Today I got the highest score I have ever gotten in dopewars for the palm. I got $169,636,441. It was during a meeting. I tried to submit it to the website for dopewars, but it didn't work :( I had another meeting today with Sun representatives talking up there new Sun Blade 8000 series and there 4500 and 4600 series. Pretty sweet machines. Way more powerful than anything I need right now though.
Kat started working for Montgomery county hospital on monday. She already hates it. I was hoping she would last at least a few months, but what can you do. I have been modding out linux on my laptop so that it is more windows-user friendly. I am trying to convince Kat to use it. It took forever to figure out all the packages I needed to compile DRI for my video card. ATI does not support it because it's a piece of crap. You cannot get shockwave for linux! Fuck you Adobe/Macromedia/whatever. Bastards. BioWare makes a linux client for Neverwinter Nights. I spent last night just downloading the file. It's 1.12 GB!! It took 3.5 hours over my dsl. Unfortunately my DSL sucks a lotta ass because the wiring in my house was done by some retard. I really should replace all of the wiring, but it's not something I have been focused on. I would rather get static IP FIOS. It's available, but I have to get my money situation worked out with Kat first.
We got another baby turtle, and I named him spinach because he has a bright green back. He's a yellow bellied, red-eared slider. He's terrified of the other turtle, Icarus, because he is about half the size. He hasn't been eating and I am worried that he won't start eating anytime soon. I can't wait to get out of this cramped little flourescent lumination box of isolation.

So I heard recently that Danny DeBois died. It kinda creeps me out. What is with young people just going and dying off like this? I don't want to go to any more funerals. In other news, people have their priorities in America all messed up.
One mother who didn't like the cover explains she was concerned about her 13-year-old son seeing it."I shredded it," said Gayle Ash, of Belton, Texas, in a telephone
interview. "A breast is a breast — it's a sexual thing.
He didn't need to see that."
COME ON NOW. It's a breast. It's not even a nipple. Your kids probably see more than that on MTV, or in high school. God forbid my little Billy see tits. If I were that woman I would worry more about my moral dilemnas with normal sexuality having the adverse effect of turning my son gay.

I am in the process again of updating djekz.com, so a few features may change or look different, or be just plain broken. I updated my resume on monster.com recently and I have been getting headhunters hitting me up left and right. Who knew Unix and Linux were so in demand? I started chipping away at my collection of pictures last night. I should have put some up, but I was spending quality time with my old lady. We didn't feel like posting internet pictures. Whatever. Maybe tonight. It is SO goddamn hot out it's unbelievable. It's supposed to be ~ 100 degrees or hotter today. I hate the heat. I need to work out today, I feel flabby. I'm not really, but I just feel like it after not working out for a few days. I keep thinking neverwinter nights will end, and then there is another level/town/cave. That's okay. I'm sure I will be bored at work again when it ends. We got a hampster yesterday for Isis. She wants to call it snover, which was the name her guinea pig had. This animal is not even the same species, and it certainly does not act at all similar to snover. On top of that, the hampster is a boy, and the guinea pig was a girl. I tried to explain this to Isis but I guess when you are a four year old Taurus you are steadfast in your ways. That's okay, I'll come up with my own name. I came across a good quote today:
Real programmers don't draw flowcharts. Flowcharts are, after all, the
illiterate's form of documentation. Cavemen drew flowcharts; look how
much good it did them.
I thought I would share that with you because I thought it was funny. Anyway, I also recently created this porn harvesting script that redisplays content on another page. I would give you the link, but then I might just have to kill you. Maybe later. I swear I will get on those pictures soon. I have to work this saturday night, and I did last saturday night. I hate working saturday nights. I guess it's not so bad though. It's better than starving!

The honeymoon was beautiful. California is a wonderful place in many ways. It's not perfect though. The north coast is so amazing. I have so many pictures from the wedding, the forth of july, and the honeymoon that I have not sorted through. Probably close to 1000. So it's been a task I have been putting off. I plan to rewrite all of the base code for my pages using python. I will probably use an SQL database of some kind as well. I want to do stuff with AIX just to know it too. I need to start jamming and making music again. Computers are boring. So little creative license. So many things to do, and learn. So World War 3 will soon start the way things have been going in the mideast. My baby turtle Aquarius is dying because he won't eat or take antibiotics. I have destroyed a friendship in a way I don't know how to repair. Finally, I found out something so disturbing recently that it's devouring me. I cannot say anything about it to anyone. Things have been kinda messed up in the world right now. So many things that need attention, and all I can do is play neverwinter nights to run away. Where to start?

I made some changes to my site as well as my niche of cytoplastik.com. I have added ads. Some people will undoubtly think this is lame. All I have to say to those people is, host your own content. I'm tired of paying so much for my connection and making no return. I want to put my finances towards other things. Maybe your life you have enough money to do most of the things you want to. I don't. I have a lot of expenses. That's what happens when you have a family. I don't have the time or energy to throw a band or musical or art project together. I have tried, and it just hasn't worked. Doing something like that takes time, patience, and dedication. I have very little of these things left. I want to see a return. I am sorry if you think what I am doing compromises values, conflicts with your morals, etc. I am interested in being able to make enough money that I can actually create interesting content instead of random crap that I type up at work. My page consists of very little meaningful content at the moment. There are lots of pictures I suppose, but not so many blurbs of useful text. I think I want to start a guitar tab source here. I know I can tab most things out better than they are on the internet in their current form. Half of the tabs out there are done by some kid who knows nothing about music, tunings, or guitar style and are totally inaccurate. Even these so called "authentic" tabs. I also want to totally redo my website in python just to learn it. I also am tired of the current layout. I have decided it needs to go (djekz.com that is). Also in the works is a custom spam filter management system that integrates with spamassassin, hosts.deny, and the relaydelay greylisting filter. I started on it a little, but I will need to do a lot more before it is anywhere near being functional and safe for users. I can fancy it all up with some cool javascript and stuff. Anyways. I am leaving for California on my honeymoon tomorrow, so if the server crashes, I don't care. Bah! what does it matter anyway. DJEKZ.COM has been getting more average visits this month than cytoplastik.com. Have a great week

Kat and Pete  My Wife Kat  Kat's bridesmaids. Sarah, Emily, Gwen, Niki and Kara 
So Kat's dad was going to buy us tickets to CA with his frequent flyer miles. Instead he paid cash, picked flights that each lasted ~ 15 hours with multiple layovers, non-refundable, and never consulted anyone about it. Needless to say, Kat and I were both pretty upset, but we decided to just kinda grin an bear it. Not look a gift horse in the mouth you know? Kat this week decides she cannot bear the thought of 30 hours worth of plane/layover time. I totally agree, fuck being in airports, it's such a pain in the ass these days. I just wanna get in, get it over with and get out. Like getting your blood drawn or fixing DNS servers on a friday night. Anyway. We get the tickets, and we haven't told Kat's dad. Her stepmom forwards us the ticket info an email the other day and it turns out Kat's dad had spelled Lesko with a "c". Totally unusable. Good thing we bought the tickets ourselves! Unfortunately that was the last of the money we had. So what would you do? Would you tell him?

The title says it all. Dan came up from florida this weekend. It was exciting to say the least. Drunken good times had by all. I also have been rather screwed at work with some server-ish issues. I will fix it dammit. Christ. I love volume manager you know?
