Rancid Rocks and Go Cubs

I got to see Rancid in concert again this past Saturday at the Filmore in Denver. It was a pretty good show. I am Ghost opened, then Murphy's law played a short set followed by MxPx. Rancid was very good as usual. I'm excited for their new album come september.

The Cubs are in first place by 1 game going to Milwaukee for a 4 game set. Hopefully the bats will get hot and the pitching will remain as it has been recently. Next week at this time I will be in Chicago watching the Cubs play. I hope it will be watching the First Place Cubs play.

Hello from my new computer

Well I got my new computer all put together and 64 bit Linux installed. It is much much faster than my old one. I still need to transfer data, and I am contemplating making it a dual boot machine. Pictures to come.

Microsoft Certified Professional


I took and passed my first Microsoft test today. I am now officially a Microsoft Certified Professional. I get to use this fancy logo on my business cards, and techcaddies website now. The test was a little easier than I thought it would be. I'll probably study and be taking more tests in the coming months.

My computer parts have arrived. I may start building tonight. My phone still is not here yet and I am getting impatient.

New Beck album and more

I've listened to the new beck album a few times now. I like it OK. I haven't picked out any favorite tracks yet.

My cell phone broke, so I have ordered a new one. I hope it arrives today. My new phone is a blackberry curve.

I will be building a new computer this week too. My parts have started to arrive. I should get them all by Tuesday. I may take some photo's of the process for fun - if so I'll post them here.

Vacation is over

Here are the results:

We went to the beach in South Carlsbad, Ca. and camped.

We played in the water, and boogie boarded.
We relaxed at the beach too.

We roasted and ate hot dogs at our camp on the beach.

We saw some sites around San Diego such as the Temple.

We also saw local wildlife.
After 4 nights at the beach we went to Tucson, Az.
I painted on the tree in the girls playroom.
I painted a bat.
We swam in the new pool.

... but then I had to go home.
