Luke says Moo!

“True freedom, the freedom that liberates, is grounded in truth
and ordered to truth and, therefore, to virtue. A free person
is enslaved neither to the sheer will of another nor to his own
appetites and passions. A free person lives uprightly, fulfilling
his obligations to family, community, nation and God. By contrast,

Well, I got my first mass spamming today. Every single post had a comment by the same bot putting in stuff about gambling online. Very, very annoying.
I hope the mother of the person that wrote that code finds out about it, and then beats them.
Anyway, I had a wonderful experience using MT-Blacklist which [...]

Ok, ECE 300 (Signals and Systems) test #2 is over. I think I did a decent job. I’m thinking about a 70% is where I’m going to end up. That’d be really nice.
Oh, yesterday was the Internship/Co-op Fair here at Rose. I actually think I sounded intelligent to a couple [...]

I just thought I’d drop in and say that Dilbert is great.
And that Tapestry is uber sweet. It’s a “series of RSS feeds for online comics.” I love it as it allows me to get several of my favorite comics without ever having to leave the comfort of my RSS browser.

Mom just called to let me know that a friend of mine’s father passed away this weekend. It wasn’t exactly a surprise as he’s been sick recently, but he was 39 years old.
So, my condolences go out to the Hill family.
There’s little I can do,
but pray for you.

And it’s gotten really, really cold in the house…should’ve turned my radiator up some before going to bed. Anyway, I’m just glad I don’t have to drive any where today…that’d not be any fun.
And now I’ve got lots of homework to do…wish me luck.

Ok, I updated my Photo Albums page. Added two new albums. The one actually contains decent pictures of the Rose-Hulman White Chapel.
Anyway, big news this week…

Kinda different don’t ya think?

Ok, we went over a problem in ECE 350 (Electronics and Interfacing) and Dr. Moore was doing a FET NAnd circuit analysis. At one point there is a voltage loss caused by something (no appearent current changes), what is that something? As Dr. Moore put it:
“The only answer I can give you, and you’re [...]

Yeah, I was just looking at the calendar and saw that…thought I’d let you know.
Anyone know what animal this is the year of? I’d search it, but I just finished the homework that’s due, so I’m going to bed. I’ll do the other problems tomorrow to get more practice.

Ok, today was awesome.
Why?
(Shortened version: Today was a good day, and I feel great about myself. Thanks to seeing two speakers today, I feel that coming to Rose-Hulman and pursuing a computer engineering degree are validated.)
Now, let’s begin.
I got to sleep in an hour today, and it was great. [...]
