I was in a chat with 2 of my friends and we started to talk about what would happen if Bill Gates ran for the Presidency. Would you vote for him? What do you think he would do in office? What party do you think he would be. How about Steve Jobs, Linus?
Just for the fun of it, I got two of my friends into a debate over what they think if Bill Gates ran for Presidency, now for my readers what do you think? the debate between my friends was just so funny.
Well I been looking into things and came across this site of the constitution party
And here is what is getting my attention
Sanctity of Life
Religious Freedom
I am not so sure on this one Taxes I HATE taxes as much as the next person, but we can not just cut them, there are some programs that are not really in the constitution but many on all sides of the fence would say are needed, how would we fund them??? so I don’t think I would really agree with this one.
or this one Welfare I will be the first to admit there are major major major problems with the current welfare system, but there are some though no fault of their own can not work (physical problems of one sort or another) there should be some way for these people to be cared for, and since people are not as religious as they use to be, and there is a major problem in America of selfishness (unless you can posse how to fix that with out forcing religion on people) we will need a safety net, not one as big as the one we have not, but something.
But all in all: I think they might, just might, I think maybe they are closer to what I believe then the Republicans, I am going to really have to site down and think about this one. I now have a dilemma, and I now have less then a month to sort it all out.
I still know who I am going to vote for Persident, but for the rest? humm? Well maybe not, I am going to mail the pres candidate and see what he says, I should let him defend himself, well lets see what comes of it, I will probably post here the results one way or the other.
I am working on debugging the program I am working of for work. Well now, when I step over a call to a function that just calls into the Mysql lib, it get a unhandled exception, so deep in that VC++ (I have to use this compile for work) will not give me the stack so I can not even figure out where the problem is. I HATE mySQL, I HATE IT WITH THE PASSION!!!! Well I am going to go pass out for now, and try to do more on it at the office tomorrow. I been working on this debugging since this morning, and worked on it during and after dinner today. I normally love debugging, but I hate it when I can not get into the code that is causing the problem, and all VC++ is giving me is the disassembled code. This just raise a question in my mind. In the EULA from Microsoft for windows it says you may not disassemble their code, but when you work with VC++ and you are debugging and a crash happens (just not in this one) it might just give you the kernel code disassembled?? how is this compatible with their own EULA? Oh well questions for another day.
Right now I am wanting for some code to run, it is going slowly because I have set a break point on a variable that seems be changing with out reason. So it going to take some time, I figured I hit the web where I saw the following on some one’s sig
Vegetarians eat vegetables, Humanitarians scare me
I just found it funny and though I would post it here
I sounds of the empty pipes in the apartment building starting to get steam in them is very loud at times. It sounds like some one is hitting the pipes with a hammer. Well if the temp in the area keeps going down, the noise should be over in a few days, but if the temp goes back up the noise might go way for a little bit but return when the temperature starts to dip again.
The hard drive in the gateway computer is still working on formatting. I doubt I am going to even get 1 kilobit out of the drive, but I am going to let this exercise in futility continue because at this point I am just curious as to what the drive usable size is going to be. Right now it is at 1091504/6801228 still has over 5 million blocks to go. Right now I am finding it funny.
I am one of the few fortunate people that get to live near my church. Today it paid off. I kind of forgot about Saturday night vespers at church, until I heard the church bell ringing. I am only a five minute walk away from church, so I was able to get there fast.
The hard drive on the gateway is really bad, it is still at it, still trying to do the first scan for bad blocks on the first file system. I don’t think there will be any usable space on the drive when it finishes.
I have had a to-do on my list for more then 3 months, and I finally got around to knocking it off my list. What is it you might ask, well it is that I needed to update the The Pittsburgh Area Lutheran Schools web site with the contact information of the different Lutheran Schools around the area. And I finally got around to getting the information up on to their site.
I started the bad block scan last night around 1 am (EST) and it is still working on it, on the first partition that not that big less then 5Gb, I don’t think there will be much usable space on it after all the bad blocks are marked, maybe I have to get a new hard drive for it later. But right now that is not a major issue, I will do it in the comming months, and I continue to see what happens with this hard drive, but I don’t think I am going to be able to use it.
I figure just a bit more of php out so now instead of having the old hack of doing an instant redirect when some one comes to my page to the blog, I just included it via php and there is no ugly redirection going on. This should make things just that much nicer for my readers. Also for the browsers that don’t support the redirection (very few exist now but there are still those that do exist like that) It should be nicer for them to read. I still have to learn more php and learn css so I can set the color. I believe that bblog uses css for all the color and formatting of the pages, when I figure that out I will be experimenting with the color of the site. And possibly the layout of the site.
It adds no functionality to the site; I just think it look cool on the site. I like the way it looked on other sites, so I have added one here. Next I would like to change the colors of the site. So in the next few weeks expect the colors of the site to change.
I have been using
Misc (no other place to put this stuff)
more then I should, so I think I need more sections for my blog, I am open to suggestions, just leave a suggestion and if I like it, and find that it might be usefull, I will use it.
I did not realize there was such a massive market in blog pinging. but today I found this site, http://pingomatic.com/blog/ and they promise to ping all the blog pinging sites. Ok that seams like a bit much, but hay who am I to judge, and hay since I had the info and my blog software does ping I figure hay why not, so I guess I will be pinging allot of blog directories now. I guess maybe I should say hi to any one that might stumble upon this site from there, hay if you just found this site via one of those ping sites, drop me a line in the comments and say hi and tell me what site it was, I am partly curious, I would also love to see if I could map out where people are comming from to my site.
