Ahhhhlot of shit went down this week. My grandfather, who was sick for about a year now, passed away early on June 18. He was a good man, one of the best I've ever known, and I sure as hell miss him. John Christian Antweiler, may you finally rest.
...nothing I can possibly say can follow something like that. So everything else will have to wait.
Peace

Pictures from the Old and the Faithful
So I got to go to Old Faithful last week on business. The live streaming webcam had gone down earlier due to Windows Updates (damn restarting the computer, windows!) and while we'd got the stream back, we needed to make some minor adjustments. And by we, I mean the Media and Planning Office, Web Team of the Division of Interpretation, Yellowstone National Park, National Park Service, Department of Interior. And by all that, I mean that I was sent to Old Faithful to take care of things.
So I went. I fixed it. It now is not prey to Windows Updates, and I managed to get the stream to automatically relaunch on a crash. It's one thing to get a program to start automatically. It's another to get processes within the program to run. Whatever, I'm awesome.
While there, I stayed and watched the Grand Old Lady herself erupt before getting a quick lunch and bugging out back to my office.
Here are the pictures of the eruption: http://picasaweb.google.com/cgplumb/OldFaithful
Cheerio, now.
