Wife let me pick up a GPS today. A nice little Garmin nuvi 200. It was only $129. at white trash mart. I decided to register it online and up date the software and maps.While trying to update the maps, and I do stress trying, I noticed my McAfee kept kicking on and off. Well, the update crashed after a while and I started running a virus scan. It is still running but it has already found 12 version of a virus. This one is called JV/Eploit-Gimsh. And they are all in the Sun Java folders.
The same program that was running while trying to update the GPS. I hope to hell this goes away. The virus I have at work will not go away. I run McAfee and it will delete 12-15 parts of the virus, but can't touch one wee little bit. Then it just spreads all over again.
I will finish this scan with my fingers crossed. But my luck, I am screwed.Just as I am with my work server.
Wish me luck.

February update
Well, not much to update.
Seems like the auto focus is going on my Backyard camera (that is indoors right now).
I have a few more of these cameras so I might try to replace it soon. My IR cameras still kick out every day and I need to reboot. Getting sick of that.
Anyway, been spending some time at work on paint and wallpaper. Gotta try to make this place look somewhat OK. I sit at home on my laptop and look at numbers, bank accounts, etc. just looking for ways to make this work.
The one thing I look forward to is brewin' beer. I am so close to brewing my first batch of all grain I can taste it. Two years of extract brewing, soon I will be moving on to better beer with even better flavor. Not to mention 10 gallons at a time instead of 5!
I should be go up north soon to pick up 300 LBS. of grain and 2 LBS. of hops. Will be a nice trip away from here, a nice lunch, some good beer, and supplies to start brewing again.
Now, if I could only find a second 15.5 gallon keg............ huuuummmmmmmmmm....

More Snow
Boy the snow is flyin'. I had to get my kids out of school two hours early for no reason, but the snow we were looking for is now here. Looks great of my cameras, but hate what it does to business. Not to mention school closings.
Wife is at a meeting a little to far away. Worried about her getting home in her piece of crap Neon.
Would do anything to get her a new car, but that is a long way off.
Biggest Loser is not on tonight because of some damn Basket Ball game. Funny how I like to watch a show that I should be on.
Going to get the kids in bed soon, might play a little Zelda on the Wii. Makes me forget whats going on and takes me back to my childhood.
Nothing new going on with the website for now. Besides the two cameras that freeze up every 6 to 12 hours, everything seems to be running. Need to add some memory to all my machines.
When it warms up, both PTZ cameras will be going outside. I even have this little idea about an underwater camera for the pool. It would be something different than other websites have, but I am sure the wife would have something to say about that! LOL
Just want to do more with this site, but not sure what yet.
Feel free to send me any ideas. Or money... I could always use money. Oh, or beer! Need some viewers fom Germany, or over sea's to send me some real beer!
Man, I really need to brew some damn beer.

Snow.....
Snow, snow, everywhere. As always it causes more problems then it is worth. Looks purty and all, but the roads are a little bad. It is going to get worse with freezing rain tonight. Wife somehow managed to get to work in her piece of crap car. I would have taken her in the truck, but the kids were in bed and the babysitter couldn't make it off her hill. One employee couldn't make it in because of the snow, one employee is still out due to family health problems, my part time employee has been working far more then she wants too. It is only a matter of time before she gets fed up and quits. And one employee has given me her two weeks notice. That leaves two part time girls that are going to the BIG school here. They are the best, but need to work around schools classes.I need to hire someone really bad. But I am shocked that no matter how bad the world is, or how hard it is to find a job, that NO ONE seems to want to work. Now, I know I don't pay much, but the job isn't hard. People want to sit home and collect a check I guess. And things will be far worse in the coming years as people see they can sit home and get bigger checks and pop out more kids to get even more money...Sad damn world we live in.
Add to that the tax rates, and competition in the tri-state area, and the town I live in, business is BAD. I have made it 3 or 4 months longer then I though, but things are not getting better. I can only hope for cash to start falling from the ski at this point.
Later.

Christmas, cameras, work, New Years
Well, Christmas is over.
The kids are happy. Well, for now. They had some great gifts. One gift "the girl" had was the Nintendo Wii. One gift I gave "the wife" was the Wii fit. And one gift she gave me was a Zelda game. I grew up on Zelda. And I love it. If I am standing up or even sitting down to play this game, I forget to drink! And if I am not drinking beer, well, I guess that is a good thing. Which brings me to my wife's gift of the Wii fit. I set up the game and the little pad, box, thinging that you stand on. Well in doing so you need to set you "person" up and then stand on this thing. Long story short, it set an age for me of 61!!!!, Oh and it said I was the O word. You know. The word that comes after over weight.
Now, I know I am fat. I have been fat since my first marriage. For three years of high school I was at 165 Lbs. at 6 foot 3 inches. I know weigh,,,, wait for it............ wait.......... 245. And I seem to have lost an inch. I am now at 6 foot 2.
Is the extra weight making me slump an inch?
I don't know. But I know I am fat. I have known that I am fat for 15 years. I don't need a computer game to tell me that. I don't need said game to make a noise when I step on to the pad, but it did. I don't need this game to make my little person that I made even fatter then I did when I created it, but it did. SO. As of Jan. 1st. I plan to change many things. The amount of beer I drink is the first thing to be changed. I don't really eat. Not much anyway. But I also don't really move around much. So I figure a change here and there, I should be good!.. Well, I hope.
And did I say that I like Zelda! hehe, It has been around one way or the other for years.
I did add the kitchen camera. It like the dining room camera, isn't always on. But it will be more and more in the next year. The problem with the kitchen camera is that it isn't a wide angle lens. It only picks up half of the kitchen. I can't afford to buy any other camera at this time, so it will need to do. I have thought about adding a second kitchen camera and set them side by side and somehow put the two images together. Now, I don't know how to do this, and the one person I know who does is a little busy as of late. I don't want to bother him with some thing so small as my website. So the picture you get for now is the pic you get.
Every New years is about he same in my house. I wake up the wife as the ball drops, and she rolls over and goes back to sleep. Not much will change this year. Lets just say that I will be awake. AND I will be sure to stay awake most of the night.
I will say it out loud. I will type it here. If I do, I might make a change or two in my life.
By July 10th or so I hope to be 20 to 30 Lbs. less.
The only way to do that is to move more! Drink less, and ???????? I don't know. But I do know that I am in the worse shape of my life.
Wish me luck.

New camera added.
Well after plugging away at the computer for hours I figured out my problem and got a new camera going. I was working with ports on my router, settings in WebcamXP, settings in the web page, and finally figured out the problem. I had set up the IP on this system the right way, just in the wrong place. I added a wireless USB drive to this computer to network. That is where I needed to set up the IP. Not on the internal network card. I learn, slow, but I learn. So, I have one webcam set up in the living room. The link to the kitchen camera goes to this same camera. I will change that when I get the other webcam going. Wife is far from happy. So the camera hasn't been up much today. It was our day off after all. I wish she liked the site as much as I do, but she doesn't. When the dining room and kitchen camera are up I plan to have them off most of the time. Sad, but I need to give a little. I plan to build something for the living room PTZ soon and stick it outside. That is where I was always going to put it, it has just got pushed back on my list for a while. But look it here, after two years or so this site has finally started becoming what I always wanted. Well, except the design part! But a little at a time I guess.
For Christmas this year, my wife told me to order some things to finally get into all grain brewing! I can't wait to make my first batch. Might be able to shot for the middle of January.
I am sure I will be missing those last little things, and wont even know it until I am in the middle of the brew.But it will be fun. Oh, and I am still missing one more brew pot. So I guess I will need to spend a$100+ to purchase a used beer keg. They are far to hard to find now-a-days.(Legal kegs anyway). So I will need to buy one. I wont bother to bitch about the keg I HAD for this. But I will tell you I will never see it again.
Enough for now. Look for the kitchen camera soon. I will keep adding cameras as long as I can! Wife did say that once the cameras make it to the second floor, or third floor, she is gone. And since I do like her, I guess I will keep them down stairs!

Sad, little happy, but sad.
I broke into my second bottle of Rogue Imperial India Pale Ale. I only had two bottles, and I took one bottle to a meeting and was nice enough to share. Had I knew how good this beer was, I would have drank it in the basement.With no one to watch, and without pants. Don't get me wrong, I like to share. But at this time my cash runs low. And this beer is GOOD. $16.00 good? I don't know. If I was rich, it would be GOOD everyday. I haven't been brewin' beer, so my taps run low. I spent too much time on Mead. But in a year or so, I will have a good bit on hand to drink. On the plus side I hope to be jumping into all-grain in the next month or three. I hope my beers go to the next level.
On the website side, I have a third desk top computer up and running. The keyboard and mouse needs to be replaced. The monitor is old and a little big, but it works for now. And after running some major software on this computer (Thanks Travis), I only found about 1700 problems.The computer is still over loaded with programs and software that isn't needed. I wish I could take it back to a copy of XP and nothing else but I have no idea how to do that. So, I am running it as is. I added a few programs, but haven't add webcamXP yet.
I hope to have two webcams up soon.(soon as I pick up two of the cheap ones). One for the dining room, and one for the kitchen.Later when I find some video cards, I will add a few more cameras. But so far it is just running Seti at home, and what ever else is in the background that I haven't gotten rid of yet. I don't have a restore disk, and I am not smart enough to restore the computer without one. But like I said, it is running. I am going to fix up a slide show of family photo's in the next week or so, set up a link to the desk top, and let her run. Hell, only 4 people come here anyway, and they don't look around too much. But I will just pretend this computer is a big picture frame.
Sorry, I will read this later. But for now I will just post it. I am sure it is a messed up as all my other post, but I really don't care.I just post because I can.What hte hell is grammer??!!!!!
And yes, I love the ,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,
See ya...
