Third Day

Not the group, it’s my third day of being a full time employee at Christianson & Associates! On paper though, my first day was Friday the 16th, but I took the day off for graduation.
So far, it’s been the same as when I was part time. Though there seems to be an air of belonging [...]

I’m so sick: Part Dul

Dul (or Dool) is two in Korean.
I’m getting rather sick of this whole worship debate/battle my church. One camp grumbles that we don’t sing enough hymns and the other wonders why the first group cares what songs are sung. Personally, I just wonder why we only seem to sing the same songs each week and [...]

Green

It’s been a while since the test, but I did get my green belt in TKD! Woot! (The test was at the end of February.)
Over the past year that I’ve been doing TKD, I’ve noticed that I’m (somewhat) more confident in my forms and kicking. Especially the past month or so since Master Jon got [...]

DNS relations

A couple days ago my servers were unavailable, not because any actual problem with the server, but with the DNS. Turns out that the domain I was using for the nameserver address expired and someone else registered it. Quite the bummer, but an easy fix by attaching new nameservers to the domain. So now everything [...]

The Fold - Gravity

The Fold - Gravity
Let’s start at the beginning of this story
I was just a boy with nowhere to call home
There I was building houses on the sand
I could see that I was only running circles in my mind
It just goes on and on and on until it finally catches up to me
Like gravity it takes [...]

Thuper Thunday

Because of the new server room and the wiring that it involves, today we shutdown every server and switch because the power was going to be out for a number of hours. It was quite the experience to be in an old bank building basement in the oh so quiet dark!
Working on Sunday’s is very [...]

Solid B without cracking open a book.

With one of the classes I’m taking this year we have two quizzes a week, thus far I’ve not cracked the books open once and I’ve never gotten less than 80% on any of them. I’m not quite sure what to make of this. Either the course is so far easy, or I know more [...]

Network Mapping: Deuce

Today I realized that most of the addresses that had issues with incorrect locations of the network map may have been related to old and expired reverse DNS entries. Apparently part of our supernet DNS wasn’t being deleting old reverse lookup entries. Of all the misplaced network nodes, the entries seemed to all corresponded to [...]
