Good times, Good Times.....

Did you happen to see this movie this weekend? I hope for all you geeky sake you did. Because it doth rock! I am a big Narnia fan as it is, and I have never seen a movie stick so closely to the source material. My wife read LOTR and said the movies stayed very true to the books, they just kinda took things into a different sequence at times. Now don't get me wrong, LOTR trilogy is my all time number one so I'm not raggin on it, but having read the Narnian Chronicles through several times, I really appreciated how close to the book they stayed. I mean the dialog was nearly spot on for goodness sakes. But excellent, excellent movie. If they pay that much attention to detail on the next ones that they do, this will be my new number one.

And now on to other things. I beat Mario Paper. Loved it. Though the final Bowser battles could have been better, but all in all a great game. Now comes the waiting for Oblivian. Speaking of which, I will be building a that new puter pretty soon now. About a month and a half away now. I am not going to be getting the case that I thought. I probably won't be getting a new case. Just making the old one work. That's okay though. This thing is going to rock when I get done anyway you look at it. I'm thinking AMD Athlon 64 3200+ 939 pin, 1 GB of GeIL Value DDR 400, Rosewill Value 400W PS, Asus A8N-SLI Mobo, and XFX Geforce 7800GT. I know, where is the SATA HD? MIA I'm afraid. I can't afford that yet. But maybe next year, or sooner if the need arises. I am also going to get some round cables and new case fans to help things out. I'm not going to OC this year. Next year or when ever I can afford a new cooler, I'll get one and start OCing. I might be able to get a little out with the stock cooling, but we'll just have to see what my case does with the heat. Where I have it at in my desk, I'll need to probably open up a hole in the back so as to exhaust some of that hot air. Again, we'll see. Well, I think that's all that's on the mind..... No!.... wait, I think there is something else.
Since no one really reads this anyway, I think I can leak it here and all will be well. My company is looking to launch a new internet service. Well, not us exactly, but we are going to be the alpha site for this new company. Its for a new wireless system. I'm not sure the standards or anything of that nature, I think maybe a type of WiMax, but don't quote me. All I know is, this isn't going to cost us anything, and it will be fully deployed on our system. It will accommodate 1.5 Mbps speeds and cost about thirty bucks a month. That is fast and cheap for this area. I haven't gotten to ask any questions yet, but I can bet that the latency will be comparable to DSL. Lord I hope so. I want this, and I want it bad. I'll let you know more as I know more. We're supposed to have this system up and running with in the next two weeks. I hope this doesn't fall through. Well, enough goofing on company time. And until next time, keep your stick on the ice.

A New Beginning...

Good Morning All, I am going to start trying to post every single day, with tech news, hacks, gaming, and the best part, scripture. I am a geek, and also a Christian. But above all I am a follower of Christ. I am a father, a husband, a friend, a coworker, a son, a grandson, a cousin, a liar, a cheat, a shameful mass, but because of my belief that Jesus died for me, and rose three days later, I am a son of the King, and a follower of the Most High. And though I am wretched, I will still go to heaven, not because of the things I have done, but because of the sacrifice Christ made for me on Calvary. Jesus, this is for you. Saw something cool on lifehacker today. They always have the cool hacks about well, just about anything. 6 Volt Battery Hack! You'll Be Amazed! - video powered by Metacafe Todays will save you money, trust me. Next on the agenda, the scripture of the day. I will be putting what the Lord lays on my heart here. Todays scripture comes from Jeremiah 17: 5 T...

Things to think about...

Weird day! I don't know why, but its weird. From the moment I woke up I knew that today would be odd. So far nothing has really said that, but I just feel weird. On my iGoogle page I subscribe to the Hack-A-Day widget, and love it. Most of the hacks are a little much for my liking. So that is to say, they take a chunk out of you day to make happen, depending on the project. But a few days ago is so simple, its sick. Its a multi-tool, or thats what the creator calls it. Its just a simple lock pit to me. Here's the vid: Someone lets the s-word out at the end, but you have to admit, that is cool. So simple, just so stinking simple. It just takes the right kinda mind to make it happen. Other musings now. My boss comes back today. Yea...... I hate this place. Okay, maybe not this place, but I am getting sick of it, and she doesn't help any either. She had neck surgery, so I hope she is doing well, I just wish she wouldn't come back. She just drive...

Hello! McFly!!!

Ah yes. The words heard round the walls of my mind as the Lord's voice calls. Don't ever think that God doesn't have a sense of humor, because you would be wrong. Why is it that people seem so hell bent on doing it themselves? Why do we want to rely on our own powers so much? I ask myself this question because I realize that I do it more often then not. And the answer is, because its our nature as humans. Thats part of the fall I guess. Once we realized the difference between good and evil, the flaw was placed in our hearts and then we "thought" we knew something. I realize that there is a higher power, and I believe in Him today. I realize that the downfall for me has been that I wanted to do it on my own. "Morpheus : Do you believe in fate, Neo? Neo : No. Morpheus : Why? Neo : Because I don't like the idea that I'm not in control of my own life. " That is one of my favorite quote, wanna know why? Of course you do. Its because it blu...
