  2. Google Fun

    Here is a fun thing to play around with, if you’re bored at 3am. Most Sony digital cameras start saving photos with the following name DSC00001.JPG; and a lot of people take these photos and upload them to the web, where the all-knowing, all-seeing Google later catalogs all of them. So by clicking this link you can see the first photo taken by someone with their new camera or newly formatted card for some cameras, this is what it looks like when thousands of Sony cameras lose their photo-virginity.
    Bonus fun, IMG_0001.JPG is the equivalent for Canon cameras. So, that will work too. Here’s CASIO, Pentax, Kodak, Konica, Fuji and Nikon. Using DSC as a search string in P2P programs also works great for turning up things on peoples hard drives they didn’t know they were sharing.

  4. Was that a Christ Like Men’s Retreat?

    Once again there is so much to talk about.

    I find myself really irritable when it comes to people mocking and being assholes. I know that sometimes I come off as an A-hole myself but truly I don’t mean it, and in most cases its joking with friends (comradery). But if you fall into the first two traits that I am irritable about you might just think of me as a hypocrite.

    Over the weekend I went to the mens retreat that the B puts on and I found myself Wednesday shopping for 50 guys; you might ask “why did you volunteer yourself to do this?”, well no one else wanted to and lately I have been trying to do things with a modest attitude, giving myself to things that noone else wants to do or I would normally never do (this is not a free pass to ask me to do something though). I would love to talk about this more but I think I will tomorrow because I am not going to talk about everything that I want to say today anyways. So Wednesday night I went to Costco with Daze Z. and my wife, we had a simple list of items to buy and it was stated to me “don’t worry, anything you don’t get because they don’t have or I did not give to you on the list we can get in town by the lake”, so I had no worries. It took forever to get everything and I want to give props to Dave Z. for wanting to lift the 30+ cases of water and Gatorade on the flatbed while I got other things. So as all the stuff was being totaled up I found that I had around $150 to $200 more to spend on snacks so I had about 5 minutes to get extra’s. I got a bunch of Jerky, Jellybeans, peanuts, protein bars, Gum and more. After the $1200 bill we spent a long time fitting all of this crap into our cars to take over to Mikee’s house. Then that turned out to be another pain.

    A lot happened that night but lets jump into next day…

    So, after hours of getting made fun of what I bought I was getting so upset. 3 hours of sleep and no patience for attacks that are reminiscent of high school is something that I cannot stand; I snapped, I cussed out the 5 main guys that were all on my case and I walked away. I wanted to seriously hit everyone in the face, and I probably would have left entirely if I had driven up in my own car but I didn’t. So I left thinking that I might have gotten my point across, granted the wrong way. I came back to camp after a little trip and the asssholes kept on going for the whole weekend, and what’s worse is that they told everyone to say something about my shopping, because I bought some stuff that might have been unnecessary or some stuff that I just couldn’t get. So through out the weekend people made little comments about, “did you get this”, “did you get that”, “good thing you got jelly beans and gum” and everything else that would push my buttons. I could not stand it so whenever someone said something I gave them a glare and said a little cuss word to prove a point that never got across and walked away and started to work or do something that was benefiting to the camp so I could be alone.

    For 4 days I heard this sh*t from people, mainly from the original A-Holes. So that just set the mood for me for the whole weekend. Normally I would have just escaped and did something somewhere else but I didn’t. I kept myself busy by being in charge of a boat for a couple days and at night by trying to help the cooks, even though they gave me a hard time too. And during Mafia (a game half the camp played until 3-4 in the morning each night) nothing was said because it’s a character/acting/role game. During the entire time I thought of a friend of mine that recently passed away and how he lived his life. He was an extraordinary person who helped everyone without any gratitude and wanting no praise, he was extremely humble from what I saw. He also was very miss understood because of his character and demeanor, and some times because of this he was made fun of, even though deep down he was blessed and he shared this blessing with everyone through his actions and commitment. I was thinking of him as inspiration to just roll with it, even though he may have not experienced anything like this, I wanted to work and still be a servant instead of hiding in the deepest corner. I know that I got angry and the worst of it came out but I tried and I tried very hard. I wonder how hard he worked not only for others but on himself.

    I love you Jun.

  6. Slashdot | Sky Captain and the Films of Tomorrow

    I was going through old headlines of Slashdot.com to catch up, when I came across this article Slashdot | Sky Captain and the Films of Tomorrow. Notice that they stole the title from an earlier post I had, :D.

  7. Blah Blah Blah

    The last couple of days have been so ruff for me. At work and at home. I have finally come to a point were I am working non-stop at my job, previously I had a couple hours to search around the internet and relax and do some research. Yes, research, otherwise it would be goofing off. Well I have had 3 days to get a week’s worth of work done and I am totally stressed out. Not only the fact that I have to get all this work done but I have to get these other projects done that have been handed to me from above. I wish my job description was not so vague, but I do get a check every other week and I do like what I do, So there is no need to complain; just vent.

    So at home I have been going through a lot: being an expectant Dad, planning a couple business projects, my website transition, and the never ending feeling that I need to improve the sites I admin. For example, Bridgeblogs.com, I changed the style the other night and it was never planned, Sara just said, “I hate that I can’t read this”. The web host transfer is being an ordeal with Spymac, a bunch of idiots. The biggest project I have is a software application for the job field I am in, Something I could loose money on, and out of all that it is the least thing that is bothering me right now, ironic. Oh man so much to do, and on my mind.

    I am totally rambling right now…but I do not care because I only have a couple minutes until I have my big quarterly planning meeting. After I sped to reread this I found there was no point to this post. Oh well…

    I am heading up for the men’s retreat tonight and I have to but food for 50+ guys for 3 days at Costco. That is going to be soo much food, it will be no fun at all. So I am off to shoot some crack to get me up to speed.

    To make this post meaningful I want to give out some thoughts and frustrations:
    Why the Fisk are we going to have movies at the men’s retreat?
    Why the Fisk cant we have Presidential candidate that is not rich? a normal person that worked at Wal-Mart a year ago.
    More to come got to go…

  8. FreeiPods.com

    I wish I had 3 more people to help. And yes it does work.

    Here’s a good cheat if your not already working on it. Netscape or Aol is one of the choices for purchase. You need a credit card to do this. Just have your friend sign up there, wait for the green…
    …light to show in about a day, then wait a week and call them to cancel the membership. That person will never get charged and the green light remains in effect! Try it out! Here is a the link; FREEiPODS.

  9. WorkRelease.org

    I got a new layout for WorkRelease.org and I love it. It actually is way more then just a template. I think you will see a lot of my sites look very similar to this in the future.

  10. Google Sensed

    I added google ads to my page recently and I was wondering if any one saw. :neutral:
    I recently signed up for the program so I could make some change hosting the comment system Nathan and I are working on. The new comment system is awesome but there are a couple things we definitely have to modify. You can see what I am talking about at Stryker’s blog. If you have a blogger account and you want to use the the comment system send me an email. I hate it when you can’t comment on a blogger blog when you really want to (Stacy, Martha, Jon).
    So back to the ads, I do not think I will make anything from them being on my blog and I do not think I get enough traffic to even think of getting it for this site alone, I am not that stupid. But I do like it here because I like to see what google thinks my readers want. Funny…MyDoom, and DMCA, I didnt know I was that tech. If you see an ad that you like go for it, no really DO IT (think of the dodgeball voice).
