Merry Christmas

Its Christmas Day here, and I’m just starting to wake up on my second cup of coffee. Maybe by the third or fourth cup I’ll be truly in the spirit of the season 🙂 Irene is “bah humbug”ing because she has come down with a cold, and I’m complacent in the knowledge that I will have it soon as well.

Coming Soon: Google AdSense

I finally got that new heat sink for my server this afternoon. I shut the box down for an hour or two while I installed and tested to make sure the CPU wasn’t getting overly hot.

The new heatsink is by a company called Zalman, and because of its unique shape they call the heat sink a “flower” style. Why did I go with such a funky looking heat sink? Well, mainly because of the positive user comments and the fact that the heat sink comes as a kit with everything, including thermal grease.

Worst. Movie. Ever.

Its been one of those days…not much I want to do, not much I have to do. So, I tuned in a movie on one of the “free” movie channels. The title sounded cheesy, but you never know: Dracula 3000- Infinite Darkness. Its a science fiction movie set in the year 3000, wherein an abandoned ship is discovered by a small group of salvage hunters.
