Short Post on Trip and Bond

Well life has been busy. Went to TN for the conference, that went well. I had a good time, met some nice people and my presentation went very good. I hope to go back next year regardless of if I present or not. (No problems with the trip up or back, so I lucked out from what I hear from Skrubby)

Saw the new Bond today. Most know I love Bond and was skeptical of the new guy. But he did a good job. Besides the hair issue I think he will make a good replacement. They even got the gun usage and finally the car usage right. I was afraid they might screw both of them up. I would recommend anyone go see it if they like Bond. While he is definitely different from the previous Bonds, his character version is good. This movie was about the beginning of Bond and how he became who he is. It makes a lot of things make sense.

A side note, I need Vol 3 of the special edition set from a few years ago and can't find it for under $300 new or under $100 for used. It has 6 DVDs in it. Hopefully I can find a decent priced version to finish getting the first 20 films.

Well back to all the stuff I have to do.

Halloween and Such

Well first things first..... BJD's party was great! I had a blast. The costumes were great, people interesting and just having a good time, drinks.... well we can all say they were good, and last but certainly not least, the ribs were great as usual. The party was so good that it even made my Saturday bearable.

The programming contest did not go so well for my team and all because we could not remember how to convert from an int -> string in C++. Of course now we do, have at least 4 implementations sent to us for that matter. I will probably never forget how to do it ever again.

In other news, I was accepted to the Galinberg, TN ACM Mid-Southeast Conference. So the weekend of Nov. 16 I will be up there. I think I present that Friday at 3:15.

Just finished Hain test #2. It was rough but not to bad. I said killer earlier but I think thats cause I got really dizzy and nauseous toward the end. As all my weekends lately I am busy and will be in Mobile again. I get to help move Cbot and possibly with BEST. Not 100% sure yet, guess we will see.

That be all with me lately, till later.
