So this is my old department's logo. It is going to be posted on the door to my office, but first I want to put a motto on the bottom of it. Here are some of the one's I came up with, what do you think? Feel free to comment and suggest other mottos as well.

Ad augusta per angusta - To high places by narrow roads
Amat victoria curam - Victory favors those who take pains
Animis opibusque parati - Prepared in minds and resources (ready for anything)
Aut viam inveniam aut faciam - I will either find a way or make one
vina Sancta! - Holy cow!
Braccae tuae aperiuntur - Your fly is open
Caesar si viveret, ad remum dareris - If Caesar were alive, you'd be chained to an oar
Credo elvem etiam vivere - I believe Elvis lives
Caro putridas es! - You're dead meat
Cursum perficio - My journey is over, or I finish my journey
Duc, sequere, aut de via decede - Lead, follow, or get out of the way
Dulce bellum inexpertis - War is sweet for those who haven't experienced it. (Pindaros)
Dum spiramus tuebimur - While we breathe, we shall defend
Dura lex, sed lex - The law is harsh, but it is the law
Estne volumen in toga, an solum tibi libet me videre? - Is that a scroll in your toga, or are you just happy to see me?
primordium potissimus - the first, the best
Virtute et armis - By courage and by arms
Vescere bracis meis - Eat my shorts
Non illigitamus carborundum - "don't let the bastards grind you down"

Bat The Penguine!!!

Well,
Don't know what to say.
My division went the way of the Dodo this morning and I am one of the few left to sweep up the pieces and facilitate the transition of personnel.
I was kicked out of my office,
My favorite LPO is gone,
The world is a very different place right now than it was when I woke up this morning and it's going to take a bit of getting used to.

Could You Pass 8th Grade Science?

OK, OK, You know me too well, I was just happy to pass.

And now for my movie...
The Spinney Gig.

The Spinney Gig.

It is my firm belief that once every six months or so you should take your computer apart down to it's nubbins, walk away for a day and then return and put it all back together again, just to remind it who's really in charge.

I have owned my current computer, a desknote a929, for a little over two years now and have never done this to it. A chief told me yesterday that desknotes had removable video card, and even though I knew it had an integrated one, since he used to sell them I took his word for it and began to plan my assault. Feeling the sudden wild urge to tinker with stuff at about 0143 last night I did just that. I took it apart then fell asleep, then got up and went to work then came home and finished dismantling it then saw the Chief was in error and put it back together.

You have no idea how many screws there are involved in taking apart a desktop replacement to it's chassis. I stopped short of unseating the motherboard, but did just about everything else. To be honest, after it was all back together I was kinda holding my breath during the bootup process expecting to hear a pop, or see a puff of smoke or even worse, have nothing at all happen. Instead it worked like a champ. Guess I showed it who's boss.

I wanted to take pictures, but my camera ate all the batteries up while I was shooting video of this windup toy I got for Christmas. (shutup, it's a fun toy and my friends all like it too.)

Anyway... So there it is, a real post.

It's been a long time since I posted, but to tell you the truth I've kinda run out of things to say.

I'm listening to this new CD Miles to Miles, it's a tribute to Miles Davis by this guy Jason Miles and it's ok I guess, but it's not really anything special. In fact, I think I'm going to delete the first few tracks from my MP3 player cause they give me a headache.
