Got Back from the Ohio Linux Fest today
I am still downloading the pictures I took this weekend to my computer. I took over 2000 pictures. I have to go though them and see which ones are worth keeping, which ones that need to be touched up (adjustment of light) I will post them as soon as I can. I have some other[…]
Well I am at OLF now
I am now at the Ohio Linux Fest. I have started to take some pictures, they will be uploaded some time on Sunday night. And from the sound from my HT sounds like there is another ham here already. So I am going to see if I can find him/her.
Sunday at the Ohio Linux Fest in Columbus Ohio
I am going to be going to the Ohio Linux Fest in Columbus Ohio this weekend, which includes Sunday morning. I am hoping I can find some very important information (well to me) I would still like to make a church service this week, so if any one knows of a church in Columbus Ohio[…]
Finally some one realized it
I hate it when I go to a web site, and one of the stupid ads start to make noise, it is the most annoying thing on the web at this time. But today I was over at cnet, as I we reading my eye got distracted to one of those stupid ads, but this[…]
Mistake on my bike ride to work today
As the temperatures are going down I don’t think I want to wear shorts in the morning. So I put on my jeans, but that was a big mistake I did not know it really till the ride home, but since there was no room in the leg, the bike ride home was not comfortable,[…]

You never know when you find a good deal
Today I was looking in the Caliban book store on Craig St. I was looking though the religion section and I find the book “Martin Luther’s Basic Theological writings” for only $12. What a sweet deal.
Robert’s Rules of Order Hell

Organ Donation
I wish to pose a question. This question came from a response to this post titled “A simple ethics question” The person posed this statement “shouldn’t this be more strongly equated with organ donation from a dead adult without their concent (but obviously from their family) in order to save the lives of living people[…]
Because of Spam

The new Hockey season comming up
Well last year they changed the rules to hockey, and I really hate the new rules. Also the penguins might be getting profits from the slots when they come, and I don’t think I can really do business with a company (and make no mistake about it sport teams are companies) that profits from something[…]
I can not believe this
One of the episodes of South Park I got from the apple store is “Cartoon Wars Part 2” I can not believe that Comedy Central even blacked the image of mohammed on the for sell versions. They must really believe that the moslems are a major danger to them. I still say it is very[…]
Comcast is going to regret sell me the 8Mbits speed internet service
I just got 6 South Park episodes from the apple music store, about 200MB each. 1.2GB in one night. But they are some of the better shows (also some of the more controversial ones from this season also.) from South Park, I had the record on my DVR, but it might be nice to have[…]
