Pontiac

Yesterday GM said in order to avoid going bankrupt they were going to do away with the Pontiac line of vehicles. Good bye Vibe, Solstice and all the rest driving off into the sunset. Will GM manage to dig themselves out of the hole they are in? Or will they continue to plummet into the bottomless abyss. Maybe it is time to restructure and start a new, 'time for change'? Only the hands of time will tell if GM can pull this off and become the powerhouse they once were.

My College Advisor

Wow the weekend in the woods was awesome and the weather was great. I'm all refreshed and ready to start a new week. My college advisor called me the other day to see how I was doing. He seems to be really interested in me and wants to help me succeed. I'm starting to get really excited about going to college. Just a little over 3 months and I'll be in the thick of it. I image my peers will be somewhat baffled by a 50 something year old in class with them. I'll let you know once I've begun attending classes. Well that's it for now I'll update you again soon.

The Weekend

Well it's Thursday morning and the end of the week for me. I start a long weekend of camping and enjoying the outdoors in the morning. This is the weekend for our District Camporee at Camp Durant in Carthage. There will be about 350 of us learning about the stars and enjoying the woods. There is nothing like getting away from the hustle and bustle of the outside world and being away from all electronics. It will be a real opportunity to relax and recharge our batteries. Tonight I will give the gift of life, blood donation cost me nothing yet it is such a great gift to give. So until next week be safe and have a great weekend.

Search Warrant ?????

Using Linux or Non-windows operating systems can get your stuff taken? Check this out the most ridiculous thing I've read.
As an avid computer user, I find it so weird that if you don't follow the norm, you must be doing something wrong. I enjoy exploring different operating systems and seeing what they are capable of. I also beta test a bunch of applications and systems, so I guess we all should be watching to see who's watching our key strokes.

Preparing for the Fall Semester

Getting ready to attend college full time as a Freshman has been an adventure and a real learning experience. I really enjoy the postcards from Campbell University. They have me planning for my over night visit with my parents (LOL). I asked Donna (my beautiful wife) if she thought I should live in the dorm, she laughed. I thought it would be a great learning experience. Any way it'll be a big change, Daddy going to college. That's it for now I'll post again when something new has happen. Until then thanks for reading my blog and be safe.
