Still Alive

Been a while since I have blogged, but I have a good reason, I have a new job!  I am now a manufacturing engineer at a company called Grayhill.  In case you didn’t know, in real life, I am an electronics engineer.  I have been working here for about a week now, and it has been pretty interesting so far.
On the computer front, my wife bought me, as a present for getting a new job, a DVD burner.  It is an NEC dual laywer drive.  For anyone who doesn’t have one, spend the 70 bucks and buy a DVD burner.  If you use it for just backups, it is worth it.  I have also figured out how to shrink DVD9 to DVD5 movies.  I will post a tutorial later under the Linux section, since I have no idea how to do it under windows.

On the political front, yeesh, just as I thought.  The second term of the shrub will somehow, be worse than the first.  200 billion for Iraq, and nothing for Amtrak or the needy childern in the U.S.A.  What at sick joke.

Well, enough of depressing stuff, I am enjoying my much shorter trips to work and more money.
