Confusion Squared

October 21 2005
     It seems I'm a bit confusing. I send out strange signals and wierd vibes. People catch onto these things and get confused. I never knew that I had this effect on people, but several of them have brought it to my attention. By "several", I mean seven. Seven people have directly told me these things. If seven people had the intestinal fortitude to approach me about this, how many more are sitting back, just watching and wondering?
     At first, I doubted. Surely, their reception was skewed. Surely, I would know if I was sending out rogue signals. But more people shared their thoughts. Now I wonder. Seven people, all sharing similar perceptions, can't all be wrong. How am I doing this? I'm sincerely looking for answers here.
     No matter what the context, my last wish is for someone, much less seven people, to mistake my intentions or the direction I pursue. I desire transparency. If anyone should examine my actions and speech, they should be able to know what I'm about.

What am I doing wrong? How do I fix it?

On to a lighter subject...
Boy I wish I had a digital camera. I would love to show you a picture
of linux booting on teh pod (my ipod). I have way more functionality
and customizability (I made up this word). Of course, I can't play my
iTunes downloads cause of all the DRM control, so I dual boot between linux
and the apple OS.


On to more important stuff...
Tonight (Friday night) is the Belle Aire Men's Conference. Free catfish
dinner, Brother Dean and Vance Pittman speaking, music by Nathan and
the gang... it's going to be awesome. All the college guys are invited.
Bring a friend. Totally free. Everything starts at 7:00pm in the AO
space.

yeah... I used linux on the iPod to play those sample vids before Apple even itroduced the video iPod... however, DRM in Linux on the iPod = no music.
