures [archive.org link] meet and greet networking type thing. Met some cool people as well. The talk that was given wasn’t directed towards people who are creating a small business like mine (ie: not really one at all), but it
Well, I have surived my first day climbing in a while. It was good, we did about 6 climbs, ranging from 5.6 to 5.11a (which I couldn’t make it up… next time though!). It was a hot day and the weather was almost perfect. If the heat could have been turned down just a little

Yup, the weather is too good not to go climbing, so Lawrence and myself are heading up to Squamish in a bit. I managed to find all the gear I need except for the water bottle with a biner on it (someone thought it was old and ugly looking, and that the duct tape around

It’s amazing what the sun can do to you. This afternoon was spent the same as yesterday afternoon, mostly anyway. I packed myself a lunch, grabbed a couple of books, my camera, and headed to sit in the sun and veg. Yesterday it was Mill Lake, today it was Cultas. After Cultas I headed over
