Nothing Much

Weeks blur into months. It feels like a long time and no time since my last post. I have been cruising at work. Due mainly to lack of leadership and motivation along with rewards for cost savings in the form of budget cuts. Now that I think about it my personal life seems to have followed the same pattern. Days are spent doing nothing because that doesn't incur cost. Thinking is free though. I have probably spent too much time in recent months indulging my imagination. Pondering science and technology mostly.

I have spent more time working with linux and have made some good progress. I have completed installation of a home server machine running ubuntu. It is my home network gateway/firewall/dhcp/dns/proxy server and also hosts some web pages. I went domain hunting and settled on exfinium.com. It seemed short, memorable and representative of the think-outside-the-square type of web site I envision running someday soon.

Latin:
ex - out of, from
finium - limit, boundary
