Ohh... writing.

Yes, that thing that I hate. That is, I hate it if I have to do it properly. I can write on here and that doesn't bother me. Why? Because no one is marking it, no one is judging it and it is meant to make you feel like I am talking to you. That is the way that makes sense to me. I guess that not everyone feels that way because I needed to resubmit my work term report because of my writing style. When I look at the corrections that the marker made, they all make perfect sense. In fact it makes me realize that I don't really know the first thing about writing formally. I also lack the dicipline to write informally for very long as well so I can't cast off formal writing forever. My career has a novelist would likely be quite sort-lived. In any case, I thank all of you for your continued patronage despite my rambling, incoherent style. :) Cheers

It has started

I have started the wheels moving on my Linux install. By that I mean, I am downloading the ISOs for it. I went out and bought a 120 GB hard drive yesterday that I still haven't installed yet. I fully plan to reinstall Windows 2000 after a format to remove any maladies that my computer currently possesses. Once that is out of the way, the task of installing Gentoo Linux begins. Why Gentoo? I've heard good things about it. It has an impressive package management system called emerge and I have seen it in action.

I will make sure that you hear about all of my frustrations that occur during the process, because I know that I am not going to get out of this one without a hitch.
