What a lovely day!

It is really nice out today. So nice that I think I'll go out after dinner to a nice little spot in my woods where I have a hammock and I enjoy spending time. It's a little prayer garden of sorts, and it's a nice place to spend time. Thats one of the things I like about summer, me wasting time walking around in the woods, reading, meditating, walking, what have you. Nature is a wonderful thing.

Day 2! and Me.

Well, here I am again. Nothing really eventful happened today at school, except b dex gave me a CD which is pretty all right, as far as rockabilly goes (I like it). That, and there was another health guest speaker in health today, who told us about the horrors and laws of underage drinking. Blah blah, I'm not going to drink, smoke, do drugs or anything like that EVER. Seriously. I choose not to &*^% myself up in order to "feel good" or "have a good time" or worst of all "fit in". That's just stupid. I hate it when people get mad at me or being straightedge-ish. It's a personal choice, and a pretty good one at that.

Uh, ok?

Well, in order to be a cool kid like everybody else, I have a blog. Mind you, I didn't go out of my way to do this. I was already registered at Applefritter, and one of the neato features was a blog. So here mine is. Or at least until I get my POS server running, hosting my POS website, with an equally shitty blog.

black stripe needs a job...

...but what? i'm thinking along the lines of home automation--x-10 remote modules, using the pBook 170 as the brains of the outfit. i know that you can run x-10s off of system 7, but is it even really feasible? i'll take my question to the forums once i get the gumption to do it.

iMac goodness and other fun stuff.

Last weekend I was at ole S.E. and found an iMac that everyone claimed was "dead". Unabashed by the claims made by everyone there and lured by the $10 "get it off our pallets, please" price (actually they like Macs there, they sell for a better price...) I took it home.

Genius Bar

What the heck is a Genius Bar!? :?

Hooray

Finally I got my hands on a Laserwriter IIg motherboard. This thing is so much more useful than the old IINT board I had in there before, and I haven't even dug up my Ethernet transceiver yet.

First generation imac

I am in need of finding a first generation imac (it doesn't have to work...) to build a macquarium :ebc: . If you have any I am willing to pay a reasonable sum for it!

iPod Hacks

Hey, does anybody know about any interesting iPod hacks? I am already bored of my plain white 40GB iPod. I want interface, and external hacks.
TY! :macos:

More hardware...

I went shopping at ole Surplus Exchange on Sat. and ran across some nice guys. Alex, who is well know in there, introduced me to Jack. Jack offered me a Sun SBUS frame buffer for my SS1000 for just $5. He'ss got an SS1000 too, so he knows what it's like to own a ~100lbs. computer. :coolmac: I called him tonight to see about picking it up, and he offered me an IBM P70 (17" workstation monitor for RS/6000s, etc.) for another $5. Wow. Back on Sat. Alex offered me a *FREE* 20" Sun monitor.
