The weekend is upon us

Bargain Alert: 320gb Hard drive for $80ish .. not too shabby.

Microsoft griefs Sony? Hilarious!

The woot-off is still cranking! Get it while it's HOT!

Do you work with code? Here's a really neat little tool.
Also, on the string of cool things from/for Google stuff... GMail loader! Import old "pre-gmail" mail into your GMail account.

Dilbert is a riot today, so go check it out.

Have a good weekend!! I've got a few things to keep me busy around the house and if we get some time we might go see the TMNT movie!

This just in...

I'm back at work...

This day in history
The first working laser patented this day in 1960. Sometime later, Dr. Evil uses this invention in his evil plot.


My old employer tells the RIAA to pay them for wasting the University's time... HA HA HA. Go UNL!!

Here's a funny link that Haffey sent me yesterday... funny stuff said in court. In honor of Haffey providing me so much material, I've added a new label "Haffey's Links"... in time I hope to go back through what I've already posted and add the label when necessary. This way you can target just the posts with "Links provided by Haffey"(tm).

IT'S A WOOT-OFF PEOPLE!!!!
GOGOGOGOGOGO!!!

What a laugh on this one!

Back in normal rotation tomorrow

I've been off work the last couple of days while tile was being laid in our master bathroom. I got some thing done around the house while the guys put down the tile... after we can mop it real good I'll take one more round of photos and just update this album.

Wear green tomorrow..

Saint Patrick's Day is tomorrow.

I'm going to be building Carson's birthday present... a swing set/playset. We'll see about getting some pics of that up here afterwards. Afterwards we're going over to a friend's place for some celebrating, should be a good time.

I got my new PC! It's huge, I have named it BEAST. LOL Check out the pics.
Next to a normal PC.

It's nearly as big as my son.

The color LEDs on the front and back are able to be changed in the BIOS... I went with blue.

The Ides of March

This day in history
The Ides of March

Generally speaking, a term from the ancient Roman calendar. The Ides fell on the 15th day of March, May, July, or October or the 13th day of any other month.[1] Thus the Ides of March was the 15th day of March.

Specifically, the term is best known because Julius Caesar was assassinated on the Ides of March in 44 BC.



Carson and I hung out yesterday and had a good time. We went to two different parks and generally just had a lot of fun in the really nice weather (I wore shorts!). Here's some pics I snapped.
Spring Break

My new computer should be here today... oh yea, I said OH YEA.

No Wednesday post...

Sorry to disappoint (HA).. but I most likely will not be making a post tomorrow. I'm taking the day off of work to hang out with Carson (he's on Spring Break from Daycare) and I will most likely be no where near a computer. So this Tuesday, late evening edition, will have to hold you over until Thursday.

So Windows Server 2003 released Service Pack 2... As always, install this on a test server first and test it before putting it on your production servers.

So the US Government is going to give out coupons to people to help with the adoption of HDTV... that's ok I guess, as long as they actually do the switch. Hasn't it already been pushed back twice? Not that I'm overly excited at the possibility of them spending 1.5 billion dollars to help make sure everyone can receive TV signals but if they can verify the people they are giving the money to are paying taxes I have no problem.

I took a couple pictures today on the way home from work...
Here's the Colt's complex

Here's a close up of the banner

Here's Eagle Creek Reservoir (with the dam in the distance)

There's a few more of each of those types of pictures in the album there. Hope you all have a good Wednesday.
