Well I am now here at the LCMS convension. One good thing that did happen was that my favorit talk radio show host was here, Todd Wilkins, and I did get to meet him in person, he does a readio show called Issues Etc (I usally listen late via the podcasts. I will post pictures of the convention when I get home, and I hope to see if I can get Pastor Wilkins to pose with me in a picture.
I know I have not posted much on it, but I am still biking alot, I bike to work every day. I have not done as much biking as of late as I would like to have, but I have a lot of other things on my plate, and I do want to dedicate a bit more time to other things.
Here is my attempted at playing the Spiritual Song Amazing Grace, still not sure it made it into the new Lutheran hymnal, it is a great song and all, but not a hymn. Click here to hear the recording of it, and some rambalings by me

Well I been messing around with this new Linux box I build this weekend and I think it seems to be working out well. I still need to update the OS from FC2 to FC7 I am working with the old hard drives so I have all my old data, the hard drives were not to bad, heck they were greate when I build the old system and they are still very good now, one is a 250Gb one and the other is a 100Gb one, so I should not feel any crunch on space for a long time to come still.
Today our church had it’s annual picnic, well I talked a friend of mine from church into biking up to it, it only took about 1 hour and fifteen minutes. At the place we had the picnic they also had a pool, so Joe and I ended up swimming for about 3 hours before riding back. My main problem is I never put sunscreen on, and now my shoulders are yelling at me now. But it was a good time. But now I have a major headache, don’t know if it from not drinking enough or from the sunburn. I did drink only 1.5 litters of water — not enough.
Now that my Linux box is back up and running I probably will be posting more often to my blog. So if after all these months you are still checking this blog it is now again alive.
Well I went to get a new CPU for my Linux box today, well I could not get one to fit my mother board so I had to get a new mother board, and new memory, but at lest I got my Linux box back up and running it feels nice to have my Linux box back up and running.
I got the photo section of my web site back up and running so you can see here
Well it has been 3 days, and I have not seen spam, I know that is going to be the lowest and I will get more spam later, but it is 0 down from about 100 a day.

I issued a sql command to the sql server that holds my blog, basicly said that if the comments section says allow, turn it to disallow, the timed ones should have all timed out, except the most resent ones, we shall see, if in a week I have over 100 spams again I will know that it did not work. But it should, since the spammers try to hit older posts, and I have all posts now set to disallow or allow comments only for 1 week after they are posted.
but it looks like Best buy does not sell them any more, well atlest that is what I was told when I said I wanted to buy one. So I guess my photo section will be down for a little bit longer.
Well here is another post. I have recorded some music that I played on my tin whistle click here to bleed your ears out
