Basically, life in 2012 is easy. I’m living on a farm, I own a Prius, I’m co-owner of two cows, and never really have anything that I have to do. Well, now, that isn’t exactly true – I do usually have to milk one of the aforementioned cows when I’m on the farm. I get to travel all over the country, and am still able to put money aside for the future – whatever that may be....
Indeed, you were probably well aware that surprises abound, this week especially – who ever saw HP bailing out of the PC business? I mean, I have owned nothing but HP laptops for the past eleven years!!! Of course, you know that’s not what this is about. But what else do you know? Knowing that something is not is a far cry from knowing what something is. I’m rambling, and I’m well aware of it....
You may have noticed that the domain name for this site has changed from AndrewDAnderson.com to **AndrewAnderson.com **. I’m terribly excited about it, despite the fact that it cost me the same as a trip to Thailand would have. Of course, the omitted letter probably doesn’t mean much to anyone else – my old email address works just fine, and you can get to this site via either address. Hopefully, this new domain will allow me to capture more traffic for “Andrew Anderson” – since, I’m sure, most of those searches are in fact for me 😉 ....
If I could only say one thing about the past year, I’d have to say that it was an interesting one… I got out of college, stuffed my philosophy degree in a box, moved out of my little apartment in Chicago, and hit the road with my uncle. Together we drove (actually, he drove and I rode along) all over the Midwest and some of the Southwest and Northwest. I got to see more country (and more freeway) in a short six months than most people see in a decade....
Well, now, as it turns out, I think my last attempt to cover this topic was a success only in making a mess of time and space. They are separate, so I am told. Bundling them all together so haphazardly made my thoughts quite a bit more convoluted than they had to be. Since this issue has really been bothering me lately, I’m going to tease things out a bit more here....
When I was about ten, visiting my mother for the summer in Bullhead City, AZ, I met a man by the name of Mike Anderson. He seemed to me to be rather intelligent, was undoubtedly quite an interesting fellow, and fueled my interest in a number of things that occupied my time throughout that summer and beyond. Most of the things he got me thinking about were “paranormal” – things like telekinesis, out-of-body experiences, and telepathy....
Well, now, where to start? Last time I wrote I was in the midst of mountains and forests in beautiful Northern Idaho. The weather was blissful, the scenery was soothing, my uncle was tolerable… I almost felt like I was having a good enough time to justify the ~2k mile trip out there. Two weeks of the good life passed and my other uncle called. Two days later my two uncles and I were in Chicago....
With Chicago behind me and Idaho all around me – life is certainly different. (So is the site design, eh, what do you think?) Northern Idaho is beautiful, with low humidity, plenty of sunshine, and near-perfect temperatures. Well, at least for the past four days… I’ll try not to get so far ahead of myself… Last Tuesday, moving my things went well – the thunder storms abated a bit and that was certainly a welcomed change....
I’ve been a graduate for five days now, and I already have great things in the works for this website of mine. I’m redesigning the whole place from the ground up! That’s all I can say for the moment, but keep an eye peeled for breathtaking updates shortly.
The title says it all. If you’ve been waiting to tether your Sprint Samsung Moment to your laptop, the wait is over. Well, assuming that you have root access.
