I *finally* got my Hulk the other night in EVE Online. I’ve had the skills to fly one of these guys for a couple months now, but my lack of gaming time hadn’t really allowed me to afford one of these bad boys of mining. And what a huge difference it has made. Of course Marko has got all his goodies up as well, so that helps (Leadership5, Foreman5, Mining Link, etc.). Rigging the Hulk w/ type2 strip miners and crystals, along with having Exhumers5 I was able to clear 20mil … Continue reading
Well I’ve finished my first week at the new job and it looks like it’s going to be a lot of work but a lot of really cool stuff too! I’m really looking forward to getting into it.

I’ve had two major problems with the plumbing in the two weeks I’ve been in … Continue reading

I -finally- found my good PC Speakers and got those hooked up last night, ah blissful death metal trance never sounded so good, LOL. Just discovered a couple of interesting artists through Amazon’s MP3 downloading service. I’d almost call them retro-rave but the current label is EBM (Electric Body Music). A couple weeks ago I bought three albums by Heimataerde, and then last night I got one from Grendel, and another from Dawn of Ashes. The lyrics are rather disturbing/bleak, but I love the dance-electronica music, very ironic placement of … Continue reading
The pizza place, “Tastebuds,” was a success. Also nice that it’s within walking distance, but not so convenient that I’d be going there every day. They’re far better than the chain-style pizzas, but I saw another pizza place down by the town square which I may check out too. I went to the local micro-brew as well, and their beer was super, food was good, if a little pricey for what you get – at least for lunch, maybe dinner time would be a better time to check that place out. … Continue reading
