Why I don't use Windows.

2008 Olympic Games, from the opening ceremony!!



Found this online tonight, thought it was funny. It reminded me of times when I had something important to do (homework, project, etc) , for some reason this always happened. Until i found the solution to that problem, which was buying a mac (its been 1 year since then by the way, and since then the problems have been much simpler to fix.

things i do NOT miss on a Windows BOX; Slow boot times, Blue Screens (now i have a slight chance of getting kernel panic's, it has only happened to me once), Clutter, Viruses, SpyWare, Hackers, Slow Applications, Expensive Applications (mac has a lot of free, powerful applications), Windows Genuine Validation, Windows Activation, BloatWare, Missing Drivers, Cryptic Error Messages, "modified" Apple Operating System Applications, and Themes (vista),

Things that Microsoft Makes that are BETTER ON Mac; Microsoft Office 2008, Halo, Windows media player components (lets windows media video load in Quick time) wow that was a short list, i thought it was longer.

... ok so I have not blogged in a while, i'm sorry i have been busy, hope to blog again soon.

Road Blocks – Ukraine 2008

Well its been about a year since I begun blogging, one of my first posts was about “road blocks? Link Here and I wrote it about problems my family had right before we went to Ukraine, this year what might happen, well for starters there is a massive fire burning close to my family’s home away from home, its like a one time a month short vacation home. (For more info look at the previous post ) that leads into the more immediate problems that my family has experienced here in Miami at our House. Ok to start the list the hot water heater in my closet started leaking all over the floor, and rotted the wood out under it causing my closet to be 1 inch deep in water, now that has all dried and the water heater is outside by the trash (I guess to see if its fixable. If not that’s a very large amount to replace, as it’s a little different than a normal one. Alright number two the clothes dryer stopped working, so we got rid of it and got a new one only to first get sold the wrong model by Brands mart, then the right model was not in stock, and once we got it, guess what it does not work either (this problem has still not been resolved). Ok Number 3 the Clothes washer started leaking today, we pray that it will not break before Ukraine. Number 4 the Dish Washer has a mind of its own, every other load it does not drain, last night it worked we hope it will continue to work . Alright so, Please pray for my family as we prepare to go Ukraine with CF this summer on the Mission trip, my parents and Lawrence will go for 3 weeks, and Gregory and I have been given the opportunity to go for the 4 FULL weeks which is truly amazing we can not wait.
We are no stranger to the “road block’s” as last year we did not get our passports until like the week before we left (were filed well before the trip), and our TV blew up, and my mother was sick if I remember right. This year right at about the same time as last year, these problems just spring up at about the worst possible time (before Ukraine) , as now I have a car and gas has taken off since I started driving, and now my parents have to pay a little more to pay for me (this summer I will begin to work, for gas money). Ukraine has gotten a little more expensive this year please pray for my family in our little hard time, and for an amazing mission trip this summer.

Fire in PalmBay Florida - Pray!

the fire in palm bay florida is getting worse and is growing daily, from what i can see, it it now extremely close to my family's house up there see the attached image. the school across the street was evacuated earlier this week, and flames could be seen across the street in the photos i have seen from that evacuation. this fire has burned thousands of acres of land, and destroyed manny houses, pray that it stays away from the development where my families house is, and pray for the others that have been affected by the fire.



our house is the one with the white circle around it, by the big lake.

ukraine thoughts & websites

So as we draw closer and closer to leaving for Ukraine, the same sort of things that happened are happing all over. Within the last 2 days at my house the Dryer no longer dry’s, one of the Hot Water Heaters leaks like crazy, the dish washer does not drain, all of this will cost lots of money and that takes away from the money set aside for Ukraine. Pray for my family and the others going on the mission trip.
Starting as soon as I get a chance I am going to publish right away, the photos that I have from Mississippi, and the video’s as well as some things from Ukraine last year that I have not published yet…
