Mayor Villaraigosa and his new word, 'Uh'
Open Letter to the Mayor of Los Angeles.

Mr. Mayor, I know the people of Los Angeles voted you into office, but couldn't you represent the people of Los Angeles better if every time you spoke in front of cameras you could refrain from using the word "Uh" every other word? I am sure L.A. has a few good college to learn better communication skills such as UCLA, USC, or even a L.A. Community College. Please Mr. Mayor, take some classes, you seem so idiotic when you speak. I am sure the people of Los Angeles do not want a person like you to represent them in a global community using the word "UH."

After watching the Palin/Clinton SNL Video, I get this message when the video is over. I say to them, "FUCK YOU!" I am not disabling it. Thank you Firefox and "Adblock Plus."

30 Minutes On Hold with Dell just to order a CD-Rom
I can not fucking believe it took me 41 minutes to I ordered a simple CD/DVD drive from Dell. From calling their main 800 number to being placed on hold and transfered all over, then finally placing the damn order it took 41 minutes. That is unacceptable.

Dell has to get their shit together. If you need to order a part for your server, go a different rout. Try CDW instead. They are much faster.
Starbucks Drive-thru Sucks
I can not believe I waited 17 Minutes on a Sunday morning for a Decaf and a muffin in the Drive-thru at Starbucks, Mission Viejo, CA. I am fucking stupid to do that shit. Why the hell did Diedrich's close! Damn, know all I have for choice is AM/PM, Mom and Pop or Starbucks. Well, it looks like I will start using Mom and Pop more often for my coffee fix. Fuck You Starbucks!
Ubuntu Sony 200ES did not work
So I switched over to Ubuntu from openSUSE after I witnessed a really good package manager and how quick this OS felt. There was only one little problem. My monitor. I could not get the video card to display more than 640x480 resolution on a Sony 200S monitor. I shot off a few google queries read up on the subject of nVidia drivers. Automatix and Envy are fantastic. Combined they almost solved my problems yet I suggest you look into both programs.

After trial and error, I finally went to the store to buy another card. Installed it and still it did not work. I hooked up the box to my wide screen and presto, it worked. I got 1024x768 resolution. So I swapped out my new card with the old card used Envy again and still no dice. Hmmm Then it dawned on me, it is not the card yet the monitor itself. I have a Viewsonic E771 right next to the Sony. I swapped monitors and presto again, the viewsonic was recognized by Ubuntu. It seems the Sony Multiscan 200ES did not autodetect with Ubuntu.

Well, my Sony at least works with my Mac. Hell ya!
It's Hot!!!!
This is the hottest I've ever felt in DaHouse. Luckily when I did build the garage, I did install A/C. Phew. So, I am here typingaway at a cool 77 degrees. Outside it has hit 110. The photo below shows a little less but trust me, it already hit 110.IMG_5582
