snow finally

well it finally snowed and there is a lot of it. last night i went for a walk and shoved a ton of snow. i love the snow. it just makes me smile.

i just got in to girl talk. he is pretty crazy. his mixes push mash ups to a new level or maybe a new word needs to be created for his mixes.

with these two items i've done a lot of smiling.

on a girl note, jeanna is still really confusing me. it is just weird how much fun we had a g love and since then it is like pulling teeth to hang out and the crap she talks about seems like she is purposely driving me away.

better of the two

it has kind of been bothering me, which movie is better little miss sunshine or stranger than fiction? i put in the soundtrack and hopped in the shower. as i was standing in the shower i realized that little miss sunshine is the better of the two. i base this on the role the music play in the movie. throughout the movie music creates themes that help drive the movie. and i would have to double check, but stranger than fiction doesn't really have this. as music is a very important part of my life this aspect of the movie influences my decision. although i think stranger than fiction is more "my type" of movie and it is hard to finally end this battle in my mind. i think little miss sunshine is the better of the two.

bday

megans birthday is juneteenth, june 19th. this is now in stone.

grep and me

this is a grep command to find all the files with lines that have cold fusion commands

grep -R --include="*.cf" -e "<cf.*>" /home/user/public_html

and you can extract the names of all the commands by using this regexp

/<cf\w+(?>)/

i wrote a ruby script to find all the commands that were being used by a system that has been having problems... hopefully this will lead to finding a system issue we are having.

big sky mt

well i just went to montana and was snowboarding at big sky. it was pretty fun. it was the first time i had snowboarded in 6 years. kind of a long time and in my opinion i kicked ass. i don't know if there was a single event to define the trip... brad busted up his ACL doing a "hellie" (360 on skies). we drank tons of beer and sat in the hot tub. the hot tub was kinda a pain because the hose outside was broken, so we had to fill the tub with a rubber container we found in the kitchen. we will just say i made a few trips, and matt was the one standing by the door dumbing the buckets in. oh, and there were a lot of fun shelly jokes (brad's wife). and isaac, you have to dail your own number to get your voice mail.

and with the lord on my side, i got to sit with a really cool girl on the way back, her name was helen remington. cool name huh. there are a couple of funny things i should mention. first she worked at moonlight basin, where i went snow shoeing one day and got lost. she actually recognized me from when i was walking down the road after i got unlost. appartently, she almost hit me with her car, she said she didn't see me... she also said she saw me in guest services when i was renting the snow shoes. before i met her on the plane i didn't recognize her (i started talking to her because she had a hungry moose hoodie on, which is a little grocery store by where we stayed). and lastly she was right off of starlight road which was the same road we stayed at. i think she was in 120 something and we were in 62.

helen was 21 and originally from portage wisconsin (i think). i also think jenny from dunn bros is from portage wisconsin. i'm going to have to ask. anyway we talked a lot and the flight was over before i knew it. she seemed into me, but i guess only time with tell. i look forward emailing her. see if something develops over this thing we call the internet.
