As usual, my family and I did the quiet new year. We don't celebrate it really... Never have... But the kids had a chance to sneak over to our neighbor's house where they were greeted by dozens of neighborly people and a fireworks show. I'm not talkin' about corner convenience store type fireworks, my neighbor goes all out. I would have taken photos but I was watching "The bucket list" with my wife...
Yes, I had to fight back the tears. It was a good movie...
There was no drinking this year. Not even a glass, cause low and behold I have a person on a transplant list who can get called at any time. So I spent the better part of the new years online chatting with some of my friends, including Chris Pirillo who isn't a direct friend per say but I've known him since his ICQ days Ohhhhhhhh must have been a half century ago when he wasn't famous, way before all his television stardome. Somehow he had forgotten those days when I hadn't. A true sign of becoming famous must be that you forget the conversations you had earlier on in life. Anyhow he's got an awsome little geek hideout at http://geeks.pirillo.com you should check it out...
Installed ventrilo on my laptop, and ubuntu server edition on a PIII 600Mhz miniHP pc so I can spark up the ol' mail server again... I may be taking a new shift on the whole internet monopoly thing here pretty soon and I want to be damn sure that my business maintains it's ability to send/recieve email...
New years resolutions? Hmmm I don't do that sort of thing but I do have personal goals. I always follow through on my personal goals, in fact I can honestly say that I have never faultered on one yet in my 37 years of existance... That should do just nicely, not really in a proper blogging mood at 7:54am.
Off I go to make sure my son, who just left the bathroom, didin't pee on the seat. Knuckle heads sometimes they are...
CHeers!
