Well, today I took out my air conditioner. This may be the earliest I have ever removed it. I would sure like to know what happened to global warming though. We barely even really had a summer this year.

If this global freezing doesn’t come to an end we might enter the second ice age before long. I think I will go out and run my car for a couple hours.

Anyways, I have a bad feeling this might be a really bad winter this year.

I saw this cool product on thinkgeek.com. It was a stealth flash drive made to look like a old, cut, junk USB cable. It was 2GB in size and was selling for $30. I thought to myself, I want one. Then I thought, I could make this myself.

First I found an old USB cable then cut the cord on it around the middle. I then carefully used a pocket knife to cut down the sides of the connector. I then expanded the metal connector casing on it and removed the old USB connector. I then took apart my flash drive to be sacrificed for this project. Here is a picture of the flash drive I used:

I simply opened it up and removed the small flash drive from it. I then put this inside the connector on the USB cable I cut and opened up earlier. I securely attached it via super glue. I then put the sides back together with super glue also.

After that I cut the cut cable down a little bit to be around 4 inches long. I stripped the cable exposing the inner wires and I was done. Here is a picture of the finished product:

And here is an image of it in action plugged into my computer:

As you can see it looks like a useless cut USB cable plugged into my computer. Actually its a 4GB stealth flash drive. I wonder how many weird looks I will get using this in public .

I graduated College from ITT-Tech today.  I now have my Associates degree in computer networking.  I will have pictures uploaded shortly.  In the mean time, here is one picture of me and Kaleb (my nephew) after the graduation ceremony.

Yesterday I went with my dad on a business trip to Iowa. We went there, he did what needed done for about 2 hours, and we headed back. It is right about 6 hours from where we live and where we went in Iowa. So we did a 12 hour car trip in one day.

I drove about 370 miles of the trip. That is by far the most I have ever driven in a day. In fact, it probably even beats the most miles I have ever driven in a single week.

Well, yesterday was my last day of school!!! I have successfully completed my associates degree at ITT-Tech in Fort Wayne. The other good news is I also got a job this week working for Marathon Technology Group. Right now this is only like a part-time thing but I guess there is a good chance it will be full time in the near future. At least, I hope so.

As for graduation, I guess that isn’t until June 12th. So I guess I have three weeks between my final class and my graduation date. Not as bad as my high school one though, which was like 6-months between my last class and the graduation due to me finishing high school early.
