This is what I am going to say at my grandfather’s funeral today. I just felt like posting it for anyone to read. A funeral should be a celebration of someone’s life, not a mourning of our own loss.
My grandfather, was from my earliest recollection, a handy man. Always with tools [...]
My oh my. Work is taking a lot of my time…. so I haven’t been online much at all. I will try to keep this updated at least twice a week though, we shall see how well I do.
A funeral to attend today…. so I take the day off of work. Let me sleep in [...]

Time flies when you’re having fun, or at least at a new job. Starting Monday, it looks like I’ll be working from 7 am to 4:30 to 5:30. Ah, the salaried lifestyle, have to do all that good work. This stems from the fact we are running two shifts. Got to [...]
Ang Lee’s The Hulk. Minor spoilers, be warned.
I liked it. Quite a bit. A good change of pace from other comic movies. I don’t know if it hits the Shakespearian or Greek Tragedy level that we could hope for in it, but the movie held up very well.

I liked the fact that The Hulk had [...]
Well, my first two days are going well. Very well, but I need to be a bit more aggressive in my questioning and learning of various activities. But I’ll fit in well I think.
The drive isn’t as bad as I thought it’d be, about 50 miles each way, but I hold about 65 mph going [...]
Well, it’s down to the wire. Graduation Day. YeeHaaw. Nervous? No. Apprehensive? No. So what am I today? Just tired, waiting to get it over with.
I’m all moved out of Cedritos, my dorm for 3 years. Great building, right across the street from all my engineering classes. Lots of people I’ve known from there….. Most [...]
Well, that’s it. My life in the dorms of Cal Poly is over. Just took my last final, and I check out tomorrow.
Before I do, one crazy young freshman wants to pull a prank on me. Everyone has told her not to, but she is insistent in attempting it seems. Though she seems to rely [...]

I’ve had a few things going on lately. Only one final to take next week, and one presentation/demonstration. Passed out of my other two finals to take. So I shall soon be among the graduated, and then the working. I’m looking for apartments now, I’m thinking in the Corona area. It’s [...]
I have a Mark Twain paper due tomorrow. Taking a “Connecticut Yankee in King Author’s Court” and relating it to what we consider normal, traditional politics. Relating Twain’s off beat characterization and description to the politics of his time, and then again to ours is a bit tough. Why? Cause I read the book awhile [...]
I decided to take the job at the Carpenter Company. Good pay, very reasonable hours and flexibility for that one class I have left to take this fall. If nothing else, it will be an interesting experience.
Now I just need to find housing. I’m looking at the Corona area, even though it’s more expensive than [...]
