Long time again!

January 24th, 2010

So again I have done a bad job updating this. Since my last post I have graduate and found a job and relocated to Ridgeland, MS. Right now I am currently watching the N.O. Saints vs Vikings game and it just entered over time. I have changed my DNS to my new IP. I am working on getting everything setup with the server and what not.

Long Time, No Post

August 24th, 2009

Well it has been a while without a post. Summer has come and past. I had a good break. I am in the second week of my last semester at Mississippi State University, I am ready to be done. I have been doing a lot of all terrain biking. I can’t call it mountain biking due to the lack of mountains. I tore down my black single speed and gave new life to the 830al. The forks on both bikes were shot and I could not afford to get two new forks. The drive-train on the 830al was shot. I decided to combine the two bikes and make one. I bought a used Rock Shox Tora 302 off Craigslist and rebuilt the fork and set it up for the 830al. I then harvested the conversion kit from the black single speed to put on the 830al. So now I am down to one mountain bike which is single speed.  I am doing quite well on it. I thought it would be to hard with all the geared people around here but I am keeping up very well. I can tell I am gaining a lot of power out of riding single speed. So now I have more 1×1 bikes then geared bikes. I got rid of a total of two bikes this summer, Michelle should be proud. I donated the frame and some of the parts from the black single speed to my friend Ryan. School is going well, for the first week. I am taking some interesting classes. I think Computer Forensics will be my favorite.  I have officially finished my last first week of school. Every day down is a day closer to being done. Lets hope I update this more frequently.

The Mac OS X Support Essentials v10.5 Exam

May 7th, 2009

So, in this month of may, I don’t have school, but I have been itching to learning something that I want to learn. Although I don’t think I will learn much, I bought the Apple training book for their 9L0-402 test. I plan on reading it this month and hopfully taking the test before school starts in june. I think the book will be good to cover any gaps in my knowledge, and would be a good starting point for my testing and certifications. I have always wondered about A+ and Network + but at this point I figure my job history speakes more then what those test will. I hope the book comes in before the Iowa trip so it will give me something to read on the drive. Also I am playing around to get a higher grasp of CSS.

May

May 6th, 2009

It is very nice having time off for a bit. Just having a normal schedule of work from 8-5 and coming home and being able to relax a bit. Michelle and I played tennis for an hour and a half yesterday and then I road bikes with bryan. Today I worked on the manifold for the protege. Worked on porting and polishing the intake. Did some research. The lug nuts came in. I plan on putting them on later, to replace the couple ones I had to get from auto zone after loosing some. Here is a picture of the manifold after 3/4 of the way ported.

Finals are over

May 1st, 2009

Today was the first day since finals were over. It was quite nice, to just mentally relax. Today was also “Bike to Work Day.” I got a good sleep last night and woke up all by myself at 630 and got ready for the ride into work. Met up with the group at 7:20 to ride at 7:30. We road in as a moderately sized group. it was something different. Michelle graduates tomorrow. Her family is coming up in the early AM. I won’t say it will be fun, but I am sure I will have a great time hanging out with every one. I am very Proud of her, although I don’t think the fact that its over has quite hit her yet. So far I have one grade, I got a B in data comm, which I am very happy with. I did some editing on my site today as well, and worked on some CSS. Tonight I am going to relax with some friends, maybe upgrade to Iphone 3g 3.0 software, and clean.
