I’ve been riding a borrowed Yamaha TW 200 Enduro [link is of a 2004, this one is older but they look the same] a ton over the weekend. I need to go get a battery for it, because it didn’t want to kick-start this morning. Hopefully sometime in September I’ll have a brand new 2004 Honda cruiser to ride.

hahaha this rocks
gotta love it when you are asked to cough up $500 to hear people talk… about blogging…
this has gotta be the best quote of the year:
The medium is not the message. Imagine how tedious newspapers would be if every other story proclaimed “We use INK!!!” The writers don’t care, and the readers don’t care, how this message was delivered: but readers do care about quality.

Class M
I now have an instruction permit for a motorcycle! w00t! now, I just need a bike to take the test on sometime after 9/3 so I can have a full license. Maybe dad will get that harley from his uncle this weekend and I’ll at least have it to ride. If not, I guess I’ll wait till next spring after I buy a Honda VTX 1300 retro this winter.

1.21 GIGAWATTS
Actually, no… 3.0 gigahertz, OC’d from a P4 2.4c… 512 mb corsair DDR400 ram, Cheiftec Matrix case with side window, 5 led fans, Enermax FCA power supply… SWEEEEET new system. My racing sim FPS jumped from 40fps to 130fps. SWEEEEET. Just thought I’d share.
Maybe I’ll rework the wallpaper section this week. It’s been needing a facelift for a while. I also want to get a new site developed for the colo box to hopefully get a few users and some income.

If I were a video game character…
I am Pacman.
I am an aggressive sort of personality, out to get what I can, when I can. I prefer to avoid confrontation, but sometimes when it’s called for, I can be a powerful character. I tend to be afflicted with munchies constantly. What Video Game Character Are You?

riverstages 2003
this is definately going to be an annual event that i attend. riverstages 2003 rocked… live rocked hard, we were down in front against the barrier for them… really good show… the b52’s also were very good… jason mraz was really good, even though we only caught part of his set on friday… and everclear… one of the best sets i’ve ever seen from any concert… the pit was awesome… to bad the setup at riverfront part does not lend itself to kindly to crowd surfers… jamie got dropped on the concrete steps… he was ok, but we saw a few others that were not so lucky… we met some beautiful girls in nashville, i really envy the guys that live there, they have a nice pond to pick from…
overall i think everyone had a good trip, except kyle, who passed out friday from to much canadian mist… but, you have to learn somehow…
i think jamie really enjoyed his bachelor party… and the girls at hooters who gave him a nice fairwell to single life…
p.s. hi to lauren and mindi, i doubt you all will ever read this, but yea, i was one of the guys down there in the front with you… 😉

power outage
today royally sucked… the power went out at work at about 2pm cst, so, we sit around for a couple of hours… finally about 4:30 the decision was made that we could go home until the city got the power back on… well, here it is, and i’m just getting home from work (give or take a few minutes)… the power didn’t come back on till 10pm cst, so i had to go back in and finish up what was needed for tonights paper… tomorrow is going to suck… i needed to work LATE today to get caught up, but i’m not worried about it… i’m leaving at 3pm tomorrow no matter what… i have to get to nashville, my best friend’s bachelor party is tomorrow, and i’m throwing it… we’re going to nashville for a last night of fun with the close circle of friends from high school. they can deal with whatever extra special bullshit they sold to try and make the month at the last freaking minute theirselves…
on a more positive note, my macbatteries came in today, i now have two working 6100/66 dos compatible power macs, with monitors… total investment so far ~$30 for two adb mice and one adb keyboard and two main board batteries… the rest of the parts i’ve gotten from the stash at work… two asante ethernet adapters, a hdi45 adapter, power cables, local talk cables, and 16mb of ram… i think i’m going to order some more ram tho and max these machines out… i can get some 64mb 72pin fpm sticks from coast 2 coast memory for next to nothing… i might order a set of 64s and a set of 32s… i think i’m going to make one of these into a ppc linux box… haven’t decided on what distro yet…
