Do The Right Thing!

Recently it has come to my attention that the US Government is trying to pass a censorship bill for the Internet. Not only will this allow for the Government to remove things due to copyright, but give you 5 years in jail because of it. And this bill will also allow companies to SUE the offending people, for posting something as little as, a kid singing a song they heard on the radio. What they will do is also make the internet less stable, and less secure. So do the right thing contact your Congressman/woman.

This bill could directly effect the first amendment of the Bill of Rights, I think. I am of course speaking of, the Freedom of Speech.

Time disappears quickly it seems...

Life catches me busy again, and again, and again. This isn't much of a surprise though, is it? Between work, and going back to school, and my personal life, do you really think I have much real free time? Nope.

Still on my job of driving, its been good, I heard something from a person the other day that just rang so true to me. The people can sometimes make or break a job, and for me it makes the job, it can be plenty of fun for me. But now I am going back to school now, for Computer Information Systems I figured since I'm on a computer 9/10ths of the day (minus when I'm working, naturally), that I should probably go into the computer field. Of course I had to take a math class, I figured take it first, and get it out of the way, most of what has been taught, has clicked for me, somethings I have had to ask for help from my math major sister for. I also took an Intro to Info tech class, more so to catch me up to all Office 2010, not that I haven't learned other things.

Of course this lack of free time, means I haven't really touched my models much. Last I did I was touching up my Omni's rear end. so now it has a window gasket around the rear glass, which makes it seem a little better. I did some other little tweaks, that just help it that little bit more as well.

Even my PT recieved some work in this busy time, somehow. Helps that my dad did buy a 00 Mustang not too long, with 22k miles on the clock, not bad. But that meant there was a spare car around. My PT got new sway bar bushings, new sway bar end links, and new lower control arm bushings as well. Now as it gets colder I'm noticing a slight buzz from around the passenger's front door. and the p/s is back to its usual random whining. She's only 10 years old, and 108k miles. But alas I have been busy enough that its now November, and I have yet to put the winter wheels on (I'm hoping i can do that later today, errr night).

Now a small rant, slow people, they are everywhere, but they are most annoying when they sit in the middle lane, not going the speed limit, and yet there's a slow person in the right lane as well, that is going about the same speed. Its really annoying when they are in the left lane doing this, now I'm going to clarify my definition of a slow person, one who is going under the posted speed limit on a nice day, on a terrible day out I can understand. (Like I can remember a day driving a Fiesta, we couldn't go the speed limit because of the weather, and later had to ford the lakes of Southfield, due to all the rain fall.

Its the whole Blogosphere!

After a rather long Hiatus, I'm posting again, planning on ranting? nope, going to say something about 3d modeling? possibly. going to talk about something wildly off topic? most likely. going to keep on asking pointless questions in my own blog? does appear that way, doesn't it.

Anywho... Life has caught me being busy again, working, helping work on my sisters house, trying a new job to find out, its not even you, despite going to school for 13 months for that, and now looking into going back to school for something better, and my parents are pushing me to start this fall when I'm not sure exactly what I want, just something in computers I feel like would be better for me.

Of course I am back to my job of driving, and its been fun, I guess sometimes you don't realize what fun it is, until you take it away for a bit. Just thought i would say something quick, was stopped at a rest area for a, admittedly longer break, as we didn't want to get back early. but we had stopped at a rest area, were standing around talking, car goes by and goes all the way to the end then takes the parking spot, no one gets out, can't really see anyone in the car, and a little while later, they take off... going in the opposite direction, then not long after they go back again, going the right way lol. Nothing is funnier then watching someone go down the wrong way, to me at least.

3d models? yep there's those as well, been working a bit on the Iota-R for a new concept car competition. and to those waiting for this car, well, its a surprise. Omni and Mini? the Omni I've been on and off kind of working on every so often, the Mini, yeah nothing yet, because its the interior I really need to do, and well I haven't done it yet lol.

Also found an old chrysler radio (like out of the late 80s earlies 90s). the exact model you'd find in an Omni even (though I have a sneaking suspicion this one came out of an 86 Ram Van). Anyways, wired up some power for it, and it appears to be working, all lights on the radio appear to work, and the brief time I had enough charge in the battery to goto the radio I could see it could goto stations but some of the buttons you had to press pretty hard, or I think 1 or 2 of them just didn't work. But the clock itself, works perfectly. Now i just need to find a way to power it from the outlet. I tried the battery charger from the batteries I was using but it wasn't quite powerful enough for the radio to go on, got a power source from a slot car track, going to eventually see if thats enough power for it.

Anyways post again soon, hopefully...
