More Tunes, Less Blog..
I finally took down the blog section on the TrueDetectives.com site after all the abuse. I tried taking the site down for a few weeks, but as soon as I put it back up the abuse started again, so down it goes. Maybe I will replace it with a message board who knows. I DID finally get around to creating some more MP3's from tapes and adding them to the site (TD's site). Go check it out.

Good weekend
Got a lot in this past weekend. Saturday we took my daughter to the new park in town that opened, where she had a blast. Then we went out for lunch at the great german place. I got the lawn mowed before the rain and then we had a very good dinner. Sunday we did some shopping for home items in the morning then looked at a house in the historic district and then went out to lunch. After lunch we took my daughter to another park, then went to BJs (bulk store) on the way home and ran into a little girl and her family we know from some of my daughter's art classes and those two kids ran all over the place together. Had another good fish dinner and just DROPPED after. Busy, but fun.

If it's too loud...
Yeah, it's too loud and I'm TOO old. Heard my old guitar players band's stuff from facebook and can't say that I appreciate it at all. Sorry 'do.

Fix Windows Holes!!
OK, I have 5 PC's at home, 2 of which thankfully are dual boot XP/Ubuntu. I have antivirus running on all the Windows OS's, not free ones, premium ones I researched. When I was running virus scans last night 4 of the 5 PCs had viruses. One of them which is only used to visit kids sites had the worst ones that crippled the browsers. Now, I run windows because I do some gaming and develop windows software for my job, but if I have to keep spending this much effort to keep the machines clean, I'm going to convert all but my server and my workstation (which is dual boot) to Ubuntu and be done with it. My god, if a company with as much cash as MS can't plug their security holes then they should at LEAST provide the BEST antivirus software available for their OS, FOR FREE!

Good weekend
Went to my parents Saturday so the kids could go in the pool. Today, even though my wife is sick, I had a pretty good day. Took my daughter shopping with me this morning to the bulk items club, then came home and mowed the lawn. After that I took my son to pick up a few groceries. After lunch I played with the kids for a while until they napped. Now they're watching a video until I start dinner.

Vacation Time
The three day weekend is over, but I have two more days off. I planned to spend it at the beach today with my kids, but I came down with a very nice fever last night. I got a lot of work done over the weekend around the house, but if I'd know about this I would've taken the kids somewhere fun sunday.

Level 30
I hit level 30 in World of Warcraft this weekend with my main character. Finally, I HAVE A HORSE. Movement is much faster now. I also re-installed Guild Wars, which I really want to get used to. The graphics are smoother than WoW, but the game play is a little different and the movement is sometimes a bit distracting. My head keeps comparing it to WoW and if I could get over that I'm sure it would be as fun as WoW is.

No painting this weekend
Looks like rain this weekend so I will hold off on the painting. I'll try and take the kids to the zoo early so they can have some fun.

64 Bit Blues
Well 64bit operating systems may have better performance than their 32 bit relatives, but try finding drivers and vpn clients! Not happening. I'll stick with it on my PC since XP 32 bit won't see all 4gb of ram, but I think I'll have to run a virtual to connect for work.

The 4-0 was nice
Had a very nice birthday weekend for my 40th. Went to the beach Saturday morning, read my book, walked around and picked up shells for my daughter. Then I came home had a nice hour or so with my kids and then went and saw Wolverine. Good flick. Then my wife and I went out to dinner at a nice steakhouse and I had a good rib eye and a couple gin and tonics. Today we went to my parents house for mothers day and they surprised me with a small 40th birthday party. My mom made my favorite meal from when I was a kid, lamb chops and we had CARVEL ice cream cake. Very fun, my wife rocks for setting that up.
