Right of Way

March 23rd, 2007

I am tired of people stopping unnecessarily to let me go. When I am on my bike riding on the Fort Fraser trail, people at the Bartow Hospital and Bartow Ford stop as I come up. I have a little stop sign. They have right of way. They are in a big metal cage. I [...]

Hobby

March 18th, 2007

I am getting closer to getting into my office. The walls are almost done and ready for paint. Once the paint is up, I can build some shelves and start moving all of my stuff into the office. That means I will have an pretty empty room here at the house. I want to keep [...]

Above me was blackness with hundreds of CAT5e, fiber, and grounding cables. There was a 1.5 megawatt generator, self resetting circuit breakers, and 6 telcos. [...]

Beware the Triangle

March 6th, 2007
