Well do to a friend over at Slashdot I ended up at a site called deviantART, I signed up for an account, and well I have submitted 2 photos of mine. You will not see them on this site, since my gallery is for memory pictures, and these pictures were taken for arts sake. I am going to check back on the morrow to see if any one says anything, and if so do the rip me to shreds, do they give suggestions, or if the pictures are well received.

Well I found the problem and solved it, BUT I had already started on a new update to the code, so I can eather undo all of the changes or forge ahead and finish it tonight, I am removing alot of code that I did, and making calls to existing code, so it should be stable, and need a bit less debugging, and it crashes the system, that means there was a real problem with the old code that would needed to be fixed at some date, better now then later.

I just saw this post http://glittersniffer.deviantart.com/journal/3023666/?offset=0 on another blog, I got there though a friend’s blog. And all I can say is what kind of perverted SOB would do such a thing, this young lady is lucky to be alive. But this just proves that man is just an evil creature, and some are with out hope of ever being remotely good.

Well there is another demo this week, and there is one minor bug in the code, not major, and it is hiden well so it will take some time to find, it is not fatal, but it makes things a bit odd at times. So for the night it is another all nighter for me, but I think I know where to look, and I will find it, even if it kills me.

Even though I don’t subscribe to the Roman theology of Purgatory this was still funny
The Dante’s Inferno Test has sent you to Purgatory!
Here is how you matched up against all the levels:

Level Score
Purgatory (Repenting Believers) Very High
Level 1 – Limbo (Virtuous Non-Believers) High
Level 2 (Lustful) Very Low
Level 3 (Gluttonous) Very Low
Level 4 (Prodigal and Avaricious) Very Low
Level 5 (Wrathful and Gloomy) Low
Level 6 – The City of Dis (Heretics) Very Low
Level 7 (Violent) Low
Level 8- the Malebolge (Fraudulent, Malicious, Panderers) Low
Level 9 – Cocytus (Treacherous) Very Low

Take the Dante’s Inferno Test

Being lutheran, I belive any one that would get “Purgatory” will go straight to heaven, this assumes this is an accurate test. But some times these tests can be fun to take, just for the fun of it.

Customer service

We as customers are very Johnny on the spot when it comes to complaining about bad customer service, but I wonder how many of us are willing to take the time out of our days to make a comment about good service? Tonight I decided to do just that, I was at bust buy to get some more memory for my Mac, and more hard disk for it, I got a 120Gb external fire wire drive. It is good and fast, I just wish that I could read from it and write to the digital camera at the same time, oh well.

The problem with living life is that it is a dirty endeavor.

A bit cryptic but true, today I just did 4 loads of laundry and 4 loads of dishes no I was not weeks behind, I just make a lot of dishes during the days, I was maybe 1 day behind. The problem is that I am now cooking dinner that is making at lest 4 separate dishes to be washed, I may not be a great cook but when I cook I use a lot of dishes, and I do like to cook a bit. And with the clothing, I admit I was behind, the problem is I got to many now. I have 22 shirts, that is just way to many, so it gets easy to get 3 weeks behind. I just have to keep up with the laundry. And later I am going to have some friends over, and we are going to have dissert, I did pick up some pre-made cheese cake, but I am thinking of making some apple cake, I picked up some mix for this in Findlay, and I am just dieing to make it. The mix smells great thought the packaging, so I just know in my hands it is going to be “to die for”

Free Time

Where does the free time go? I dont seem to have the free time I thought I would have more free time, I have tried to create more free time by going into work early in the day, but that time gets taken up faster then I could create it. Oh well, I am living more life in one day then most people do in a whole week. For tonight I plan on hitting the hay at around 10 so I can get up at 6 so I can get some biking in before my friend gets into town at 1pm. And next weekend I am going to get to do a lot of biking, my good friend the wards have asked me to give them and their friends a biking tour of Pittsburgh from a bikers eye view. That is going to be fun, but I will be limited to only 3 hours. Then the weekend after that I will probably be going to the Pittsburgh Reinsurance Festival with my family. Now that leaves the last weekend of the month unallocated for now. But since my sister will still be in town I should spend some time with them before they head on off out of town, that now puts me to the first week in September, and maybe I will take that weekend off to go up to Findlay OH to visit with Trish, then the weekend after that I will probably just call off of life, and do nothing but biking or something.

Other projects I would love to do, is to work with my pastor to put together a video tour of First Trinity.

Well it turns out that my sister is in town earlier then I though she would be. So this is going to be an interesting weekend, I have a guest over this weekend, I am looking forward to seeing him since he will not be in town again for almost 5 months, and he might not be able to get online much for the same amount of time. The good news for me is that my sister (and her husband) will be in town all of the month so I will be able to catch up with them allot this month, I have taken the 18th to the 24th of, the 20th though I will be at another friends wedding. This month is turning out to be packed for me. And i was hopping to get out to Findlay again this month, well maybe the last weekend of the month, or maybe the first weekend of October.

Well with my sister, and parents (who by the way live in the same town that I do so I get to see them allot) I hope to get them to go to the Renaissance Festival, that is always fun. I probably will take my cameras and have allot of pics of it. You can check it out at http://www.pgh-renfest.com/

So I took a trip out to Findlay OH over the weekend to meet up with Trish. She is a friend of mine that I meet over at Lutherans On-Line I really like her a lot. Findlay is a nice place, very quite. She and I basically hung out for the weekend, I would love to go out and visit her again. She showed me around the place, it is nice. Next time I go out there, I hope to get a chance to bike around. It is a beautiful place. I did enjoy hanging out with Trish, she is very nice, I enjoyed talking with her and being with her. We went to a few nice restaurants, and the like.

I am wondering if I should put a BB up here for my friends. I would love to but I don’t think there would be that much usage for it. If I am wrong I would love to hear about it, you can mail me or leave a comment here. And if so, what type of subjects would you like to see on it? I guess this is kind of like a poll here.

Hotels and Travel

Comments: Comments Off on Hotels and Travel

OK so I get up to the hotel, and they can not find my reservation!! So I give the guy at the check in place (mind you they do not have a check in desk, but a drive up window) The conformation number with that he is able to find the reservation. Apparently the computer moved it to Sunday because another Michael O’Connor is in the hotel will sunday, and the computer is programmed for it to do extensions of a stay though makeing reservation, and some kind of error checking, well this time it bombed because Michael O’Connor is a very common name. The computer should be programmed to check addresses too, because when the front gate called a few minutes later he asked if I know the other guy and said he was from Cincinnati. But it does not matter much I did get my room. Got in and took a nice hot shower to cleans off the 5 hour drive.

You get a good idea of the priorities in the US when you travel, first on the Ohio Turnpike, every service station had a StarBucks. OK can you say addiction? Second when I get into the room what is the most prominate thing in the room, the TV, it is just big, I don’t see the point of it, I probably will not use it at all, don’t watch much TV.

And it never fails to happen you travel and you forget to take at lest 1 thing, but for me it is not all that critical, it is just the cradle for my palm pilot, so I just have to be sparing in using it (if I even use it) Also I forgot my cell phones power cable, but well I have a cable for the car, I can charge it when I am in the car, I probably will not be using it much since my primary number can not get a signal, there does not seam to be any T-mobile single here, and they don’t seam to have any agreements with any of the people here, so I am using my back up (expensive) AT&T sim card in the cell phone. I get a little signal. I probably will pick up a prepaid calling card, I have not had one of those in eons, but that why I can make the calls that I might want/need to make.
