... other than just general "stuff."It's too cold and windy to ride, so we're not able to do that. It's also too cold to paint, so I've got no new awesome rocket pictures to show. I'm working on getting back into R/C flying, but the items haven't a… more »

Well, it's not (nearly) perfect, but for my first paintjob in over 20 years, it's not bad! Certainly no fault of the paint. I'm amazed at the quality of this paint - it's just Ace brand metallic spray paint!We have some graphics we're planing to ap… more »

Well, as I said in yesterday's post, I'd been waiting for a > 60°F day in order to paint, but it's not going to happen, so I went ahead and put coats #1 and #2 of the second color onto Callisto. I don't have any pictures to put up yet, but it came o… more »

I haven't written a lot this week as there isn't much to write about! It's getting cold here already, so hobby activities tend to slow down. I've got finish painting some rockets, but I've been waiting on a > 60°F day to do it. Looks like I'm not… more »

My attempts at moving to full-time Linux are well-documented here @ SoD. ;) I made another attempt this weekend and I'm closer than I've ever been. Vista made this attempt a real nightmare, heh. Ah well. When I built this box, I built it with 2 i… more »

I haven't done a Monday AM mish-mash in a while so here goes! :D Had a totally awesome weekend! Saturday started off with a trip to the Feast of the Hunter's Moon. It was our first time going. Yeah, we've lived in Lafayette for 6 years now (and M… more »

If you've been reading this blog for a while, or if you've delved into the older posts, you'll know that I was until recently involved in the hobby of flying radio controlled airplanes. It was a fun hobby, but due to various factors (money, time, politi… more »

Yesterday I read "Do You Always Play The Same Class Archetype?" over at We Fly Spitfires (which, btw, is an awesome MMO blog - read it!). Well, I instantly knew the answer: "pretty much, yeah." I do like to try a little of everything, but in the end,… more »

My friend Chad had read yesterday's post on Atheism/etc and we were chatting about it, when he said there was something he'd always wanted to ask an Atheist. So I said "sure, go ahead!" and his question was (and I'm paraphrasing...) So, ok, hypotheti… more »

Oh boy - if you've been reading my writing for a while, you're going to be saying to yourself "oh god, not again..." But - too bad - you don't have to read. ;) I know I sound like a broken record on this subject, but seriously: in the MMO world, fantas… more »

I'm posting this warning, as I haven't in the past made too many "serious" posts on this blog. Well, I mean, talking about exercise and weight loss and a couple of surgeries is somewhat serious, but I kept it fairly light and didn't provide a lot of det… more »

My friend Kari posted a comment in reply to my EVE post. Not talking about EVE, but instead about Age of Conan which I'd mentioned in that post. Her comment: AoC doesn't have the population to be anywhere as fulfilling as it should be. Gorgeous game… more »

Ok, as promised, here's my full Naga review. I have not had time to get any good photos of the device - but - it looks like every other photo of the Naga you've seen. It's not like Razer's hiding anything. I'll get some - mainly to show how it fits my… more »

Her surgery went great! Got it done on schedule Friday morning, she stayed overnight in the hospital and then came home Saturday around noonish. Her first thought, in the hospital parking lot was "we don't have any O'banon, do we?" So it was off to D&… more »
