Dangerous Magoo!: March 2010
http://jasonsmcgee.blogspot.com/2010_03_01_archive.html
Musings of an engineer. Beware. Tuesday, March 16, 2010. This time of year always brings up the age old question of whether or not to choose BYU to advance for the first time in forever. Last year I got burned, and the year before that, and the . . . You know what I mean. But this year is different! Even computer simulations agree. Look at this (from ESPN.com). BYU ARE THE CHAMPIONS! However, I am banking on the Mountain West this year to perform. Have I learned my lesson yet to not take BYU? Any views o...

Musings of an engineer. Beware. Saturday, February 13, 2010. Nigeria Trip - Part 2. Here are two pictures of a fabrication yard in Port Harcourt:. Those tubes are huge suction piles. You sink those into the ocean floor to keep a floating production, storage and offloading (FPSO) vessel from drifting. They act as anchors. The camp where we stayed in Port Harcourt was like a little oasis:. The people are just in poverty. Below are some more pictures:. Here are some pictures from Warri:. I think one of the ...

Musings of an engineer. Beware. Monday, May 30, 2011. Russia Trip May 23-27, 2011. I had my first opportunity to go to Russia this last week. Not Moscow, not St. Petersburg, but Yuzhno on Sakhalin island. The trip was for business, as we went up to Yuzhno for a workshop and then traveled on up to our Onshore Processing Facility (OPF) that is near the top of the island. (Sorry the map is all grainy). Here was my schedule:. Leave for the airport at 4:40 AM. Busan to Seoul (7:30-8:30 AM). Upon arriving in Y...

A way to effectively waste time when there's something productive to be done. Tuesday, June 30, 2009. Dream Theater is one of my favorite bands. I love their music! It's kind of an alternative metal band with some of the greatest, most musically complex musicians of all time. Right now my brother is falling asleep to Dream Theater's new album, Black Clouds and Silver Linings. Just saying. Links to this post. Oh, I Almost Forgot. Ah, I have found you.'. Links to this post.

Dangerous Magoo!: August 2010
http://jasonsmcgee.blogspot.com/2010_08_01_archive.html
Musings of an engineer. Beware. Saturday, August 28, 2010. As part of a safety precaution when we are fabricating pipe, we have a hydro test, where we pump water in to the pipe at 1.5 times the operating pressure, to make sure that the pipe will hold up to any problems. This is me standing by our pipe we are pressure testing. This is another one of those projects I was completely in charge of (but not without mentoring). Thursday, August 12, 2010. This just made me laugh. I mean, I work for Exxon! The Ey...

Dangerous Magoo!: January 2011

Musings of an engineer. Beware. Thursday, January 27, 2011. Tour of Korean Apartment. Well, I finally took a video of my apartment in South Korea. The best part is the still shot that it shows below. Don't I look good? Overall, the apartment is huge for a single person. The quality is very nice, but there are a few things that I am still trying to get used to, such as:. You have to turn on your hot water heater every morning. Cold showers suck, so I learned really fast. Automated lights at the front door.

Dangerous Magoo!: July 2011
http://jasonsmcgee.blogspot.com/2011_07_01_archive.html
Musings of an engineer. Beware. Sunday, July 3, 2011. Fishing and a Sunburn. This week has been quite hectic. Two nights in a row I stayed at the yard until after 9 PM (making my day 15 hours of work). So instead of working a little bit on Saturday like I usually do, I decided it was time for a fishing trip. The day was foggy and at times threatened rain, but we never saw it. Despite the poor visibility at times, we still got to see the amazing beauty of this part of South Korea. Despite fishing for almo...
