Orca MSI Editor

I had to use a program that Microsoft puts out for free today. It is called orca and it can be used to edit MSIs at the database level. It is a good tool, but to get it you have to download like 300 megs of junk from MS. It seemed pretty dumb, so I am posting here so that I don’t have to do that anymore.

Brent’s Arcade

I wrote a little bit ago about the arcade machine that I was working on. It is pretty much done now. I need to clean the front of it a little and maybe paint a couple spots, but it is functional and fun. I thought I would show a couple pictures. Check them out after the more…

Found this while I was out surfing around this weekend. You may not care much about Joy Behar, but she does have some interesting thoughts in this interview.

Finally

I wondered how long it would take republican voters to finally get tired of the asshats in office. I opened my favorite sites today and it looks like it was a good day in that area among my friends.

Caution Maxx’s langauge can get rough.
Open Letter
Old Glory

It is nice to know that at least my friends aren’t blind to the wasteful practices of these corporate pigs in office. I don’t know if more of America is starting to see that they are manipulated in Election Years or not. I hope so. We as a people need more people writing stuff like that this. More people that feel they are republicans, but also feel that these “republicans” in office aren’t.

A two party political system sucks (IMO), but it is what we have, so we need to see people from both sides work to make sure that the people in office at least reflect the things that they say their party is supposed to. Both parties seem to have gotten away from that in the last few years and they need to see some fallout from that.

I really wish there were more third parties out there to run so that people would feel they were a valid party and vote some of them into office. I think anything that would shock these greedy greedy money grubbers in office into thinking they might lose their jobs if they don’t try a little harder to do what we want would be a great thing.

Resurrected archives

I pulled a dump of the old forums off of maxx’s server and dumped it into a database on one of my servers at work. I spent a little time pulling some of the posts out of it and putting them into this method of blogging. Unfortunately, there was really no way to pull the comments too, so on most of the ones that actually had comments I have just posted a link at the top to the old thread.

Just one example of where people’s tithes go



and no this is not one bad person making a bad name for all the other good faith healers. This is what it is all about.

Also if you have the time you might want to help pray for lower gas prices. Too bad they drove 110 miles to perform the prayer. Wasting gas to waste time praying for lower gas prices. Wouldn’t this time be better used praying for people missing limbs and hoping god will restore them?

The Digital Lifestyle

It seems lately that I haven’t been doing a whole lot with the computers that I have at home. Lamar and I were talking about this some and I realized, that unlike when I was in college or right after, that I didn’t really have a lot of projects running that I could be thinking about.

We Made it!!

Ah 06/06/2006 came and went. No end of the world or anything. I hope they get all the crazy people back on the TV today and ask them how they could have been so wrong about everything they were talking about.

In other news reports are that the new Omen movie sucks rocks. Maybe it is some kinds of sign of the end of good movie entertainment.
