Running silent on Facebook
Seems like any time I say anything on Facebook lately I get it thrown back in my face. Fine. Fuck it. I'm done commenting on anything.
To be honest, if it weren’t for a few old friends that I follow on Facebook and a couple of people I’ve met through it that I really care about, I would just terminate my account now. But I want to keep in touch ( Read more... ) -
Scientific American Book Club
Friends:
Do not get involved with the Scientific American Book Club. They are a royal pain in the ass to deal with. Save yourself the headache and go to your local bookstore (it's cheaper, anyway).

Chapter 6; bowling last night; thoughts about medicines
This will be a short post as my hour timer has gone off, meaning I need to get away from the computer and stretch.
I read Chapter 6 in Security+ yesterday afternoon (all about securing the network). I got 17 out of 20 on the review questions, and a couple of the ones I got wrong I’m not entirely sure I actually got wrong. I’ve marked the chapter ( Read more... ) -
Back on track
I didn’t turn the computer on last night, so I didn’t update this. Yesterday, I read chapter 5 in Security+ and did the review questions at the end of the chapter. I scored 19 out of 20 (and the one I missed was one of those where I got it down to two possible choices and just picked the wrong one). So, I feel better than I did after finishing ( Read more... ) -
Chapter 4 Done
I have started a new blog on the Website I’m starting up (http://blog.infinityltd.net). I haven’t yet decided what I’m going to do with my LiveJournal blog (especially considering I just re-upped my membership recently). I think what I will do is post in both places until I decide whether to keep this going or not (I may keep it just so I can ( Read more... ) -

Somebody should take Limbaugh off the air.

An email to my representative
I read in an article on Time Magazine's Website that you have introduced a resolution asking that the House "express support for the use of Christmas symbols and traditions and frown on any attempt to ban references to the holiday ( Read more... ) -
Do it again
Some of you may recall that last year, with the anniversary of the passing of my friend Karen and the passing that July of Dr. Randy Pausch, I decided to do a "Bowl-A-Thon" for cancer in general during October, since it was (and still is) Breast Cancer Awareness Month and since the USBC waits until February to do any fund-raising for breast cancer ( Read more... ) -
NaNoWriMo 2009
Last week, I had kind of decided that I wasn't going to participate in NaNoWriMo this year because I didn't think I could get all my researching and outlining done before November 1 for "Ghost Writer." Also, I was concerned with whether I'd have time to do it, since school starts October 12. Last night, however, I had an idea for a pure plot ( Read more... ) -

Not sure if anybody cares, but just in case: Thanks to a lightning storm, we have no Internets, phone or cable. Thanks to stellar customer service from Time Warner, this situation will not be corrected until Wednesday (unless a cancellation comes up). So no, I'm not (necessarily) ignoring you.
