I originally was going to post a sarcastic letter to XBox about the fact that a 60GB hard drive they sell doesn't come with a transfer cable, but I have decided to just be nice about it.

The 60GB Xbox Starter Kit doesn't come with a transfer cable. Be warned if you plan on buying it. I understand that it's being marketed as a starter kit, but they should still assume that people would buy to upgrade their 20GB hard drives. Yeesh.

The GOOD news in this all is that Xbox is sending me a transfer cable. It just has to get here :)

We buried a 20 yr old girl today. This was the first young person to come up through the youth group I serve in to pass away. Her car ran off the road and hit a pole. She broke her neck and died instantly. She had been away from us for awhile, no one really saw her as she lived a life of rebellion from her parents. She had just started to get her self straightened out, went back to school and graduated. Now she's gone.

Well,

I'm off to the GaETC Conference as of tomorrow night. I get to work tomorrow, then turn around and go work for the board of elections by displaying Election results. As soon as that is finished, (around 11:30), I will drive up to Atlanta, GA. Probably arriving around 4am. Get a couple of hours of sleep in the hotel, and head off to the conference.

And I did end up presenting this year! I'm "assisting" during the presentation my boss is doing about 4 open source apps we use in our network. The apps are:
