1. I Miss My Brother

   I miss my brother. My wife picked up the Shrek 4-pack from Walmart tonight, and we watched it as a family. The very beginning of the movie is the song, Hallelujah, performed by John Cale. I helped Ross figure out some of the chords and how to tab it out ...

2. Upgrading and Needing a Package

   I have decided something that is quite frustrating is when you're currently upgrading your system (in my case, sudo pacman -Syu) and you realize that you need a package on your system that you do not currently have like, say, rsync. So you can use it to publish your ...
