03:53.53RyanEhey clint.
03:56.37hell-rohey RyanE
03:56.49hell-rowhat's up?
03:58.14RyanEnot much.
03:58.23RyanEsister's wedding yesterday, lost of wampum.
03:58.28RyanEfriends party tonight, lots of wampum.
03:58.36RyanEwaaay overbudget.
03:58.39hell-roI am in Ohio, sitting at a crappy hotel in crappy downtown Dayton
03:59.01hell-roLOL, yeah, weddings are usually way too much work or money
03:59.02RyanEthat's the 'exciting travel' mentioned in Dax' Guru recruitment letter?
03:59.14hell-roNo, this is for the former company
03:59.22hell-romy final week, on the road
03:59.25RyanEmy sister's wedding was a lot of fun.  reception had dancing, and cool party.
03:59.27hell-rofigures
03:59.28RyanEjust too much food.
03:59.35hell-roI get screwed out of a vehiclue
03:59.44hell-ros/vehiclue/vehicle
03:59.45RyanEvehicle?
03:59.50RyanEyeah, that would suck.
04:00.06hell-roand I am stuck in a downtown that has the #1 highest crime rate in the nation per capita
04:00.08RyanEAt CES this past January, in Vegas, I drove down instead of flying, since then I'd have a car.
04:00.10hell-roor so I am told
04:00.11RyanEouch.
04:00.27RyanEbut you'll be travelling for Guru, no?
04:00.29hell-royeah, I rented a car and drove it from LA on my company's dime
04:00.44hell-royeah, traveling for Guru
04:00.46RyanEthis trip?
04:00.52hell-rodon't mind the travel
04:00.55RyanEdrove a car from LA this trip?
04:01.05hell-rono, Los Angeles in January for CES
04:01.05RyanELouisiana, or Los Angeles?  You lost me there.
04:01.07RyanEaha
04:01.26hell-rosorry, I get that way when I am frustrated with crap that shouldn't matter, but does
04:01.28RyanEthey reimbursed me for the travel to vegas, but only up to the amount the plane ticket would've cost.
04:01.38RyanEbut that was OK with me.
04:01.39hell-roI called my boss and she's like, well there's nothing I can do about it
04:01.48RyanEyeah, like she cares at this point...
04:01.49hell-roexcept that she is the one that authorizes this sort of shit
04:02.02hell-roand so, here I am living in hell
04:02.09RyanEat least you have internet.
04:02.13hell-roand I am going to give her an earful tomorrow
04:02.19RyanEyou can stick out one last trip.
04:02.22hell-royeah, that's 9.95 at this hotel
04:02.30RyanEwell worth it.
04:02.44hell-roI don't have to pay for it at the other hotel and I get a car that only costs 15/day
04:02.58RyanEheh.  yeah, you got screwed.  :)
04:02.59hell-rowhere is the trade off, oh and the other hotel is about $10/night cheaper
04:03.10hell-rofracking sucks
04:03.17hell-robut hey, I am almost done with them
04:03.37RyanEyep.  the company I left a year ago is being bought.
04:03.42hell-roand then I can get to do cool stuf with GL
04:03.58RyanEyeah, GL looks good for anyone who doesn't mind the travel.
04:04.11RyanEI think I've gotten too old to appreciate the travel.
04:04.17hell-royeah, it sure does, plus I get to learn a ton about linux....
04:04.23hell-rohow old?
04:04.29RyanEme?
04:04.37RyanE38.  39 in October.
04:04.46hell-rothat's not too old, I am 33
04:04.54RyanEbut I'm really a homebody.
04:04.58hell-robut you are a married fogey
04:04.59RyanEI like doing the yardwork.
04:05.06hell-ronothing wrong with that
04:05.17RyanElike being home, sleeping in my own bed.
04:05.27hell-royeah, coming home to my own bed is nice
04:05.27RyanEbut I think if I were in your situation, I wouldn't mind travel as much.
04:05.42hell-royeah, probably not, that's why I think its nice....
04:06.18RyanEI don't do much travel with C4.  I've only gone to CES...  maybe CES and CEDIA next time.
04:06.21RyanEcool.
04:06.25RyanEwhy FC3?  Legacy stuff?
04:06.51hell-rosame as RHEL4, RHCE is based upon it
04:07.16hell-roI suppose they might change it sometime soon, but not before I get my certification
04:07.41hell-roRyanE: thanx for letting me vent
04:07.44RyanEno problem.
04:07.49RyanElast cert I did was MSCD
04:07.55RyanEprobably 8 years ago.
04:08.10RyanEI stayed at a flea-bag Las Vegas hotel 3 years ago for CES...
04:08.16RyanEno Internet, and really scrungy
04:08.19hell-roI've never done certification for anything, generally, I think for an individual it's a waste of money
04:08.19RyanEwaaay of strip.
04:08.24RyanEyep
04:08.25RyanEcompany paid
04:08.29RyanEand I never did anything with it.
04:08.42hell-robut if the company needs it, its nice, plus it looks good on a resume
04:08.51hell-ronot that I need to brush mine up for a long while now
04:08.55RyanEyeah, but a 10 year old MCSD isn't.  :)
04:09.03hell-rotrue, ture
04:09.13RyanEI don't like travelling east...
04:09.26RyanEI always end up going to bed on MST, having to wake on EST
04:09.32RyanEso I get like 4 hours of sleep...
04:09.48hell-royeah, 2hrs kills ya, but when its 7 or 8 its worse
04:10.02RyanEyeah, that's bad.
04:10.06RyanECA is always nice, though...
04:10.24hell-robut its nice to come back from there, then you gain 8 hours of free time
04:10.33RyanEyep
04:10.52hell-roI love the travel part, if I didn't actually have to work each day, it would even be better, but hey, you gotta make a living
04:10.58RyanEyep
04:11.24hell-ronot really all that bad, but funny
04:11.28RyanEI like trying new restaurants...  like Thai or something else you wouldn't normally go to.
04:11.37hell-roAgree to the License Adreement...
04:11.46RyanENO !!!
04:11.49hell-royeah, Indian is always nice
04:11.50RyanEdon't do that!!!
04:12.02RyanEYou just agreed to a voluntary lobotomy!
04:12.08hell-roI never will agree to an Adreement
04:12.10RyanEno, wait, that's Windows ME...
04:12.35hell-roor XP
04:12.57RyanEat least XP is stable enough to use as an OS, even though I still prefer Linux.
04:13.01RyanEit's not painful to use for work.
04:13.03hell-rotrue, true
04:13.17hell-rofc3 is botting for the first time on Otis' laptop
04:13.25RyanEI've decided it's not worth it to be an OS bigot.
04:13.33hell-royeah, it never is....
04:13.40hell-royou end up using more than one anyway
04:14.10RyanEI need to reinstall the Linux partition on this machine.
04:14.20hell-rowhy?
04:14.22RyanEI'm in XP on here most of the time, and when I repartitioned, I gave too much to Linux...
04:14.31RyanEand it's FC4, and the stupid touchpad doesn't work right.
04:14.37RyanEI think I'll try FC5
04:14.57hell-roI want to do FC5, but I think I'll upgrade to it
04:14.58RyanEor Suse 10
04:15.07hell-roSUSE 10 sucks IMHO
04:15.12RyanEyeah, since I want to adjust the partition size, I think I'll do the reinstall
04:15.37RyanEMy desktop is Suse 9.3, and it needs to be upgraded too, but I don't use it as much now that I don't work at home, so it's low priority
04:15.50RyanEmy server is Gentoo, and it too needs upgrade.
04:16.15hell-roYou can just adjust the partition
04:16.19RyanEI've had 4 different Linux distros on 4 different machines at one point.
04:16.20hell-robut its fun to reinstall
04:16.28RyanEI had debian on my Myth box...
04:16.32hell-royeah, we did that too, Chris and I
04:16.36RyanEI think I still like FC best.
04:16.49hell-rogentoo, ubuntu, FC4 and CentOS
04:17.00hell-roalthough CentOS and FC4 are basically the same
04:17.01RyanEsuse, debian, gentoo, FC3
04:17.06hell-roI love ubuntu
04:17.12RyanEI did Gentoo on my laptop when I worked at Claredi.
04:17.14RyanEthe whole 3 years.
04:17.25RyanEWorst experience, I stripped binaries in the airport, lost all X...
04:17.25hell-roI feels like FC, but has a much better install too in apt-get
04:17.27RyanEon a trip...
04:17.34hell-rolol
04:17.36RyanEfortunately, I had full sources, so I rebuilt X...  Took 3 hours.
04:17.40RyanEbut it all worked again.
04:17.47hell-roall in a layover?
04:17.57RyanEhad to finish it in a hotel.
04:18.01hell-roah
04:18.07RyanEbut got it working before client knew.
04:18.23hell-rog4u
04:18.50RyanEhad a different time with Windows 98... screwed up modem, bought a modem at mall, asked if return policy was that I could return it, used it, fixed Windows internal modem setup, returned modem next day...
04:18.55RyanEalso on a trip...
04:19.07hell-ro:-D
04:19.15RyanEno wonder I don't care for travel... :)
04:19.38hell-rothat's not why
04:19.43RyanEnaw
04:19.48hell-royou have a family to worry about
04:19.51hell-roand they like to see you
04:20.08RyanEI don't worry about them much when I travel, though.  Paige is pretty capable with the kids.
04:20.14RyanEand I have family around locally.
04:20.26hell-rothat's not the point
04:20.45hell-royou like to see them...but then again, you said you basically were at home for a long time
04:21.04hell-roso, I guess they would miss you more if you started traveling more
04:21.21RyanEI've done both.  I had one consulting job where for 1 month, I was gone all week, came back on weekends.  finally moved the whole family to Illinois for 7 months.
04:21.39RyanEand I've also worked from home for years at a time, but you're probably right.
04:21.40hell-royeah, if I had a fam like yours that's what I would do
04:22.04hell-roI know I miss my son when I am gone for extended periods
04:22.04RyanEif I did travel more, they'd know what it really meant, and it would probably be harder.
04:22.05RyanEI'll bet.
04:22.51hell-robut it means a lot more when I am home to spend time with him, even if he doesn't like it
04:22.57hell-robut usually he does
04:22.59RyanEhehe.
04:23.04RyanE'even if he doesn't like it'...
04:23.10hell-royeah
04:23.11RyanEhehe.
04:23.27hell-rohe threw a fit this morning and told me he hated me because I was telling him not to lie
04:23.35RyanEHAHAHA
04:23.38RyanEfunny.
04:23.45hell-roand trying to explain what a lie is, that's a challenge
04:23.50RyanEyes it is.
04:24.18hell-roits that 6yo stage where he likes to tell me things that happen aren't his fault and blames it on inanimate objects
04:24.32RyanEyeah, like *that* is going to fly...
04:24.41hell-robut he thinks it will
04:24.48RyanEWe've had the 4 year old tell us we're ruining her life.
04:24.54hell-roI sure miss him already, and I've only been here about 2 hours
04:25.06RyanEyeah, and I'm sure it helps to talk about it... :)
04:25.10hell-rohaha, yeah, he's said stuff like that before too
04:25.31hell-roah, I don't mind talking about my one great success in life....
04:25.42hell-roI have many small successes, but he's the greatest one
04:26.03RyanEhttp://www.ericksonfamily.com/gallery/JulenesWedding/IMG_0445  <-- Can you spot the cranky 2yo?
04:26.15RyanEyeah, I'm with you on that one...
04:26.33hell-rooooh, that's a hard one, is it the blonde one?
04:26.41RyanEhehe  BINGO!
04:26.48RyanEit sure aint the *bald* one...
04:26.50hell-rooh wait, they're all blonde
04:27.09hell-robut not from you
04:27.19RyanEyou like bald girls?
04:27.20RyanEhuh?
04:27.21RyanE:)
04:27.23hell-rono
04:27.37hell-rofor his lack of follicles
04:27.50RyanEnaw, don't need comforting.
04:27.54hell-rohe will rise a mighty man with brains of mush
04:27.56RyanEI'm at one with my situation.
04:28.19hell-royeah, me too, I am at one with your situation (BALD MAN!!)  ahahahahahahaha
04:28.27RyanEnot much you can do that's not tacky...  rather be mocked in public this way than mocked in private.
04:28.54hell-roprobably true, my bro is losing his hair at 25 and we tease him regularly
04:29.06RyanEnothing worse than a bad hairpiece, though.
04:29.12RyanEor a combover.
04:29.29hell-roat least where hair is concerned
04:30.26hell-rowell, its 12:30 here, I should hit the hay soon
04:30.32RyanEgood talking to you.
04:30.39hell-royeah, you too
04:30.46RyanEhave a safe trip.  we'll miss you at games.
04:31.06hell-roI am sure I will be on tomorrow and the rest of the week, so you can tell me how it all went at BG night
04:31.14RyanEhow I kicked their butts.
04:31.19hell-rothanx, I always miss game night...
04:31.22RyanEif I make it.
04:31.24hell-rouhuh
04:31.29hell-rolikely story
04:31.34RyanEnever know.
04:31.38RyanEtake care.
04:31.40hell-rog'night
04:31.41RyanElater.
