I went home last weekend to see the family and check up on the blueberry bush that my grandpa set out when I was little. We used to have four, but disease and not having the time to take care of them cut us down to only one. I think it would be awesome if Dad planted four or so more of these guys (hint hint) next spring. I love growing things, and I wish I had the space here in ATL to have a mini garden. There’s nothing better than fresh, home grown tomatoes!
Wow it’s been a while since I last posted. I guess that means I haven’t bought anything cool–thank the Lord for restraint–or nothing interesting has happened. I was cruising the archives of my little virtual space here on anxaw, and I found some old posts that I would love to revisit. So, dearest reader, follow me chronologically back to the times of research labs, ghetto housing, and working IT at a law firm.
A Memorial to the Unnamed. Read the riveting tale of a heroic golden algae eater, and how he likes to hide behind rocks.
Dude, Where’s my car? Remember that time my car almost got stolen? No? Details inside.
A personal struggle. Nothing profound here, just Jduv vs A Tie.
W32.Bobber. I wrote a virus and installed it on a co workers machine–well, sorta ;).
Whaaaa? The adventures of jduv as related to lottery commercials.
So I was almost in a rap video. Apple bottom jeans, boots wif da furrrrrrrrr!!!111
I hope to produce more of such epic content sometime in the future. Reading through these has inspired me to write more. Hopefully I can write a couple of those posts that I have been promising to produce–such as my theorem 1.1 post, and why I like console video games over PC video games. Guess I’ll get cranking!
I have been looking for good set of closed around-the-ear headphones for a long time. After reading tons of reviews I settled on a set of Bose Tri-Port cans. These are not noise canceling headphones–I didn’t like the idea of having to change batteries regardless of how long they last.
This was quite possibly the best sub $150 purchase I have made in a long time; right up there with my Boss TU-2 Tuner. Pair these babies with my recently procured Apogee Duet audio interface and you are enveloped in a world of aural ecstasy. Bass hits are punchy and deep, highs come through clean and crisp, and mids are pronounced, but not overbearing and muddy. The Tri-Port’s are quite comfortable to wear, and they block out some ambient noise; my new best friend during coding sessions at work =D.
