Vague Android 2.2 “Froyo” Review
Aug 19th
This morning, while getting ready for work, I received a notification on my phone that there was a system update! I almost blew my wad! Yes; that’s a bit graphic, but for some odd reason I’m a BIG fan of system updates. Having the latest and greatest that’s been tested and tweaked to work on my device does something to me (internally). Maybe that’s another reason why I’m such a fan of Linux.
I was presented with three buttons (install, not install, and more info…). One would think that I’d read the “more info…” just to see what’s actually being installed. I blew right by that idea and clicked “install”. After clicking the button I did think, “Darn it, I really should have read what the update was… oh well.”
A Longing for Hackery
Aug 18th
Last night I watched Parasite Dolls on Netflix. Wow; what a bad Anime. I gave it two stars, but during the scenes when the hacker was working on his computer I felt a deep loss in my heart. It’s been about 2, maybe 3 months since I last logged into my Fedora partition. I fear that I may miss out on Fedora 13 by time I get it working. It’s a very long story to tell, but one of these days I’m going to take some time out of my busy schedule and fix my computer.
In the meantime if anyone has a motherboard that’s similar to a BioStar TA690G AM2 5.x – contact me. I think I broke mine. :’(
My First D&D Encounter
Jul 13th
Wow! I am a changed man forever! It’s a bit of an overstatement, but that’s generally how I feel about this fantasy table-top game. I’ve tasted the sweet nectar of Dungeons & Dragons and I don’t think I’ll ever be the same. A couple weekends ago I met up with some D&D players in Marietta, GA and played for about four hours. Within those four hours, to my surprise, all the D&D stereotypes were confirmed. It was an epic experience for me and I certainly look forward to more encounters as I level up in real life.
Be warned that I am going to make fun of EVERYTHING! It’s all in good fun, though. I had a great time and I have enlisted with my new Band of Brothers- my Campaign Desperadoes- into the mysterious world of D&D players.
Whatcha’ Say!?
