ShimmyT Was Here

I am thankful for a lot of things this day and everyday. So for everyone out there happy thanksgiving and hopefully I will see you sometime this weekend.

On to some tech stuff. I guess it’s been a while since I’ve been on my Wii. It’s taing a hell of a long time to update. I’m hoping they have some sort of demo system setup now. Had to even change my wireless security around to get it to connect to the internet. I’m also still playing Gears of War 2. Just downloaded a demo of Fifa 09, and Lego Batman too. Still waiting for my 360 live card to come in the mail as well. I’ve already got challenges from friends for NBA 2k9.

Also I am bringing my moodle cluster plan back from the dead. I’ve got to remove some IP’s so it doesn’t interfere with production but so far so good. This time we will have much better testng in place before we go live. Keeping the fingers crossed for that one.

For all of the crap that’s been going on lately i’m surprisingly not angry or anything. Maybe just a little numb but hey everything can’t go my way all the time now can it.

Some profesionally news, I’m going to VMware training in December! This is really good news for me if anything just to help me out profesionally to get my certification. I’m really getting into VMware Infrastructure now. I’ve even started reading the blogs which is crazy enough in its own right. Also got the whole Altiris project happening right now as well. I will hold off judgement on that one for a little while longer.

Also in case anyone didn’t know I’ll be ordering a Xbox Live subscription. Never had one of these before, so not used to playing online. Will see how that goes. I am more looking forward to the netflix streaming that the new Xbox 360 dashboard provides. Other then that I’m really getting into the new Gears of War and looking to whoop my buddy Germaine’s ass in NBA 2K9. So I guess until next time Holla!

Well tried to put the Linux cluster to production and that failed miserably. After speaking with Red Hat support we’ve discovered that we “over engineered” our solution. So this week will be stupifying our cluster some. Should be a good one! Also I’m signed up for vmware training in December which will be pretty exciting. I’m hoping to get my certification from this too.

Other then that I’ve got some other things in the works thanks to some good friends. So I’m keeping my fingers crossed and mouth shut until I hear more.
