Heros Season Premiered Tonight!

Posted in Personal on September 24th, 2007

I don’t watch a lot of TV. I mean every now and again I will sit down with the wife, spend some time with her, and watch some TV, but most of the time I live and breath some type of electronic device with buttons that I can push.

The show Heroes is one of those exceptions though. This show is just great. It leaves me hanging on the edge of my seat waiting for what is going to happen next. Hiro, has to be the greatest of them all or maybe just the comic relief, but I have to like his character the most. The other are just a little to serious for me. Hiro he is just funny and he gets caught in the strangest of places when he warps though time and space.

This is a show that you have to check out. If you have not, you should be able to catch the episode at NBC.com soon. For those of you that did catch the episode tonight what did you all think about it?

Win A Blog Contest

Posted in Personal on September 24th, 2007

It is starting to look like the Win a Blog contest is going to be a bust. No one, not one person has submitted an entry. I wonder if that is because it is not a tangible object like an iPod or something like that. Oh well. I will let it run and we will see what happens. Maybe I well get a few entries in and will be able to get away some of this storage space and bandwidth that I’m not using.

If you are wondering what contest I’m talking about you can look at it here.

What I have enjoyed most about Blogging

Posted in Personal on September 23rd, 2007

You know there comes a time when you have to reflect on what you are doing to make sure that it still aligns with you. Blogging is one of those outages for a lot of people. It is a stress reliever for me. It lets me put my thoughts down so that I can let them go out of my head. It clears the mind so that I can spend time doing other things with out thinking about what I have already blogged about.

I know that blogging has helped me to be able to vent some of my frustrations out. It could also help other that have the same frustrations. Most of the time it is just rants and ramblings that might not mean anything to anyone but me.

All in all, blogging has helped me to take time out of my life to do something else. I never really watched a lot of TV, but I was always playing video games. What is wrong with that? Nothing. I just wanted to feel like I had something productive to do with my time. Blogging could be like a game if I didn’t have goals while blogging. I enjoy seeing the stats climb. Another read this month means that I’m doing something right on my blog. If I don’t get one I don’t much care. I really am just doing this for fun, and sometimes I get to make a small amount of money at it as well.

What I have enjoyed about blogging, it has given me focus where I didn’t have focus before.

Amie Street Wednesday Code

Posted in Personal on September 21st, 2007

I have been working on a way to get all of the trackbacks from people who are participating in Amie Street Wednesday. I will try and make this as simple as possible. You will be able to view all trackbacks from AWS Trackbacks.

We need some guidelines. These will be simple and should be understood with out asking.

1. Pick out something form Amie Street that you enjoy, not based off of what you think others will think of you.
2. Volume must be set to 50. Amie Street defaults to 100. Set it half way so people have ear drums and speakers after visiting your page.
3. Set your player not to play at load. I personally think that nothing is more annoying than having music play on a page unless I choose to do so.

Place this code at the bottom of your Amie Street Post.


Amie Street Wednesday brought to you by Mouseclone You can get the code here

If you have already made some Amie Street Wednesday Post just edit them and drop this code at that bottom of the post. Please emjoy.
