Fix for Skype

For all those running the Skype 2.0 Beta on Ubuntu Gutsy. Seems that having Nessus installed will screw up your Qt libraries: 505 cd /opt/nessus/lib/ 506 sudo mv libQtCore.so.4 libQtCore.so.old 507 sudo mv libQtGui.so.4 libQtGui.so.old 508 sudo mv libQtXml.so.4 libQtXml.so.old

Hey Ya

I am not one for rap usually, but this rendition rocks my socks. Turns the pop-rap into this dramatic song about life :)

Brrrr

I ran this morning in 20 degree weather…with snow! It was pretty chilly and I am hoping when I awake in the morning the run will be much more enjoyable.

Moment in Time

Sometimes when we leave a place we know it isn’t forever. Yet you still look around with deep breath and soak it in. What is “it” that we need to soak?I had that feeling today as I boarded in Tucson. I knew that I might be back but this time would be the last of this era. This was the last of a time in my life, a period of great testing. I felt this one other time in Shreveport so I know it well. The same yearn for one last look. One last breath. One last freeze frame of all the people in the room. Some people mistake this feeling by assosciating it with a place. They misunderstand that the place is little more than a collection of people and emotions. The scenery is picture worthy, but it is the person looking at it with you that will cement your love of it. There are many more places for me to go. I look forward to bottling that moment up and placing it on my shelf of life. Take that last deep breath and seal it tightly for this is all you will have of this moment, this place, this time.
