Wow.. it’s been a while… Lets see… Tina and I went on a little vacation to Charlotte where we hung out with a friend of mine and went to Carowinds. Your general run of the mill amusement park. It wasn’t too bad. A little sunburned, bad food, long waits (1.5 hours for two rides), and […]

Technical ideas

After looking at the new Hitachi DVD Recorder (uses 2x500GB disks to store data on it) I was wondering how feasable a Quadary(?) system would be. If you put two hard disks (or memory sticks, whatever) together, you can store data in a quadary system. 0 = 0 on both disks; 1 = 1 on […]

StriderA.com

StriderA.com is now in my ownership. I’ll probably put up my webpage and get the picture galleries online. Look out for fun stuff! Whee! I have my own ip! Mine! 216.179.62.187 *gasp* It’s like… I’m a whole person.. for the first time in my life. I could cry! Cyon from #topgamers has been very cool […]

Military Pay Charts

For anyone curious how much military personnel get paid… or curious as to how much I’ll get paid, you can check it all out here. I’m an E-4 with 3 years in service. In March I’ll have 4 years, and in April I’ll be an E-5. $200 pay raise. Sweeeet!

They’ve just released the line numbers to sew on in september. Generally, for SSgt anyways, they just take the number eligible and divide by 12. So, going by that information, here’s how this years chart should look like. I’ll be sewing on in April, so it appears. Maybe I’ll be lucky and it’ll be sooner. […]

Promotion Scores

Just more for my reference than anything

Stolen from insomnia

Christopher Walken for President 2008. That’s awesome. Too bad it’s not the governator. Then again, maybe he’ll throw in too. Schwarzenegger vs. Walken, next election. You think? I’d pay to see that.

Line Number

Just for reference, my line number is: 8,466 For those non-af people. This translates into when I actually get to wear it. They only allow so many people to put it on per month to stagger it out throughout the year. You can read about how they determine line numbers As to when I’ll be […]

Sgt Strider!

Sgt Strider it is. I just called my work and found out I made it. Yay!

Wolfs Rain

Tina and I just finished watching Wolf’s Rain. It was a pretty good show, and I’m glad we were able to watch it together. If nothing else, it’s nice being able to spend as much time together as possible before our forced separation. As much as I don’t want it to happen, it’s coming upon […]
