HOLLA! west coast representin' for teh 612

sweet robocop leg!

this last year really took a toll on my health.... but my wealth is an all time high. The only debt I have is the house we live in, but that's nearly 25% paid based on market price for it. I should also say the wifes student debt is still out there too and growing, but that I'm not so concerned about.

TY there shooter. Another year come and gone. Woot.

did you take the AMG for a burfday drive? I thought you couldn't yet and were still all layed up cast style.

".....and on this episode of BLING GONE BAD...."

Skillz bro. And happy burfdayz! My wife to me to teh Fogo last nigth for my BD. Happy Birthday mang, didn't realize. TY, sir! I called in the good weather yesterday. You can thank me for that one. Today, it *ain't* my fault. I hope I will get my countertops in soon. I have to take mine off for them to measure. That will be the best BD present evar.

I lol'ed at the USSA comment Sean. Unfortunately it's getting to be more and more true. I was just reading about the overall "value" of the american dollar from 1770 to todays dollaw and you can see the HUGE drop in value. Mainly after the mid 1800's... federal banking involvement anyone.... Weird how that works out. Where are the Howard Roark's?

when you have an A as the first letter of your name.... you have to realise, but dialing will be a-plenty

I fail at health.

I lost a pant size yet gained 20 lbs, confirmed that I have arthritis, and that it's very possible my wife produces more testosterone than I do. Super.

i got me a huge crock of baked pasta going in the oven now... Cannot wait.

nothing sure yet. A friend of mine is a rep for a security software/hardware company, and I have been picking his brain along with looking at home and buisness trends. Ultimately I want something unmanned than notifies me personally, and make it whole house integrated A/V etc. Another friend used to be a director at a one of the big comercial manned security places, and he would get a ton of people he dealt with asking about recomendations for home/private systems. The best security bar none are humans. They cost to much, and you can't trust them. Dogs are #2, but not what everyone wants. I want a 3rd option.... Exactly what I am looking at doing right now. Security system that integrates with Home Automation. For instance, if a zone is breached I'd like to be able to turn on the stereo play back a wave file, turn on the lights, and generally frighten away the person entering. At the same time the system has to be flexible so that while home I can use the automation portion to make my life nicer. That second part is where is gets tough. From what I understand it would end up being one general outer "shell" program, that would basicaly Administrate all the other programs. I'm no coder so my words are probably wrong but that's how I understanding If UI/GUI and automation options are not there, then it's worthless. I could just have 6 different systems running automation, security, climate, audio and video. Right now, I haven't seen anything run well. If my roomie codes up something modular enough though I will be happy. something to run all systems from a touch screen. Then I don't have to teach the wife anything. Just tell her what to touch. HomeSeer, CQC and HAL are all supposed to be able to do all the above. By default many of these require the Elk security systems, but hell I don't care what it is as long as it works reliably. i think yall should just go talk to bill gates his got a lil system in his house He's outdated... I wanna be razors edge brand new yo! I would like to have some form of cctv type system, but run it to the internets too if I want. Check on my shtuff while on the go. Find out which cat keeps chewing on the plants!

latest fire fox on a vista machine.3.0.6 is what I show. No pics for me either.

I've been working on that too. My roomate is a programmer. We have been working on building a custom software/network, and maybe if he's talented enough market it for sale. It would be insanely modular in program terms to handle all the work I we want to get out of it.

I used to have 72 hours being my normal work week. Quit that job. after I did the math, the hourly rate wasn't all that great. I could have picked up a part time on top of a normal 40 a week, and made the about the same give or take 5-10k, so why bother.

A friend of mine had a server crash too, and while I was at work, our network was down all friday also....

B7. Best tip is to read. READ READ READ stop asking for free information that is already out there. READ more and more.

that is an earned ban. Sometimes I think this forum is too leinient

way to go Jon. Good post for a guy who needs it.

I agree with this post wholeheartedly. As for me, well when I am not in a happy mood I am just a prick, or an asshole. Same idea, different words. I'm drunk, so I'm can't really talk

Pretty bad when that happens, and it seems to happen a lot. Glad I don't have a manager anymore I have a micro-manager. Also known as a Lieutenant I wouldn't mind that if they were competiant. I answer to 4-5 managers/supervisors. WTF??? get the memo about the TPS reports? Missed that memo. And as to your WTF? I am in the Active Duty Military. MY wtf was to the shitty people I answer to. I knew you are active. All is well here!
