Little Organization…
I decided I was beginning to accumulate enough entries to justify organizing them by category. You can now sort by the following:
All - Every entry
Blog Entries - Random crap
Computers - All my techno-babble
Religion - Or my lack thereof
Skateboarding - My other love in life
Music - Anything music related I post about
While those 4 or 5 [...]
Hardware Overkill
My uncle volunteers (works?) at a “club” in town where AA and NA meetings are held, and wanted me to inventory the parts in a computer the accounting department uses. Since it was a computer designed for Quickbooks, Excel, and maybe some email, I was expecting a fairly low-end computer, or maybe a 2 or [...]

Several months ago:
Shawn: Oh man, remember “wussy”?
Me and Justin: Hahahaha
Shawn: It’s like a pussy and a…wimp?
Me: Weenie? No idea.
Justin: Pussy and a wimp.
Shawn: We need to bring that word back.
Me and Justin: Hahahhahaha
Me: Well if you guys are bringing back “wussy”, I’m bringing back “renob”.
Shawn and Justin: Hahahahah
Shawn: DO it.
Me: What? I’m not seriously bringing [...]
R.I.P. Casper Skatepark?
From the Casper Star Tribune:
Casper YMCA to give skate park back to city
The Casper YMCA intends to give a skateboard park adjacent to its facilities back to the city on July 1, and City Manager Tom Forslund told City Council members at a work session Thursday that they need to decide what to do with [...]
Skate and/or die
I set an end-of-summer skateboarding goal for myself to kickflip out of a 50-50. There was no reason in particular that I set this goal, the decision was completely arbitrary. In fact, though I’ve been able to 50-50 for at least 6 or 7 years, and set this goal about 2 weeks ago, today was [...]

90% of my computer jobs are formats. I get several “My computer’s mucked up and I just want it wiped”-type calls a month. I love actually upgrading or building new computers for people and I think people enjoy sitting down with me and picking out a new system piece by piece, including the case, for [...]

Skating got cut a little short today when Chuck’s board decided to stop while we were bombing a hill downtown. I’m not sure what happened; I was looking down at the time. I just heard Chuck’s board catch, looked up, and watched him fly about 10 feet before he hit the ground and rolled. He [...]
Read More..>>Life in the circus, day 2
So last night a friend came over, watched me play video games all night, and I finally crashed at about 7AM to Shaun of the Dead. Before he completely passed out, my friend asked “What are the chances we’re waking up to circus music tomorrow?”, and I replied “Oh, 100%. Guaranteed.”
When I woke up to [...]
Rhapsodies on a Cat-Piano
My dad can fix/build anything, and has a fascination with automated musical instruments: player pianos, nickelodeons, etc. When he was younger, he even repaired player pianos as a side job/hobby. Well, his dad was a member of the Shriners, so when the Shriners’ calliope went down, they knew exactly who to go to to get [...]
