#Introductions

I’m an IT guy, specializing in #DNS & #DHCP.
I‘ve been building a hate-group #DNSBL, based upon the SPLC’s list. For #BIND & #pihole.

I like #fountainpens. Introduced to them in school & loved them since. I went for years w/o using them until my wife & I decided to buy 1 for 1 another.

I like #analog & #digital #photography. I ❤️ toy 📷.

Also interested in #biology, #astronomy, #cycling. I’ve ridden my bike for charity in #aidslifcycle, the #av200, & the #RTCC #TheRideTO.

Come June 2018, I’m riding my bicycle 200 km in 2 days—from Toronto to Niagara—in the Envridge Ride to Conquer Cancer.

Monies donated benefit the Princess Margaret Cancer Centre.

I could use your help. More info here:

I probably shouldn't feel this way, but with how things are happening in the US, I don't even want to go back.

I'm keeping active by contacting my representatives, and I plan on voting absentee. I will continue to do so for the foreseeable future.

WHOA it's gonna be hot!

I'm going to melt or burst into flames. Atlanta's not even going to be as hot as it is here.

Welp.

Yes, I've been around, but not a lot. The bike ride was this past weekend. I didn't take nearly as many pictures as I would've liked.

It was a pretty good ride. I performed far better than I expected with the amount of training I was able to complete.

All in all, CA$18.3 million for the Princess Margaret Cancer Centre. 👍

That was weird. Upgraded to 2.4.1 and no errors, but after you login, the page is completely blank. It's fixed now, but that was definitely unexpected.

Good morning, Masto-land!

Today is my Friday. In two days, it’s #RTCC (Ride to Conquer Cancer) time. https://clair.bike

I’m riding in memory of my friend Dave, who is a Cancer survivor, and one of my oldest friends in Atlanta, Alabaster Juju, who passed last month from a rare and aggressive cancer.

I’m glad to be riding in the Rode to Conquer Cancer, but my heart will be with those riding in AIDS/LifeCycle this week.

Why can I never remember how to spell rapport?

I'll upgrade to 2.4.1 as soon as it's out of development. Currently at RC1.

The AC in our house is broken. Funny thing, this weekend was the first time we’d attempted turning it on this year. Back in Atlanta, it would’ve been turned on in March. 🔥

Finally, the holiday fireworks have stopped.

Oh, hello!

This year has been especially difficult. With the move to another country and other changes at work and in our lives, I haven’t had as much time to dedicate to fundraising. By this time last year, I had raised almost 6 times the amount I have raised this year. I am on track to not being able to ride.

I seriously need to find new ways of fundraising. Not for this instance or anything, but for the charity events I participate in.

This year, I haven’t even come close to my goal. I haven’t even come close to the minimu to participate. It’s discouraging, and makes me not even want to ride my bike. And my bike is one of my joys.
