Computer “Chronos” Bites the Dust
So long “Chronos”, it’s been one hell of a five year (going on it’s sixth) ride. All the abuse you took from me, being more or less on 24×7, overclocked from 3.2GHz to 4Ghz, watercooled, and on it’s 4th motherboard and second CPU. This computer has carried me through countless nights of Starcraft and Counter-Strike, [...]
Houston.
Things I like about Houston: Elevated driveways to help prevent local flooding Road labels and signs painted on the road itself EZ-TAG also integrates a real-time traffic monitoring system Every day is bright and sunny Things I don’t like about Houston: When it rains, it rains Elevated driveways are like small mountains to my car [...]
ERAU Nukes My E-Mail Account, Says “Too Bad”
4 years, over 100 grand, and endless repetition “you must use your e-mail account”, then after graduating and 6 months later, they delete it. I was too busy in the midst of relocating my life halfway across the country, never mind accepting a new job the education helped to provide, and now my account was [...]
Window Tint Done, Repercussions To Be Had

If you log into the Simply Everything Plus page on Sprint, you’re greeted with this message: Because of unprecedented demand, the Palm Pre is not yet available to Everything PlusSMReferral Program shoppers. Which, actually is just a polite way of saying [...]
TV Shows, yay
Pitchmen on tonight on Discovery, then Mythbusters. Maybe it’s the other way around, but it’s bad that i’m getting excited over a TV show.
Busy weekend
Did three car shows, 5gb of pictures, 600 photos total, 20 gallons of gas, and around 400 total miles traveled. Whew, slept in yesterday, and today I’m doing a lot of post processing on the photos and starting back up with regular updates on Over-Boost and GenesisDriven.
Weekend Romp in NJ
Lots of things accomplished this weekend – I was able to do more writing for both Over-Boost and GenesisDriven while also meeting a friend in Union City at Broken Motorsports while his car was getting serviced there. His GC Impreza was getting the rear coilover suspension installed and he was also putting in a set [...]
