Today is my birthday and I’ve been treated very nicely. It’s always strange for me because I’ve never been overly excited about my birthday. For presents, I received a second 19″ LCD monitor from my wife, which was a total surprise. It goes very well with my dual-head video card and my other 19″ monitor. I am receiving a GPS unit from my mom. I also received a new iPod nano (well, a refurbished 1st gen because I don’t like the new 3rd gen ones) to replace the one I lost during Christmas travels. Now, I need to prepare for my wife’s birthday which is in three months.

- As Amarok 2 gets closer to a release, it is looking better and better. There's a new feature in the works that will give Pandora a good fight: music biases. - #
- Today, two great things (according to me, at least) have been released: Firefox 3 and Wine 1.0. Nearly everybody should know what Firefox is, however many probably don't know about Wine. It is an Open Source project that works as an abstraction layer so Linux (and other POSIX) users can run Windows programs (such as Photoshop) on Linux without needing to have Windows installed. - #
- After a long wait, it is official. I've been accepted to the University of Glasgow's doctoral program in theology. The term starts in late September, so I'll be moving some time between now and then. - #
- I found a few problems with my reading lists regarding dates. I've fixed them all so that it is relatively accurate. - #
