Many times when busy there are two things I (and many people in general) start to fail at. Number 1 would be physical exercise. Number 2 would be journal/blogging/reading.
Also in number 2 I’m not talking about the stupid emo “what if she/he isn’t the one for me” bullshit. I mean the people who think that I mean this when I ask if there is an update on the crisis in georgia.
Oh PS I think that Burn After Reading is shaping up to soon be a favorite comedy of mine.

Phelps… wow… best of luck good sir at breaking the world record of gold medals earned. You’ve already tied it and are indeed an amazing athlete.
As it would be, it appears our current commander in chief has made quite the while watching Phelps. (more…)

Weekend full of tragedy. Bernie Mac, Isaac Hayes, and luckily no one seriously hurt in the toronto propane explosion although a firefighter did die of a heart attack on the scene

So yeah… I haven’t posted much. Last weekend was the first weekend in two months I had at home, I went hiking and caught up on things around here. Now I’m finishing my last week of the most busyworked class I’ve probably ever had. Hope to post more once this is over. Back to writing a paper, making a powerpoint for the paper, and then adding voice to the powerpoing =/
Once back I’m hoping to give http://projecteuler.net/ a bit of time every now and then. Could be a fun way to keep up on everything I’ve forgotten since college.
Also congrats to Moogle on the new job.

I’m currently learning the implementation/configuration details of a quite nice proprietary SSL VPN appliance. In training, a fellow student pointed me towards this for a fun project to play around with.

I obviously haven’t gotten to try the software out yet but I definitely immediately thought of Ohrtman and Mike as potential users for some reason.

If nothing else this article is one of the most humorous things I’ve read in awhile. Maybe not quite on the same level as the ridiculous TSA rules… but close.

Seriously, I think this is my favorite phrase to say since ‘lolwut’. There may be more on this post later, but even if there isn’t I think it is worth me mentioning.

So I haven’t been a developer in awhile but was looking at doing some coding for random dootdoot things with others that frequent here and irc.
In talking about this bobby pointed me in the direction of http://www.asp.net/ajax/ajaxcontroltoolkit/samples/

So, this weekend marked the end of the summer’s weddings that I must attend. Drinking and dancing were done but unfortunately Kwon’s birthday was missed because of it. Hopefully our July outing turns out to be as fun as what I’ve heard they had.
This is also the last week of the first summer section of grad classes, monday marks day number 1 of the second summer section. I can’t wait for it to be over in 6 weeks, summer classes are far more intense in the busywork required. It would be nice to actually have coursework that didn’t feel like busywork. I’ve heard many complaints that the classes stay more basic than someone with any related undergraduate or workforce experience would want.
Sorry I couldn’t make it Kwon =( we’ll make sharla buy a round of long islands or martinis because of it
