Up and running in Linux

I have a dual boot setup working now. I transfered all my email and music, etc. to Linux.

Transitioning from Windows

I have decided that I no longer want to use windows as my primary operating system. I have had a second computer with linux on and off for many many years. I have decided that I need t transition for good.

I will start off with a dual boot setup - Windows Xp and Ubuntu. If tings go according to plan I will eventually drop the windows portion.

Hopefully things go smooth. I'm rebooting now to start the process.

WNIT Championship Sold Out!

It only took 12 hours for the WNIT championship game to sell out. Fortunately I bought 6 tickets last night after the cowgirls won in triple overtime.

I'm looking forward to being one of the 15,000+ fans on Saturday!

WNIT Final 4 and 1 week until baseball

The cowgirls will be playing at home in the WNIT final 4 tomorrow (Wednesday). They have has some very large crowds - over 11,200 at the last game. I plan on attending.

The Cubs baseball season kicks off in less than 6 days now.

I had a job interview over the weekend in Lexington. I thought it went well. I also got to help my brother and his family move to a new house. It is a very nice house, but their basement flooded already. They will have to get some new carpet for the downstairs.

Bracket Madness

It is that time of year again - every sports site on-line is having a bracket challenge. I have filled out 10 different brackets. I'm sure I won't do well, but thats ok.

In other news McClain, head coach of Wyoming was fired on Monday. I'm happy to see the program take a new direction.

The cowgirls play in the NIT on Thursday.

Dropkick Murphys

I went to Denver last night and saw the Dropkick Murphys in concert. It was a good show - lots of fun. I am a bit banged up today because of it, but thats ok.

Wyoming plays in the first round of the MWC tourney today (mens side) the womens team won yesterday. We play Air Force this afternoon at 3:30.

Rumors are flying about whether Wyoming will fire McClain. Hopefully we keep winning no matter what choice is made. Personally I am ready for a new basketball coach, but will continue to support the pokes either way.
