Okay, so the last time I went rollerblading I did just under 13 miles. Averaged something like 8 mph along the route. This time? I was only able to do just over 6 miles, but had a moving average of exactly 10 mph by the time I got back to my car. It’s definitely different to skate in 90°F (32°C for you power-of-ten-folk) as opposed to 70°F (21°C) weather. Wow. I was sweating while moving. I think that’s a first in as long as I can remember…

Now it’s time to remove spyware from my Dentist’s computer. Whee!

Another thing for sale… Is anyone interested in a Netpliance I-Opener? It’s the original version, already hacked, with a 1GB hard drive installed, ready to go, USB network adapter, etc. I’ve also got a mouse/keyboard splitter so that you can use any PS/2 mouse and keyboard with it. Getting the hard drive in there required replacing the heatsink and doing some ninja-type mounting and fitting. It’s definitely not stock, but *is* ideal.

I just want $100 for it… In the original box, also with original keyboard and docs and firmware intact, etc. It works just fine, I just have no need for it anymore.

Otherwise, it’s going up on eBay, too.

Oh, in case you don’t know what one of these is, it’s a single panel computer/display with a modem, USB port, parallel port, etc. Great for running Linux or Windows 98 or whatever else you feel like on it.

For Sale!

Hey everybody… I finally got some things listed on eBay today, so I thought I’d post the links here:

· VNV Nation – Advance And Follow v2 2 – Sealed New
&middot PAiA FatMan Analog Synthesizer – New – Assembled – MIDI

Oh, and yes, that’s the synth I was building a few months ago. It works great and all, but with all musical gear I acquire, I just can’t use it.

Oh, I’ve also got a Xircom PCMCIA 10/100 network card available, if anyone can use it. I’ve got no use for it, so if you’ve got a use for it, let me know.

Yep, that’s Afie, my parents dog. I’m watching after her for the weekend while my parents are up north visiting my grandparents.

Wow, we just got nailed with an absolutely amazing storm. I managed to get some pictures as the pea-sized hail was falling. At one point there was a crack of lightning which made me jump and left my ears ringing. Wow.

Photos Here.

Yeah. So I get back to work and as pull up to my car, the rear view mirror is hanging by the wire. Suck. I guess it let go… Well, a quick trip to Murray’s on the way home provided a $4 mirror adhesive kit, and a bit of time got the mirror rehung. Sucks, but another one of those need-to-do-it things. Bah.

Well, I just emailed the Shelby Township Historical Committee to offer them some free webhosting. Currently they have their site hosted at Tripod, with the rather unprofessional URL http://shelbyhistory.tripod.com. The photos for the site are also hosted at an ImageStation URL which requires you to log in. Interestingly, the login they provide for you has rights to add/change/delete photos. Not good.

I just offered them some free hosting, a copy of Gallery, email, etc. You know, the normal.

I sort of hope they take me up on it, as it’d be neat to host something on that scale.

Does anyone who reads this have any experience with Jabber? I’m trying to get a third party client (for use on my home machine) to connect with the corporate servers here, and it’s just. not. working.

So, please? Anyone who can throw some ideas my way?

Thanks!
