6 months later...

Well, it finally happened. 6 months of looking and I finally landed a job. I am the new project engineer at Caprock Manufacturing in Lubbock, TX. I can't even tell you how excited I am to NOT be unemployed anymore. More details to follow.

Maxwell Smart would be SOOO jealous...

OK, I'm not quite sure how the tech would work for this, but the idea is VERY intriguing. Imagine. Total auditory privacy. For those of you who know much about the physics of sound, it's a very interesting puzzle to make this work to say the least. The snippet can be found on slashdot, here.

Hardcore Geek-age

OK, for those of you that know me, I'm a geek. I like computers, games, books, movies, and most other things that are done quietly and solo. I like technology in most of it's forms. I am also a guy. I like it when things blow up. I like action. One of my favorite shows is Mythbusters on the Discovery Channel. Those guys get paid to...play. How awesome would it be to be them?

Aparently there is a new show that is going to be starting on May 11. It's called Weaponizers. The premise is turning cars and such into radio controlled insturnments of gleeful distruction. Check out Hack-a-day and BotJunkie for more information.

Cars to blow things and each other up....Cooooooooooool ;)

I am SUCH a geek....
