NOTE: I’ve tried making a YouTube style video to illustrate this process a little better, but it ended up being over 30 minutes long, and my voice is not really pleasant to listen to, LOL. So what I think I’ll try to do is break it down into smaller chunks of video and maybe take some serious allergy pills so I’m not quite so “nasally” sounding – OY! I’ve made my own tarot cards before and it worked out really well – after working through some not-so-great prototypes. So I thought I’d … Continue reading

Actually I made this request once before many, many years ago as part of a “Queer Nation” demonstration, but since it didn’t have all of the particulars (like baptism date, confirmation date, etc. etc.) “The Church™” didn’t honor the request.

Since I was learning Redhat, the instructor there recommended getting CentOS, since it’s built off of the Redhat source code (and you can get it for free). Next I had to locate a machine to install it on. The most accessible machine I had that wasn’t already in use was an old G4 PowerMac. … Continue reading
So I’m attending a Red-Hat Linux class down in Phoenix this week and it’s been great – except for the accommodations. I’m staying at the Sheraton Downtown (reservations were made by my boss – I would’ve stayed elsewhere – like the Hilton right across the street from the course location). The drive down to Phoenix sucked ass – there had been an accident about forty miles out from Phoenix, so the traffic was bumper-to-bumper/stop-and-go for several miles down the Black Canyon freeway. When I finally got to Phoenix and arrived at … Continue reading
