I just did a back-end upgrade from Sarge to Etch.  It went pretty well.  I did take the extra time to read all the prompts.  Good thing too, otherwise my MySQL, Apache, Webalizer, and a few other config files would have been overwritten.

I also took the time to put up an Iwakuni Trader test site.  For starters, I added multiple pictures.  I’m going to try and spruce up the site over the next few weeks with a visual overhaul.  We’ll see how that goes.

I got a Wii! It’s a neat little console. The physical box is very slick and very small. It’s not much bigger than an external hard drive enclosure. There is a small cover on the front. Behind that, sockets for SD cards and the remote “re-sync” button. On the top/side (more on that in a bit), you’ll find another cover. Behind that you’ll find sockets for GameCube controllers and memory cards.

The following is a talk I gave in Church on Sunday. I was trying to go for a recursive, story-driven talk. I think it went okay. The lack of scripture references was probably bad, but I hate scripture-chasing anyway.

It’s been a long time since I’ve posted an update.  My medication was really fucking me hard.  I’m going to relax a bit this weekend and let you all know how things are going.

Oh, and I got a Wii!

I got my FP heli flying (mostly) with full separates. She’s a bit tail heavy and twitches around a bit more than I’d like, but I can live with it.

Work on my heli has progressed slowly.  I’ve been spending a lot of time on Iwakuni Trader and other things.  Plus, my medication has really sapped my energy.
