Me and my Internet


Husband, Dad, Navy Officer, Coder, and Tinkerer. I have many interests and am always looking to learn something new. This site is a launching point to the many areas of the Internet that represent me.


  1. They’re coming to take me away… I’m a computer killer…

    If only I had an Ultra X3 / 1000-Watt / ATX / SATA-Ready / PCI-E Ready / Energy Efficient / ULT40064 Modular Power Supply… this just would not be an issue… First off, I’m pretty sure I fried my desktop. I had the box in the perfect sized location between my desk, wall, and TV… unfortunately I don’t think I was giving it adequate ventilation, and so one night, it quit. It wasn’t the first...

  2. I can solve the border control issue

    I have a solution to our Mexico-United States border control issue. President Bush has seemingly made our southern border control his number one priority lately. After congress denied his immigration reform bill the first time, our President showed signs of frustration and continued on proclaiming that the bill isn’t perfect, but it is better than the status quo. I agree… sometimes change is needed… however, I think our government doesn’t look at bills like this... [read more]


  3. Christmas is around the corner…

    On my way to work this morning, the radio reminded me that today is the halfway mark to Christmas… only six months to go! Every year it seems as though stores jump the gun on special shopping periods. You can take any holiday for example. Easter, Valentines Day, Christmas, Fourth of July… every holiday’s shopping period always seems to start earlier and earlier every year. Now that Christmas is only six months away, how long...

  4. Just another day of commuting

    Have you ever needed to replace something that was broken… but you kept putting it off, until you really needed it… but then it is just too late? Let’s take windshield wipers for example… So I was driving to work this morning in a fairly hefty thunderstorm. We haven’t had a good rain here in weeks, so it was actually quite strange driving about, avoiding the standing water… cause Cincinnati just loves to hide potholes... [read more]


  5. UTube and YouTube - so close but yet so different

    I heard about the troubles with UTube a few years back, but hadn’t heard anything surface since… until now. UTube.com is the website for Universal Tube, a tube and pipe manufacturing company found in Toledo, of northern Ohio. Back in 1996 Universal Tube opened its website http://www.utube.com to the public in hopes of driving buyers through an easy online purchase process. It was a success! About 75% of their current business now goes through their... [read more]


  6. Flight bag… FOUND

    So a maintenance guy at Lunken found my bag out in the parking lot and brought it inside :-) hooray! here’s to hoping for him that some high maintenance woman does want a maintenance man… [read more]


  7. Flight Lesson 14

    I went up solo today. Flew about 25 miles southeast to Meldahl Lock and Dam, did some maneuvers and toyed around for a little bit. I did one practice stall, but the stall horn wasn’t working. So when I started falling out of the sky I corrected fine and decided to head back for a few touch and go’s. It was quite bouncy up there today. On the way home I think I left my... [read more]


  8. Post Retraction

    I retract the previous post… a few minutes ago… I started delving into the masses of changes that would be necessary for this procedure, and I decided… eh, its fine the way it is. I think I’m going to be giving the home page a face lift, but for now I think I will keep as it was. Thanks, Jason [read more]


  9. We’re on the move….

    Hello Loyal Readers… We are soon to be on the move! I have decided that my homepage, which was located at http://www.blarged.com really stunk… or at least I wanted my blog to have a domain of its own… so we’re soon to be on the move. I had already made all the updates and then thought… well what about you folks that use readers instead of visiting the site, you won’t know to update your... [read more]


  10. Classic Kids TV

    Think back to the movies and/or TV shows you watched when you were a kid; they were kind of strange weren’t they…. One of my all-time favorite movies while growing up was Sesame Street Presents: Follow that Bird. Coming to us from the great year of 1985, Follow that Bird was labeled as “It’s Big Adventure! It’s Big Laughs! It’s Big Bird on the Big Screen!” I tell you, I loved this movie. Sitting here... [read more]
