I miss learning how to drive with you. I miss weeks on the Island. I miss your stories about goats. I miss your songs. I miss you and grandma taking us to town. I just wanted to be greedy and have some more time – I don't miss cancer, its a real pain in the ass.

I don't pretend this blog makes a difference or anyone actually gets information from it. However I like to think that somewhere a random person finds it when they are dealing with a problem and I help. Be it with microsoft products, security issues, goat care, …life. I like to think that I know it all – but I don't.

I do know that the only way you can ever take away the pain of death is to know that if you trust in God - that one day when your cancer comes, you can be with your family once again. If God isnt your thing, I cant express how important it is to just call your loved ones, and remind them that you care, because the clock of life isnt yours to wind.

I love you grandma and grandpa’s and Kathleen and I will see you soon.

So today I worked from home for various reasons and here is a account of my day…

1) The neighbors dog can jump over a 6 foot fence. Into my yard with the goats. I was also told after this happened that the dog has the ability to walk along the top of the fence like a cat. They call him trapeze dog.

2) Goats take no crap from a dog in the food area. After #1 the goats charged and tried to ram the dog. haha Goats 1 dog 0

3) Two kids in the area skateboard every day, today I heard them yell out “dude we are totally going to my house to have some pizza and mountain dew” ahh to be in high school again…

4) I was able to make a QRP QSO with a guy on top of Mt.Si that was cool

5) My fear of owning goats happened today, …they got free. We had to chase after them. I left the gate open, but they have now had a taste of free range and they want more.

I also washed the pickup, which hasnt been done in 5 years it was a mess. But I did get REAL photos of it online 1974 F250 Camper Special

so with a delayed flight I was checking out new PaulDotCom notes and one thing I always like is hacking, and found this new tool called MDD for memory dumper, not new but nice set of tools for it. You can dump out the memory and then hack up and pull out passwords and other goodies, handy for virus work, forensics, or just plain old hacking Plugins MorePlugins

as I wait for my flight today in KCMO international – possibly the lamest international airport as they lock you in the gate and you cant walk around, the only food is from a crappy little cart. I got here early because I didn't wake up for the extra early flight home. of course my flight is booked because of people missing the early early flight due to the time change today. Which makes me pissed as that flight was empty.

So brings me to my current flight, my lovely company buys the cheapest crap tickets they can off ebay or whatever and then shoves me in a center seat. seriously wtf. So I ask to move to a isle,

sir that will be 39.99. well all we have is our extra-class seats left. United here is a google hit for united sucks. its only 130 for a first class upgrade why the hell would I pay 40 bucks for a crappy in front of the engine seat?

To get on to my airport security lameness, I fly quite regular normally once a month somewhere so I consider my self a veteran flyer – I do not take my liquids out of my bag EVER its a dumb security attempt to further make flying a pain. Something I have noticed lately when I arrive into security early or real late. People actually look at the security scan on the xray. If you fly normal times no one cares what you have in your bag I obviously fly with a TON of electronics only if I arrive into security in a slow time do people even give it a thought. Today I arrived extra early because I had nothing else to do…(hence the non nerdy blog) They gave me crap about my toothpaste and such telling me I need to take it out. I stared at him and said OK, then he said seriously you need to, I said well I will next time. No I wont. I will just let them take the time to search thru my dirty underware. and think to my self as he tells me “you know if you would have taken this out it would be a lot faster” no …no I dont think it would Im still stuck here, this way I at least get to air out my undies so they dont stink so bad when I get home.

I am eating dinner in denver international. First RANT ATT why the heck cant you get 3G working in a airport seriously that isnt even acceptable….

As I munch away on my burger I cant help but notice something funny, I only have a real fork. The spoon and knife are plastic. Why the spoon? Can I easily pry something with a spoon? and what is to stop me from bringing my own spoon thru security. sigh…

I recently put up blinds everywhere in the house, becasue of cupons we had I purchased blinds at Home Depot and Lowes. I thought I would review some of my findings.

Lowes, Had more selection on expensive blinds (fancy wood ones and other styles) However lowes cheap blinds SUCK! they are by far the cheapest binds out there. Lowes “cheap cut to fit” blinds however are cool they have the draw string in the back and close much better then the ones with the draw string in the middle.

Lowes cut to fit are also full aluminum hardware at the top this is much better then the plastic ones. However they are still cheap in places.

Home depot has better quality cheap ass blinds, however the cut to fit cheap ones are not as good as the lowes ones

Today I had some free time and got lost in Kansas City – I found this big ass mall which is empty its crazy to see all the property that is vacant. Seriously you cant really imagine the scale of this thing and then see it all empty with trash all over. Its surreal.
