BlogMy good friend Jeremy (Lomar) and his Fiance Angela
were married today and threw a great reception. Sergio and Bon flew in from Portland for the event to join countless other fellow Novi High School graduates in congratulating the couple, many of whom I had not seen for over five years. We had a great
bachelor party two days earlier and it was good to see everyone again. Angela: welcome to Clan Lomar!
Per request of the active members of Plasma Team,
PlasmaTeam.Net is now running from this server. The website will become the central hub of the group, consisting of various members from different parts of the country. The team specializes in random movie and musical productions but also engage in random activities with a comedic goal. It's destined to become a Google favorite, and is already endorsed by
SBK Radio.
While driving my
Cougar at lunch today I heard a strange whining noise from the engine. Fearing the worst, I pulled over and found nothing visibly wrong with it. Still, the whine persisted so I decided to drop to third and floor it. The definition of anemic greeted me and my boost gauge mockingly told me I was not generating any pressure over manifold vaccuum. A call to
Vortech revealed yet another revision in the jackshaft/compressor connection was made to prevent what happened to my supercharger kit. The shaft runs from my accessory belt to the compressor and connects using splines that had finally worn off and was now spinning in the compressor socket. Unfortunately the kit is out of warranty, but fortunately I was offered a discount on the necessary repair work. Oh well, at least I don't
drive a Honda.
The latest
critical updates from Microsoft were released today and consequently this server got a reboot. I took the opportunity to image the system partition and noticed the last reboot was 2 months ago so I thought I'd screen cap the network status:
Lastnight
Lomar, was asked to do an interview for
SBK Radio about his Anti-Brad and other popular songs. Somehow the songs made their way to Texas and have a significant following in the area. Lomar, his fiance, Ryan and I huddled around my computer for the interview, followed by a live performance of the Anti-Brad song courtesy of Lomar and Ryan. Afterwards we decided to go for a beer run and
steal an ice cream sign to dedicate to his live performance. Look for the DVD in stores!

About a month ago I started singing the latest idiotic (and blatently targeted) McDonalds slogan over and over in my head. It was on it's way to being etched into my subconsciousness when I found myself singing it only while debugging code. The self defense mechanism of my mind had turned the evil jingle into a sarcastic commentary. Now I consciously chant it when something goes wrong and everyone gets the joke. While the
Quizno's commercials stuck with the public because they were flat out funny, the McDonald commercials stick in your head because you're left struggling to find a point. Extremes are definitely the most effective marketing tool.
Today was yet another blustery day, but instead of hiding inside we decided to
go fly a kite! Unfortunately the string we used was not suited for the wind speed and broke frequently. Thanks to Melissa the
kite repair turnaround time was minimal. We decided to
head to the dollar store for some upgraded string in preperation for the next
blustery day. When we returned, we found
an exciting addition to the favored spot for random pooping.
