Let’s start with today. Today was good in that we solved a key problem with the JRCorps.com domain server. Hopefully this helps to solve some name resolution problems we have been having. If it doesn’t… well, I don’t know if there is a "what if" to that. Most of you haven’t noticed the problem though, thanks to the wonder’s that is the Internet’s DNS system. For those of you who wonder what the problem was… More than likely, it was a missing "." in one of the configuration files. Thank you DNS mailing list for the help with that one.
Also got the plans setup for the Twins Game tomorrow. 12:20 is the game time, meet us there at 11:30ish if you want to join up.
Today was also my Dad’s 50th Birthday. It’s amazing how we truly are all getting older. I will be 20 in less than 6 months. What have I done? Where am I going? What will I become… Only God knows that. The only way to get there, is with him by my side.
That roles me into my next topic. I watched Bruce Almighty with Amber tonight. Good movie. I like the message. For that reason, I think I’m going to type out my prayers, or at least, what they are in some form.
Just me again Lord,
Thank you for protecting me through yet another day. Thank you for the countless friends, blessings, and abilities you have blessed me with. Thank you for your forgiveness when I screw up. I know I’m good at that. Please help me to release my attitude towards the banking system as well as any other system that frustrates me, whether it be my linux box at work, or my server.
Lord, help me to serve you better. Help me to focus my talents for you. I know I make excuses and push back time, Lord please help me to make the time to be with you.
