Thought for today

This semester I am taking a variety of classes one of which is U.S. History and culture. One of the interesting things that I have taken away from this class is the culture of the Native Americans tribes. For instance did you know that the women had the final say in any trade made by her husband. On top of that women were the ones who divided the food between the tribe. But the most interesting thing I learned was that most of the tribes traced the genealogy through there wife's side of the family.

Trying something new

Right now I'm sitting in the library at school ''studding'' for my quiz in geology at 11 and I needed a break. So I'm trying to make a post using my palm. It takes a little getting use to and is not as fast. Now for something new I call it the fact of the day. Did you know that the largest diamond found in the world was about the size of a bowling ball. Where is it now? It has been cut several times the largest piece is the size of a tennis ball. Currently adorns the top of the royal scepter of England.

New Gadget

Most people will tell you guy's love gadgets, well that is true. At the start of the school year there was one gadget that I really wanted it is a Palm TX. Sure enough I got my gadget and It has been the biggest help to me. I do not want to sound like I'm defending myself but my memory is getting very shotty and I'm forgetting things left and right. However, Now that I have it I have all my classes and assignments in it along with scriptures both bible and book of Mormon and hymns with the children hymns book and the current president manual. On top of that i can use it as an mp3 player and surf the web. So I think like it is a very reasonable purchase.

Friendship bread

My wife (with my persistance) is making friendship bread which is the best bread ever. It takes over a week to prep the bread the main ingredance which is a bag of milk shugger and flower. However, when the bread is cooking it smells hevenly. If you ever get a chance to make it it is well worth it.

Geology & College

If you were wondering where I found out about the giant quartz crystals, it was from my geology class. However, the information about this amazing discovery is a couple of months old, April 9 of 2007, which shows you just how much out of the loop I am. Now considering that my major is geology, I need to work on being better informed about this kind of thing.

A couple of weeks ago I started a class that I didn't think I would like that much. It is American History and Culture. It sounded like all the other boring history classes that I have taken in my life. I have been pleasantly surprised at the information that we as a class are covering, some I have never heard of or even thought about before. For instance, did you know that in the Native American culture before the Europeans came over was mostly a Matriarchal society? Meaning that the women were more in charge of things than the men. For example when men the women were married it was the man who would change his name, and their lineage was traced through the female side rather than the males side.

Kind of interesting.

Life Cycle

My wife and I received this E-mail about how a pack of dogs took on an alligator it came complete with a photo of the event the following text is what we received.

“Read the story first before you decide whether to open the attachment or not...

I wouldn't recommend eating while you look at this but as a Natural history picture it's fantastic.

Dog Pack Attacks Alligator in Florida: At times nature can be cruel, but there is also a raw beauty, and even a certain justice manifested within that cruelty. The alligator, one of the oldest and ultimate predators, normally considered the "apex predator", can still fall victim to implemented 'team work' strategy, made possible due to the tight knit social structure and "survival of the pack mentality" bred into the canines. See the remarkable photograph attached courtesy of Nature Magazine. The Alpha dog has a muzzle hold on the gator preventing it from breathing, while another dog has a hold on the tail to keep it from thrashing. The third dog attacks the soft underbelly of the gator.

Not for the squeamish! Not really! But go ahead and read the story first anyways, trust me! “

Game Night

Lately my wife and I have geen inviting friends over and playing games with them like Cranium, Clue the great Museum Caper. My favorit game is the last one it uses the classic charictors from the orignal clue game however, in this version it is a littel different. One person playing is the bad guy and the rest is are the charictors trying to find the bad guy and stop him or her from stilling all the art in the museum. This game is not in stors any more but it is the funest game that I have ever played. I like being the bad guy it is very tense trying to sneek arround and still all the paintings in the museum and not get caught. Another game that I like is Risk 2210 a verson of the game brought into the nucler erea with the addition of concering the Ochens and the Moon makes this game realy difficulet. What game are your favorit games?

Norfolk Terrier

I think that this is the cutesiest dog in fact this is the dog that I want to get when we move into a house. We use to have a beagle she was very cute but we were having trouble finding a good apartment that would allow us to have a dogs. In fact all we could find were rundown old apartment in scary neighborhoods. So getting a dog now would not be very practical.

MY BAD

Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket

Well if you know me you would come to find out that I have this thing about myself that my wife calls it being a pack rat( she might be right of coarse). However, I would like to clarify what really happens (this goes for most of my stuff but not all of it) when someone or something happens that I like or care for I attach some sentimental value to it and I'm a very sentimental kind of person. This has led to a collection of odd stuff for example rocks, pens, key chains, my old mission letters and pictures, and a variety of nuts and bolts. Now I really have a weakness for pens I for some reason think that they are really neat and I can not get enough of them. If you do not believe me all one has to do is look at my pen holder it is bursting with writing utensils and I have some more stored away in the desk drawer. To top it off I have picked up several free pens with the name of the company that is giving them away printed on it. I have some from as fare away as Mexico one has a had woven covering with my name woven into the design. Out of all of these there is one that has been my prised possession it was given to my on fathers day last year by my sweat wife. I do half to admit that when my wife presented me with it as a gift I was a little let down, she had been going on about how she got a tool for me so naturally I was thinking along the lines of a hammer not a pen. It took a little while before I could say thank you and I could tell that my reaction to it just crushed my wife that is something that I'm very sorry about. She told me how she had the hardest time thinking of anything to get for me and how a someone tolled her about this pen and how she knew that I liked pens so she thought it would be a perfect gift for me and she was right. This pen is simply amazing it is called the Fisher space pen and can do the most amazing things like wright in zero gravity, under water, and at any angle they are the official pen that NASA uses in space. So you can imagine that a pen like that would be expensive the one my wife got for me was 30 dollars and there are ones that go for more than 150 dollars. Well about three+ months ago it disappeared and I could not find it anywhere and the last place I remember putting it was in my pant pocket. Well just today it was found stuck in the drain pipe for the washer. Need less to say it was very badly beat up, the outer case is all dented and crushed in places and the cap has a hole caused by rust right were the tip is. What is truly amazing is the after three+ months of being stuck in the drain pipe it still works it is nothing to look at but it still works. However, I'm very upset that I was so care less with it and that it ended up all mangled. I intend to keep it as a reminder to me to always treat those things that I value most in my life like my family and especially my wife differently from ordinary things.

Games

My time off has been very nice my wife and I have been trying to finish a PlayStation game called kingdom hearts it is a combination between Final Fantasy and Walt Disney. It is very fun but in order to see all of the secret videos when you finish the game it requires you to complete a lot of Minny games and side quest. That is what we are trying to do and all we have left is one boss fight against Sephiroth the hardest person to defeat in the game even more difficult than the end boss.

The main character is Sora and through out the game he is accompanied by Donald and Goofy in almost everything there are a couple of times that you are left alone to fight. If you would like to see the end of the game you can see it here the first part is the secret part for the first game called deep dive, and the next one is for the second one. hope you enjoy them

It is over!!!!!.......

A lot has happened to me over the past few weeks and I'm still not that very good about blogging I hope to get better as time goes on. Well if you asked me how I feel about the whole thing it would be very hard to sum it up. First I'm relieved that it is over now I do not feel like I'm sitting around letting the world pass me by or, stuck on a sinking ship that keeps on dragging me down with it. Second I'm a Little sad that I'm leaving all of my friends and going on to other things. Third I'm scared to start something new and not having that feeling of regularity in my life. I hope that collage will help me get into something that i relay like and enjoy. Now is the time to start moving forward and maybe glancing back to remember the good times. Like being in Mexico with friends and all of my friends from second shift I hope that they will find there path in life. Forth I'm excited to be moving on with my education and being with my family. We have already done some very fun things, for example we purchased a bike trailer and have had some real fun biking around. My wife has signed up for a swim class with my d.d. they are so very cute swimming around. To top it off we are planning on going camping some time this summer so we will be ready for school this fall.

A Break

Well I was given a very good gift from my boss just befor I came home this last time. That was to say that our groop did not half to come back to mexico for two weeks the best thing about that is if we go back down I will only have two week left untill my end date. However, He did say that if I could call him and tell him that im not going back and he wold take care of it. There reason for doing this is becous there upper managment beleves that they no longer need the support team around and that we are just in the way. So to test it and see how things will run without the support they decided to let us have a break. What is realy funny is that they have not ben able to run everything at top preformance and in fact there reject rate is sky high. Not to mention that not all the processes have been validated for production and there is no more inventory left. That means that as of now they are about 3 if not 4 weeks behind on most of there production durring there busiest time of the year. Oh well it's not my job to worry about it. :)

On that note im very ecited to be home with my girls and i have been loveing every minute of it. My wife and I broke down and got an eight person tent for camping so we are all ready for our vaction this summer. I hope that the girls will be ok this will be there first time sleeping in a tent and everything so it might not be as smooth as we are hopping. It still sound like fun.

Viva Mexico

Oh boy that about sumes it up, this trip marks the first time that I was relied on as a one of the two drivers for the group. They did not wast time breaking me in on the first day where I had to take over and lead driver in our carivan(oh boy)we had to follow a true Mexican driver in to the heart of downtown Nogales. In Mexico the streat are very tinny but that will not slow down the drivers and the people who walk arround do not wait for cars to stop suprisingly they do not have that many accadents. However, on the bright side we got to enjoy some true Mexican shopping all you half to do is show your intrested in the item and then the fun begins. Step two is to ask the price and never never never say ok and take the price. All you half to do is say too much and walk away do not worry they will not let a sail go they will follow you and make a better offer. It has been realy fun to barter down the price of things and get a good deal on suverners. How ever the only suviner that I want is a magnet that has Mexico printed on it I have yet to find such a magnet. In fact I was toled that magnets were not in season right now, I almost laughed and said when is the season for magnets. :) There is one thing that I do want to get for my girls that would be a littel gutair with real gutair strings and painted pink. They are so cute and I know that my girls would love to have them so we will see if I can get a good deal on them.

On our weekends in Tuscon my groupe usualy will go and do landury eat and suprise suprise go shoping. It is reducluse how much these wemen will spend they were all burdend down with so much stuff (that they bought in Mexico and Tuscon) that they decided to ship it home. There shoping in Mexico saved them a lot of money and there are very happy about that however, it cost one person 190.00 to send it all home and another only 40. So lesson is, not to purchase more that you heve room for in your luggage.

Now about Tuscon, it hase verey thing and anything you could posably want the downside is that the city is very spred out it could take up to 30 minuets ot get from your house to the store you want. But it dose have some cool attractions one I realy want to go to is call the PIMA air space musiem. There is the largest missel cylo called Titan Missile museum, and the air feild were they store all the plains awating repair called amarc( Aerospace Maintenance and regeneration Center. You get a gided toure of all of this for 25 dollars which is very good concidering the massive size of the musiem, In fact it is the third largest museum in the usa, and the feild where they store the plains is redcoulsely huge it takes 15 miniutes to drive arround it going about 40 mph and that is just one side. There is also a cave that sounds like it would be alot of fun to go and see.

All and all if I cut out the work part of my trips my wife would be right it is a vaction. How every work is trying to mess over as many people as they can by shorting everyones hours. That is one thing that I do not understand, Terry (my lead) had kept a very good writen record of everyones hours in fact they have started maken her type it up in excell. Even with that they will still not pay for everyones hours that they put in working at the plant. I can understand not paying us if were did not work but those were acutaly worked hours that they cut. One of the reasons I came down to Mexico was for all the extra over time which im not getting becouse im the only one who stays on nights. How ever that has changed now that Jason wants to go to nights to avoid the drama that is going on during the day shift.

whell more latter

WOW

Well where should I begin. How about the airport yea thats sound good the airport. It started out ok we arived at the airport an hour befor my flight was schuled to depart. After the bags were checked in I walked with my eldist arround the airport in about a minute we were back were we started. :) Got to love small airports no big lines and they let your family wate by the gate untill you half to bord. Littel did I know that my hardest thing about this job would be happing when I tried to leave. As I approched the gate my eldist d.d. began to screem "I want to go with dady on a air plain!" of corse hearing her scream that it broke my heart. Looking back at my wife holding bolth of my d.d. (all of them ether crying or close to it) I realy began to wonder if this job was worth it(it's not by the way). But it was a littel to late to back out now, so I had to do the hardest thing that I have ever done in my life up to that point and that was to walk away. Six o'clock roles arround and I find myself in Tuscon, AZ in a very nice hotel called the Amerasuites.

Traviling in Mexico, I do not recomend it ever I would gladly drive in Utah Tuscon anyday over Mexico. There left turn lane is in a crazy spot(numbering the lains going from right to left)lain 1 is the right turn or stright lane, lain 2 is the Left turn lain and lains 3 & 4 are stright only lains. On top of that there is a unspoken rule once the light turns green you better be half way through the intersection, or there will be some angry people and there not afraid to honk there horns and yell to let you know it I gess there trying to compete with Utah drivers :).

Some of the fun things that I have gone and done in Tuson, are going to see the Xasiver Mission, the one that has been in a lot of western movies. Aloung with all the shopping ther is a lot of thing to do however, everything cost so much that it is hard to afford to do anything. There is always relaxing by the pool all day and reading a book.

I had one major highlight that was when I came home yea.

I Rule Mars

You Should Rule Mars

Mars is a planet that shines brightly and loops wildly around the solar system.

You are perfect to rule Mars, because you are both energetic and independent.
Like Mars, you seems attractive and bright to others - but you're difficult to pin down.

You are a great thinker, but you only think in the present and ignore the future.
Full of enthusiasm and inspiration, you are into your own thing... and rather insensitive to others.

Having Fun

In case you were wondering about the new pictures that are on my blog, let me tell you a littel about them. A few posts back I put up some links to some movies that are coming out this summer. Well I have this fascination with Transformers ever since I was young and I loved this cartoon show. My absolute favorite character from this show is the leader of the Autobots(the good guys), his name is Optimus Prime. The top picture is what he will look like in the new movie he looks cool however, I personally like the way he looked when I was younger. O well, I still will go see the movie even though they changed the way he looks. The Next picture is what he looked like back in the old days. In the bottem picture Optimus Prime is carring the leader of the female autobots Elita One.

Bittersweet End

Today was the last day that my job was open which meant that there were a lot of people that I had to say goodbye to and would probably hardly ever or never see again. On top of that, over the last few months I have watched several close coworkers (whom I have worked with for over a year and four months) reach their end date and move on with life. Everyone that I watched leave has caused me to regret my decision to go to Mexico but not a much as today. I based my decision partly on the fact that there would be someone whom I was already familiar with, that was going to go to Mexico with me. Plus I could use the extra money as well as a vacation :-D. However, he backed out at the last minute and finished today instead. I understand why he did what he did but it still makes it very hard for me to want to go. So I will be in Mexico training the new employees on how to run the machines until the end of June, when I reach my end date. I will be going down on the 8th of April and will be gone for 3 weeks. Then I come home for two days and then go back down for another two weeks. They have told me that we probably will be done training in Mexico before June, so that is something to look forward to. I really hope that they are right because I will not go beyond June for anything. I guess what it really comes down to, is that I feel like this company has wasted five plus years of my life and they continue to want more. I however, have plans for my life. I want to be a geoscientist and graduate collage with a doctorate degree. So I will press on and not get down on the fact that everyone must at some time, move on in there life. But it is sad to see good friends go, and to all my friends from work who read this, I wish you all the best of luck in everything that you do. Keep in touch.

Summer

This summer is going to be great! On top of no work past June there is four movies that I cant wait to see. First is Spiderman3, Second is Fantastic 4, Third is Transformers, Four Harry potter and the order of the phoenix. You can view the trailers by clicking the title of the movie Spiderman3 gives you two different trailers to look at while the others will take you directly to the preview. This summer looks like it's going to be a big movie summer. I'm more excited about the first three though.

Frustrating Day

I had a very frustrating day I was pushed to my limit and I'm still to upset to talk about it. However on a good note on my way home from work an idea popped into my head so I gave it a try. You may have noticed my music has changed a little, well my inspiration was to go on line and find songs that I enjoyed when times were not a frustrating. This brought back so many good memories that I think I have found my way to unwind when times get too much. So some of the fruits of my unwinding can be heard right hear. How ever I still like "How to save a life" by The Fray as the theme of my blog what can I say it fits some how (I wish it was "in over my head" by The Fray but the site where my music codes comes from does not have it yet) so you will need to skip to the next one to listen to them. Ahhh the power of music maybe it will brighten you day as it did mine. So just relax and close your eyes and listen to the rhythm (you do not half to listen to the words just the instruments) and let your mind wonder to calmer days. Before you know it you will be smiling and enjoying your day better. Just for fun can you recall the artist's and song's name? ;-)

I WON

Yesterday when we were at Wal-mart my d.d. wanted to go to the play room so we did. However she was to scared to ride on any of the rides so we found a crane game with stuffed animal. So I tried to get a prize. On the first try I almost won a white stuffed bear but at the last second it fell down half hanging over the prize shoot. Of course I could not give up with my prize so close to falling into the shoot. So I tried one more time and lo and behold not only one prize but two This was the first time that I have ever won from this type of game and on top of that I got two prizes! Then latter that day at work I found out that I had won the prize drawing they were having. What a day.

Grrr

I have had my first grrr moment with my laptop. For back ground I purchased it from my work through a raffle auction for 10 dollars. Its a pentium II and slow but on top of that the battier only last 2 hours at the most so I half to have it plugged in all the time or it will shut off for no reason. well this afternoon I had a very long post I was typing and I didn't notice that the power cord was not fully attached. Well my d.d. were playing their favorite game which is dad just sat down must do something to get him up. Well I had just finished with the latest round and sat back down to finish typing my post when my computer shut down erasing the post :-0. When I brought it back up to see if it saved where I was at only to find it erased and gone forever :-(. Talk about discouraging it took me all evening to wright something and why not about this. O well better luck next time i guess.

Why?

Have you ever wondered why any potato chip company prints the price of a bag of chips directly on the bag, Just to sell it for a dollar less. If they are only going to sell it for a dollar less than the printed price why not just print that price?

The Beginning

I've never done anything like this so we will see how it goes. To start out with I'm Rich this is my blog over there is nothing (yet) sorry until I understand this stuff better it will remain nothing. I have two d.d. and a very loving d.w. On top of that I will be spending the next three months in Mexico helping my work transfer my job down their. Fun fun my d.w. refers to it as I'm going on vacation which It's not. O well we will see if I like it or not. After this I will be unemployed and focusing on getting my degree in geology. This is a little about me.
