I posted my first Essay today. It was to be on a Hero, and we are to explain why he/she was a hero in our eyes. I didn't want to choose a military hero, as there are thousands of those, I wanted someone different. I chose Bill Gates. With all the volunteer work and donations he gives to the American School system, he is a hero in my eyes.
WIsh my luck!
Monday I start my last two classes (English & Psychology). After this, I'll have a college degree. Whatever that means... I'll have another piece of paper to hang on the wall. Now, my kids don't have an excuse!
Stumbled upon this cartoon:
Thought this was hilarious!!! Of course, since I'm not much of a C++ programmer, I would do something like this:
Sub airplanes() Range("A1").Value = "I will not throw paper airplanes in class" Range("A1").Copy Range("A2:A500").PasteSpecial End Sub
throw this in a spreadsheet then email it to the teacher!!! Ok, so this method wouldn't be as cool as the pic, but it would work and save time! Wonder how you could do this in BASH...
Fellow Readers... (Whomever that may be...)
Just some updates. July was a busy month for me. My little baby had to have surgery, so we were flown Hawaii where Doctors at Tripler Army Medical Center (TAMC) operated on my little girl. The surgery went well, and we are very thankful.
It was very nice to visit Hawaii, but I was glad, as always, to get back home. My Dad was fortunate enough to make it over to be with Audrey and I during the surgery. This was the first time he had flown since around 1966. Airports and aircraft have changed dramatically since then, huh?
I'm back to work now, and actually looked forward to coming to work for the first time in a long time. The weather is raining, as usual this time in the pacific. August is just around the corner, and school will be starting.
Sabayon Linux 3.5 was released while I was gone. I'm downloading it now, and will install it when it's done downloading or later on this week. Probably won't be done downloading until later on this week. My ISP sucks over here.
As far as my website goes, I plan on redoing it once again. It needs a new look. I'm pretty much tired of the look. And since I have more time now, I plan on hand coding my new site. As soon as I come up with a color scheme, I'll get busy.
Enough for now... I'll try to post more later and include some photo's I took in Hawaii...

Greetings readers, as if anyone actually reads this…
I made a C in Geology. Made an A on both my Final and my Capstone. I’m so glad that class is over. Just thought I would share that with you. YAY!!
Once again, it's been a while since I've posted anything. I've been staying extremely busy. I'm taking 2 more classes, as I've mentioned before and the Algebra class is whoopin' my buttocks. I thought I was good in math but guess not that good. Alot has happened since my last post. I’m also working on another website for the LRS Spouse Group. http://www.35lrsspouse.com I’ve almost got template done, just need to finish it up and add content, then troubleshoot any errors.
First of all, I recently got rid of my Pajero. Guy payed me 10,000 yen ($100) and drove it away to a junk yard. Same week, I found a 1992 Toyota Surf (4Runner) and paid $1500 for it. It’s an awesome vehicle, but the v6 uses more fuel than my previous 4 cylinder diesel.
Our new Baby Audrey is growing like a weed. She's over 1 month now and is eating more, pooping more, and sometimes crying more. She was recently diagnosed with craniosynostosis, which is where (basically) the skull grows back too fast and causes deformity. Now, luckily Audrey’s condition isn’t too bad, where it affects her brain, but still requires surgery. I have an appointment in Trippler Army Medical Center in Hawaii in July. The Government only pays for one person to fly over, which is going to be me, so if my wife goes, we’re going to have to pay for it out of our pocket. I can’t really afford it, but I’m going to try my best to get this done. Enough abou that.
Planning an offroad adventure / camping trip this weekend… Just an over nighter in the mountains. Can’t wait to get out there. The kids are really looking forward to going, and to be honest, so am I.
Enough for now. I’m tired of typing…
