Motocross Helmet

Got my helmet last night. It cost me 90$ USD. I will use the goggles from the paintball set for riding until i can get a good one for the trail; my eyes are all grainy from the dust.

Soon, I shall have all my gears; the size thing is killing me, they don’t cater for small people.

BeyondRaid or unRaid

I am currently in need of some sort of backup storage for the files I have across the network, and as such have come upon a dilemma. Do I buy the Drobo or build my own Server and use the OS from Lime Technology.

Lets start with storage space using only 1TB disks:

Drobo: 2.7 TB Available for data (4 Disks)

MD1510: 15 TB Available (16 Disks)

Filesystem Support:

Drobo: NTFS. HFS+, FAT32, EXT3

MD1510: ReiserFS

Network Ready

Drobo: Yes (with DroboShare)

MD1510: Yes

Cost of Unit Only:

Drobo + DroboShare: $629.00 (Newegg)

MD1510: $1249.00

Ease of Use:

Drobo: Easy (Very)

MD1510: To upgrade a disk or add/replace storage requires a power cycle.

How much Data to I have to move?:

Media Center: 1,563 GB ~ 1.5 TB

Drobo: 1.2 TB Available

MD1510: 13.5 TB Available

Startup Cost:

Drobo + DroboShare + 3 Disks: $629 + $120  x 3 = $989.00

MD1510 + 3 Disks: $1249 + $120 x 3 = $1609.00

Now, Am I willing to spend $700.00 extra at the start for more space down the road. This is what I would like to ask you guys.

Trouble with the RSS

Dude, I have been having some trouble having some feeds integrated into the site with all the updates taking place behind the scenes with wordpress. So for now, will have to do a work-around for the tweets, and pray that I can get the last.fm feed up again.

We are also looking at a new site layout, but I am having trouble deciding on layout and look and feel. The theme I have up now is pretty simple but it has no pop for the coming year; will have to fix that soon.

Well, lets hope all can be fixed soon. Chat about something kool and relevant later.

Cold Outside; Party Needed

Dude, even though it is a bit chilly on the outside, I could do with sometime on the outside. Anyone know of a good party in Manhattan, drop me a line. I am almost ready to go out; just need to jump into the clothes.

At the Office

Currently at the office, I am mad tired. I have no idea why I am here right now, because work will not get done with me in this situation.

Well, a little about today since I am here.

Got a couple of pages from the developers today; the code is the pits, having neck pains just thinking about it. Need to find a way to get them to code a bit cleaner and using xhtml. I don’t think that is a lot to ask for.

Well, going back to the “job” :( [In need of the illusive vacation]

Happy Birthday

Yeah, It’s my party, I could cry if i want to, cry if i want to. ;’(

Another year bits the dust. I am now older, but definately not wiser, and still thinking about the future.

Well, today I see another year pass by. I wonder if anyone will remember.

Happy Birthday Obasi. Have a good one. Don’t try to kill yourself; unless I try to do it first :D .

Reflecting while washing clothes

Have you ever had a time during your day or year when you think about life and why one exists.

Today during my wait for the calzone at Pizza Hut, I was contemplating why I was in this world, and what I can do to go through it without having much worry. Actually I have been thinking about why I was even alive, strange, but I do this very often without finding an answer. Well, hopefully I can find one, can’t worry about not having one now can we.

Missing You

Hello Folks,

Have I been neglecting you all this time. Well, I hope not, for those who follow the twitter feed will know that I am still alive and online.

Well, lets get caught up shall we.

In the news of George, we have been having a rough time at work. Working too much and not allowing for much we time, and having the people get on nerves. We think this will have to change in the coming this month because younger we are not getting :p.

Oh yes, I had the car serviced last week, what a difference new oil, oil and air filter makes; sweet.

The George plan for this week should be one day of work and hopefully the rest of it on a plane to somewhere, anywhere is fine. I have been thinking of attending Oktoberfest this year. Might as well have a drink before it is too late to have one. If anyone knows of a nice place to stay whilst there, please do drop a mail or comment; it will be greatly appreciated.

Also had a great idea for a project that can hopefully sustain itself while make a little extra cash on the side for me. Will have to roll it out completely this month, with or without the help of my partner in crime.

Well, that is all from me.

Oops, almost forgot. HAPPY Belated BIRTHDAY to my uncle, sorry I did not call you on friday. Someone else at the office also had a birthday on that day as well, Happy Belated. Hope you guys had an enjoyable day and hope you see lots more.

All Grumpy

Been a bit grump over the last week. Took a few days off from the cell phone and had myself a whole slew of voice mails to listen to, jeez.

I needed some time to myself and took it, to bad for anyone else.

I hope the rest of the month goes better.

Happy New Year

Yeah, as another one of those years rolls by I hope we can all take a look back and make the necessary changes to ensure a brighter future for us and the next generation.

Here, is to a year without war, a little less fighting; can’t eliminate that now can we with all the history we a drunk with, huh; and a better idea on how to protect the environment. Remember folks, war exists because someone makes money on it, and lots of it.

Well, I wish everyone a Happy New Year, may all your desires be fulfilled. :) . Take it easy in this year, one foot infront of the other.
