He seems to be a wise man... And I agree with him. During my time in the "Red Cross"... you know the medics... I learned about that.
I still help these guys out whenever I can. Mostly on big events... standing in the sun... being there just in case something happens...
damn... I'm being nostalgic again.

Always good to have someone there in case something happens.

That's very cool!


Today, I found Randall Munroe's (xkcd) epic picture-series entitled "Time".
It was an entry in his comic, (http://xkcd.com/1190/) a single image that changed every hour. (It has now ended so it's showing the end frame.)
All in all, it's a nice, interesting story with a great attention to detail. Beware though, it's pretty damn long.

I remember when that came out. I came in somewhere in the middle. I'm glad there's a scrolling version.

Today I got to write some VBA and Python scripts for work.

Today at my internship we changed from svn to git for version control and I am completely lost...why do I have to add something that's already under version control and then commit and then push? so confused...
But today my headphone amp arrived! I'm in love with my headphones all over again :D

Time was awesome! Discovered it some time ago and watched it till it ended. Shame it ended though, it was an exciting story.

There are neither beginnings nor endings to the turning of the Forums of ASDF. But it was a beginning.

I don't have a lot of experience with version control...

Today my baby had a checkup at the doctor's office. She's doing really well. She's able to follow people with her eyes, and apparently it's a couple of weeks earlier than normal. :)

Sorry for the double post, but today the wireless adaptor for my Raspberry Pi came, so I thought I'd hop on the forums to post on my tiny computer. :)
