My 1977 R100/7 BMW

This is what it looked like when I brought it home. Getting it home is a long story for another time. Thanks to Greg for driving it home and helping put on the adventure.

What I like - Origami Paper Wallet

I couldn’t find a wallet I liked so my brain said I should make my own.  I picked this origami wallet. You should know you have to use scissors and tape so not technically origami but it is easy. If you make it out of paper you can jot notes or phone numbers right on it. I made mine out of a Tyvek  Fedex envelope. It still going strong after almost six months.

Monsterlist of Halloween Projects

The ultimate list of cool Halloween projects. It is almost to big. You’ll have to do a page search to find specific projects you’re looking for. It would take days to go through all the links and view all the pages.

What I like… Disable Capslock

I never use capslock, don’t know when I would ever use capslock and hate when I press capslock and don’t know it so I found you can disable the capslock key. It works very nice. Try it out here… [ LINK ]

What I like…. Cursors and Linux

Here is a link to the cursors that I’m using now. It the Umbutu Cursor theme. I think its much nicer than Vista’s or the Mac os style.

Also If you want to try something different. Try a Live version of Linux. It’s and operating system that runs completely off the cd. It doesn’t mess up anything on your hard drive. Most people have Windows but there are a few Mac people. Steve and Matt that means you… I don’t know the procedure for Mac but for windows it’s easy. I have tried many different versions of live Linux’s? I like Ubuntu and PClinuxOS. Either will work but PClinuxOS 2007 worked the best from the start. You can buy it for $5.99 on a disk or if you can burn a cd you can burn a copy of linux to cd. Once you have the cd pop it in your cd drive power down and restart. On the restart hit F12 right away a few times and you should see the option to boot from your cd rom drive. Some computers auto boot to a cd when it detects one so the F12 thing wont be necessary. If you have a laptop it will set up your wireless connection when you start. Let load up. It takes some time so be patient. when it’s done click on Firefox and surf the web.
