| Busy enough for a Summer cool down |
|
 Yeah, I have been extremely active/busy since last I posted and so I've decided that it is easiest for me to post a short list of things that have happened these passed few months. Although I'm sure there is yet more to add to the list that I can't immediately recall...
1. Bought a 802.11g wireless prism54 chipset along with a 1 watt amplifier in order steal all my neighbors' wireless bandwidth with, muhahaha. It has native Linux drivers and one of the few cards that can be used to hack WEP encryption. My build-it-yourself kit was composed of a Xterasys XG-600 miniPCI Wireless LAN Card (for NoteBook PC) from Coolerexpress.com at $57.26, a PCI to miniPCI adapter from ITuner Networks Corp. at $25.91, and a 1 Watt 802.11g Amplifier from Hyperlink Technologies at $200.80
2. Implemented a _ton_ of Linux services. I can now honestly say I am a true Linux expert. My most favorite mammoth accomplishment so far is the Microsoft Active Directory mimicry I compiled by utilizing Linux implementations of DCHP/DNS/LDAP/SASL/Kerberos and Samba. The synchronized implementations are so technically cool it would take too long to describe why in layman terms. Not only that but it will save my company so much money and doesn't ever need a reboot.
3. Figured out that Verizon's voice minutes and data minutes are billed the same. I bought a USB cable for my cell phone... a pleasant surprise, feels like about half cable modem speeds and is free after 9:00pm. My phone even has Linux drivers.
4. Made some sweet money in my Roth IRA with Natural Gas since I first started on April 14th, click the chart on this baby. Oh and the 401K is doing nicely too. Of course now that I say that... *crosses fingers*
5. Went to HFStival. Hell yes, it was awesome. I saw Garbage and the Foo Fighters live to name a few. It's sweetness how the best bands are actually even better live. The entirety of the day literally rocked. This event is a teen-twentysomething's paradise. Pretty girls were everywhere... the ones I didn't notice since I was with Ashley ;-) Since we had to stay on stadium grounds the food throughout the day alone cost more than admission. But who cares, the whole place was one ginormous party. Yeah sure beer, weed, and all that you'd expect (who cares) but the fun vibe was all-encompassing. Ashley and I went crowd surfing into the mosh pit, kick ass :-)
6. Bought a new 2005 Honda Civic Hybrid, light blue, with a manual transmission. I custom installed myself a new CD-player/receiver unit with an AUX input for my MP3 player. BTW, Crutchfield is great for that kind of thing.
7. Went with Ashley as my date to her high school prom. Tux, limo, the whole shebang. I had a spectacular time all because I was with her. She was amazingly beautiful that night. Also, this was the first and only prom I've been to.
Ashley left me last Wednesday to go off to college in Florida since she's starting on a summer semester... if I had mentioned that in an itemized list it would have severely downplayed how much this deeply affects me. There is simply no way to describe the ten months of heaven on earth I have experienced with her. I'm am so incredibly happy for her graduating high school and going on to attend her first choice university. I miss her very much and I have felt awkward and empty these passed few days...
Anyway, here are some links that are guaranteed to give you a laugh:
