Wes George's blog: July 2014

My little corner of the Internet for long-form posts. Travel, rants, whatever. Saturday, July 19, 2014. Sandbridge and other Beaches. The family and I recently got back from a week at the Beach, and since we went somewhere new this year it occurred to me that I now have some potentially useful comparison between different beaches that we've visited. This was our first trip to Sandbridge. We've gone to Avalon (Jersey Shore) in the past, and most recently we've been going to Ocean Isle, NC. Awesome Inc....

My little corner of the Internet for long-form posts. Travel, rants, whatever. Wednesday, January 11, 2012. A brief detour into VA politics. It's only a 200-word Letter to the Editor, but it is. In the Washington Post, which I'm pretty sure still has high journalistic standards, so that has to count for something right? Every so often, I read an article in the Washington Post that makes me upset enough to say, "I really should write a letter to the editor about this! Please replace "wrest" with "gain....

My little corner of the Internet for long-form posts. Travel, rants, whatever. Sunday, October 21, 2012. Thoughts on Android 4.1 Jellybean on Tablets. Not too long ago, we got a tablet, an Asus Transformer Infinity. Initially it was loaded with Android 4.0, but there was an upgrade waiting from Asus to 4.1, so we didn't use 4.0 very long. This isn't a review of the tablet itself, but rather some things I've discovered about 4.1 and how it works on tablets that I'm not exactly thrilled with.

My little corner of the Internet for long-form posts. Travel, rants, whatever. Thursday, December 29, 2011. Musings on the Facebook timeline. While I was on Christmas vacation, I took the fact that I had some free time as an opportunity to play around with Facebook's new Timeline. So, people might ask, "why fix what isn't broken? My view is that this was. Actually broken, and Timeline is a welcome fix (or at least a step in the right direction), and I'll attempt to explain why. Saturday, December 03, 2011.

My little corner of the Internet for long-form posts. Travel, rants, whatever. Saturday, September 25, 2010. Motorcycle trip - day 2, Greensburg, IN to Weston, WV. There was a grain elevator across the street, and a cell tower behind it, but as far as you could see in nearly all directions, it was corn, grain elevator, corn, grain elevator. We were both anxious to get away from the cornfields and into some more interesting riding. Also, September 19th is the annual observance of " Talk Like a Pirate Day.

My little corner of the Internet for long-form posts. Travel, rants, whatever. Sunday, May 09, 2010. Advanced home computer geekery. Apologies in advance if this one doesn't interest you, it's pretty hard-core computer geek stuff. Using 4 drives) started getting expensive, which brings us to my other reason for building it myself - price. Since the basic computer was free, I was able to build this for just the costs of the disks, the SATA card, and the Gigabit Ethernet card, which was about $350. A case ...

My little corner of the Internet for long-form posts. Travel, rants, whatever. Sunday, July 30, 2006. What would you do with $35 billion? 35 billion (that's billion with a B) in 90 days. Roughly extended to the entire year that is somewhere north of $100 Billion! There's lots of stories on the same topic right now, but here's my take on it. Problem #1: There's not nearly enough money being invested in alternative energy to produce results as quickly as they are needed. There's also question of liability ...

My little corner of the Internet for long-form posts. Travel, rants, whatever. Tuesday, February 14, 2012. Anyway, there are a lot of dining options in the Gaslamp Quarter area, so when we'd break for lunch, I pretty much just pulled up Yelp and looked for something interesting each day. Here's the short rundown of the places I tried:. This is sort of a strange setup, because it's actually co-located with a bar called the Stage Bar, but. Breakfast was provided during the conference, so Thursday was the o...
