No actually, I proudly finished transfering my ftpserver, webserver, and IRC logging over to the new shuttle box, and for the first time this semester, turned off the mini-desktop computer. There’s seriously a very eerie silence coming from that corner of the room. It almost hurts my ear. Heh, ah well. Nice new computer. Purrr…..
So I get out of EE333 lab an hour late at 10:00, and get on Russ’s bus in our first Blizzard of the year. Knowing that we have a ton of newbies driving night shifts, I offer my services and end up just taking over the green minibus right in front of him. Maybe sliding [...]

That was almost an impulse buy. Well I’m tired and… ‘ya know. So I went to DSM and got my hard drive earlier tonight. And I just placed an order for the case and chip on newegg. All that’s left is memory and I have a brand new computer system. Yeesh that was quick. Ah [...]
Interesting bussing today. I hit a squirrel. :-( but it was already dead. Although it’s interesting to note how you hardly feel a small furry animal squish under your bus tires. Just a soft, little "bump," and that’s it. I also saw a double-padidle (sp?)-beetle. It was missing one headlight and the opposite fog light. [...]
