It's true. You can really and truly get a Christian version of Linux.
And you have a choice between Ubuntu Christian Edition (UCE) or Ichthux which has a far cooler name.
The Christian editions feature bundled Bible & miscellaneous scripture tools and software, and has adult-content filtering enabled. Maybe it also filters out swear words? I don't know. But I bet it scans your email for vicious gossip-spreading and the Lord's name used in a disrespectful manner.
In other news, March is already a weird month and I'm only one day into it. It has been pouring rain and storming all afternoon. This general gloom was preceeded this morning with about an inch of snow. Michigan is known for its strange weather, but this is almost too much to take.
My brother has been noticably depressed at the notion I am likely to move out in short order. This makes me feel both loved and heartbroken at once. He and I had a surprising go. A very good one. And I wouldn't trade it for having lived anywhere else. Mike has taught me a lot and we've regained a connection we lost from our youth. No world travels or apartment in a crowded city could ever replace that.
Hoping to have some good news to report come next week. If so, I will be painting the town all shades of crimson with various compatriots. I'm looking forward to it, either way. Because even if it's bad news, I've got other journeys and new paths lined up. Holler.
I am looking forward to a couple outdoor adventures I've got in the works for the coming months. And they actually look and sounds probable and affordable. They include a romp in Kentucky, backpacking an island up north (either Isle Royale or North Manitou), and white water rafting trip when they let out the Gauley in September that features a "Pirate Party" themed weekend. All of this is stellar news. I finally have something adventurous to plan for and day dream about.
Hm. This was a relatively useless post except for the OS bit. I think I just felt like airing out some of those thoughts -- test them out. Thanks for reading.
