Random Thoughts Volume VII

April 2, 2005

Here I sit, listening to XM Radio. Online! They jacked up the monthly rate but threw in the online bit. Not a bad trade off if you ask me. It’s not Mango Radio or anything but it’s pretty cool.

We started to set up SUS Server at work yesterday. And I am more or less in charge of this venture because I have actually set it up before. It did not go too smoothly. When we went to launch the admin tool, which is web based, we get a 401 you don’t have permission to display this page error. Fun. It seems like I screwed up the setup of IIS 6, but I haven’t figured out where I went wrong — Yet.

Baseball is about to start. And I am excited. This is the only time of year to be excited if you are an Orioles fan. By June, all the excitement will be out of it. Daylight Savings Time is set to begin. All of this points to spring. And spring means … backpacking of course. I need to plan a trip soon.

I’m still mulling over the Dish Network thing. I hadn’t done before because the HD equipment was too expensive, but now they are giving the base HD receiver for free. It might just be time.

It’s another rainy weekend, so I will probably post again soon.
