Noticed this tonight:

My old high school friend and neighbor, Johnathan “Fatal1ty” Wendel mentions how my brothers and I got him into FPS gaming back in the day (you can just search the page for “Brian”). Ah, we used to play Doom 2 deathmatch over the Novell IPX network I had setup in the basement. That was so long ago!

Those were the days. Wendel, if you’re reading this, keep it up!

GA pictures and first day at work!

Well, today’s my first day in Schematic‘s Atlanta office! Really nice and quiet. Traffic was…interesting, though. Needless to say, I won’t be taking that route often. You can find a ton of pictures below!

Coming soon, a long-overdue technical post: Who’s Online with Memcached

Wedding proofs…finally!

We received our wedding proofs! Low-res digital copies can be found here:

Learning OS X…the hard way…

A few weeks back, I had a need to install the latest copy of libxml2 on my Intel Mac Mini here at home. Little did I know what trouble it would cause!

First, after installing 2.6.27, I noticed that Colloquy, my IRC client, wasn’t so stable. After downgrading to libxml 2.6.16, all of my Office apps stopped working! The icons would bounce once on the dock, then poof…nothing.

So, after tons of Googling, I discovered the Console program. Upon running this and trying to start various Office applications, I noticed an error for libxml2! Now, of course I couldn’t find out what version of libxml2 was installed with the latest 10.4.9 update, so I SCP’d over all of /usr/lib/libxml2* from my work MacBook, onto my Mac Mini and poof…everything’s working again.

Insanity!

Another one bites the dust

…nah…only kidding! As some of you may know, Felicia and I were married on February 17, 2007. We left early the next morning for a cruise to San Juan, St. Maarten, and St. Thomas on the Carnival Victory. We loved the trip…I highly recommend cruising! A week was a tad too long, but it may not have been if we had stopped at one more place. But regardless, thumbs up for cruising!

You can find photos at the links above. If anyone wants the original, high-resolution images suitable for printing, email me!

I’m looking forward to getting back to work and focusing without any wedding-related items on my to do list!
