Ok I'm sure some of you have heard of distributed computing and also peer to peer networks. I'm sure some of you have heard of Seti@Home. Well here is something that might just be what you are looking for. United Devices Cancer Research program. Check out what they have to say. If you join up join the group I have created for Live Journal users and also for a Yahoo Club I am a founder of called CGA
Here is the link to join the team Live Journal and CGA Against Cancer. I really feel this is a great cause to put your unused computer time to. Try it out and maybe we might acutally help towards bettering the world!
Well after my little doctor's visit yesterday I have decided to try and take some steps to living a healthier life. I'm going to drop my 5-7 cans of diet soda a day. Try to limit that down to no more then 1. I'm going to start drinking lots of water, fruit juices, and milk (like I used to). This should help in case I really do have some type of issue with my Kidney (which would probably be because I don't drink enough water it's working overtime...). I also am going to start trying to eat a bit healthier, went to the store today and got some bananas and grapes. I also picked myself up some fruit cups to take to work. I'm going start bringing meals into work for lunch. Maybe not everyday but at least a majority of the time. This will probably help me save some money as well. I'm already trying to work on getting more exercises, trying to play basketball with my friends, although finding the time has been tough. Soon we will all see the new and improved Dan! Muhahahahaha! =)
Ben Folds Five was a great band and Ben Folds is amazing when it comes to writing lyrics, I'm really looking forward to his first solo effort due out late May...
Evaporated - from "The Unauthorized Biography of Reinhold Messner"
What I've kept with me and what I've thrown away don't know where the hell I've ended up on this glary, random day Were the things I really cared about just left along the way for being to pent up and proud
woke up way too late feeling hung over and old and the sun was shining bright and I walked barefoot down the road started thinking about my old man it seems that all men wanna get into a car and go anywhere
CHORUS here I stand - sad and free I can't cry and I can't see what I've done God. . .what have I done
don't you know I'm numb, man no I can't feel a thing at all 'cause it's all smiles and business these days and I'm indifferent to the loss I've faith that there's a soul somewhere who's leading me around I wonder if she knows which way is down. . . [on demo:which way is up and which is down. . .]
CHORUS
I poured my heart out I poured my heart out it evaporated. . .see?
Blind man on a canyon's edge of a panoramic scene or maybe I'm a kite that's flying high and random dangling a string Or slumped over in a vacant room head on a stranger's knee I'm sure back home they think I've lost my mind.
Wasn't I supposed to do one of my lists or something today? I can't remember... my week is all messed up with calling in sick the past two days. I will be back to work tomorrow!
