We won an award!

This year I was on the Festival of Trees team with the Mount Vernon Chamber of Commerce and Skagit Young Professionals. Our team was made up of mostly women, so the theme is decidedly girly. It was Diamonds are a Girl’s Best Friend from the old Marilyn Monroe movie. Our tree was part of the overall event which is a…

Observing…

Ya know, sometimes I feel like I’m watching the world flow past me like so much water down the river. In a few days I’ll be 31 and the last few years I’ve been searching for something. Myself. You see, somewhere along the line I lost who I was in so much work and blind ambition to build a business…

Some new photos

[et_pb_section admin_label=”section”] [et_pb_row admin_label=”row”] [et_pb_column type=”4_4″][et_pb_text admin_label=”Text”] For those of you who don’t follow my flickr feed, I went on a hike a little while ago and took a few photos. They are in reverse order so you see the hike backwards from the end to the top. I don’t usually take photos on the way up. Enjoy… [/et_pb_text][/et_pb_column] [/et_pb_row]…

A warning for anybody foolish enough to have a fingerprint reader from DigitalPersona

Yeah, I know, guilty… Turns out the reason my Visual Studio 2008 has been having TypeLibBuilder.exe crash constantly on client side script is the dpAgent.exe helper process from DigitalPersona. If you kill the process all is happy again.

Outlook 2007 with Windows Live Outlook Connector Error 0x80070057

Searching for information on this has been a MAJOR headache, mainly due to the fact that every moron on the Internet has posted the error code without knowing anything about the actual error or a way to fix it. Most of them just tell you to dump your outlook profile and start over. Well, I say that isn’t good enough!…

Blocking IP Addresses in IIS

I ran across this interesting little app today. Since one of the many things I’ve been occupied with lately has been managing a web server it caught my eye as a possible way to stop all the foreign scanning bots I’ve seen hit it lately. Worth a look anyway… Blocking IP Addresses in IIS Technorati Tags: block,IP Address,IIS,scan,bots,log

SYP June – Pool & Darts

Well, the Skagit Young Professionals met again for pool and darts. I took a few photos, but they were mostly blurry. I’d just been to the dentist so I wasn’t my usual jovial self in case anybody was wondering. We need to do this more often, preferably when I don’t have a sore tooth. If you shrink them some of…

No more Emergency Reporting

Well, after a short jaunt at Emergency Reporting in Bellingham, I’m on my own again. It was fun and the atmosphere was great. I’ll miss it. It was more of a vacation for me than anything else and I knew it would end eventually. Now I guess it’s back to the real work at hand.

Snow in April?

Last night we had snow! Snow around here is usually a once or twice a year thing in December or January, not April! I woke on Saturday to find the yard covered in the stuff. The weather around here sure has been weird lately.
