#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.

I don’t want to get up out of this chair and go to bed. I hate having to be on a “normal” schedule.

Avoiding most everything social media. I do t want to see the score of the #FIFAWWC game this afternoon. If I know the score or the winner, I don’t want to even bother. 🙉🙈

Go to a Summer Solstice street festival and it feels like I’m falling apart. Ankles swell from BP Rx. My foot hurts because I think I have plantar fasciitis. My back hurts from just standing around.

Get me on my bike and while my endurance is still fairly low, I otherwise feel great. So, it’s settled, as I get older, I must spend more time in the saddle.

Today’s game between the US and Sweden was one of the best games—that I have gotten to see—of this World Cup so far. I love watching Tobin Heath play.

Starting the like of paperwork so we can extend our stay in Canada. We have definitely liked Toronto and look forward to spending more time here.

The goal of the day was without a doubt Kanjana Sungngoen’s goal against Sweden.

It didn’t rain this weekend, so I got to get out on the bike. Not bad for my current predicament. I’ll be more comfortable when I can make this a habit again. I miss the days of riding 5-6 times per week. 4 will make me happy.

Good grief. I wish it were easier to stream.

In case there is any doubt, I am watching the Women's World Cup this month.
🇸🇪 ⚽️ 🇹🇭 this morning.
🇺🇸 ⚽️ 🇨🇱 now.

Tomorrow, I’m going to work on upgrading. Hope that’s okay.

The joys of tracking down malware.

Huh. I wonder what was on TV tonight?

I should probably be on a faster path to upgrades.

How? Why? Not even password protected? Please tell me someone was fired.

Did some maintenance. I should probably upgrade /and/ use this a lot more than I have.

I never feel like I have the time to sit down and do the work.

I think I’m going to have to dump one of my DNS servers. Cutting back on expenses. Even though, it’s on a relatively inexpensive linode, I need to cut back. I did like having 2 extras outside of my main hosting box.

This back to work schedule’s been okay. Last week was 4 days of 6hr days. I was exhausted. So exhausted, I am now getting sick. I’m not looking forward to my 8hr days coming up.

The subject of Reuben sandwiches came up in conversation. Reading the history of “Russian” dressing, and it is not surprising it’s not known in traditional Russian cuisine. But I just learned the best word ever…
