Spent most of the day rebuilding my system, so have not had a chance to get online. Will probably spend the next couple of evenings reinstalling apps, may not get a chance to post.

New Forum
Just added a couple of new forums to the message bases. One for Legend of the Green Dragon, and a requests forum for the BBS. Feel free to visit and post.
Homeseer
did something to crash my HA server. If you’ve tried to access the HA pages or weather station info, sorry about that. Took an hour or so to restore from backup.
BBS
Took down the web portion of the BBS. I will replace it with phpBB to use for my forums. I have started work on the BBS itself. It is available via telnet at shadowscope.com. When I took the board down three years ago, I had no real backup to speak of except for a mirrored hard drive, which is now bad, so everything is pretty much the default settings and menus for the time being.
Mindless
Solitaire. What a mindless game. $5000 piece of electronic equipment. P4 1.8. Over 1 gb Ram. 128 meg vid card. TV tuner. Serial card. HA software. Firewire. USB 2.0. CD Burner. 15″ Flast screen LCD. Custom case with lots of huge fans, Blinking LED’s, side window with inside lighting.
What am I doing? Listening to 30 year old music and playing frigging solitaire. what a loser. Think it’s time to eat lunch.

Government
“In general the art of government consists in taking as much money as possible from one class of citizens to give to the other.”

Galactic Dust Storm enters Solar System
The Sun’s shifting magnetic field is set to focus a decade-long storm of galactic dust grains towards the inner Solar System, including Earth. Check it out here.
Stuff
It was a very long day at work. I’ve been back in ops for several weeks and still trying to get used to it. It is a very different world in the restaurants than it was working in the IT department. I had almost forgotten how URGENT everything is. You have to cram 15 hours of work into 9 or 10, go home, and start again. There is always something that needs to be done. Basically just have to get the big stuff first and worry about little stuff when there is free time.
On another note, I think I am going to try and create another skin suite. It has been a couple of years since I have done any skinning, so not even sure what I want it to look like. I may post screenshots here as it develops.

Hosted sites
Stephanie, Chris, and Anna all have sites up being hosted here. Anna’s has been updated very little as I have not had time to sit down with her and work on it yet.
