You should write in your journal.

It is hard for me to find Christian music that I like. I can't stand the "Tops in Pops" that passes for Christian music that I hear on most radio stations (online or on-air). I realize they have to pay the bills, but they might as well be saying "Ooh Baby" as "Ooh Jesus". Well, I have found that I really like the rock channel on crosswalk.com. I had to fork over 5.95 a month, but having something that didn't just come from a toothpaste commercial is worth it.! resume normal transmission...

Sometimes I feel drawn to very opionionated, knowledgeable, and downright abrasive people. I think of Dvorak [PC Mag] and Eugenia Loli-Queru [OSNews]. They are both very smart people with a lot of good insight, but at times very contentious. I think it is because secretly I would like to let a few people "have it" for their inane comments, but I have too much politeness to do it. I have to flame vicariously!

Are you like me, and you have 3 or 4 bookmarks you keep going to all day. For me it is Slashdot, OSNews, Linux Today and Yahoo Mail. I guess it is a case of 100 million channels and nothing to watch!

I've always struggled with the time to write. When I am on vacation (which isn't often), the writing seems to flow freely. During the grind of work and daily activities, I never find time to write. I guess the truth is, you always find time for the things you love, so I guess I don't love writing! I sure do like messing with 'Puters! I like fixing up old laptops. My latest is a P90 - I just upgraded the ram from 16MB to 48MB (its max). I have OpenBSD on this, and use full-screen VNC to run a reasonable powered desktop from another machine. It's my version of recycling.

I'm just an ordinary born-again, spirit-filled BSD- and Linux-loving geek. Considering my brain has been melted due to my faith, I think I'm doing pretty well.

Sometimes I feel like I am a pioneer into new and unexplored territory. Other times I feel like I should have bought a map!
