Recently i have been playing around with a VPN so that i can access my home network when i go to texas for 8 weeks for training, rather than dragging along my heavy desktop.

Unfortunately, the client that i really like, and worked very well, ran out of time on its evaluation period. It is http://www.thegreenbow.com ’s vpn client, which works great with my VPN appliance. but they also think their client must be the best on the market, as it is the most expensive one out there ive seen yet. they want 85 euros and that only gets you one license, and only 3 years of upgrades! WTF! thats almost $120 and then you only get updates for 3 years? Netgears is only $50, and you get updates for life. or there is openvpn, but it wont work with my VPN appliance, but its free!

In the end, forking over 120 bux and not get lifetime updates? i think not. sorry thegreenbow, but your client isnt worth that.

Well, the VW has been taken to the shop! There is only so much that i can do before i get stuck. I replaced so many parts trying to get it to run reliable again. Started with the points, then checked plugs, carb, replaced fuel pump, all the lines, filters, and anything else in that category trying to get it to start and run. well, turns out the carb (i only rebuilt it) was broken, had a massive air leak in it (so the car wouldn’t idle and ran like shit.)

So, hopefully today ill get it back, driving and wonderful again.

=D

In the comming weeks, there are going to be fundamental changes to the site! Im going to try something differant for a while, revolving around world of warcraft.

The first changes are going to be to the layout and design of the site, which is easy enough with wordpress. Im hoping the new format will give people a bit of a laugh, as many people view world of warcraft with cold eyes. Its only one of the most successful Massive Multiplayer Online Roll Playing Games ever to hit the net. outshadowing EverQuest and Eve Online.

The first posts should come durring the next week, so please, let me know what you think. (which involves you hitting the register button, joining the site, and then commenting.)

Been a hectic, well, since the last time i posted, ive had my hands full with life and all its twists and turns. I got enrolled in school, and it has been non-stop homework. Had a computer decide to die on me, and had to install vista due to a bug in XP’s service pack 3 bug. so, now that im used to vista, and not the 32-bit vista, but the 64-bit version, i am actually liking it. every now and then it will give me shit, but all operating systems are like that.

But other than the above, not a whole hell of a lot has been going on. its the start of a new week, and that means the start of more homework that will be due sunday. good thing i can delay it another day for my world of warcraft level session. =D

Its been 7 years since that fateful day. I remember it well, i was sitting in my office on the VAN pad at MCAS Miramar in san diego when i got a call from my mom. Someone had flown a plane into the world trade center in NY. I ran to my barracks room and grabed my TV and brought it back to the office. about the same time that i turned it on and tuned to the news, every siren on base went off and we went into the highest alert any of us had ever seen, threat con DELTA. we sat there, the rest of the day in disbeleif and wondering what was to happen with our military unit.

Thankfully none of us went to the middle east at that time, and i have yet to go. But now that im back in the miitary, serving in the Oklahoma Air National Guard, who knows.

Remember all those that lost their lives that day, and that no matter what is done to us, we humans can overcome just about any obstacle.

The following post is MY response to the below linked blog. http://karensconversations.blogspot.com/2008/07/heart-of-matter.html

Quite frankly over time I think, especially reading your blog, people understand your heart better than you do. From the readers perspective you seem to feel that you have some better insight into the mind of god than they do. Holier than thou would be a fitting term.

People are entitled to their opinions-especially on subjects such as religion. I’d like to say YES I am a sinner, I know this and I accept this. Somehow believing that Jesus is a savior is going to make all your sins ok amounts to an ostrich sticking their head in the sand. “It’s ok if I murder my children-I believe that Jesus is the savior and my sins have been forgiven.” You cannot pick and choose bits of faith to suit you. In your opinion it’s all or nothing.

Is it even possible for you to have a thought or a theological conversation where you don’t spout off your faith as if it’s a script, that you don’t so much believe as recite for fear of the ultimate spanking? Hell? How can you explain that texts OLDER than the bible have the same basic stories-different and multiple gods yet the stories they have as their faith and so much similar. It’s impossible to even acknowledge that you COULD be wrong, that your religion could be the result of yet another group trying to explain the world before science so they ripped off bits and pieces of some other faith and put it together. I guess you’ve never played the telephone game have you…stories told over and over before written text is changed.

The book you put so much faith in was written by these evil sinners. It is sheer ignorance to ignore the fact that this book has been translated over and over and it’s IMPOSSIBLE to change every phrase from one language to another w/o the meaning changing slightly-intentionally or unintentionally. Again you seem to agree that people are evil and sinful yet the ones who ‘wrote’ the bible, some how they were not sinners. We’re all evil sinners…sell out Jesus for 30 pieces of silver but oh no the rest of them who wrote the bible we’re honest and godly enough to tell the truth, to tell what was really said to them by angels (or their own mentally unstable self serving minds)

What if I am wrong..then that comes down to an unanswerable question. Fate or freewill. God is all know so he would know what my choice will ultimately be, sure you say that I have the CHOICE to do such and such but the fact that he knows contradicts that choice. I cannot choose to do the opposite of what he already knows so there is no choice for me. With THAT perspective god made me this way, he knows me and he already knows where I’ll end up.

What a shame that the person who donates blood to save a dying child would be going to hell because he’s Buddist. Or the mother who sacrifices her life to save her child but she’s a pagan…straight to hell. Yes there is your loving and just god.

If I speak to god for no other reason….God please save me from your followers.

And YES I can go more than an hour without an evil thought, not because I’m better than you but because I don’t have as much hate in my heart as the average ‘loving’ Christian. That is all, good bye I will no longer leave comments OR read this blog.

FOR YOUR INFORMATION PLEASE EDUCATE YOURSELF

Been a pretty busy last few weeks, hence the lack in posting. First off i had jury duty for 3 days, pretty fucking boring sitting in a basement for hours on end with really nothing to do. sucked pretty bad. Then, this last weekend was my first drill weekend with the Air National Guard in tulsa, which was a bit more fun. I really only just checked in at all the differant offices, but at least i was out walking around.

I have also been busy working on my IBM laptop, which is now all up to date with the latest release of Ubuntu with some extras installed like Snort, Wireshark, Aircrack-ng and a few other things.

Other than that, i guess its been pretty uneventful and dont really have anything else to post.
