Meeting the First Lady

October 25th, 2007

For the last week and a half I have had the opportunity to work along side Secret Service and White House staff personnel to coordinate a visit by the First Lady, Laura Bush. Yesterday we were part of the mission greeting her when she arrived and today I was able to shake her hand a couple times. I was also able to get a few photos up close with her. As a side perk I was able to meet (and get a picture with) Greta Van Susteren from FOX News’ On the Record with Greta.

I have uploaded some videos (very shaky and poor quality) and some pictures (mostly blury). I will try to get some better photos from my friend who was one of the photographers for the event.

Videos from my China trip

I was just about to upload some more pictures from China but then I remembered I had videos that I had to upload to. These are some videos from the folk village and circus we went to. Some of them are kind of stupid and I will probably delete them later.

Loving the PSP

October 20th, 2007

I have been playing with my PSP quite a bit for the last few days. A lot of new homebrew has come out since the last time I played with it a couple months ago. I upgraded to a custom firmware (3.52 M33-4) and have found out how to play PS1 games and do video out to my PC through the USB port. Now all I need is a working VoIP client.

I think the PSP was my best investment yet. I gave my second PSP to Esther while I was in China and she has been loving it as well.

Speaking of China, I have been uploading about 20 pics a day to my gallery. I would like to upload them all at once but my connection is so crappy here that they keep timing out.

Busy last few weeks

October 12th, 2007

Well as you may have noticed I haven’t been posting recently. This is mainly because of lack of time. Quite a bit has happened in the last few months but I will start from 2 weeks ago.

On 24 Sep I went on vacation to China where I spent 2 amazing weeks with Esther. We went all over the place including: 2 days in Hong Kong, 2 weeks in Guanzhou (province in mainland China), and 1 day in Macau. I took hundreds of pictures which I have uploaded many of but still have about 200 left to upload. You can view them in the Gallery.

When I came back from leave yesterday I started my new job working in the ARCENT JVB (Army Central Command Joint Visitor’s Beuro). I like this job much more than my last because I am able to get out of the office and do more exciting things. I’m sure I will have much more to write about these next few months than I did in my last job.
