It's been swell folks, but I'll be posting on jtbates from now on. I've added everyone I could think of to my friends list on my new account but if I forgot anyone just post a comment and I'll add you. You can click here to add me. See you around.

I finally uploaded some pictures from my camera. ( Here's a picture of PNC Park I took during Clippership. )

I've decided I'm going to move my LJ account to jtbates. Mahirishi Mahesh is a badass but it just really isn't amusing anymore as my username. I'll try to move over my friends list tomorrow.

Hurrah! My laptop finally arrived. I felt so wierd without a computer. It's sad really. Anyways I'm really happy. The wireless is awesome, it's a dream to go from dialup to this. Well, enough about that.
