Well here it is, 8:12 in the morning... Toad managed to open up this box that I had my motorcycle battery in
and picked out the shop rags to play with. Well, actually she sits on the rags or tries to eat them. What can I
say, the cat has some problems. Speaking of cats, I posted a message on DSL reports pertaining to my office
setup and mentioned them, it's sort of funny and worth a read, check it out [HERE]. If you're interested in the
pictures of ole crazy toad with the battery charger and rags you can click [HERE], [HERE] and [HERE].

So the other day Jessica, Eric, Jackie and myself all thought it would be fun to get ice cream at DQ even though
it was -187* out. So as soon as we opened the door I noticed that all the scary people from BG were in there.
Man it was hella SCARY [HERE]. So after all the StOnEd employee's got our ice cream Jessica managed to pick
out the stickiest (is that even a word?) table. So we all had a fun time, since the scary BG town folk left and
then we hear this crazy ass screaming sound. As it turns out, the ice cream machine was having problems and
about every 5 minutes it would get stuck mixing the ice cream and squeel. It was pretty funny, but made us
jump almost every time. Guess you had to be there...

So, what else has been going on... Not too much I guess. Today being friday Jackie and I are going to eat some
tasty Chick-fil-A [HERE] oh man, it's going to be so damn good. It's also fun to just sit there and people watch.
I can not believe how many teenage kids dress like skanks and pimps these days. What ever happened to dressing
like a normal kid. I mean, I see kids with their parents and the kids look like their ready to go bar hopping, even
though they are only 13 years old. The best is when the mom has the same skanky back tattoo as her daughter.
What a wonderful society that we live in. Oh and if any of my feamle blog readers (if your a guy and have the
skanky back tat, then your for sure a queer) have that back tattoo, yeah, you know the one I'm talking about
just click [HERE] you're skanky. Sorry I had to be the one to break it to you... :/ It's just such a great idea
to have a tattoo by your ass crack. I think the way that it started was when a plumber was working on the
sink, his crack was hanging out and someone must have been watching and thought, "hell, if my ass hangs
out of my pants like that, I might as well give the person watching a better show..." My thought exactly.
The only thing that would make me happy to see is a monkey with 4 asses [HERE].

Well, I guess it is time to eat some b-fast or something... I might have some more chocolate cake left...mmm
we shall see. Anyway... I might have some more updates later on this weekend. Don't know... I have to work
and I also have another system to build. Hope everyone have a good weekend! Oh, I also want to thank every
one that watched and downloaded my video, over 1.6GB's worth!!! W00T! If you still have not seen it, read
my post below... LaterzzZZ...

/030705@3:25pm - "...Damn it feels good to be a gangsta..."

Well homies, here is an update for ya! As promised, Geahlan and I made a new video of us shooting guns and such.
We think it came out pretty good... It's got some nice ghetto rap music playing in the back round, so you might
not want your virgin ear'd parents to hear it. Nontheless, it says WESTON all over it. I made two versions, one for
people that have little to no bandwidth and the file size is a little over 13MB which I think is pretty doable over (gasp)
56k. Click [HERE] for it... The other version, which I reccomend is a little larger at 42MB, but the quality of the video
and sound is much better, grab that one [HERE]. The vids are zipped and were rendered using the WMV 9 codec.
If you have played my videos in the past this one should be fine, if not make sure that you grab an up to date
version from good old M$. It also might help to have new video card drivers... you never know these days.

As it turns out, this weekend was sort of a bust because had to work, although I was able to make the video and
do some shooting since saturday evening and sunday had windy but nice temps. I'm still waiting for this shit ass
weather to be gone for good (as I am sure the rest of you are too) so that I can do more fun things, like fire up
the CBR and CR250! Both Jackie and I have been scratching to ride my motorcycle, I can't wait. Who knows, I
was even thinking about upgrading to a CBR 929 or 954 later on this spring, depending on the cash flow situation.
I know, I know, I need to get some newer wheels first... Oh man... this sux! I'll just have to see what business
brings... Last week I had to work on Radical Rod's shop computer, that thing was all F'ed up from spyware and
junk. So when I was there I got to talking about a new bike... you see what happens to me... :/ BTW, the biz
has been doing well and I think with people getting TAX returns back and what not they seem to be upgrading
or wanting new systems. My sales for reByte have been doing good too... the only thing that sucks is that
it takes them WEEKS to pay me. I can't say that I am "getting mad" since I already am! Oh well...

Jackie and I are doing well, of course! and have been spending time together baking and cooking. It's nice to do
that when the weather is nsaty out. On our down times we've been watching all the MacGyver season 1 episodes.
So much fun... I forgot how good the first season was. Now all we have to do is bust out the MacGyver drinking
game [HERE].

Well folks, other then that, same old crap... I'll be posting more later on during the rest of this week. Have a
good one!

/030205@10:39am - "...Tear drop on the fire, fearless on my breath..."

So, yeah... it's been forever and I should have been more current with doing this crazy blog thing, but I guess that
I have not... So, where is the hell do I even begin. Okay, how about a job update. I was trying to get a job with
the City of Bowling Green since there was a opening in the IT department, and I knew a few of the people there
since I've built a NAS server for them before [HERE] and I thought I would be a good canidate for it. But, as it turns
out, a slighly older dude got the gig since he had two more years in the field. I was sort of bummed since I thought
I had this job in the bag, knowing the some of the IT guys and all, but it did not work out. Oh well, God has another
plan for me and I really think it's called being my own boss. My computer consulting has been doing rather well lately
and it's a very nice feeling to be helpping people with computer problems and get paid to do it. The city of BG also
gave me some business. Building two more storage servers, I have some pretty cool pictures of them [HERE], 800GB,
1GB memory, they were pretty cool. Any one that needs to build a files server or backup server should really look into
the product that I use called reByte, this link [HERE] has more information about it and I also made a web forum for
geeks like myself and others that need computer help to check out. [HERE].

And on to more fun things... As many of you may already know, I drive a 1993 Honda Civic. She has been a faithful
stead and has served me well, but I got the new car bug driving me wild. Now, I REALLY do like the S2000 that
Honda has, I've driven both the older version and the new and they are both amazing and powerful (for a 4 banger).
But, coming to realize that a two-seater might not make for the most practical car in the world, at least not right
now with me still doing computer work and the like. So, I looked at some others, still staying faithful to the Honda
line. Acura. HOT! The new Acura's are AMAZING. After doing some research I thought that the Acura TSX would
be a very nice car and Jackie and I wanted to test one out. So we headed to Dave White Acura in Toledo. Talked
with a nice sales man named Ron and told him what I was interested in. It was then that I noticed the TL. Sure,
It wasn't cheap (what Acura is) but I figured, hell, I'm here might as well check it out, and I did. The TL, hands
down is one of the sweetest rides I have ever driven. I tested both the 6 speed and the auto and came away with
a huge smile on my face. Both cars pull VERY hard and had the best standard features I've ever seen. The only
option that costs more is the GPS navigation. So, I have come to the decision that I will keep saving and maybe
in 55 years I can get one. Seriously though, at $33,000 it's not a cheap car, but I was willing to drop the $$$ for
an S2000, and this car is just as nice... No rag top though, and it's not rear wheel drive... Oh well. Check out the
Acura line, pretty cool cars and for sure check out the TL [HERE].

Guns - I love them. Even though the weather has been sucking I still have been able to get out and enjoy them.
Lucky for me, I even added a new one to my collection. It's a plinker, and excellent for target practice, the
Walther G22. [HERE]. This sweet baby has a bull pup design, scope and laser sight and since it fires .22 cal rounds
(found at your local WalMart for $8.97) you don't go broke shooting it! Last sunday, Geahlan and I dailed in the
scope and now it fires right on the money at about 75 yards with no drop. It was pretty fun to shot at old
Packard Bell computers [HERE] and the next time that we do it, we'll have a DV or digital camera handy!

My best pal Ryan Bridges called me the other day from Texas, his army training is doing well and he should be all
done this April (which is my birfday! what a great present). We have been writing each other letters and it has
been a good time. Now, there are times when we like to send little funny pictures and such, here is the latest
batch from Ryan [HERE] funny stuff! And, speaking of funning pictures, I managed to snap off a few shots of
ole horny rowdman trying to cornhole poor little bobbins! [HERE]!

Well, I hope this is a good update for ya'll... I'll do my best to keep posting suff, maybe twice a week or so. To
day I am off, so I'll be messing some business stuff of mine and play some Grand Turismo 4. At 3pm Jackie and
have a appointment to look at some new housing, so I hope we find a decent place to live in. At least until we
figure out more things with life... Like always... I hope everyone out there is doing well and staying warm...
It's looking mighty cold out there... Till then, later on... -- Max

/122604@5:22pm - "...This distance is not what it seems ..."

Good sweet LORD, it's been MONTHS! Where to start. Hmm... Okay, how about this one, I graduated college. YES! It's
finally over and I'll never have to worry about it again. I really lost hope quite a few number of times, but I never let
terrible BGSU beat me. Instead, I beat it! Take that mutha sucka! My family came up and we had a gang busters time
complete with tasty din snack and gun range action. Plenty of pictures to come, don't you worry my homies...

Jackie and I have been doing very well and even showed everyone around us the love that we have for each other, that
can be viewed [HERE]. So, I guess that the cat is out of the bag with that one, we've been dating for months now but didn't
want wild rumors to circulate at work, since we both are employed at the same terrible place... Shattles, I mean, DEATH PIT,
I mean... Staples. Speaking of which, Jackie did get a promoted, she is now the "Copy Print Center Lead" and this is a good
thing since, now, she won't have to deal with too many idiots or the worst store manager ever, Doug, aka, Willy Doug, aka,
Billy Doug, aka, B-eye, aka, Bloody EYE!, aka, Doug-o Slugg-o, aka, Dougie Fresh. So I am VERY elated for her and it's looking
quite promising. Work sucks for me though, it just really pains me to do the same f'ing thing, over and OVER every single time
I get there. The computer junk that we have is so easy to sell my cats could so it and quite frankly, I am just feed up with the
same old customers that come in and just like to jerk your meat and not buy anything. Take Mr. Questions part 6009 for example.
(Mr. Questions) (After walking around the store for about 2 hrs.) "Duh... umm, yeah, does this scanner work with my computer?"
(Max) "Well, let me look into my crystal ball, ahh, yes... it seems that you have a Packard Bell Legend Multimedia 6000 SUX with
8MB ram, 486 SX25 (no math co-processor) and a quantum 540MB hard drive with about 94.187% bad sectors on it." CAN I READ
YOUR MIND you shit slick??!!? On to second question. (Mr. Questions) (Pondering the response that I first gave him.) "Well, okay
I've been meaning to do something about that, but how about this (points to junky I/O Magic 16x dual layer DVD burner).
(Again, it seems that Mr. Questions is dumbfounded by his own stupidity and can not even finish his question)
(Max) "Shall I try and finish your question for you, assuming that you'll want to pirate old 1970 porn's with your neighbor, you
know, the guy missing the leg?" It is then that Mr. Questions walks around for another 69 minutes and then proceeds to walk
over to McSlingers for free heat. So yeah, that's my work experience in a nut shell. I really hope that something new opens for
me soon... There are a few leads around the corner, I just need to be patient. I really, (PLEASE GOD) need to find a job that
uses my computer intellect and challenges me to find the correct and best possible way to fix problems. Soon Max, soon.

Well, what else has been going on... The same old deal my friends, Holiday action! For X-Mas 2k4 Jackie and I went to hang with
her side of the family and all that. It was a good time, I really enjoy her family (both sides) and think that they'll even make good
in-laws. That's right, I said "in-laws" Don't worry, I didn't pop the question and you can BE SURE that I won't tell all you internet
freaks! HAHA ;) It was good, the only thing that SUCKED was all the level 3 ass snow that we got on Wednesday and Thursday.
It made for an interesting experience since the LAZY SHIT management here at village green doesn't give a rats balls about the
renters and made us fend for ourselves to get our cars out. Lucky for me, I backed the ole Civic in (before hand) and was able to
pull a wicked hole shot and roost though all the snow where others (see, F-billy in clapped out Chevy 1500 pickup) got stuck and
had to call for assistance. Props to the City of BG though, for getting most (MOST) of the snow out of the main roads. I kind of
like roosting in the snow though, it can be fun sometimes. Although, it would be better if I had my fathers Jeep. That thing is a
blast in the snow.

Much before this though, I helped our old buddy Dano Bell pick up a moving van, since he is moving away from his beloved BG.
It was sad to see Dano go, He will be missed. The only thing that I won't miss is the weak bunny hops he would pull on the 929
and borrowing all my video games for 6 years. All kidding aside, Good luck out there Dan, you're gonna need it since your soon
to be wife is in debt up to her eye balls. HAHA, j/k :) Dan is a good guy and I hope that we can hook up for some riding, since
he'll be closer to Mid-Ohio for track racing. Hell yeah!

I hope that this is a decent enough update, I know that it has long been over due. I think that with school done, I'll be better
with the updates and such. I also plan on posting pictures from the holiday and graduation, but I have about 1.2 gigs worth.
Maybe tomorrow... HEHE, On another side note, I would like to thank every visitor who came to my web site, you all have
generated 6.49 gigabytes of traffic!!! I think that is a lot, since I don't really advertise this web site and all that jazz... Till
then homies...

/103104@10:32am - "...I've finally found the love of a lifetime..."

Holy crow (as my grandmother would say) it's been FOREVER since I've updated. Sorry about that folks, this has been
a crazy wack wild month with school, work, Jackie, dirtbikes, guns, etc... Okay... now where should I start off... Last
Weekend Jackie and I went back to her stomping grounds to visit family and go out to dinner and I was also invited to
her famiy reunion in Pennsylvania, which was held at this really nice little place called Cabin Run. WOW! It was awesome,
her family is really cool and they know how to have a good time, complete with riding four wheelers, drinking beer, guns,
eating tasty meat, smores, etc. It was awesome. I have some pictures that I'll be posting too of Jackies family and of
us, acting cute of course. [HERE]. On a side note, I was also able to find mucho amounts of Zagnut candy bars in PA.

After a really nice retreat, we both came home late together on sunday night and slept like logs. We both needed to have
a good time like that, since work has been sucking and school is getting to that time where the course load is heavy. It's
always nice to get away and I am VERY lucky that I have Jackie in my life, she is such a great person, thank you babe!

Back in Weston the past few days the boys and I have been skeet shooting and target practicing with old Packard Bell
computers. A .40 cal bullet goes through them nicely. My right arm is pretty damn sore from all the f'ing shotgun rounds,
about 75 in a 2 day period. It's all good though, there is nothing better then cocking the old Mossburg and then letting
loose... Jackie and I have also been going to the gun range to target shoot. She does VERY well and soon she'll be as
good as me, if not better. I hope to visit again soon, it's fun and a good way to relieve stress. Ya'll should try it.

So, this weekend I've been alone, no mamacita (BOO HOO). Her brother came into town so she went back home to visit
and hang out. Which is cool, everyone needs a little time apart. For me this weekend has been nice, just doing stuff
that I've been meaning to get done, like wash and clean the old CR250, do laundry, etc. Well folks, I'll try and keep
this blog more up to date, it is just hard to make the time... Have a good spooky Halloween.

/103104@10:54am

/100704@12:20am - "...another skeleton song stuck in my head tonight..."

Oh boy, has it been a while... Sorry about that folks, you know how life is... wild and crazy. But, I must admit, I have
NEVER been this happy in my life and I owe that to a very special someone and her name is Jackie! So, mi mucho caliente
mamacita, I thank you for being there for me. I truly enjoy every minute that we spend together... Many more to come!

Okay, I am sure that my main readers were getting sick of the above... but, I had to let me feelings out sometime... Aiight,
now for the good stuff. I finally got my lazy ass in gear and finished the Haspin Acres video. Those without a phat internet
conneciton need not apply. The files are not too large, hehehe... 43MB and 82MB. They are both zipped and you'll need
good old M$ media player. The normal quality version is [HERE] and the super high quality version is [HERE] ENJOY! Also,
let me know what you think by posting a message on my b-board. Click [HERE].

So... what else has been going on... same old stuff I guess. Trying to finish off the semester right... working the consulting
gig here and there... tearing the CBR out on 105 and hanging with good chums. I'm sure as more cool things happen I'll be
posting more... but, It is looking like bed for me and Bobbins is barkin all over the place... Better give her some treats!
Peace out homies!

/100704@12:31am

/092804@3:11pm - "...I don't belong here..."

Haspin Acres was a complete sucess! Jackie and I managed to fix the brakes together, yes that's right, she was my
little monkey wrench for friday afternoon and was a REAL big help. It would have taken me a long ass time to fix the
brakes with out her. We managed to snap a few pictures during the day of the ugly F150 and getting the wLBZ trailer
ready. You can check the pictures out [HERE]. So, the rest of Friday was spent cleaning, fixing and loading up stuff to?
get ready. Jackie and I were pretty hungry so we went to our new favorite chinese place on rt. 235 called "Wen Dee's"
umm, so fresh, so tasty, so HAND rolled egg rolls! Oh it was good! That night we just hung out and relaxed since I had
to get up at 6:30am to get the F-billies up in time for our adventure...

...AND what an adventure it was... Not only did we get lost, foul a spark plug and met some new pals, we beat all the
odds... Many town folk said that people turn up dead from riding at Haspin and I could see why. When we got there, it
was pretty damn overwhelming... There was at least 300 people there and lots of hill billy people doing wheelies in the
parking lot. VERY dangerous, but very fun. I can't wait to go back and bring an ass load of people along so that it'll be
even more fun. The trail system there was kind of wack, but none the less, cool as hell. Lots of hill climbs that you'd be
stupid to try, at least with a quad. There was only one hill that I didn't make up with the old 250, no damage done, I
just couldn't get a good jump on it and there was alittle stream that I had to wheelie across too... So much fun!

We rode for good 7 hours and then thought about just packing it in and doing the 4 hour ride home. We all agreed that
it would feel good to sleep in a bed, rather then the F150 pickup bed, that, and I didn't really want to listen to Geahlan
snoring... hehe ;) So we did just that and managed to get back to Weston in under 4 hours, even with a little stop to
grab some McSlingers! Damn it was good to be back home... and I have to admit, it was good to see Jackie... yea, I
guess I'm pathetic... Seriously, you'd miss her too, she truly is, an amazing woman. :)

Sunday, I slept in to like noon and then was even more lazy... Jackie and I wanted to get some snacks so we went to
Applebees for a late lunch and I made her feel uncomfortable by eating riblets slob style. hehe... Since we were close
to El Cheapo movie theater we jaunted over there to watch a movie. What a nice complete weekend, I couldn't have
asked for a better one.

On a side note, We did manage to capture some footage at Haspin and I'll be posting a little "Sand Drag" racing clip
soon, I just have not had the time to toss it on my PC yet. So, I guess these pictures will have to do... They are of
the Weston crew (my self included) and our new pals from Kentucky. View them [HERE].

/092804@3:33pm

/092304@11:53pm - "...Pipe dreams fade, and all the underdogs get laid..."

Shut your mouth honey child, I know that it's been awhile... You know how I do it, lazy style... But for real, its
been a wild few weeks... School, working, consulting, etc... The real big time show stopper news is that the
hillbillies and I planned a trip for Haspin Acres this weekend. Yup, you've heard correctly... So, that means new
video footage and snap shots from a 5MP digi-cam lent to me from ole Erin! Thanks hun, you're the best... Well,
Jackie is the best, and you're a close second ;) Haha! Now, on to the problem... See here, the only thing holding
us back is the P.O.S. F150 is a JUNK WAGGON! Ellery's dad (Willie Nelson) likes to over-load the shit out of this
truck and then stomp on the brakes so that the front lines snap all over tha place. Thus making for flintstone
style stopping action... Now ever other day in Weston, this would be fine, but with a truck loaded with our
pride and joy, hardcore motocrossing machines, this poses a problem.

I know that you (my faithful blog readers) are wondering, "gimme an update mutha sucka!" So here it is...
We put on new lines in the front and it looks mighty JAKE, but it should work, the oil is changed in the motor
and... and... THE BLEEDER screws are F'ING stuck so now I can't bleed the friggin brakes. For those that don't
understand how your car brakes work, since you're probably lazy and don't really care, brakes use a very simple
hydraulic principal - using fluid as a force... BUT if there is AIR in this system, it's fuct... Now see, this is
where the bleeder screws come in. In order to get the excess air out of the system, you have to open the
screw and release the air. But, when your truck is a 15 year old pile, things age like an old guys pair of nuggets.
Thus making for next to impossible to remove bleeder screws... I sure as hell hope that tomorrow I can figure
out how to get them out. Cause if we don't make this trip I'll be mighty pissed!

Well, I am sort of ripped and watching high quality television with Jackie seemed to tire me ;) So, I better turn
in for the evening... PLEASE stay tuned for the updates. If you read one tomorrow that means that I couldn't
get the screw out and I'll be angry... So, it should be an interesting post... Maybe I'll even include pictures of
me beating of the F150. Although, if there is no update tomorrow or Saturday night for that matter, then we're
in Haspin drinking Coors and ripping through the trails... Man I hope it's the latter... Cross your fingers please!

/092404@12:18am

/091604@9:05am - "...so kill me with the love, that you won't give to me..."

Fine, be mad at me... I know, I was supposed to update this weekend... But, things were wild and I was really
ripped tired from the river clean up at Sugar Creek. So lets see... where to begin. Saturday Jackie and I went
to the Black Swap to get massive lunch. mmm... It was soooo good, nasty fries, chicken gyro, Italian sausage
and fresh lemonade. We both thought that it was pretty busy and entertaining. Had some laughs and made
it a good time, as we do with everything. :)

So after our visit to the swap, we walked back to the crazy cottege where her friends called and wanted to go
to the swamp. Having already gone she still went since she is a Black Swap playa. I thought that it was a good
day to go for a ride and even though I didn't have my favorite riding pal with me... went anyway. My ride took
me to some wild places in waterville and since I was close though it would be a good plan to stop at Jim White
honda to look at the 2004 S2000's. So I did... F'ing HOT! WOW, when I got there I parked right next to one.
Went inside and talked to a older sales guy... Told him that I wanted to try out an '04 since the last one I drove
was an '03. He went to get the keys and I kept thinking, "man, I hope the motor has more meat to it, down low..."
So... He pulls around with one in my favorite color - Silverstone... Now, this one had the black leather and I
would rather have the red and black leather, but this wouldn't effect my drive. Fired it up by pressing the "start"
button and away we go. I noticed the change in lowend as soon as the clutch was let out. DAMN Honda did
their homework. The car had a lot more bottom to it and was really fun to drive. So, we get to a more open
part on the road and I boot this thing in the ass in 3rd, taking it to about 7,000... VTEC kicked in SO HARD I
felt like I was driving my CR250. It was AWESOME! I loved it, I'm in love and now I want one. The salesman sort
of freaked out by saying... "hey son, we still have laws around here..." and I proceed, "hey, well, it's a sports car
with an 8,000 red line, I have to test it out a little bit..." I guess someone needed to change this guys huggies.
It's not like I got it sideways in a intersection, hehe... ;)

So after the test run, I rode back home to chill. The rest of the weekend was uneventful till Sunday when I had
to do wild river clean up, which was pretty intense and good dirty fun. This week has been the usual stuff, school
work and my consulting gig. The weather has been pretty decent for the most part so, I was able to go for rides
everyday and even take ole Jackie along, good times...

Tonight is my favorite night for TV. I can't wait... and also on a side note, NEXT weekend Elo, Pete-o and myself
are heading to HASPIN ACRES! I can't wait. We'll start going over our bikes this weekend and get 'em ready. Don't
worry, we are bringing two DV cams and a digi-cam too I hope. It should be an awesome 2 day even with camping
and eating of meat and drinking from the vine of Coors.... More updates soon...

/091604@9:45am

/091004@10:35am - "...smiles cover your heart..."

Looks like time, has once again lapsed... The usual stuff has been going on, working at the old pit (aka Staples)
doing the skool thing... blah. The last few days seem to have dragged. I don't know why, maybe because my
current job makes me feel so... unfulfilled... I hope that changes soon. I know that it's like this for others that
work there. Oh well, what can you do. I guess what sucks the most, is how much a place can consume you. If
it's a job, school, relationship, whatever... When things get you down, it makes the rest of your day sour, at least
sometimes... :(

This weekend I have my "crazy river cleanup" community service for my environmental 401 class. It's looking like the
weather should be okay and i'm sure I'll have fun working with this girl I know from the crazy humaine society. The
cool part about this class is that it's very "hands on" which I think is a better way to learn any how. Besides the river
cleanup I'd like to MAYBE do some riding on the dirt bikes. I guess ELO messed his CR125 up, AGAIN and I'll have to
fix that thing if we're ever going to get our lazy asses up to Haspin Acres [HERE].

Yesterday I slaved over the hot stove preparing my infamous meat balls. I had the taste for them and I wanted to
cook for Jackie, since she was busting hump all day at work. I thought it would be good for her to come home and
eat a nice meal. AND LET ME TELL YOU, they came about amazing, if I do say so myself. I made the balls a little
different this time, sorry I can't tell you the secret family recipie... mmm, they were good, I can't wait to eat more
for luch today. I love cooking and I am so happy that I have someone to cook for again. I really miss doing it. I am
also glad that the weather is starting to cool since it sort of sux to cook inside the "flame box" (aka - my apartment)
when it is 85 out. Now I can use my stove to heat the place up and have good smells to boot! :)

The Black Swap festivities are going on this weekend, which should be entertaining. I know that Jackie wants to
go the whole weekend, since there is something different each day and she is a little artsy too... I mean, you'll have
to check out the cottage... she is working her magic over there quite nicely. I know that I want to eat fattening food.
I.E., Italian sausage, nasty fries and maybe chicken on a stick! Should be fun...

Other then that, I don't know what the weekend will bring. I don't want to start thinking ahead and then just get
disapointed, which sometimes can happen to us all... I'll give you some updates on sunday, or maybe even on saturday
depending on how busy I am. I hope everyone else has a good weekend. Till then homies!

/090404@1:18pm - "...take what you need and be on your way..."

Ain't life grand...? The past few days have been GREAT! The best parts were moving Jackie into her new place, meeting
some of her family and just... well... spending time with her, since we both had a few days off... It was so nice... :)
The "Crazy Cottage" as we both call it, really is a cool place and it is so perfect for her. I mean, where else can you
roll out of bed, stop at the bank to pick up your $3.25 and walk 2 more minutes to get pipin hot PANDA! Oh, you bet,
thursday we got Panda... mmm... so, THICK! and CHEWY! She is so happy and I am sooo happy for her, it's good to
see a cheek to cheek smile on that pretty face of hers! HAHA! Good times...Good times...

So, what else has been going on... well... same old I guess... Did some much need laundry at old L-187-Maries with
the Jackmaster... It was nice, since now I have some clothes to wear and I REALLY needed to wash the old uniform.
Also, the other day I was able to get the 250 [HERE] out and have a nice time, rip some wheelies and toss some roost!
Elo also needed a plug for his 125 so I got that and fix her up, ripped on it good too... Man I sure do miss riding... I am
glad that this month I took some time off work so that we can all go riding... It'll be nice... Maybe we can even do some
camping too. That would be fun as well.

The other night Jackie and I rented The Butterfly Effect. [HERE] It was pretty cool, The story was pretty interesting
and the sound was VERY good pumping on the home theater setup, so much so, that I was scared. If you are into
movies that mess with altering the past & future, kind of stuff, give it a look see... Jackie also managed to make me
watch Under the Tuscan Sun [HERE] which being more of a romantic, comedy, drama sort of chick film was pretty good!
I liked it, since it didn't have your a-typical love theme. Good pick Mamacita ;) Other then that... Well, it's almost
time for work. Boo Hiss... I am not looking forward to doing frieght but, being the good employee that I am, it'll get
done and be right. Speaking of work, I managed to get employee of the MONTH a second time. YEaaaHOO ME! Damn
I'm smooth... Hmm, I wonder what pose I should do this time for my work picture... I'll have to think about this one.

/090404@1:46pm

/083004@11:48pm - "...but don't look back in anger, I heard you say..."

Well looky what we have here... I've got a bulletin board running, so... now EVERYONE can post fun messages and
chat with others that read my blog. I encourage everyone that checks my blog to look at my B.B. You can check
it [HERE] and there will always be the link at the top of my page "|PHPbb|" to click on. You'll find some interesting
things on the board and some really fun, cool people to talk to. Most of them are homies I work with, but others
are just visitors of my page. And, since I am quite the computer geek, there will be lots of crazy computer talk...
But in general, a little for everyone! Check it out and have fun, but do so in a semi-professional manner, don't do
anything that can get you into trouble, since I am not going to be held responsible for what goes on... I can't
administer it all the time, though I do check it many times a day. Also, since I am new to PHP, it might change...
so bare with the changes, or if you have any ideas let me know with a email [HERE]. Have a nice visit!!!

So what else has been going on... Well, lets see here... Same old I guess, second week of school... getting closer
to the end which is a VERY NICE FEELING! Work has been aiight, I guess. Now that other schools are in session,
the wild nutty shoppers are starting to thin... Which is good... On a side note, Jackie is moving to her new place!
I am so happy for her and I know that she will have a great time making it her own! I love living by my lonesome.
It can be lonely, but, it is so nice not to have to deal with a room mate or a slob ass person. I just wish that I
had my own house with a garage and motocross track... hehehe... On a side note, I stole this picture from old
crazy bone Chucks site of Jackie looking at me... but... is she wasted? You be the judge. Check it [HERE]. Now
since I stole the pic from Chuck, I guess I better give his site props. That's right Chuck, it's looking like you'll be
getting some more visits from ole Max, you lucky punk you! Go to Chucks site if you like to waste time, come on
I know you do. [HERE]. Hmm0rrzz, looks like someone hacked Chucks site... oh well, it wasn't me this time hoss!

Well, I guess that is all for now folks, I hope that you had a nice read here... and... I hope that you check out my
B.B. It's good for a few laughs! Time for the ENVS401 home work, damn... Till then ya'll, I'm audi5000

/082904@2:00am - "...Slip inside the eye of your mind, don't you know you might find a better place..."

Good WEEKEND! Good times, good people and a fun celebration for my Staples manager Wendy. Where to start...
So, lets see... Friday was good, NO WORK, only one class and a dinner date with Jackie at Olive Garden to start
it off. Jackie and I had a nice friendly dinner, good laughs, great talks and even mentioned our wonderful job, argg!
The food was pretty good for the most part and for some wild reason I felt the need to eat a hoejillion bowls of
salad and b-sticks... mmm... The only thing that sort of sucked was that Jackie's pasta sort of tasted like dish
water... But, this was okay since she is use to that taste with eating at the ole Panda! YUMMMMM!!!

After the dinner date action, we went to pick up Erin since she needed a ride to the festivities and headed to
Wendy's hang out of choice, Bootleggers. Now, this was our (Jackie and mine) first time to this bar and for the
most part, while being a huge f'ing hill billy I normally don't go to country bars... BUT... This place was actually
pretty damn cool! We all had a lot of fun and the $5.00 cover was totally worth the live band that was playing.
We also met CJ, aka, JackHammer for the first time as well. The other homies joined us later on and we then
tore it up, store 731 style! Many drinks, many laughs, it was a damn good time and I hope that Wendy had a
great birthday... We managed to bring the old digi-cam with us to snap off a few photos for your viewing enjoy-
ment... so, click this link [HERE] and get it started! I hope that the other pictures will be sent to me via email
so that I can add them up here for all to see... good times, good times!

Well, I know that I have only been talking about Friday... I know, didn't I do other fun things??? Well, YES! I did
but, I'm too dang tired to post about them and I need to play with my new Dell Webserver... I can't tell you every
thing, now can I... Good night world! See ya on the flip side, tune in later for more updates!

/082904@2:15am

/082704@4:47pm - "...So I'll start the revolution from my bed..."

School is back! Yeah... THE LAST SEMESTER OF MY LIFE! 2 classes..., well, 3 counting my independent study and
then it's over. I can't wait! YEAH! Don't worry, I won't look back in anger... College has shown me a lot about life,
choices, friendships and love - just a few that come right from the top of my head... I must admit that with of all the
people I've met, its been a wild ride. I hope that I can continue to have fun with all the people that are in my life.
I know that where ever my life takes me, I'll have known some truly good folks! I hope, pray and wish the best for
everyone.

Ryan is gone :( Yes, you've read correctly, Ryan is now in the army. The real deal, BOOT CAMP. I am sure that
he is doing well, even if he is getting his ass handed to him... I really miss the kid and I hope that he is doing well
and being strong. If there is the slight chance that you're reading this Ryan, be strong homie... We'll be going to
the mall to get some chicken sandwhiches in no time... Yeah, we'll scope the hotties too... haha! I can't wait to
get his address so that I can send him wild pictures of my cats and love letters so that his drill sgt. whoops him!
Maybe I can even slide a few naughty pictures of Jackie in there, haha, assuming that I have some.... ;) In all
seriousness though... I'll be missing him, he is still (and will always be) one of my best pals!

So... What else... Hmm... Tonight is Wendy's B-day celebration at the only bar that she frequents, bootleggers.
I think that's the name of the place... It's your average cowboy hillbilly bar, or so I've heard. It should be a good
time. The O.S.H and I are picking up Erin, since she umm, lost her license... yeah, that's it... lost her license ;)
and then we'll meet up for some good times. Word on the Staples street is that her latest "Boy Toy" TJ, or JT
dammit... um... MJ, oh hell, I just call him "JackHammer" is going to be there... So that ought tobe interesting.
I don't plan on consuming too much cerveza, since I'll be the driver... and, I have to work at the DEATH PIT
tomorrow - close. As long as I don't work with JERK-O Jen, I'll be okay... Speaking of which... Naw, I better not...
I'll get to angry about work. I can not F'ing wait till this GODDAMN "Back to School/ Hell" is over... These last
few weeks of work have REALLY been sucking... And our manager Doug-o Sluggo (aka, B-eye, aka, Douggie
fresh, aka, asshat) is being a real turd. But lets not talk about work... jeah...

As I sit here and write this garbage, I'm waiting for UPS to get here with my damn Dell web server/ work
station. I also will be in the process of upgrading my aging FTP [HERE] server. Which, has been at capacity for
weeks now... It should be fun... I love being a geek, guess who else loves me being a geek? Hehehe... Well, I
guess nothing else cool has been going on as of the late. I can't complain, my life is good. I'm happy! :) I hope
everyone else is doing well too... If this weekend doesn't suck too bad I'll post about it this sunday, so... Stay
tuned... Peace out ya'll!

/082704@5:16am

/081804@1:07am - "...I think you're just what I needed..."

Okay, I know... It's been a LONG WHILE. I'm sorry my faithful blog readers, A lot has been going on in my life.
Mostly good... Hmm, VERY GOOD ;) and there have been the normal things that sort of suck, like working at
ole Shattles, I mean Staples. Pretty much the same old thing I guess. Work, the consulting gig, roosting on
the CBR, hanging with my pals and many laughs with the Office Supply Hottie.

Speaking of laughs, school starts next week. Man, that sux. I am pretty happy though, since It'll be my last
semester, EVER. It blew that I couldn't get everything done this summer, but hey... At least it IS getting done.
Looks like little sis and I are going to be done at the same time, so that worked out for my LAZY ass parents
who said: "Make sure that you get this finished up so you and Lindsay graduate together, I don't want to buy
more plane tickets...at different times..." Many thanks to my sweet family... :D

I have decided that I need to buy something fun when I get done with school. Yes, I know, I should just look
for a house. Or, maybe even a REAL job... but, things are going quite well with reByte and my consulting gig.
I have some jobs this week, one of them being web design, so that'll be some $$$. But, back to my fun
purchase... I am buying an Honda S2000. I don't know if I am going to get one off lease, used. They are much
cheaper then new... But, I do like the 2004's since they changed the motor a little to give it more bottom end,
which would be nice. The only draw back is that the 2004's don't rev to 9,000 RPM like the 01-03's. Hmmm,
decisions, decisions... Here are some pictures to fancy over. Don't worry, I'll give you a ride. [HERE] & [HERE]
& [HERE]. I must admit, she looks PIMP in yellow... Though I dig the gray too... I mean, the HOES love the
S2000 [HERE]. Don't get me wrong, I'm not buying it for a chick magnet, I'm a driver... It's part crotch rocket!
PHAT interior too, just feast your beady little eyes on this [HERE]. Damn, I love the 6-speed. It's not for LAZY
FAT slobs, that's for sure... Fun indeed... OKAY, enough for my love affair with the Honda S2000... Lets just
hope it becomes a reality... HA!

Yeah, yeah, so this post was sort of lame... I'll have more as the week goes on... Stay tuned all... Time for
Sleep action time... G'night homies...

/081804@1:30pm

/080804@7:39pm - "...all because of you..."

You know what sucks...? I'll tell you... not being able to control your emotions as to be pushy, persistent and
anxious. I have exhibited all these negative qualities this afternoon and much to my dismay the outcome leaves
a bitter taste in my mouth. What is the point of trying to be with someone or, how about help someone if
you can not see your own faults. Yeah, I know I have them, I just listed some for you above. Now I need
to focus on them and try to just reach out, instead of making someone do something. Or rather, listen and
let a decision be made with out my $0.02. I guess all this is really hard for me, espically when it pertains to a
friend, family member or dare I say... significant other... The latter, I don't really have though... :(

I like to think of myself as a pretty decent person for the most part. I like to think that I am a good listener
and a compassionate person. But sometimes, after doing some of the things that I seem to do... I have to
wonder about my whole state of mind... I know that there are times when I get overtly excited for people and
this showed today... But, instead of just being happy, I had to push the envlope... I had to once again give
my pushy damn feeling on the subject. Now, I know you, my faithful blog readers are wondering what this
"subject" is that I am talking about and I wish that I could tell you, but I cannot. Someday maybe... and,
until that day comes, my little hatchlings, just chill out and be fresh...

So, here I am... Nothing changes... but the changes... hmm... I know that someday, things going on with my
life, the people in it... the challanges I'll overcome, the thoughts on my mind... will all amount to contentment.
My good special friend will live her life with out issue and be happy, my cats will sleep all day and be lazy shits,
my little sister will grow up and stop being a jerk face and my life will continue to show me that even with
negative emotion, beautiful emotion can emerge and shine triumphantly. Wow, that was some deep stuff huh?
It appears that I do have a serious side. To think that I got the "snickers" award at work, haha! Oh well, this
is begining to depress me, or rather, it already has... But, I did my part. I got out what I needed to. Now all
I need to do is apologise one more time... Sorry. And, try to understand that things will work out on their own
accord. Try to have faith with the unknown... Everything will be okay, I know this... Until the day... :*

I almost forgot my last minute addition; "Love is passion, obsession, someone you can't live without. If you
don't start with that, what are you going to end up with? Fall head over heels. I say find someone you can
love like crazy and who'll love you the same way back. And how do you find him? Forget your head and listen
to your heart. I'm not hearing any heart. Run the risk, if you get hurt, you'll come back. Because, the truth is
there is no sense living your life without this. To make the journey and not fall deeply in love - well, you haven't
lived a life at all. You have to try. Because if you haven't tried, you haven't lived." -- Indeed... g'night...

/080804@9:28pm

/080604@10:02pm - "...slow motion like a dream but real time is what it seems..."

So today was a pretty dope day. Did a little riding on the CBR, little g-shoppin, little cleaning, little cooking
and work... Yeah, it was all good. Had fun working with Wendy and the crew, including Stretch and Crystal
Lake. Good times... Stretch even got the "special deal" at old Yawbus (aka, Subway) and we ate like kings
on the clock of course, j/k... We even got visited by Sherry and Jackie. Yeah, Sherry... Tha Staples drifter...
haha, SIKE! Sherry needs a plug on my site, since she feels that I steal all her ideas and pictures... come on
hun, you like me! ;) So, since I am linking to Sherry's site, I better see a link back home slice, haha! Check
her digs out [HERE]. I mean, come on now... LOL, Sherry has some funny stuff on her page, like this direct
quote "...once Jackmaster and I start acting all crazy like a fox it's no big thing." Wow, note the usage of
"Jackmaster." F'ing hilarious! Seriously though, check it out...

So after work, as the CBR was warming up, every one was like, come on playa pimp... ROLL out some wheelies.
After doing a few quick laps to get the tires hot, I pulled a few nice ones... So, that should keep the staples
crew happy for a while... HAHA! What a good group of people...

I need to stop going back and forth with writing... I guess that is what happens when 6 people instant message
you all at the same time. Wow, I have friends. People like me. Jeah... Aiight, ya'll time to drink some Coors.
Speaking of which, Jackie was nice enough to save me a wonderful glass, check it [HERE]. Mmmm, what a
nice girl... She saved it from the garage sale 'o' death. Many thanks homie! You're da BIZOMB! And on that
note I leave you with this, a quote from William Somerset: "I didn't say I was different or better. I'm not.
Hell, I sympathize; I sympathize completely. Apathy is the solution. I mean, it's easier to lose yourself in drugs
than it is to cope with life. It's easier to steal what you want than it is to earn it. It's easier to beat a child
than it is to raise it. Hell, love costs: it takes effort and work." -- Se7en.

/080504@10:24pm - "...when your eyes are closed, I hope i'm the man you see..."

OH YEAH! Updates!!! Time flies... Indeed! SPANISH IS DONE FOREVER!!! No more! and... I think that I got an
"A" in 212. So that is fab! I am really happy that it's over! Today was the last day and to rejoyce, Ryan and
I went to PANDA to get some tasty lunch. Oh, it was good. So high quality. mmmm... The weather was pretty
nice today, so I was able to get the bike out. I hope that the sun sticks around a little bit. I really would like
to do some off road riding on sunday. Now that I think about it, I have to work Friday and Saturday, till close!
So, even though that sux, I do work with FUN people, aka, Wendy on friday and my personal favorite, Jackie
the O.S.H. On Saturday. What does O.S.H. stand for you ask? Well, it turns out that she got a new title at
work; "Office Supply Hottie." I wish I had that title ;) hehehe. Jackie, if you're reading this, smile! Don't hit me!

So, what else... well... I guess things are going pretty damn well for me. My life is turning around and I have
been hanging with fun people and with a even more special friend. HA! More on that some other time, I can't
give you guys to much info on my blog... then how fun would my life be with all you jerko's knowing what's
going on...? hehehe, j/k. I luv my fellow blog readers. Thanks for the hits! I guess I just am enjoying my life
and I have many people to thank (you know who you are!) and I am just basking in the after glow...

I know that some of you are wondering where the "Cobra" footage is... I know... I'm still working on it... Don't
worry, this weekend, I'll get around to it. I need to compress it more, so, i'm working on a new codec that'll
help. (Whoa, too much geek talk for some). Today, I also took one of my NX1 think clients and turned into
a real nice MP3 box, that is running the new version of Winamp and can be viewed with TightVNC through wifi.
So, in otherwords, when the party people are over, I now have a nice music server that is hooked up to the
high powered Sony... It is good for about... oh, 18 Days of music. NO JOKE! The MP3 collection is SICK.
I added up my stuff, 3 PC's worth... insane. Too many gigs. WoW! I think that by this winter, I'll sink the big
dolla's on (4) 400GB hard drives, oh yes... RAID 5, 1.2TB. No I didn't add wrong. You know how RAID 5 works?
Right? Prolly, not... That's why I charge $60.00 a hour to hook it up. Okay, this is getting too geeky. I'll stop!

Oh, did I mention that I saw I, Robot last week with ryan? It was pretty dope. I'd see it again... The story was
pretty cool and the effects were dope too. After the movie, The 731 cReW met up at ole BW's too hang.
Sherry had her digi-cam with her and was able to snap some shots. You can view them [HERE]. It was a good
time... Maybe too good, ha! We all had so much fun. Just shows what happens when you drink in excess and
get all of us together. The photos are so silly... good times, good times! Tune in for the next crazy par-tay!
Ryan's going away bash. Maybe we'll get some video this time... hellz yeah!

Okay, so this was a pretty good update, right? Well, I better wrap this shiznit up... Time to kick back and
listen to some N.E.R.D. I'm audi5000... LaterzZZzzz ya'll!
