• New Job and Thanksgiving

    Things have been busy with work. I spent some time in Atlanta and some time in Maryland. After that I’ve just been reviewing documents, making recommendations, and being involved in conference calls. Soon this will translate into actual software configuration and upgrade work after the conference calls are over. I took a trip to Florida…

  • Coffee and blog posts

    I’ve taken to making myself breakfast and coffee on the weekends. Turning into an adult is actually pretty awesome (even if it took me a LONG time to start the process). When I was a kid everyone was like “you’ll have to work so much” and “you’ll have bills to pay!” Now that I’m actually…

  • Raleigh Apartment and Esther’s House Warming

    It’s been a month since my last update. That sounds about right to me. The first big change is that I moved to downtown Raleigh. I’m in an apartment building called “Hue,” which is pretty nice. The view is awesome. My Jeep and the FZ6 are living at Pete’s house, along with power tools and…

  • Snow Boarding and Mardi Gras Motorcycling

    I’ve been extremely busy being eXtreme lately. Here are some pictures of a snow board trip I took to Tahoe with Brendan, Kurt, Lauren, and Marcy. I also rode 1000 miles from Raleigh, NC to New Orleans, LA and back. I tried to get my Iron Butt certification (1000 documented miles in < 24 hours)…

  • Camera Updates: October – January

    I got back from my Jeeping and Biltmore escapades with Heather and emptied out my camera. Here’s the result. Back in October I went to Matt and Candra’s wedding. I wore a kippah (yarmulka) and did a reading. I bumbled a bit of the reading, but didn’t do so bad for never having seen the…

  • Winter Jeeping

    As usual it’s been forever since I’ve updated my site. I went to see all of those shows in the previous post and they were awesome. Especially Menomena and The Thermals. Say Anything was pretty sweet too. I finished a simple Android app that can be used at work. I don’t use it. I’m trying…

  • First Android App – Almost Finished

    Tonight I started and almost finished the framework for my first Android app. 1. Edit my manifest to give me permissions to receive and read SMS. 2. Edit my manifest to point to a receiver class for SMS events. 3. Create a main class to stop and start the background Reader service. 4. I create…

  • Awesome Concerts: Who’s with me?

    I’m pretty frickin excited about some upcoming shows. I haven’t yet bought tickets because I think I’m the only one that expresses any excitement. I’d prefer to drag someone along with me so here is my sell: Menomena – Thursday, October 7th @ 8PM @ Cat’s Cradle. Menomena is phenomenal. They thrive on an interesting…

  • Buffalo Visit – Tiffany and Don’s Wedding and other great friends.

    This past weekend I went up to Buffalo for Don and Tiffany’s wedding. You can find some great pictures of the wedding here: I drove the Z up on Thursday to stop by and have dinner with my dad, and to go see Jaime. That’s an interesting story because I “met” her at my HS…

  • Home PC – diagnosed at least

    Thanks to a very helpful Devon Kerr I now know what parts of my PC were causing my prior trouble. I was running a Core 2 Duo 3.0GHz LGA 775 in an Asus Striker Extreme mobo with 4GB of DDR2 800 RAM. I played around with every possible video card and ram combination (since I…
