A real internet gem…
Agh, the internet. This is funny: porno, the church and you. Seriously, is there anything not on the internet?

Just about a month…
I said 2 months and it turned out to be just about one month. We had 2 inches of sloppy wet stuff on the ground last weekend. I had to buy a new pair of Sorels to keep the feet dry. Unfortunately, it seems I’m a perfect 12.5 shoe size. 12’s are too tight and [...]
Knock, knock. Who’s there? Fall!!!
Yeap, fall is here. Got some shots of the glacier again and looking at the pics you can definitely tell that fall is knocking on the door. Just walking the dog around the block the roads are starting to get covered in leaves. I give it 2 months max before the snow starts to [...]
Sailboats vs. Motorboats
So, I’ve spent the last couple of weekends looking at boats. I found a few stinkers, but also some very nice looking and in decent shape trawler yachts. However, what I haven’t found as of yet is a decent sailboat. I was very close to putting an offer down on a nice 36′ Hershine trawler, [...]
Seriously, it’s raining…
Yeap, it’s raining again. I came out of work today and luckily I had actually brought a jacket this time as it was dumping pretty good. Now, the fun thing about the rain up here is that it doesn’t always fall straight down. The wind was coming up the channel at a pretty good clip, [...]

Well, it was a rainy Labor Day, so I spent it upgrading Wordpress and finding some bugs in WPG2. Changed themes for good measure. Snow is already falling on the peaks near the glacier and winter is knocking on the door. Welcome to September
The sun is shining…
It’s been a craptastic summer if you wanted to see the sun a lot. There have been maybe 4-5 days of nice sun since Memorial Day and we haven’t seen the high 70’s since before Memorial Day. However, today was gorgeous. I finally made it up the Granite Creek trail and wow…just amazingly beautiful up [...]
awesome movie quote…
One of my favorite quotes:
I’ve seen things you people wouldn’t believe. Attack ships on fire off the shoulder of Orion. I watched c-beams glitter in the dark near the Tannhäuser Gate. All those … moments will be lost in time, like tears…in rain. –Roy Batty; The Blade Runner
Kubuntu 7.10 = Fail for your parents
I had installed Kubuntu 7.10 a week ago so I could ssh tunnel some remote X apps that FreeBSD doesn’t have native support for. This means you Adobe (Flash) and VMware (server console)! Anyways, this morning for some reason the box had reverted back to it’s old DHCP assigned IP address vs. the one I [...]

A good quote for the sys admins of the world:
When a problem occurs on a Windows machine the Windows admin says “What happened?” When a problem occurs on a UNIX machine the UNIX admin says “What did I do?”
Thanks Chris.
