work update 9/10/2008
About two weeks ago our CIO had called for a Town Hall meeting again. I actually missed most of the call because there’s only Carl and myself on site, and we both happen to be working. When I rang in the Questions and Answers had begun. So I missed most of the information being put out there, I was able to get out with “What is happening to our group FTS?” The reply came quickly....

Jeremy Hernandez helped 50 kids on the school bus trapped on the fallen Minneapolis bridge last week. He was offered a photo op with President Bush and said “Nope”. It’d be hard for me right now to want a picture with the man too. I used to be a huge Bush supporter but, something has changed with him since 9/11. On one hand he’s the most powerful man in the free world. On...

This is a pretty good article, but something everyone seems to forget- All of Congress approved the invasion of Iraq. Now it all rests on Bush. Now, I’m not totally behind what’s going on over there but I sure support the troops and wish them the best and hope they come home soon. We shouldn’t be surprised that we were lied to by the Government, it happens with every new...

Fridays Feast - Left overs
Appetizer On a scale of 1 to 10 (with 10 being highest) how much do enjoy watching sports on television? Depends on the sport… Baseball is my fav, followed by football, and soccer. So a 5, I’d rather be at the game than watch on tv. Soup If you could completely memorize any one work of fiction, which one would you pick?The Hobbit/Lord of the Rings Salad What is your favorite...
7th Son - Descent
I just finished 7th Son book one, and starting book two. If you like audio books this is definitely one to get your hands on. It’s about 7 men brought together to find a killer and find out they’re all clones. They just so happen to be clones of the man they’re hunting down. If you like thrillers this is definitely for you. You can get it from podiobooks.com. When looking for...
Michael Vick
I’ve been watching the progress of the indictment of Michael Vick. If you’ve been out of the loop he’s a quarterback for the Atlanta Falcons that has been picked up for illegal dog fighting. The news has been showing the authorities come out of his home with dogs on poles being placed in trucks. They’ve also been playing videos of what happens in a dog fight. It’s...
On the Road
Well today is day two on the road. I think I got a bug from someone on the plane yesterday. So I was up all night and of course I missed work. So far this has been the worst trip on the road. The area here in Tucson reminds me of the town I grew up in Texas. Cactus, mesquite trees, and dirt. Not much to do during the heat of the day. While I’ve been in my hotel room I’ve watched a...
Ubuntu Weekend
All I can do is say is Whoa! This weekend I used Ubuntu as much as possible. I started my gaming pc only to find out I have a disc going bad. So I pretty much stayed away from it. Games aren’t that important right? Right? Well I made my way through most of the OS with the help of my friend Fabian, he’s still learning too, but was a huge help in my step forward in loosing the windows...
Linux cont.
This weekend I decided to pretty much have a Linux only weekend. So far so good. Anything I’ve wanted to work on or do has been pretty easy. After downloading every imaginable version of Linux known to man, I’ve pretty much stayed with Ubuntu. It was simple to dual boot (especially after consulting with my Linux guru buds Dan and Fab). I ended up having to get a new wireless router,...

Linux
This week I’ve gone a little Linux crazy. We use Fedora for our audio/video producers at work. So to brush up on it I’ve bought a book and so far I’ve downloaded 10 versions of the operating system. A few friends are pretty heavy into Linux and have offered as much help as I could possibly use. There’s definitely a difference in the Linux community than there is in Widows....

O Lord, bless this thy Angel Sword Guitar, that with it thou mayst blow Christina Aguilera and A-HA and Ricky Martin and Enrique Iglesias to tiny bits, in thy mercy. If you want it, follow these steps: first shalt thou get to eBay. Then shalt thou pay $4,500, no more, no less. Sadly it won’t play Guitar Hero. Jump for a high definition image.

A touching personal interview with Mike Ryan, a 9/11 first responder now dying from toxic dust at ground zero. He discusses how his personal life has been affected since 9/11, gives his perspective on the collapse of WTC Building 7 and the difficult path to medical treatment facing many of our forgotten heroes now fighting for their lives.

The Space Shuttle Atlantis separated from the space station Tuesday morning. I happened to stumble upon the fact that they would be close together for a while, and decided to check my local view. They would pass almost directly overhead at 10:00 p.m. local time! Added bonus: they would be pretty bright, so I could easily get good pictures of them.

In a statement obtained by RAW STORY, September 11th Advocates Patty Casazza, Monica Gabrielle, Mindy Kleinberg, and Lorie Van Auken write, “Almost six years have passed since the attacks of September 11, 2001, yet critical information continues to be withheld from the American public regarding the attacks.”

The Nuge’s reaction to Paul McCartney’s firing of several roadies for sneaking hamburgers while on tour. McCartney is a known animal rights activist and defender of PETA. According to Ted, it looks like he just can’t “live and let live.”
