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!

If you write a blog and never post it to Facebook will anybody read it?

My guess is no...  Let's test the hypothesis! Facebook and similar "social" feeds feel so bad to my soul.  I find them as a total waste of time and it's time to really really delete these things once and for all.  I've been hanging onto Instagram as I find it much less toxic.  Pictures often give off a more positive vibe than your aunts reshare of politically slanted news or your neighbor's cousin's wall of text complaining about how there is not Olive Garden within 100 miles of their house.  However, that doesn't change the fact that I am the product being sold on this Instagram.  Algorithms are being worked out to find just the right number of post to leave in between advertisements for me to feel most engaged and most likely to click.  Which news parody sites or webcomics I should like next are also constantly being updated and reconfigured based on my behaviour.  Facebook and its subsidiaries are not the only companies with this massive ...

Writing Goals

  Recently I came to the conclusion that I should write more often.  That is, I believe, I should start to consider myself a "writer."  That's the main reason there's been a bit of an increase in publishing to this blog (going from zero over the past few years to a couple times a month is a pretty huge jump).     I, like most humans, have thoughts and opinions which are a product of the times and places in which I live.  I figure I can do my part for future historians and write a few of them down.  I also just might have enough creative juice to pump out a story or two. This blog   I'd like to post to this blog at least once a week from now on, or at a minimum once a month.  Really, anything at all would be better than what I've been doing.  I'll mainly write about my life, family, interests, and opinions about, current events and local and state politics (I'll try to steer clear of national issues for my own sanity).  Pretty...

Install ownCloud 2.0 on Ubuntu Server.

    I recently stumbled upon a tutorial on how to  setup ownCloud on a Debian machine .  I had actually never heard of ownCloud until reading this tutorial but now it is one of the projects I am most excited about.  ownCloud is an open source project that allows you to use your own server to store files, songs and do a bunch of other stuff.  It is similar to the many cloud services available on the web except it never leaves your "custody."     One very easy way to start using ownCloud is to install ownCloud 1.1 from the Ubuntu repository by running:  $ sudo apt-get install owncloud     However, ownCloud 1.1 is pretty boring compared to the super sexiness of ownCloud 2.0 in my opinion.  So if you are cool with drab old 1.1 then go ahead and just apt-get it.  But if you want the sexiness of 2.0 on your Ubuntu server please follow along... Getting ownCloud 2 up and running! Log into your Ubuntu server and install...
