Going to Mexico.

    Next week I'll be flying down to LA with my wife and daughter and hopping on a ship down to Mexico. We'll be on a Disney cruise ship for a week doing whatever the heck we feel like.  I'm planning on taking lots of pictures and writing about our trip, mostly just to be able to look back and remember the trip better.

    This is probably the biggest vacation either my wife or I have taken and it is the first time our little daughter will be out of the country.  I've been on lots of charter boats for deep sea fishing but never a big ship like this.  I really like being on the ocean and we love Disney in my house so this should be the best freaking trip ever!...  I have high expectations.


Disney + Ocean + Mexico + Family = Happy awesome fun time!

Playing Mari0 on Ubuntu 12.04

If you are looking to play Mari0 on Ubuntu you may have run into a bit of a roadblock because love 0.8.0 is not yet available for Precise from the love-unstable ppa.  No need to worry though the .deb file for Oneiric will work just fine.   First download the .deb from launchpad, either amd64 or i386 .  Then install dependencies by running. $ sudo apt-get install libdevil1c2 libmng1 libfreetype6 libgl1-mesa-glx liblua5.1-0 libphysfs-1.0-0 libsdl1.2debian libopenal1 libogg0 libvorbis0a libvorbisfile3 libflac8 libflac++6 libmpg123-0 libc6 libgcc1 libphysfs1 libstdc++6 Then install the love-unstable with dpkg ~/Downloads$ dpkg -i love-unstable_0.8.0~r1028-0oneiric1_<amd64/i386>.deb Run  love-unstable on mari0  ~/mari0$ love-unstable mari0_1.3.love Enjoy what is possibly the coolest crossover game of all time.

Overcome evil with good.

Romans 12 is a beautiful passage of scripture.  You can say that about many parts of The Bible but this description of life following the risen Jesus is beautiful.  This morning reading this section I realized how nicely this wraps up: "Do not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good." We can fight evil without seeking out revenge.  We can live wisely without thinking of ourselves as wise.  We can be humble.  And, above all, we can love and serve God and one another. Transform your mind.

Bike disaster leads to awesome discovery about my neighborhood.

  While replacing the tire on my front wheel last week my quick release just completely fell apart.  Being a bicycle maintenance noob I said to myself "No!  Now I need to go buy a whole new wheel!" (and quick because this is my  commuter bike ) I quickly hopped in the car and drove down town to the local bike shop downtown, which was closed.  Apparently the owner is "biking and eating in Italy." I have only ever known of this one bike shop in The Dalles.  In desperation I did a search for bike shops near The Dalles and low and behold a location popped up just blocks from my house.   T & Nae's Cycles is a little appointment only bike shop a couple operates out of their house.  I didn't know it was appointment only at the time so I just hoofed it up there to see if they could help me fix my bike.  Luckily somebody was home and willing to help me out.  Once I explained to him my problem he  got me the part I needed (for free! ...
