| 17:15.31 | prpplague | T0mW: hmm, that'd be a step up for you |
| 17:15.59 | T0mW | prpplague: yeah, too many hours on this this week. Time to do something else for a while. |
| 17:16.10 | prpplague | T0mW: download pr0n? |

| 17:18.18 | prpplague | T0mW: you make any progress on the apex cfi code? |
| 17:18.37 | prpplague | T0mW: sorry if i sounded grump the other night, i've had the worst migrain for almost 3 days |
| 17:19.13 | T0mW | prpplague: naw, yesterday I took most of the day off: mowed the lawn, watched TV. |
| 17:19.39 | T0mW | prpplague: time to put this board into the back of my mind and let it run as a background process for a while. heh |
| 17:20.32 | T0mW | prpplague: I have been fortunate not to suffer from that. My friend, Patty, suffers from them ever since she was rear-ended in an auto accident. |
| 17:21.27 | T0mW | prpplague: I have a stack of mail I have yet to open. This is what collected during the past week of working on that board. |
| 17:21.47 | T0mW | prpplague: anyway |
| 17:21.47 | prpplague | hehe |
| 17:21.52 | prpplague | T0mW: no |
| 17:21.54 | prpplague | T0mW: problem |
| 17:21.59 | T0mW | prpplague: why would the army want you back again? |
| 17:21.59 | prpplague | T0mW: i do the same thing |
| 17:22.25 | prpplague | T0mW: hehe, they are running short of recruits |
| 17:22.37 | jbevren | prpplague: trying to draft you? :) |
| 17:22.58 | T0mW | prpplague: you got some kind of a skill they need, like lobbing 100lb shells 15miles and dropping them withing 20 feet of the target? |
| 17:23.02 | prpplague | jbevren: once you've served they can call you back for up to 8 years after your last activity |
| 17:23.24 | prpplague | T0mW: communications |
| 17:23.59 | prpplague | jbevren: i'm still listed in the IRR |
| 17:23.59 | T0mW | prpplague: that is a hot item for them right now. ever since they started out with j-stars ssytem. |
| 17:24.24 | prpplague | T0mW: yea, i'm still old school singars, but none the less |
| 17:24.35 | T0mW | prpplague: heh, if they find out you are into opensource, you'd better think "green". |
| 17:24.43 | prpplague | T0mW: my main training was being able to take enemy radios and get info from them |
| 17:24.52 | prpplague | T0mW: ? |
| 17:25.19 | T0mW | prpplague: they are doing a lot of battlefield 'just in time', heh, programming now. |

| 17:26.46 | prpplague | T0mW: you can still join the army up till 42 |
| 17:27.44 | prpplague | T0mW: i was all cleared to go to OCS and backed out at the last minute |
| 17:27.45 | T0mW | prpplague: they would really want to need what that 42 year old knows. |
| 17:28.07 | T0mW | prpplague: how much time did you have in? |
| 17:28.25 | prpplague | T0mW: just 2 years when i was ok'd for OCS |
| 17:28.36 | T0mW | prpplague: total |
| 17:28.51 | prpplague | T0mW: oh, 4 years regular army, and 4 year nation guard |
| 17:29.00 | T0mW | nod |
| 17:29.37 | prpplague | T0mW: funny thing, i still have dreams about being back in the military |
| 17:29.58 | T0mW | prpplague: my brother was in the navy for 4.5years, he was stationed on the New Jersey as a gunner: 16inch gun. |
| 17:30.10 | prpplague | T0mW: its not always the army, and i always am getting in trouble in the dream because i'm missing some part of my uniform |
| 17:30.28 | T0mW | prpplague: I got to sail on her from Perl Harbor to Los Angeles |
| 17:30.42 | T0mW | prpplague: heh, your pants? |
| 17:30.43 | prpplague | cool |
| 17:31.04 | T0mW | prpplague: or, your flak-jacket? |
| 17:31.14 | prpplague | T0mW: naw, more like patches, or my hat, or boots not tied properly |
| 17:31.18 | prpplague | T0mW: that kind of stuff |
| 17:31.42 | prpplague | T0mW: i.e. stuff you'd forget after being away from it for awhile |
| 17:32.01 | T0mW | prpplague: it was cool, I slept in a rack of the forward gun berthing, they fired off all the weapons except the tomahawk missles for us. |
| 17:32.12 | prpplague | T0mW: how did you manage that? |
| 17:32.57 | T0mW | prpplague: public relations cruises the navy had in the late 80's, they called them Tiger Cruise for the male members of the families of the crew. |
| 17:33.08 | prpplague | ahh interesting |
| 17:33.24 | prpplague | T0mW: i haven't told donna or my boss yet |
| 17:33.33 | T0mW | prpplague: ohohoo |
| 17:33.44 | prpplague | T0mW: not gonna say anything for now |
| 17:34.03 | prpplague | no sense in getting them worked up over it |
| 17:34.16 | T0mW | prpplague: I just going to suggest that, experience tells me that you don't give the woman ammo for worry needlessly. |
| 17:34.31 | prpplague | T0mW: hehe yea |
| 17:35.20 | T0mW | prpplague: heh, your job, should you accept it Mr Phelps, is to reinforce the world view that the woman you are with has. |
| 17:36.07 | prpplague | hehe |
| 17:36.14 | T0mW | prpplague: um |
| 17:37.44 | T0mW | prpplague: I knew a guy, older man, who got called back into the kuwaiit thing. He was an electronics disinformation / intellegence guy for the air force. As he puts it, his job was to make it look like the force was somewhere else and collect data on the enemy |
| 17:38.17 | prpplague | yea heard about such things |
| 17:39.06 | T0mW | I also know a Navy Seal, gynecologist in real life, who got called into that thing. |
| 17:39.36 | T0mW | prpplague: so, I guess it is possible. |
| 17:42.00 | T0mW | prpplague: I did look around at other s3c24x0 systems offerings. And, I have concluded that this is probably the nicest of them: smallest anyway . |
| 17:46.07 | prpplague | yep |
| 17:46.38 | prpplague | ?? |
| 17:46.50 | prpplague | what rumor? |
| 17:47.55 | T0mW | http://www.baselinemag.com/article2/0%2C1540%2C2007404%2C00.asp |
| 17:50.57 | prpplague | hmmmm |
| 17:54.53 | T0mW | I'm not sure how that would work out. IIRC, both IBM & InTel had made private investment into Red Hat before there was a public offering. |
| 18:20.47 | prpplague | holy cow - http://www.overstock.com/cgi-bin/d2.cgi?PAGE=PROFRAME&PROD_ID=2039880 |
| 18:21.27 | jbevren | we need a tinyurl bot :) |
| 18:21.44 | jbevren | You Save:$273.95 (91%) |
| 18:21.44 | jbevren | lol |
| 18:21.49 | jbevren | apparently they cant give them away |
| 18:22.20 | jbevren | heh |
| 18:22.23 | jbevren | they rejected my brother due to his migrains(sp?) |
| 18:22.26 | jbevren | then they started trying to recruit him again |
| 18:22.29 | sorphin | heh |
| 18:22.33 | jbevren | my dad ended up threatening a harassment lawsuit |
| 18:22.40 | jbevren | cause my brother really wanted to go :) |
| 18:22.43 | sorphin | a juicebox eh? i'd maybe take a juicebox if someone PAID me $25.. lol |
| 18:38.26 | prpplague | sorphin: thats ok, you're welcome for my voluntary service |
| 18:38.26 | jbevren | prpplague: my luck, I'd get four 2M boxes |
| 18:38.27 | sorphin | prpplague: no thanks |
| 18:38.27 | jbevren | prpplague: I respect the people over there in iraq |
| 18:38.35 | jbevren | but that doesnt mean I believe they belong there |
| 18:38.45 | sorphin | jbevren: exactly |
| 18:38.49 | prpplague | sorphin: are you serious? |
| 18:39.00 | sorphin | prpplague: about which? |
| 18:39.12 | sorphin | too many convos going at once here |
| 18:39.12 | sorphin | juiceboxes in the army |
| 18:39.41 | prpplague | sorphin: "<sorphin> prpplague: no thanks" |
| 18:39.52 | sorphin | right, which do you think i was saying no thanks to then? I was saying it to your voluntary military service |
| 18:39.59 | prpplague | to which i responded "are you serious?" |
| 18:40.06 | sorphin | yeah, i'm serious |
| 18:40.17 | sorphin | and will not |
| 18:40.42 | prpplague | sorphin: so you don't believe that people who do server at playing a vital role in protecting the united states? |
| 18:40.46 | jbevren | prpplague: (with all respect) if theyre fighting a valid war, yes. |
| 18:40.50 | jbevren | if not (iraq), no. |
| 18:40.50 | sorphin | prpplague: no, what i'm saying is i don't have any desire to be a part of that |
| 18:40.50 | sorphin | prpplague: get us a GOOD president, cabinet, etc, etc, and stop stomping all over the bill of rights and the constitution, and our rights in general, then maybe i'd *consider* it |
| 18:40.51 | sorphin | but as the country stands right now, hell no |
| 18:40.51 | sorphin | you say something they don't like, you're automatically a terrorist |
| 18:40.54 | prpplague | sorphin: thats just my point, you don't think that people who server in the military deserve a thanks? |
| 18:41.02 | sorphin | prpplague: excuse me, a good friend is in the airforce, and has been for a few years |
| 18:41.09 | prpplague | sorphin: so why respond to me that way? |
| 18:41.21 | sorphin | i responded to your saying i could do your service FOR you |
| 18:41.23 | sorphin | nothing more |
| 18:41.54 | prpplague | sorphin: oh, sorry mis understanding then, what i meant is, i volunteered, and those who don't want to, should be thankful that we do |
| 18:42.01 | prpplague | sorphin: poor choice of words |
| 18:42.05 | sorphin | ah |
| 18:42.08 | sorphin | gotcha |
| 18:42.21 | sorphin | prpplague: well, i agree w/ jbevren, if it's for a valid reason that we're fighting |
| 18:42.24 | sorphin | iraq |
| 18:42.27 | sorphin | is not a valid reason |
| 18:58.36 | sorphin | but this isn't a political channel, so.. |
| 18:58.45 | prpplague | sorphin: well, i do believe it doesn't matter, it the fact that a person has made a concience decision to place their lives in harms way for their country |
| 18:58.52 | prpplague | sorphin: agreed |
| 18:59.12 | sorphin | prpplague: Would you fight for your ARM? hehe |
| 18:59.32 | prpplague | sorphin: hehe, yea |
| 18:59.35 | sorphin | your right to bear ARMs |
| 18:59.43 | sorphin | hehe |
| 18:59.47 | prpplague | sorphin: i fight for OSS |
| 18:59.47 | sorphin | prpplague: guy here had a thing he found somewhere |
| 19:00.22 | sorphin | "The Right to Bear Arms" and it had a picture of a guy with a bear's arms |
| 19:00.38 | prpplague | ha cute |
| 19:01.02 | sorphin | yeah |
| 19:01.02 | prpplague | sorphin: i'm just surprised at how divide the US is these days |
| 19:01.07 | prpplague | divided |
| 19:01.32 | sorphin | there's the brainwashed, and the unbrainwashed |
| 19:01.41 | sorphin | the latter gets called 'conspiracy theorists' :P |
| 19:01.55 | sorphin | the former |
| 19:01.58 | sorphin | believes everythign their told |
| 19:02.01 | sorphin | without question |
| 19:02.06 | sorphin | aka |
| 19:02.09 | sorphin | lemmings |
| 19:02.31 | prpplague | yea like i said, i'm surprised at how divided everything these days |
| 19:02.31 | prpplague | and it seems the rift is getting bigger |
| 19:02.40 | prpplague | i was raised to believe that the united states was a very unified place and that even though there were lots of difference cultures and beliefs, that the vast majority clung to US unity |
| 19:02.59 | prpplague | actually it reminds me of the stuff portrayed on that HBO series ROME |
| 19:17.49 | jbevren | A month after Paris Hilton says she will abstain from sex for a year, this headline comes out: "Percentage of people with herpes drops." Coincidence? |
| 19:17.50 | prpplague | hehe |
| 19:39.52 | prpplague | ho ho hum |
| 19:40.05 | prpplague | wonder where cosmic is today |
| 19:40.32 | prpplague | jbevren: done any more pixter dev? i've been totally swampped at work |
| 19:40.53 | jbevren | prpplague: I've been too burned/tired to work with things heh |
| 19:40.56 | jbevren | not to mention my shop isnt airconditioned |
| 19:40.56 | prpplague | jbevren: same here |
| 19:41.06 | jbevren | I'll probably spend more time there when it gets cool in the evenings |
| 19:41.19 | jbevren | this week I have to write a new module for our D&D campaign |
| 19:41.35 | jbevren | the campaign's at a pivot heh |
| 19:41.41 | prpplague | hehe |
| 19:41.52 | jbevren | and this seession (or next), objects will start hitting fans |
| 19:42.00 | prpplague | jbevren: hehe |
| 19:42.03 | prpplague | jbevren: i got a ton of doc work i need to be doing |
| 19:42.18 | jbevren | if you can imagine becoming the target of the worlds largest non-national power group |
| 19:42.19 | jbevren | <PROTECTED> |
| 19:42.23 | jbevren | they done did it |
| 19:42.29 | prpplague | jbevren: nothing very challenging, just stuff thats got to get done :( |
| 19:42.45 | jbevren | nod |
| 19:43.22 | prpplague | jbevren: really disappointed i can't be at the office to help with the first shipment |
| 19:43.25 | prpplague | jbevren: our first production run is completely sold out |
| 19:43.30 | jbevren | nod |
| 19:43.33 | jbevren | Ive heard :) |
| 19:43.41 | prpplague | jbevren: although the aml folks didn't get much attention at linux world |

| 19:58.52 | jbevren | hrm |
| 19:58.52 | jbevren | hehe |
| 19:59.47 | prpplague | jbevren: yea thats easy to do |
| 20:01.29 | jbevren | I didnt know you could hook two sdsl modems direct to each other |
| 20:02.29 | chouimat | woohoooo!!!!! |
| 21:08.56 | prpplague | jbevren: yep |
| 21:09.32 | jbevren | prpplague: Interesting |
| 21:09.37 | prpplague | jbevren: when i worked for abcsinc, we used to do that as a retro fit of old digital modem connections |
| 21:10.05 | prpplague | jbevren: basically just clean wire connections between buildings and such |
| 21:10.36 | prpplague | jbevren: alot of companies might have the warehouse on one side of the road, and their offices on another |
| 21:11.00 | prpplague | jbevren: they'd have a shared phone system pbx, so we'd just grab a pair and throw on dsl boxes |
| 21:11.10 | prpplague | jbevren: instant tcp/ip |
| 21:11.22 | jbevren | nod |
| 21:11.28 | T0mW | prpplague: did you ever bring that littlechips board to the shop? |
| 21:11.42 | prpplague | hell no, my migrain has had me in a fog |
| 21:11.43 | jbevren | heh |
| 21:11.43 | jbevren | I get fogs without migrains :( |
| 21:27.53 | T0mW | prpplague: when you get a change, bring it in, I would like you to load my binaries into it, just to verify what I am seeing, that should verify the hardware is ok if you get the same results. |
| 21:27.53 | prpplague | jbevren: those are called farts |
| 21:27.54 | prpplague | T0mW: i'll can load it up at home this evening |
| 21:27.54 | T0mW | brain-farts? I get them all the time now that I'm older |
| 21:27.54 | jbevren | prpplague: heh |
| 21:28.29 | T0mW | prpplague: what's the 1st? payday? |
| 21:28.55 | prpplague | T0mW: suppose to go to the consulate and get donna's passport stamped |
| 21:29.12 | jbevren | prpplague: approved? |
| 21:29.26 | prpplague | jbevren: supposedly the paperwork is on its way from the states |
| 21:29.29 | prpplague | jbevren: scheduled to go in on the 1st |
| 21:29.41 | jbevren | cool beans |
| 21:29.49 | prpplague | yea |
| 21:30.13 | prpplague | jbevren: now i have to start planning on a move back |
| 21:30.33 | prpplague | jbevren: stress stress stress for like 3 or 4 months |
| 21:31.02 | jbevren | and the moment you get back, you get to go right back abroad |
| 21:31.19 | prpplague | jbevren: hehe |
| 21:31.36 | prpplague | jbevren: i doubt it, they generally get people who have been out of service for shorter periods of time |
| 21:52.39 | prpplague | jbevren: i only have about 8 months till my commitement time expires |
