One Thing 2006 Last Day
We're tired, we're wasted, and we're still alive... Suwheet Thank you Jesus for strengthening us. Today is tear down day so between 12 and 4 AM tomorrow morning (which really is tonight) while you are all snuggled in your beds, say a prayer for us. This conference was silky smooth for the IT guys. Happy 2007 to everyone who reads this blog. May the Lord continue to bless you with His abounding Grace and Mercy.

IHOP IT Dept
I work with some awesome men of God who have it their life mission to do the will of the Father. This week we move from a half rack into a full rack at our colocation in downtown KC. Don't worry if you don't understand the terminology! Remember when Ethan Hunt dropped suspended in the high tech computer room in Mission Impossible? It's kinda like that but nothing like that.
But (you might be wondering) doesn't moving from a 1/2 rack to a full rack mean you have to shut main servers down? Doesn't that mean you have to turn off the database? The website? The payment server? The streaming server?
Yeah, you probably don't even remember the website being down do you? The IT Dept is committed to rocking and then rolling. Wham! Slam! We're in and then we're out. Thanks guys you ROCK! Javier, John, Jack. It's great to be working along side some great skills, talents, abilities, and tireless always at work guys like you. OK enough before you ask me for a tissue.
Peace Out Brathas! We did it again!

eBay eBay eBay
As many of you who read this blog know, and now for those that don't know, I buy and sell people's stuff on eBay. If you are interested in checking into what I do you can go here.
I will sell about anything for anybody and it's turned into a nice easy way for me to sow into people's finances and raise some financial support on the side. So if you have any stuff laying around that you want to liquidate send me an email and we'll get together to get your thing sold!

OW! That's gonna leave a mark
Did you buy a Nintendo Wii? If you did you need to check this out. Seems that the flimsy remote control strap is prone to snappage when you get down and dirty gaming. So if you got one, be careful or you just may give your TV, wall, or cat the brutal bash.

Ahhhhh! Puuuuuuuuuurfect!
Case in Point:
I am here in my house not wanting to even think about how cold it is outside. My wife in her art room doing her art. When all of sudden I hear HONK HONK outside and then my fone rings. It's my bud Jack in the earlier post: "Come outside dude, quick!" So I pile on 3 jackets and head out into -80 Billion degress, that's right negative 80 Billion degrees. I go over to his van and BOOM just like the bomb that he is, he hands me 2 piping, steaming hot cocoas complete with whipped cream. You are the BOMB Jack! Mia says Thanks too!
AHHHHHHHHHHHH!! Dee-Lish!

Man my boss is the BOMB
So my boss, and best friend actually, Jack Hill is a mega Little Boy and Fat Man all in one super atomic bomb! His tact, skills, and innate abilites are sharpened to precision. Wow, I pray that someday I could deliver like that.
It, it it was........ soap poisoning - Ralphie
Wow Jack, thanks for being my friend. You are the Bomb, in every respect. Peace Out. The Luce

Am I really that scary?
I send the link of my blog to my mom which she quickly goes to see like a nice supportive mother and she comes back to me with:
Take a guess
1) Your blog is lovely can you make me one like it?
2) WOW! You should be able to charge people to read your blog!
3) Is that really a picture of you? You look scary!!
If you guessed 1 and 2, then I applaud you at what you would THINK a mother would say. Well, when you're a Lion, you scare people!

Define Link
So I took a day off to relax from all this typing on this blog (the maintenance on it is CRAZY) and have plenty to talk about today: What is the definition of Link? Let me tell you what eBay says a Link is:
So there you have it! A link is a mechanism. It can be clickable or not? Where in the WWW did they get that? Clickable directly means LINK! So eBay took the initiative to shut down my current auctions because there was an unclickable link to www.auctionkc.org.
You never know when you are violating the rules without even knowing. So this post is to prepare you, to warn you, yea it may even help you one day. Do me a favor, let me know how YOU define Link. Thanks.
A link is any mechanism that takes a user to another Web site. Links can appear in the form of text, images, logos, or icons. They can be clickable or not.

On a serious note...
This is great, Apple claiming that their Macs are better than PC's. Yeah you can 'do' GarageBand' on a Mac, but c'mon people! Remember who has 99.999999% of the market share: Lemme give you a clue> It's not Apple. If you want a computer that functions in the real world, send me an email, I'll get you a great hookup with a Schweet Dell. In the meantime, check out the funny new Mac ads.

The Luce
I am a missionary on staff with The International House of Prayer (IHOP) in Kansas City. I serve with the Information Technology Department (IT) and have been there 3 years. Wow how fast 3 years goes by.
Life at IHOP is a mix between riding a roller coaster, swimming in a blender, and flying in a hurricane. All at the same time, backwards, on your knees, in the snow.
I love it there and doubt that there is any place to compare it to in the whole world. But, being that I haven't been to the entire world, then I leave that an open challenge of mine: To find a place like IHOP on earth. Not gonna happen, not a chance, not ever, ever.
You can check out IHOP for yourself. Tell me what you think, what you like, what you dislike. Be prepared, though, the Lord may intervene in your life.... again!
