I have had a lot of my friends say that I need to get a new TV since the quality of the picture on my TV was not all that great, there was always some snow on the picture no mater what the source of the signal was. And today I picked up a converter[…]
As I said before, I found 6 fish fries in my tank back on May 26, I removed them to their own tank. Later I talked about the 5 zebra danios I had and I mentioned how I believed I must have lost one of the babies. Well this morning I found that I was[…]
Today I took a quick 30 minute bike ride today after work (I did not have much time today for fun and games since I had other responsibilities so I just did a quick run around Oakland) Well as I was going down one of the roads, I had some one yell at me, to[…]
Today I went to the pet store to pick up some more baby fish food for my baby zebra danios. While I was there I saw this beautiful betta. It has a white body with a red head and fins; I know that the colors of it will change over time as it becomes more[…]
I have not had a chance to get a bike ride in since Last Monday, due to a variety of reasons. But I got a 2 hour bike ride in. It was great to finally get back on the bike. Unfortunately I could not do more then that since I did not get much sleep[…]
My baby fish have grown tremendously. I think I can ID them now. They are starting too look like zebra danios. I had the thought that they might be about 3 days ago, but was not sure, but they now not only developing the body of one, but the color pattern of them, and fin[…]
Sorry about not updating the blog last week, I was busy with other things that take higher priorities. So I had more important things to do.
I remember hearing a lot about the “paperless office” back in the 90’s, and today I don’t here much about it anymore. I think people have realized that computers have not cut down the number of pages used, but rather increased the number of pages consumed. I know for myself when I do my programming[…]
I want to wish all here a happy Memorial Day. I bike from Shadyside to Bridgeville; it was a great ride and took me 2 hours. It was a great ride; I did have to get off my bike in Dormant because I ran into a Memorial Day parade. There was a bit of rain,[…]
I took a few pictures of my Betta sporting his new color so take a look, his fins are looking very good, and healthy.
My betta colors seam to change again since I put him in the new 10 gallon tank, his fins have started to turn from red to a bright blue. Also all the plants I have put in the tank with him are doing fine, One of the Plants, in my other 20 gallon tank, leafs[…]

I heard on the news that this year we might have a have a heaver hurricane season in the US. It even hit us up here in Pittsburgh, where we got the rain from 2 of the storms and one of them caused flooding downtown. I hope that Pittsburgh does not get hit with flooding[…]
I love this DVR. I have setup it to record the shows I like, I don’t even have to tell it the stations, it will find them and the time, and will record them automatically. I now have a bunch of shows to watch right now.
I have disabled the comments in my video section, do to spammers. I got spam flooded there, so I have made it so that only registered users can post there (not like any one really will register to post there) and the registration requires the typing in of a number that is show in a[…]
Back on September 5th my ham club The Carroll County Amateur Radio Club offered a Soddering class, so I took it. And since I have been using my 3D prints a lot this year, I think it only natural that I should try my hand at doing the maker hobbie. And while I am doing[…]
To work on getting better in shape, along with getting back on the bike, I went and rejoined the gym I use to be a member of. Went down for the first welcome session that they give “new members” and instead of driving down, I used it as an excuse to ride my bike and[…]
I had a great time this last 4th of July. First I went out and tried to activate a pota, while I failed at it because I made only 4 contacts, and when it got to 100 degrees it was to hot for me to continue, and I had been at it for 2 hours[…]
Well today sony annouced that starting Jan of 2028 that they will end physical media for the playstation. My response is, well I don’t need to buy new games after Jan 2028. And given the rumors about the potental price tag of the PS6, it will save me a lot of money, as I will[…]
I have for over a decade missed riding my bike, this summer is the summer I am going to get back on the bike. I walked my bike down to the corner bike shop to get it tuned up, I really needs it as the last time I used it was back in 2014. I[…]
I been wanting to get a amature radio license plate for my car for a while now. Today after my annual eye exam I went down to the DMV and apply to get them, and have been told in about 4 to 5 weeks I should get them in the mail. It will be nice[…]
Last weekend I was feeling board so I decided to go along with my ham radio license, I would also buy a GMRS license. I got the equipment and set it up, I have one in the car, and one at my radio table here at home. I have a Btech in the car, I[…]
I got my General license in October, and a FT-710 back in December. I have been struggling on getting the setting right on the radio to so I could get a contact on HF. I have it hooked up to a LDG Z-100A tuner, and the Antanna is a Diamond HFV-5 pentaband antanna. But the[…]
As noted before when I first got my 3D printer I thought it would be used for some fun things but not as much use as I am using it for, it seems about 3 to 4 times a week I find another thing I can print with it to make things nicer in my[…]
Recently amazon decided to force an update on the Echo Auto, to the stupid Alexa+ I did not want it, months ago when they first tried it you could exit it. But last month they decided that they were going to force it and not let you exit or disable it. I refuse to use[…]
