I have a few projects that I want to get done around the house, the biggest being networking the house.  I am going to call on Scott’s brother Dave for his expertise, and most likely coax him into doing most of the work with some good drinks.  Besides that, Casey and I want to setup our sound system to have everything working well.  Lastly, we are going to setup a file server to house all of our music and movies so we can just update one computer instead of trying to mirror things we both like on our individual ones.

Technology wise, I am trying to get going on an idea or two that Justin and I came up with awhile back involving Tulsa and T-shirts (it’s two different ideas).  I am creating the databases so it will convince Justin to spend some time on the project too (as to not look like I’m being a slacker and to get some progress on the projects).  I will let you know of the progress of these endeavors and link you to the sites as soon as they are done.

Well after going to Reno, and this last weekend going to KC for Kristin’s sister Whitney’s graduation, I am happy to be able to rest at home.  It was a great time seeing more of Kristin’s family, like her aunt and her cousin from Arizona.  We ate some excellent dinners with her parents and had a blast hanging out with her family, and running into her friends randomly.  But for me, I need to stay here for a bit and get readjusted to my house and relax.  I’m sure I’ll be off again, but until the mean time, it’s good to be back home.  I’ll be putting pictures of my house up soon, I have to retake them since I put my camera on the wrong setting and had some blurry photos.

So last friday (about a week now) Casey and I waited 2 hours to get our haircuts.  This was because our normal barber is ill in the hospital and is rumored to have only a few months to live.  Roberto Lacey was not only a great barber much I developed a nice friendship with him over the last 5 years he’s cut my hair.  Everytime he’s changed shops, when he had to cut out of his house, no matter what, I went to Berto.  He will be missed (hopefully the rumors are not true and he’ll get better).  So a few days after getting cut, Casey says to me, “We should grow our hair out, for the winter.”  Well I agreed, and the only thing that gets done are little edge-ups (I only want my neck to be clean).  We will see how long we can withstand the longness of our hair.  I hope to make it to around February, but who knows.  My little beard thing will not be trimmed either, but I will shave my neck as to not look too much like a hippie.  I will keep you posted of the thickness and feeling about my hair as time passes by.  The game is on!

Well this movie stars Jessica Simpson, Dane Cook, and a few other notables (including Andy Dick!). Well to summarize, there’s Dane Cook who’s a box boy that gets a crush on Jessica Simpson.  His rival, the “head cashier” always hooks up with women that he tries to approach.  Well he reads in Jessica’s profile that she slept with the Employee of the Month at the other store, so Dane sets out to get Employee of the Month.  The only problem is, his rival has won it 17 months in a row, and if he gets to 18, he gets a “newish” Chevy Malibu.  The movie has tons of great one-liners and the plot isn’t totally bad.  The cast is great, and the interaction is very comical.  The only downside that I noticed is that it seems to draw on longer than I would have liked, but other than that, I’d recommend you go see it if it looked interesting to you.

Well I was getting tired of driving my car, so I got another BMW. This BMW 330Ci was at an MSRP of $48,100 after adding the Sports Package. Now I know what you’re saying, “HOW IN DA HELL?!?” Well what actually happened was that I brought my car into the Crown BMW Dealership and they were nice enough to give me a loaner for the day (I had to schedule for one ahead of time). I met the service consultant who I scheduled with, and found out that I recognized him from when I worked at Crown as a BMW porter. So anyhow, he gave me the keys, informed me how to get the top down, and sent me on my way. I ran all the errands I could think of seeing how I had the car for the day. Pictures below:

So, you’ve heard of the gallon of milk in one hour myth! Well it’s stands as this: ::justin(”)::, ::scott(”):: and I tried to prove that you could accomplish this task in the time allotted. We we’re wrong. Justin was the first to go, drinking about 2/3 of his gallon and then vomitting. This wasn’t normal vomitting, it was Justin vomitting. Well I finally puked from a combination of seeing/smelling Justin vomit, and from the mexican food not settling well on my 1/2 a gallon. After I finished vomitting, I watched as Justin finished his gallon and then decided to return to puking. I stood behind Justin for a few photos while Casey snapped them off hoping to catch the glory! Scott had about 60% complete in his gallon when he decided to bring it back up. To sum it up, none of us did it (besides Justin completing it after he yaked). The pictures are posted below: (WARNING: May cause vomitting!)
