Hawaii

Well, I'm now in Hawaii.
Pretty nice.
Sunny and hot.
It's a complete climate change from Japan.
And I'm off to continue enjoying Hawaii.

MP3 player...

I just got a new mp3 player.
No, it's not an i-pod.
I dislike the cult following it, and feel somehow dirty for mentioning it here.
Instead, I got the sony vaio vgf-ap1l.
40 gigs, color screen photo viewer, and something else.
It lets you store lyrics and the album jackets.
Best of all, it's battery lasts for over 10 hours.
The interface is rather nice. A 5 x 5 grid of touch sensitive buttons.
As for the i-pod.. well, it's kinda like a piece of fruit. Full of nutritious silicon.

About the job...

I'm done with the introductory posts. (I hope)
Anyways, as my profile says, I'm in the Military. Navy actually.
I'm an electronics technician. (damn good one at that)
You know, the Navy isn't too bad.
The hardest part of it is being underway.
Not the rocking and seasickness.
Not the lack of land.
The biggest problem is dealing with the same people.
The same people who bitch all day.
Complain about the smallest things.
The hypocracy.
And of course the grumpyness (is that even a word?)
Thats just a small list of the problems people have.
My biggest complaint is the lack of drinkable coffee.
We have coffee, but no filters. Improvising, cheese cloth is used.
Okay, sure, it works. Don't forget that cheese cloth will make the coffe more black.
Yeah. they do. It comes out so black that nothing can save it.
Well, thats all I have for now. I might get to posting some pictures eventually.
[edit]
seems we do more with this stuff than with our actual jobs.

Webcomics...

Webcomics are rather addicting.
The biggest problem with them is you have to wait for daily updates, sometimes tri-weekly, or even worse weekly.
It seems they all update on the same days, just different spacing.
Well, now that that rant is done, It's time to check up on the updating...

First post...

Always have to start with a first post.
Too bad it's really late.
I need to recharge. Been a long day.
Going to bed at 1am, getting a wake up call at 5am.
It's almost 2, so I'm going.
