Not a lot has been going on lately cause I have either been at work working, or I have been at home working on site stuff. Lately the site stuff has been pretty interesting I am learning alot about tracking where people are coming from what they read and what they like. It is all pretty cool to me.
Unfortunately my computer is dieing. The main hard drive on my main computer is starting to fail. It will eventually give up entirely. I am hoping to side step that issue, by purchasing a new hard drive this weekend. The probelm is that my computer is one of the many machines that comes with windows pre installed and no real windows disk to be heard of. So what am I supposed to do? Call up tigerdirect and say hey my computer failed way past warranty send me a copy of windows? It is such crap that they DRM so much of technology that it is just harder to use. I own a copy of windows that came with this machine, but I cant use it. I tried to watch a DVD a minute ago and a weird error i get once in awhile on my computer said DVD copyright error can't play media... I tried a different player and it couldnt play media because the copy protection on the disc does not allow it to be played while the TV out on my card is enabled... I DONT EVEN HAVE A TV OUT CARD. Seriously Screw the industry for making everything freaking impossible. I am thinking about not comming up with a windows solution and to instead, install an alternative OS like mandrake, red hat, or linspire which I got a free copy of during their free giveaway. Who knows with Open office 2.0, firefox, and Gimp... may I really do have little left keeping me on windows...
Last but certianly not least Scott dropped by for just a few hours. It was cool him and his friend from Boston Mike had 4 hours between plane flights in Denver so Dom, Nicole, and I met up with them for dinner... had some laughs had a chat and then took him back on his way to the airport. It was good to see you Scott...

i had a blast too, thanks for coming out to the airport and picking us up - it's always good to see you and dom and nicole. have fun with your mom while she's out. i'd go up to estes park for a day - there's alot of short hikes that might be fun since you could talk and it'd be pretty.
