  • 1 – Click Ordering, The Evolution

    I was pleasantly surprised the other day at Amazon.com by 1 – Click ordering. I was buying some MP3s (I know.. I could have just downloaded them for free.. but I feel better about myself and I’m not hurting for cash) and I just clicked buy. All of the sudden, the transaction was over and…

  • Christmas and New Years

    It’s taken me a while to get around to posting, but the holidays around here were a pretty good time. There was some celebrating, and a lot of relaxing. Mostly relaxing. But I do have pictures of the celebrating part. Let me give you some of the high lights. Wes had a party over at…

  • CCIE Attempt #1 – FAIL

    I got my CCIE Voice Lab score report this morning. I failed. Time to sign up for the test again and give it another try. I would say that I was close.. but I don’t know that for sure. In fact I even got 0% in some of the sections. Apparently I need to try…

  • CCIE Attempt #1

    We’ll call this post CCIE attempt number 1. I’ve completed my first attempt at the CCIE. I’m not sure how high in number these posts will get. I sat down, read through the test.. and then said WTF on about 4 or 5 of the questions. Most everything was doable… but some of it was…

  • Error messages and serviceabilty

    Justin had some interesting comments on serviceability and error messages: http://tinfoilsoldier.com/blog/2007/11/02/net-helpmsg/ I run into this crap CONSTANTLY day after day trying to figure out what a certain error message means. Turns out it all depends on who programmed the lines of code spitting out your specific error. Suck! We need to make this better from…

    I’m a pretty big geek as I’m sure everyone knows by now. So here’s the coolest thing I’ve done lately:

  • CCIE Study

    So I brought home some books and have some material here for CCIE studying. I think it’s finally time I started since I posted about it a LONG LONG time ago. So hopefully I’ll stick to studying for the next few months and you guys won’t be seeing too much of me. If you do…

  • This Is Sparta!

    This entry is dedicated to Sparta and all of the awesome images the Internet has collectively come up with since 300 came out. Enjoy.

  • Labor Day Weekend 07

    Labor day weekend has been a glorious time so far. It started out with motorcycles, moved on to drinking, and finished up with a slip and slide party. I’m using today as a recovery day. I hurt everywhere from that damn slip and slide. Apparently the ground is hard as hell at Kaufman’s house. Pretty…

  • Done With Dune

    I just finished the 6th book in Frank Herbert’s Dune series. A thought came to me. “I am the destroyer of words.” When I woke up this morning at 11:30 (I was up until 3 reading) I started reading another book. I want to find some kind of application like maybe an Amazon list that…
