OkieInExile: One piece at a time: Part 1
http://okieinexile.blogspot.com/2011/02/one-piece-at-time-part-1.html
Adventures of an Okie in Exile. Saturday, February 19, 2011. One piece at a time: Part 1. After I built my itty-bitty Ubuntu box, I began to explore possibilities for this new design. For a user whose needs were modest, the smaller mini-ITX motherboard and associated smaller CPU were not a handicap. They were a right-size alternative to what "the man" wants to sell you. Buying all of the pieces at once so soon after having built my first mini-ITX computer would put too much strain on my marriage and my c...

Adventures of an Okie in Exile. Saturday, January 30, 2016. Stars of Heaven: Chapter 11. Chapter 11; The Blinking LED. 8220;I suppose you have looked at the numbers I sent you,” the Governor said from behind his desk. It was a red stone desk, carved from the stuff of Mars itself. 8220;Yes I have,” Wang Wei replied. “People are leaving your cold little planet it would seem.”. 8220;So,” Wang Wei asked, “Why are they leaving? 8220;They are leaving because they’ve been told that if they stay here it is...

OkieInExile: Piso Mojado

Adventures of an Okie in Exile. Sunday, August 12, 2012. By Bobby Neal Winters. I can’t speak Spanish yet, but the Rosetta Stone experience has opened my eyes to a few things in the world around me. I’ve learned lots of words, never having seen a single one of them paired with an English equivalent. The program shows pictures of situations and one discerns from the pictures what the associated Spanish word means. When something is being referred to by a two-word phrase, which of the words means what?

OkieInExile: Paraguay!

Adventures of an Okie in Exile. Friday, June 26, 2009. It was the visas that did it. Our passports where returned from the Paraguayan Embassy yesterday by special delivery yesterday, each with a stamp and a hand-lettered 90-day. If all goes as scheduled, by this time next friday my family and I will be sitting at the gate in Atlanta waiting for our flight to Buenos Aires. Tulsa to Atlanta, Atlanta to Buenos Aires, Buenos Aires to Asuncion. James A. Altena said. What SKF said :). The Okie in Exile. Piso M...

Adventures of an Okie in Exile. Wednesday, January 13, 2016. Stars of Heaven: Chapter 9. Chapter 9: It begins. Wang Wei looked at the video at William McClain’s habitat. It would incite emotion. Of that Wang Wei was sure. He was now afraid though it would be too much and of the wrong kind. He now wanted to make sure it wasn’t in the wrong place. 8220;You are sure the filters are in place? 8221; he asked. “This will not get back to earth? 8220;What about the leadership? These roaches had been designed to ...

OkieInExile: The Grey
http://okieinexile.blogspot.com/2013/09/the-grey.html
Adventures of an Okie in Exile. Saturday, September 28, 2013. By Bobby Neal Winters. Mr Virgil Gantt taught us in high school literature that there were three kinds of conflict: Man versus Man; Man versus Nature; and Man Versus Himself. One might wonder whether they are all three aspects of the third or if there is a fourth all-encompassing Man Versus God. Let’s leave that question, at least for now. We might well forget that. In my own personal taxonomy, it is what I classify as a Man’s movie. Neeson...

OkieInExile: The end of the mother-in-law board
http://okieinexile.blogspot.com/2011/01/end-of-mother-in-law-board.html
Adventures of an Okie in Exile. Monday, January 17, 2011. The end of the mother-in-law board. As of my last blog entry, I was waxing philosophical having replaced every single part of my mother-in-laws computer but was feeling confident that putting in a heat sink for the CPU would be the. It turns out that I was a tad optimistic—but only a tad. Sunday afternoon, I installed the heat sink, powered-up, and it booted into BIOS. That wasn't quite as. Veni, vidi, vici. As we teach our children, "Just say no!

Adventures of an Okie in Exile. Sunday, August 28, 2016. Journey into Darkness: Pitch Black revisited. Journey into Darkness: Pitch Black revisited. By Bobby Neal Winters. Last year about this time, I wrote a review for the Pittsburg Morning Sun of the movie Pitch Black. It can be found. I’ve rewatched it one more time and would like to revisit it. There will be spoilers ahead, but as I’ve seen this movie six times and have liked it better each time, I am not too worried about spoiling it. As they seek l...
