So as you can see, it’s been a solid month since my last post here at Darnology. Life has been kicked into overdrive, and quite honestly there are just not enough hours in the day!  A lot of that change is going to effect Darnology in a pretty big way. Although I am not 100% certain about the exact time frame of this change, do stay tuned as it is surely on it’s way.  Maybe a slight change in direction?  Sort of.  It’s a wait and see kind of thing.

Bigger, better, more better [like the proper english?] things will be happening here sooner than you think.  It will be much different and perhaps shake things up a bit, but there will always be a Darnology one way or another.  That’s all for now class…

…but they sure are fun!  I just had to drop a snippet of an up and coming project that I think is quite cool.  I am working with with a pal of mine to create a really great web experience.  I will get into that more as it gets closer to launch [could be a while, as this is a big undertaking for a couple of nerds], but in the mean time, have fun trying to read the name, and enjoy the friendly mascot.

It has officially been one week and some odd hours since I have been without power thanks to the hurricane known as Ike.  Now, I realize that there are many more important things that were effected by Ike than my electricity situation, but being without power is certainly an annoyance after a couple of days.

As I am writing this I am sitting in a hotel in Bryan, TX where I will be attending a wedding later this evening.  I figured I would take advantage of their electricity as well as their free wifi, and just let anyone who cares to know that I still am alive.  I have contacted my current clients and let them know I am away from all things technology related until I get power again.  In the mean time, I continue to work as I can on the generator at my folk’s house in Houston.

We will be getting power again on Tuesday (9/23) of this week I am told, so we will see how that plays out.  Once that happens I am hoping that life can start to get back to normal sooner than later.  I miss getting to play on my trusty Mac all day long.

I am off for now, but hopefully will be back for real in the next few days.  Until then…

My Macbook Pro crashed today.  All it took was a corrupt startup folder, which was caused by a bad stick of memory to take me down a notch.  I guess it was bound to happen one day.  My good friend Mac let me down.

Oh well, it is still a thing of beauty, and with a fresh install of Leopard I will be back in action in no time!

Thank goodness for good backups.

As of this past Wednesday, June 11th, I am officially an Uncle. My wife’s sister had her baby girl, so that has become the new hot news around the family circle.

In the mix of all this, Emily’s sister Leslie wanted to have a way to share all the news about their families new activities involved with Baby Campbell.   Being the wonderful uncle that I am, I set up a little blog style site for them to keep everyone in the loop on all things Tipp related.

This is a super simple little blog site, but I really like how it turned out.  It is really clean and simple, and pretty easy on the eyes.  Just a fun little project.  Check it out if you would like…
