What’s on My Mind

Sunsets and Misplaced Hope

I have been studying for a Red Hat certification test for months.  Imagine how distressing it was to fail it on the first question.  Then imagine that I was looking forward to a lunch meeting next week with Red Hat Reps and Linux Engineering team at work, that just happens to have an opening in the department.  Anyway, that is how Friday went.  I got an OK picture of the sunset and felt like it was [...]

Yes I Am a Geek

Baby Animal Days

What is baby animal days you ask?  This was a “tradition,” isn’t a tradition something that you want to do every year, back when I was going to school.  Anyway on Easter weekend the American West Heritage Farm in Logan has a big event with blacksmiths, mountain men, a baby animal petting zoo, and other old fashioned activities ie May pole, greased flagpole with a couple of hundred dollar bills, and kids rodeo.  It is always [...]

I have tried many different places made my own, and could never get everything in balance. Finally, a new [...]

Closed For The Winter

Hi-Ho, It’s off to work we go, well not me I had the day off.  I took my brother to his office, and I must say that he has a great office.  It is up Big Cottonwood Canyon at a ski [...]

Blued BBQ Beef Sandwhich

This is for the blue cheese lovers out there.  You know who you are.

Two pieces of bread toasted.
A mound of sliced roast beef
A sweet BBQ sauce (the sweeter the better)
A little bit of blue cheese you only want a touch.
Some caramelized onions

Put everything on the bread and…  well, it a sandwich, I shouldn’t have to explain it.  I will say that it is much better hot than cold.

As with all this beef and blue cheese, bacon [...]
