I’m hooked
One of my Christmas gifts from my brother was a book, One Bullet Away: The Making of a Marine Officer

Norton Anti-Virus Beta
I am currently testing Norton Antivirus 2007 beta for Windows Vista. Up until I started running Vista I used Mcafee Viruscan, mainly because it is free as a paid AOL user. Not that I run their software much, but I do keep it for my Grandmother’s use as it is her only Internet access. Mcafee, or at least the version that AOL uses, is not compatible with Windows Vista, so I started looking at different AV products awhile back. The main thing for me is that I needed it to be non-intrusive. The only thing I want it to do is catch viruses. I don’t need all of that other security crap. Either it is built in to Windows, or I use other products that I like better.
I haven’t had any problems with the beta version I am running (it’s been installed for about a week now), so as long as it stays that way I will stick with it. I like Norton 2007, and as soon as this trial beta version times out I will most likely purchase it from these guys. I checked the prices against what Norton charges in their online store, and they are comparable.
This is (hopefully) a paid advertisement.

Anchorage
Our friend sent me this picture as well, I guess she wasn’t sure if my wife’s email address was still the same or not. In the email she said “imagine seeing this every day”.
I used to consider moving to Alaska. A beautiful place once you get past the tundra and mosquitoes. I love the picture and do want to visit, but I don’t want to move to Alaska anymore. Something to do with getting older. Now I want to move south, somewhere near the beach. Key West sounds just about right.

New Years Resolutions
Normally we (I should I here) make resolutions every year, some to be kept, but most to be broken. This year I decided to lower the bar a bit and make sure that I had resolutions that I know I can keep, thus feeling better about myself this time next year. Thus, in no particular order, here they are.
1. Smoke more
2. Cuss more
3. Get fat
4. Make less money
5. Work more hours
Here’s to the new year and hoping that I can exceed my expectations over the coming months.
