Taco Bell

I love it...
straight up, Taco Bell is where its at. I've always been pretty much a traditionalist when it comes to my menu selections, opting for just 6-9 crunchy tacos but recently since the start of this summer because I have been working right near a Taco Bell, I branched out and started getting the steak quesadilla. Definitely a solid addition to my fare. Well tonight I branched out even further and tried a baja steak chalupa. Results: meh. But the real moral of the story is that I drank the huge Baja Blast Mountain Dew and now I can't fall asleep. Oh well, ya know what they say
...open late, always great, at the bell

disconect

Barely have had internet lately, and when I have its been super firewalled up. Led me to try and do OpenVPN, pretty sweet stuff, real powerful, with the plan being to vpn to the home and then use that tunneled connection. So far has been quite the roundabout adventure. The thing was that I tried to setup the server real quick (15 minutes) before rushing out the door on my latest trip. I pretty much just followed the How-To on the OpenVPN site, worked out great. It was all good and setup when I left, but of course when I went to connect, of course it didn't work. So i spent two days thinking the firewall was the issue. Turned out that the computer had been turned off (sweet, thanks bro). Once we got the computer turned on it connected up real nice, but I hadn't configured the server to do connection redirection so all my traffic wasn't begin routed over the vpn connection. Then in attempting to explain the 2 line changes that needed to be made in the server config file, my wonderful brother again completely botched it up and I just gave up. So basically need to get some remote access to this home box (ssh/TightVNC), and also now I don't think I even need a whole vpn connection, perhaps just some ssh tunnel and proxy action. Should have solid internet access in a two weeks, and I'll get the whole story down so until then...

Hello World

#include stdio.h

main()
{
printf("Hello World");
}

or perhaps

class HelloWorld
{
public static void main(String[] args)
{
System.out.println("Hello World");
}
}

or maybe even


with Ada.Text_IO;
use Ada.Text_IO;

procedure HelloWorld is
begin
put_line("Hello World");
end HelloWorld;


... thus it begins
