I get my internet connection at home back up on Wednesday, then on
Thursday my web host goes down for some reason, so no updates. Crazy
stuff.
In other news, I’m starting on my secretive project. I’m using a program called FreeMind
to map out the design and it really works well. A guy at work showed it
to me. It’s simple to use, but it’s not just for software design. I’ve
also used it for figuring out which classes I would need to take if I
pursue my master’s degree. I’m working on a new map now that will show
goals and plans. Pretty cool program.
To continue my rambling, my wife bought me a new whiteboard for the
house last weekend. Not just any whiteboard though, this thing is eight
feet by four feet. It’s really just wall paneling, but it works great
as a whiteboard. Then better thing is that it’s only about $15, instead
of $50-60 for a comparable size true whiteboard. We drilled it into the
wall in my office and it works great.
Finally, my bracket is currently ranked 171,387th
in the country on ESPN’s Tourney Challenge. I was ranked 1st for the
first two or three days, which is longer than usual. I had all my Final
Four teams until last night when Gonzaga lost. However, I’m tied for
second in a KSU fan group.
I’m curious to know who the 1st place entry is in the group, because
the name on it is the same name as my high school
football coach. Could be funny it it was really him.
UPDATE: It really was him. I sent an email to the user account and he
replied back this morning. His son is a little farther down the list
too. Amazing how small the internet makes the world sometimes. Always
good to hear from someone in my hometown too.
Add me to your reader!
