Ubuntu 7.10 on Asus Eee PC

Although it's no secret that I'm a huge Mac advocate, I have to admit that I'm really impressed with this. I have seen and run Gutsy with Compiz on my massive notebook, but it's great that it's working on these new Eee PCs.

in Nashville... Who would have thought. (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parthenon_(Nashville)). Nashville seems like a pretty cool town. Vanderbilt has the most amazing facilities and the computer system there is amazing. I definitely think it will make it higher up on my list.

Snow everywhere

I flew from Seattle to Birmingham on Wednesday with a short layover in Chicago. I took this picture a couple of hours out of Seattle and there was continuous snow/ice the rest of the way to Chicago. I haven't seen snow in so long I had kind of forgotten what it looks like.

My interview a UAB was really nice, and the program seems great. But I'm not sure how much I would like living in Birmingham. Now I'm in Nashville for my interview tomorrow. These interviews are really starting to wear on me, but one thing that I'm definitely not getting tired of is all of the great dinners and free hotel rooms.

Not the best picture, but I saw this car in Seattle the other day. Man, I would love to get one of these, but I don't think it would go over as well in Houston...

Heading out West

Well I left for Seattle today. The flight was pretty uneventful for the most part. Shortly after we left Phoenix, we flew over the Grand Canyon and I got a few decent photos with the iPhone. I'll try to post some pictures from Seattle tomorrow after my interview. Hopefully this rain will die down some so I can go outside...
