I finally received my PS2 to USB connector I ordered from Best Buy. My HP laptop doesn’t have a USB connector, and I wanted to hook it up to my monitor and keyboard, etc, and I don’t own a port replicator. There are two USB ports on my laptop, and the wireless keyboard/mouse I own [...]

Well, I got a visit from the repo man. I had a friend who was storing his car in my garage, and he sort of “went away” a few months ago. Well, I was stuck with this car, and since I pay 35$ a month for a garage, I figured I was wasting my money.
Anyways, [...]

Napster.
The long forgotten music downloading application. Well, a while back when the “new” Napster came out, I signed up for it, downloading some singles at 99 cents a piece. Well, today I decided to take the plunge. I signed up for Napster Premium for like 12 bux a month, and I am getting a free [...]

Today as I was just hanging out, VH1 had a “Surreal Life” marathon on, I am guessing the first season or something. Anyways, what a stupid concept. Lets go find six celebrities that haven’t worked in about 5 years (at least), and make them live together for two weeks, giving them missions to do. The [...]

Last weekend my mom bought me a new guitar, for my birthday (a few months late), but still it was still nice of her.
It is an Olympia guitar, black, solid face, electric acoustic guitar. The sound I get out of it is much better than my Samick acoustic. My parents bought me the Samick for [...]

Strings….nice tool. In Unix/Linux, there is a utility called “strings” which you can use to search files/directories for strings (duh). Anyways, if you want it for Windows XP, you can download it at sysinternals (along with a ton of other cool tools.) I use it alot…for example: In Visual Studio.NET, you can set words to [...]

Wow..Cisco Netflow. What a pain in the a$$. Anyways, I think I am going
to have the only .NET Netflow Capture and Parsing program in the
world. Hopefully. It really is tough to parse the packets and decode
the correctly, but I am on the right track. Ethereal helped me a bit in
that department. Ethereal has a built [...]

I have coded a WinForms marquee scroller program in VB.net/VS2003. Everything works great, but some users have noticed a bug.
When my program is running, IE stops displaying tool tips (TITLE and ALT tags). When my program is closed, they start working again.
I have debugged and went through all the code, and seemed to have found [...]

Well, I installed the Visual Basic Express product on my “home” laptop. It barely runs, but it still works. It is cool, a little different from VS 2003.
SQL Server Express doesn’t work on XP Home edition, what a rip. Anyways, I started on my Web Bot. You put in a URI, and then it goes [...]

More like Super Drunky Ball. Or Super Monkey Drunk. This weekend, me and some buds decided to play super monkey ball on gamecube. With a twist.
Any time you die, you take a shot of Blue 100. Geeez we were wasted in like 30 minutes. Helluva lot of fun though!!
Super Monkey Ball 2
