Atlantis

by Urgo on February 14, 2005

I keep coming to this site every day and not seeing any updates and getting mad, then I realize that it is my own site and there is no one to blame but me. I bitch at everyone else for not updating their sites (although some really deserve it.. cyrus hasn’t updated since november, mike since july!!) and just slack off and I don’t update my site either. That is about to change!
I guess the biggest news I have to share since my last update is that although I still work for Verint I have shifted from the ‘spy department’ that works directly with law enforcement to what I guess you’d call the networking department who deals with telephone companies and other providers directly. For the past two weeks I’ve been working with the cell company Nextel to get our equipment all set up in there so they can be ready to send their data off to law enforcement like federal laws require of them if the need arises.
In this new position I get to deal a lot closer with networking techniques I learned in school and get to work with a product called STAR-GATE. =] Since StarGate is one of the shows I grew up watching, and now I’m addicted to StarGate Atlantis this is yet another plus. Also don’t forget that a few years after I started using the name Urgo StarGate SG1 created a character named Urgo so it was just meant to be! Oh, and lastly the fact that for my first day on the job I traveled down to Florida for the week and was able to stop off at Universal Studios for one day.
Anyway that should do it for this update. I think I’m going to try to push updates here once a week. I’ll try to set an example for those who don’t update their sites at all in the hopes that we’ll see new entries there. Oh yes, and 24 rules!

Sweet, I am looking to do an overhaul of my site russellsavage.com. One change was to upgrade to kernel 2.4.27 but from here it doesn’t look like that worked so well. I sshed in from work and after I though everything was good did a “shutdown -r now” and russellsavage.com never came back up :(. Oh well I will have to fix that when I get home. Congrats on the new position, I feel like I am getting more sys-adminny(well it’s a word now!)myself everyday. Which is good, I thought once I graduated college any of those skillz would languish. But I keep the linux box here up to date and my other one at home. Always good to have many linux boxes. I want a mac mini box too, but we can’t buy everything we want can we (hint: Russ’ birthday is April 22). Damn this is a long post.
