Well, I have some good news first things first. I made another Blog. This one is a multiple person technology related. Please visit the site at The Techs This is going to be a blog that features a lot of news items. I figured I would have a few people post so we get a wide array of posts since one person can be biased. As the description says, less Apple related news then the leading competitor!
I have to say that today was a good day for gaming. I was playing Unreal Tournament 3 on the PlayStation 3 for a little bit today and I did really good. I was getting pretty consistent results for the 4 rounds I played. The first 2 were around 58 kills and had 4 deaths each time. Then the third one, which was the best, was 62 kills to 2 deaths. Now that is what I call skill. Sure, I play on the easiest bot level but that makes it fun. The last round I slacked a bit and didn't look at the results.
I have been playing some more Disgaea too. I have been trying to level up my people more so I can do better. I have been leveling on the one level that has a really good geo symbol pattern that gives me a few levels per play through. I also have been checking for higher attack weapons. Most important is I am raising the health of them up.
A few days ago, I noticed 2 keys on my keyboard were broken. The caps wouldn't stay on the scissor lifts right since the clips broke on one side. Well, I decided to try the key caps from my old KB100 Clie keyboard. The key caps were the right size but didn't fit on the Acer lifts. So I took the ones off the keyboard and now I have the keys back. I have to say that it looks kind of funny with 2 white keys on a black keyboard.
I got Flash to work! I installed the x86 version of FireFox 3 Beta 3 on the Acer and now I have FLASH!This means that I can finally use Youtube and watch all the things that are on Digg! The one thing that is upsetting me is that I can't use Adblock Plus on Beta 3.
Supper was fried chicken sandwiches. My dads chicken is just breaded with seasoned bread crumbs. It is very good like that on a bun with some salt and mayonnaise. We has potato chips instead of French fries today. We got snow too. There should be 3 to 5 inches by morning.

I have some news. You may have seen that the server is officially down. Yes, it is a sad day for me. There is one good thing though I guess. The server took up a lot of room on me. It is so much quiet without it too. I will miss it and having a site but I guess a Blogger site is good too really.
I want to say that the old posts are getting added slowly. The Blogger service has a word verification thing after so many posts that are made in one day. This means that I will be posting them as I can since the word verification goes away after 24 hours.
Well, I have to say that the free version of flash won't work right for me. This means that I am stuck with no Youtube still. I have to say though that I want to use Youtube, I just have to wait until I can get flash working. I may ask on some forums and see if anyone can help me with this.
I decided to use my NEC MobilePro 780 a bit more. I figure that I own it so I might as well keep using it. I have to say that if the screen was usable outside I would love it a lot more. Its really annoying that I can't use it more often. It may be old but it can save a Word document just fine and that is what is the most important thing to me,
I have to say that I have been watching Home Improvement a lot lately. This week has been 18 episodes a night marathon. This is one of the reasons I really love my TiVo. I have it set to record them so I have stuff to watch when I am bored. Its funny really since I never really watch TV and I have the 80 hour DirecTV branded TiVo.
Supper was mini pirogies deep fried with melted butter. They are very good deep fried since they get nice and crispy. We got the mini ones again since they are easier to eat really. Weather for tomorrow is snow showers. They said we may get some accumulations Friday night. We shall see what happens though.

You may have noticed that my site has forwarded here. I used to have a server but decided to just go to an account here on Blogger. This is a step down I know but I am sick of having a server in my room. I have to say that not needing to type these in HTML is a lot nicer that is for sure! I am posting all of the old pages here. The best thing is that this site will automatically order the pages right. The server will be going down soon, possibly tomorrow so I hope everyone has this new site bookmarked!
I will be keeping the setup the same. I will keep the weather and dinner reports here since I really like those. I will have to post all the reviews here once I get time to fix them. The pictures need to be made smaller so they will wrap correctly. I have to say that it does feel weird going to Blogger again after hosting my own server. I have to admit that Blogger isn't really bad since its owned by Google after all!
I have been playing Disgaea still. I looked it up and the game has 14 main episodes and then some ones that you can unlock. I have to admit, this is one of the best made games I have seen. Almost all parts of the story have voice acting. They don't have cut scenes in the traditional sense but just voice.
Had hamburgers for supper tonight. I had mine plain fried with A1 sauce though. Also had baked beans and French fries. Weather report for tomorrow is AM snow showers and cold. It is also going to be very cold tonight and tomorrow night.
I also got flash player working now. I decided to use the free open source software version of Flash player 7. This means that I can finally watch Youtube and stuff now! I still wish Adobe would make a 64 bit version of Flash 9 for Linux already!

Well I have officially decided that I will be keeping Linux. I tried installing it onto my T20 on a 40GB drive but I am having problems with ACPI and its kind of a slow. I am going to be keeping the 80GB I have with XP on it for backup or when I need to use XP for something. I have most everything working on the Acer now too except for flash but that is Adobe's fault! Here is a message for Adobe:
RELEASE PROPER DRIVERS FOR X64 LINUX!
I have also decided that I may be fixing up the 570. It is dependent on whether or not I can find the needed parts for it though. I want to get a CF to IDE adapter and use a 1GB card and a small Linux like Puppy or Damn Small Linux. This is since its so small that it could be a good use for a travel computer. The thing is that I need to get ram and a battery for it. The thing has 192MB now but I could give it a bit of a boost with 320. Also, the battery only lasts for 5 minutes most.
Supper today was chicken nuggets and French fries. These are little pop corn chicken nuggets that you can get in the grocery store for pretty cheap. They are quite good too which is a bit of a shock really for the price. We also had some jalapeño poppers that we had left. Weather tomorrow is snow showers and wind.

I have been on Linux for a day now and I need to say that KDE is different then I was use to on GNOME. For example, the text editor kWrite is not tabbed. Also I am still getting use to the different SuSE menu. It has tabs for stuff and then the applications tab has categories. I have to say that I really like it and a lot more then the GNOME menus.
One of the best things that I found out is that my MP3 player works just fine on SuSE. This is great since Sony claims that it needed Windows Media Player. Turns out it don't I guess. The thing is standard drag and drop really. That makes me really happy since I can add music when ever I want to.
Supper today was chicken cordon blue. That is a stuffed piece of chicken with ham and Swiss cheese inside. I love these things and the best thing is that they are pretty cheap. I had a nice Hungary Man dinner for lunch. I love the XXL turkey since it’s a huge meal and really good. The weather report for tomorrow is freezing rain and sleet. That is going to be fun!
Well, looks like the memory card world is getting a change again. We now have the new SATA style Compact Flash cards coming out later this year. I kind of hate change when it comes to this type of thing since everything is the old connector and its not backwards compatible.

Well, guess what I did again. I will give you a hint. Linux. Yes, I installed Linux again! I chose a delightful KDE SuSE in a 64 bit flavor. This is working good so far but so far I need to get flash to work on it. This is because Adobe is being cruel and refuses to make a 64bit version for Linux users.
I took a few screen shots and made a special folder for them on the server. Here is the link to the folder index. I will not be making a page for these since its easier to just link to the folders index.
The other thing you may have seen is that I am converting to PHP now. This is so I can use the include command and make my life a lot easier!!! I love the fact that every page that I have doesn't need to updated when I decide to add a new page.
Supper was 2 Big Macs and fries. We got them since we had a coupon that was buy one get one free. Not bad really though I should have said no onions since I can't get the taste out of my mouth now! Oh well could have been worse.
I forgot to add this yesterday. I tried 2 new energy drinks, both Monster. One of them was the Java ones. I decided to try the Irish Blend. It was good but a little too sweet. The second one I tried was a Juiced one called Mixxd which is pretty much a weird flavor. The thing tastes mostly like grape juice with some under tastes I can't describe.

I have been thinking about this. The articles section contains some pretty useful stuff so here is an idea that will make it more accessible to everyone. Starting now, whenever I post a new article, I will also put it in to that days blog entry as well. I will use a slightly different method though. There is going to be a short description of the article. This also gives me a place to put the announcement for it.
Sine it has been 2 weeks tomorrow, I have decided that I will just use the iPaq until Circuit City decides to transfer the warranty so I can get these buttons fixed! I also want to use it since the battery is shot on my Acer. I know I still have my T20 but its getting to be a pain taking any laptops with me. This is because they take time to start up.
The only bad things about my iPaq is that the battery is pretty much shot. I'm thinking of picking up the 3400 MAH battery from Lion Battery for 75 bucks. The only bad thing about that battery is that it will make the already big iPaq bigger! The other problem would be that I also can use a new case for it. Actually, I don't even have a case come to think of it!
I am pretty picky when it comes to such stuff as a case. I like generic pouches mostly since they are universal really. That is very handy when you have several devices. I use to have a very nice Sony case for my Clies. The only thing I didn't like was the belt loop as I prefer a clip for when I'm not wearing a belt. The Sony had one thing I loved a lot though. The case zippered up! The zipper broke and I never found a case I liked.
I have too say though, the iPaq has one of the best styluses I have ever used though. Its plastic but HP was smart enough to use a really stiff plastic that doesn't have the annoying flex to it. Its also very nice sized and feels GREAT in your hand. I wrote my review of the iPaq with it too. I still prefer a full sized keyboard.
Supper was pot pies today. The bad thing is that they tasted kind of salty so I ended up throwing most of mine away. I think I am getting sick since nothing was really appealing to me today. We got about 5 inches of snow.

Well, it snowed! I am not sure hoe much and its still coming down so I will report the snow fall amounts tomorrow! I made a little snow man since I was bored today but it didn't come out to great though. Here is a picture that I took of it on my back porch.
I have to say that the bug APC battery I picked up last year comes in handy sometimes. Especially when you don't feel like using the charger on your laptop when your on the couch. I hate having to plug in sometimes and its also good for when your at a friends house and don't have a plug to use. I just wish that it lasted a little longer really.
I want to say a little something about the articles I am working on now. One of them is going to be an energy drink guide. This will be the ones that I have tried and liked. This article will be updated as I try new ones. I will also try to list the taste and the caffeine content of them when I can. This will contain a small section of my favorites.
The next article I am working on is going to be a Wiki style page titled Computers in TV and Movies. This page will not be editable but you can submit the information to me. The way I plan on doing this will be links to the part of the page. I have to learn how to do an link that goes to part of the page though however so this page is going to take a long time to get done.
The next one that I am working on is going to really piss off Mac users. It is titled Living in an iWorld and will take some serious jabs at Apple ruining the market. So if you LOVE Apple, maybe you should stay away from this one since I can't stand Apple! I would like to keep a neutral stance on the site but hey, its my site!
One thing I have always wondered is why these damn Necco hearts are so addictive! I start munching on these things and I can't stop! These things hurt my teeth too! They need to start making them soft! We had 2 bags of ones that were soft and really good. I also noticed that a lot of them are not even readable really!
Supper today was frozen pizza since my dad came home late with the weather today. It was the rising crust DiGiorno pizza. I like this pizza since the sauce is not spicy like on some frozen ones. It also has good cheese.

Happy Birthday to me!
Well, today is my birthday and as I said before I got my Walkman S616F. I also got 25 bucks from my grandparents so it was a good year. Last year I got my VX Revolution and HP PhotoSmart D7360.
Weather tomorrow is taking a turn for the worst. I will post the winter storm warning here:
"SNOW WILL MOVE INTO THE AREA AFTER MIDNIGHT...AND CONTINUE INTO FRIDAY. SNOW ACCUMULATIONS OF 1 TO 2 INCHES ARE EXPECTED BY DAYBREAK. THE HEAVIEST SNOW IS EXPECTED TO FALL FROM FRIDAY MORNING INTO MID AFTERNOON...WITH TOTAL ACCUMULATIONS OF 5 TO 8 INCHES BY LATE AFTERNOON. SLEET AND FREEZING RAIN WILL LIKELY MIX WITH THE SNOW DURING THE AFTERNOON... ESPECIALLY OVER SOUTHERN PORTIONS OF THE WARNING AREA...WHERE A LIGHT COATING OF ICE IS POSSIBLE. THE SNOW AND MIXED PRECIPITATION WILL BEGIN TO TAPER OFF ON FRIDAY EVENING... WITH ANOTHER INCH OR TWO OF SNOW ACCUMULATION POSSIBLE FRIDAY NIGHT."
So you can see we are getting quite the storm!
Supper today was stuffed peppers. I don't eat the peppers since I don't really like them. I do love the meat balls that my dad stuffs them with though!
I have been going into items in Disgaea to try and level my guys up a bit now. That is a really good game and its defiantly addictive! I found a trick too. I can go into cheap and easy items and when I subdue a specialist, move it to a item I need.

I have to say that today was a fun day. I decided that I am going to start messing around in the item world on Disgaea. This is because I want to get my stats up a bit since I have been facing some game over lately. I need to get some better attacks since that also helps me level up my mainpeople.
Supper was Salisbury steak again. This time a little different though since we added some canned mushrooms with it. They were very good this way. Weather report is snow on Friday now. Rumor is 2/4 inches of snow. We shall see what happens since they are wrong a lot. We may get nothing or we may get a foot! Who knows!
I have to say that solitaire on Windows Mobile is EVIL! I lose so many times when I play on the Pocket PC. I have to say though I was really shocked last night. I played an half hour with not a single win then I got 5 in a row! I think it is pretty shocking to say the least since I lose so much more. I lose a lot on the NEC too.
Tomorrow is my birthday!

Well first thing is I have to say that the rumored HP UMPC is starting too look tempting. It is more an EEE killer. The thing has a 8.9" screen with a WXGA resolution of 1366x766 with a scratch proof coating on it. This is very tempting as the rumor is 600 or under. If it is this will be mine by Christmas!
The site has been suffering a little now that I have new games. Disgaea is more addictive then Wipeout Pulse. The thing I like about the Wipeout series is that they are fun games that you can pick up and play for a few minutes rather then get sucked into the storyline of an RPG game. This includes SRPG games like Disgaea. The thing that makes this game really fun for me is that its all battles and not traveling. One of the things that annoyed me about Final Fantasy was when you are traveling and you keep having random battles. This is not the case in Disgaea!
I want to get to work on the computers page now and let the articles wait since I have the introduction done and one article. The thing is that I have been so wrapped up in everything else. I would love to get the page done but I end up getting distracted. I am placing the old one in its place for now until I get It done.
Supper today was hot dogs and home made French fries. My dad gets some really big potatoes from work that make great fries! We had some gravy that we got cheap so we made that too. We had Nathans hot dogs since we had gotten the big pack at Sam's Club that time. Snow showers tomorrow and still calling for the mix on Saturday.

Well I have to say that Disgaea is one addictive game! It was worth the 40 bucks but I would have liked it to be 30 since I think that is a great price for a PSP game to be. I am leveling up a bit since the level cap is 9,999 instead of 99 or even 999. I also found that if you toss an enemy into the base panel, you have a chance of capturing them and using them to do your bidding.
Supper was beef stew today. Came out a little watery but otherwise great! I just wish it was a little thicker though. Weather is calling for light wintery mix on Saturday but you can never go by that when it's a week away if you ask me. I have to say that since winter is almost over I do not really care much now.

I got my second game today. It’s a strategic role playing game. So this is not like a turn based role playing game since you can move around and then attack instead of just attack and attack and attack! This is a fun thing and was worth the 40 bucks to me. I may buy the Final Fantasy Tactics after I beat this game.
So I dug out the iPaq while I wait to get it fixed and the battery is pretty trashed. I was playing with WiFi for a few minutes and it drained 10 percent in 5 minutes. I am thinking of getting an extended battery since I kind of need to now. I am still waiting to see when I will be sending the thing out.
I had turkey for supper today. Very good turkey too! It was a Butter Ball one. The only thing I like more then turkey like this is open face turkey samiches. I just wish we had some stuffing for it. Weather tonight is just rain.

Well, I did finally get the buttons right now at least. I think they look a little better then the basic header 3 links I had before. I have been thinking of using some new tricks. I want to learn PHP. It has ways that you can include a file instead of making them on every page.
You may have noticed the automatic sizing now. I just removed the width stuff from the CSS file and now it doesn't resize the site. This is good since I hated that but I didn't know that it wasn't needed to make the navigation bar work right. My friend Nathan's brother is the one who helped me so I want to thank you Kyle. If you don't read my blog, I know Nathan does and he will tell you for me.
Well I only got one of the games I wanted, they didn't have the other one. I got Wipeout Pulse. Yes I know I already have the first one, Wipeout Pure but these games are a lot of fun. The people who work at these game stores can be pretty stupid sometimes. The one lady there said that the PSP has been out for four years when it has only been out since 2005 in the US.
Supper today was Old Country Buffet. Very good today too, they had the chicken and dumplings this time. I mixed it with some mashed potatoes but I used too much potatoes and it didn't taste too good. I got the usual barbecue chicken and ice cream too. The weather for tomorrow is rain only.

Well, I have to say that I got a new energy drink today first. It’s a Monster Java one. It is a nonalcoholic white Russian. These by them selves are not new but this is the first time I seen the new flavors. There are 2 more that I didn't get to try. They are Irish blend and nut up. These are Irish cream and hazelnut.
I have to say that web design is not a fun thing sometimes. I ended up trying a Web 2.0 look but I do not like the look much so I am trying to get rid of the blue border. Please pardon the mess!
Supper today was a Hungry Man XXL Turkey dinner. This one is my favorite one since I eat everything. I like to mix the potatoes and stuffing with gravy together since the potatoes are a little dry by themselves.
I am getting 2 games for my PSP tomorrow. I will post them when I get them since I do not know what will happen yet. I learned that it is better to get PSP games since they are cheaper then a PS3 game for me. I rather drop 60 bucks on 2 games rather then 1 game.

Ok, little update on what I said yesterday. The Xbox 360 failure rate, according to a post on Engadget, is 16%. That is not as high as I said yesterday but if you ask me, anything over then 5% is unacceptable. Anything over 15% and no way I am going to risk it.
I have to say that I chose to break up the rants into sections since it would be way to long and take forever to get it done. I have a bunch of stuff set up and I will post them as I finish it. I have to say that I really enjoy doing the rants since I get to vent about issues. I also have some that are article styled rants.
Supper today was Burger King. I got the king sized Chicken Tendergrill sandwich. I love the chicken since its not breaded, only grilled. I do not get Burger King often since it is expensive. We are supposed to get snow this weekend. As to how much I do not know. It is suppose to come Sunday into Monday.

Well today was wet. It rained all day then we got a little bit of snow that fell heavy. We got 5 inches according to the weather. It didn't last and now we have about 2 inches, one of which is fresh. Supper was haddock breaded and fried with melted butter on it. It was very good and didn't have a nasty taste like some fish can get.
My dad was thinking of picking up an Xbox 360 but they seem to be more failures then anything. We read that the failure rate is 61%. So you have almost a 3 in 4 chance of failure. Great hardware eh? Why doesn't anyone have a class action suit against Microsoft?
This first rant is going to be big. The outline is about 4 pages long. I keep adding to it too so sorry for the long write time.

It snowed! I won't have a measurement until tomorrow but looks like we got about 3 or 4 inches. We are suppose to get more tonight with a possible mix. Supper was fried chicken and Kraft Macaroni and cheese. The fried chicken is just breaded with seasoned breadcrumbs. I love it like this!
Went out today, the roads weren't the best but we figured it would be better then going out tomorrow. I have to wonder though… When people horde for a storm, why is it milk and bread? I don't see how this will be good since its just bread and milk.
I have to say the first rant will be big. Once I finish this I will work on the computers page. I know this is taking a really long time but you cant rush perfection now can you?
I found out that my Rio Cali can do a 4GB SD card!

Well, I decided that I will be doing the Computers page a little different then planned. It will be a page linking to others but I will use categories. I will just list what I had on the category pages for ease. I do not feel up to making tons of pages that only contain a little text and will allow me to get it done faster!
Well, supper today was raviolis and very good ones too! We got the large ones this time instead of the small ones. I don't know if this is why they were better then when we usually get them. Though there is just a chance that we got a really good batch.
SNOW! Yes, I did say SNOW! We are getting a potential 7 inches plus tomorrow! This is depending on how the storm tracks. If it tracks one way, we can get a lot. The funny thing is that last year, on Valentines Day, we got a pretty bad storm too!
I found something today. I will leave the guessing up to you!
I have some current events stuff for today. Think of it as me sort of reviving the news section of the site… I will not be linking to the stories since they are only on Endadget or Mobility Site anyway.
It seems that BlackBerry users are having yet more problems with the service. Seriously I would love to know how the service goes down so often. It seems that its either BlackBerry outage or ATT Wireless data outages…
Microsoft is taking over the market it seems! They purchased the SideKick maker Danger. This means that it is very likely that they will make a Windows Mobile SideKick. Apple better start watching they're six! Even Sony Ericsson is going to the Windows side!
This one I will link to because it has a picture needed to be seen to read this. PSP Mock Up This thing looks nice but a nightmare to use. First of all, I am going to keep this short: I like the current PSP. I would just like a second analogue stick and more games.

I am working on the first general rant for this site. I have a large outline ready and I am doing the article now. I also have to work on the computers page so I am keeping quite busy. I just want to say that i want to get the first article done soon and the computers page can wait since that is going to have a lot of information on it.
Here is what i am going to do. I will work on putting some of the stuff on the page but they will not be links. It will be just what I own. How does that sound? Good? Good! I want to get the page up quick I really do but I also want to get the article up fast.
I want to say that today was a fun day. Not in the sense that I did something fun but we got some interesting weather here today. We got THUNDER SNOW! That is a snow storm where there is thunder and lightning. Its a heavy snow too. Overall, I think we got about an inch most.
Supper today was ham and potato salad. I love the Cooks ham. They have to be one of, if not the best, ham I ever had. Potato salad was home made and really good. Its Hellmans Mayonaise with potatoes, hard boiled eggs, and celery. Its very good on a sandwhich too.
I have been using my NEC more lately. I want to give it some more use since I haven't been using it much since I got out of school.I want to try and get a newer one like a 900c or anything with an ARM processor instead of MIPS. I would only take another MIPS processor based one if it was a VGA or larger screen.
I called about the iPaq warranty so I am getting it fixed apparantly. I just need to wait for michelle to transfer the warranty to me, them to send me the box, send it be fixed, then wait for it. I need to get a new battery since mine is practically on its deathbed so I will get a extended battery most likely. I also want to get a new stylus since the tip on mine is messed up a bit.

You may have noticed the new page I added. This page is going to be where I post rants and articles. You can find more information on the new section when you see the first one that I put up, depending on when I actually finish the first one. One thing to note is these will not be daily! Whenever I have the urge to write one, I will and it will be dated once finished and then uploaded. Please note that at the time of writing this, the first one to be uploaded is planned to be posted on Sunday, February 10, 2008 but may be posted before or after this date.
I have really been working on the site lately. Adding a new page though is a major job since I need to add it on EVERY page I have on this site. The includes every single blog entry. This is one reason I like to use the category page. Anyway, expect some more additions as time goes on. I am still working on trying to get the computers page ready. I have owned a lot of stuff so its taking quite a while to even list the stuff let alone make the pages for them. I may just make a page of what I have with small descriptions if I can not get the motivation to make all these pages.
We got about an inch of snow today as forecasted. I was really hoping for more though. We didn't get the rain they said we were going to get so that’s good. The artichokes today were a little tough this time so we won't be buying them again probably unless they are really big or look really fresh. I was kind of upset with these because I was really in the mood for them too.

Well, I will be adding a new section to the site soon. It is going to be an article page. It will deal with stuff like "How to buy a laptop" and maybe some software how to guides. I want to post some specialized rants there also with topics. The section may also contain general rants instead of in the blog section of the site.
I plan on working on the computers page tonight. I want to get it done soon since I have a teaser page up. I did the teaser page since the link was already there and I figured if anyone clicked it, I would just put the coming soon page up. I have to say I am pretty lazy with updating the site some days and I am trying to get into a better update schedule.
I had tacos for supper. Weather for tomorrow is snow to rain and about an inch of snow accumulating. Then light snow that night. Going to be fun! We are having artichokes tomorrow and not going out.

Well, I decided to type this up on the NEC for a change. I started to save files in rich text format instead of Word files. That works better because some stuff can't open a Word file saved on the NEC. My iPaq is like that. I think it is because the NEC is so old that the file is not compatable with newer software.
Some good news for the site today... I fixed the T20 review. It took me a little while but its done. I have some obcessive traits when it comes to my code. I like to have everything perfect with spaces in between lines of code like header and paragraph. So now everything is fixed.
I have decided how I want to do the computer pages. It will be mostly a spec list for the device, maybe a little descripton, and wheter or not I still have it. I also want to do maybe some review work on some other stuff I own, like a flashback review of the NEC.
You know, I am so sick of the commercial for the sauceless hotwings at KFC. The whole point of a hot wing is the sauce if you ask me. The sauce is the sole thing that makes a hot wing a hot wing! Plus not to mention the commercial is pretty annoying. Its also on constantly.
I will be calling in the iPaq warranty this weekend possibly. I will probably get another HX2495B but its better then nothing. I will probably use it more since I have Windows XP installed agian. I wish that I had Windows Mobile 6 instead of 5 since its the newer software. I also like the iPaq 100 series since it has SDHC.
Supper today was Tyson chicken fingers and home made French fries. Very good! I made some cheese sauce with Velveta. Dipping the chicken in the cheese sauce is pretty good too. The potatoes we used were pretty big so there was a lot of long fries.

Why is playing with old operating systems so much fun? I installed the Macintosh Emulation software again. So now I can play with a Mac OS 7 machine. Sure its really old but its still fun to mess around with. Since I have a way to extract files, I can do a post for the Blog in the emulater. Pretty cool if you ask me. I will have too see what kind of programs I can find for it. I know that I will be able to find old games for sure.
The bad thing about running a Mac in emulation is that the computer starts to heat up. I can get to 71C when running it sometimes so I lock mine to 800MHZ like I do on battery to keep the heat down. This also makes it feel more like an old Mac since it runs a little slower.
I have a 500MB "hard drive" made for it so I have a lot of room in case I find any cool programs. I could also make more drives. There is a 2GB limit so if I need to, I can make a 2GB one thats seperate from one that I made. What I really like is the fact that I can take the files off the image and even add files to it. The one that I normally use is not working correctly so I have a demo of TransMac installed. If you know how to fix HFVExplorer to make coping work correctly, please Email me so I can use that. I only have 30 days on the trial program.
I have decided that I will be adding a few new pages soon. One of them is going to be a page of facts. The thing is that I do not know how true they are though. I will post them from a thread on a forum I am, and a urban legends site that tells whether they are true or not. From them, I will post the true ones and maybe some others since they can be very interesting. They will have links to the page.
I have started listing the computer stuff I have and will be ready to start making the pages soon. I am still thinking about how to do these pages since I don't have pictures of everything and I do not want to post pictures from Google Images or anything. I will have that done soon I hope. I am busy doing other stuff like messing with Mac OS 7.
I am also thinking of learning some new tricks in HTML. I would love to learn image wrapping so I can have a picture with text on the side. This would make the site look a little nicer to me. I also want to redo the home page to make it better. Here are some ideas I have for the site...
I can remove the side bar on the homepage and just post the links in the center of the page. This is one thing I don't really want to do becuase it could mess up CSS on the site. If I do end up doing it this way, I will remove the links from the side bar and everything will be listed in the center of the page.
Another option is that I can have an updates link in the index. This option is putting the updates in the center of the index page. This would be the blog pages, anything I am currently working on, and maybe some announcements for when I will be adding stuff. This is a problem though as they will make the index page a lot bigger then it is now. I would like to keep that page to a minimum.
The third option I am considering is making a horizontal navigation bar and removing the CSS stuff to make the pages work better on older browsers like the one on my NEC MobilePro 780. Maybe I will do it, maybe I won't. I do like the idea of having the links on a side bar since it makes the site look better. I would like to use images for the links but that would be a bit of a pain since I would need to make them and add them to every page.
I doubt I will do much on the site really since it does look nice they way it already is. If you have an opinion, you can Email me your site ideas.
Weather today was dry for the most part but towards about 7 we started getting some thunder storms. Dinner was steak, baked potato, and a salad. I make a mean salad. Cucumbers, chick peas, and croutons drowned in balsamic vinegar.

Well, looks like I finished the review for the Sony Walkman S616F today. I decided to just touch on the interface and not take pictures of it since it would be a pain to take them in the dark with no flash and crop um down to size. I also decided to just use Picasa for the photos.
I also decided to start on the computers page. What I will do is post it as I work on it. I have a lot to do with this page so I will explain what it will be. It will be a index page like the Blog is but each link will be a page on something I own or have owned. It will include PDA and MP3 player related stuff as well as my computers.
I am also planning some other stuff for the fun stuff page. I want to add some neat stuff like weird or fun facts. I will be doing a lot of work on this site this year. I don't know what will happen since I have a lot to do.
Weather was wet today. Rained off and on, and will tonight and tomorrow. FUN! Supper today was Wendy's. We got those dollar double cheese burgers and fries. Very good! I really enjoyed them much more then McDonalds.

Well, I added a teaser page for the computer section and removed all old links for the news page since I removed it. I also started on the review of the Walkman and removed the old T20 review until I fix it.
Supper today was the Salisbury patty with steak dust on it again. Not much on the weather today. We just got some snow showers. Showers tomorrow with possible thunder! FUN!
Here are a few little impressions with the Sony so far: I like it! I would prefer a mini USB cable but the battery lasts a long time so its not a problem. Its small and fits very nicely on a neck strap. I also think the volume is quite good as I am not really using much, maybe a forth of the total. Look for the review soon.

Good news everyone! I took pictures of the Walkman and started a review. So far I really like it.
Since I want to wait a bit for a proper review I want to post a little first impressions on it. Consider it a 2 part review. I will post the part 1 when ever I get it done.
Supper today was home made Buffalo wings. For those who don't know what they are, they are pretty much chicken wings in hot sauce. Very good! I had a Hungry Man Turkey XXL for breakfast too. Pretty good day all in all. Snow to wintery mix is called for tomorrow though I don't think it will even add up.
We have a new link submitted. Its my British friend Simon "Pip" Richards blog Simon, LOL. Be warned… He is British after all so he may pull some Monty Python on you!

Well, today is a good day. I have some really good news! For one, a certain page that I was working on finally got finished! Yes, I finally have the links page done and I am working on the next page now about computers.
Secondly, I got to go for Chinese food today. I love going to the buffet. I also like sushi but the only one I really get is rice with crab meat on top with a band of seaweed. I really like the fruit they have too. Today they had kiwi and mango slices.
The third and final thing is that I got my birthday gift a little early. I got a new MP3 player. I chose a 4GB Sony Walkman S616. It was pretty well priced too. It was 120 at Target but Circuit City price matched it. I may post a review on it, or at the very least, a general overview of it.

Well something amazing happened once again. I went back to Windows again. I am going to just run a virtual Linux installation in Virtual Box since it is so much easier to use that way. I don't need to install anything and when something messes up, I don't need to care since its not the only operating system on my laptop.
Dinner today was breaded fish fillets and fries. Not much since dad got home a little late. Weather was a mush of ice. Fun.
