and it works! It blinks on and off.
I’ve re-installed Ubuntu on Grandpa Alien and he looks better now.
All I have to do now is to figure out if Jumpstart online game will work on a Linux box, and I’ll be set. I don’t think it will. ah well.
oh, dropbox. gotta install dropbox.
Well, I goofed.
I wiped the old win XP box and installed Ubuntu. But i gave it the wrong name. It should have been Grandpa Alien, but instead it’s Grand Alien. ugh.
It’s aint that grand.
Boy, work has been rough recently. I’m learning new coding and procedures, but it’s like drinking from a fire hydrant.
I have updated all 3 sites.

Been too busy getting nothing done. Same old, same old. No excuse whatsoever.
Anyways. What have I missed?
Hmm..
Arthur C. Clark died.
We went to Atlanta GA. for our family’s spring break. More about that at the family’s website.
I’ve noticed that smoking is running up the price of gasoline. I’ve watched co-workers go out for a smoke and sit in their cars (too keep warm on very cold days) using up gas for no reason then to put tar into their lungs. nicotine into their blood stream.

Oh, one really neat and simple web site for LEGO Mindstorm NXT projects. NXT Programs. Dave Parker is a genius at simplicity. I love it. I’m checking his site weekly to copy his successes. I’ve actually built a few, I’ll get pics up eventually.
Ok, Ok, it’s more of a maintenance night than day, but it’s getting done. Now onto my wife’s website.
