1) Ground School is by far the most interesting educational experience I have encountered. There is, by far, a great deal of information, but the perceived applicability of this information is immediate. You aren't sitting there with a small voice saying when am I ever going to use this; You know you are going to use it and your life will depend on it
2) I Am going to be taking Piano Lessons. I know that sounds cheesy, but I figure I should learn how to play a musical instrument and the piano has a strange allure to me. No other instrument jumps out, except the piano. Just thought you'd like to know
3) I had some very positive feelings last night. I realized that my life has a) been pretty full and b) I actually have a pretty good resume for someone my age. I feel good about myself.
4) I do, however, feel bad for not retaining my foreign language studies better. I have challenged myself to take a language next year, whether it be Spanish or Chinese. While I do want to learn Japanese, that will be more academic than an actual pursuit [translation: more self teaching]
5) My house and car are a mess. With some additional down time I need to focus on getting that portion of my life in order.
6) My computer dies. [insert RANT of explitives here] It really pisses me off. I just bought a new hard drive to install and replace my dying hard drive, only to have it die the night I want to install the new one. WTF???
7) [Pilot Rant] What the fuck is the deal with "Niner"?? I completely understand the rest of the phonetic alphabet, where you replace letters with words, e.g. instead of saying "Y" you say "YANKEE" or instead of "C" you say "Charlie", but what the fuck is up with "Niner"?? The word "nine" doesn't sound like anything else, and you don't say the numbers one through 8 in a different way, but you do say nine as "niner"...I seariously think it was a disgruntled government employee's idea to implement this, just to fuck with all the pilot's in the world. Dammit, and yes this post has, ahem, niner comments in it... <--- Do you see how fucking stupid that is!!!
8) As if people don't get enough TV allready, they have developed a phased array flat satellite television antennae specifically designed for use in automobiles. Give me a break folks...How fucking desperate are you for TV? I work for a damn satellite TV company and I would never, ever think about putting a 4 foot square antennae on top of my car. Check it out: www.kvh.com/tracvision/a5/index.asp
- One interesting side note on this is the manufacturer is developing a high speed internet solution with this antennae.
