An Insolent Southern Man

First of all, I hope everyone had a good Christmas. I know I did. Second, we got a new griddle, but I didn't make French toast over the weekend when it snowed. (If that doesn't make any sense, then you need to go back and read here.)

Wednesday night, I went to a little pizza place called Your Pie for the Athens Holiday Tweetup. A tweetup is where people from Twitter meet up in real life.

So anyway, we met at Your Pie in the Five Points area of Athens. It was quite a cozy little place and there were about 15 or 20 "tweeps" there. Your Pie provided us with some awesome pizza. I highly recommend you visit any one of their 3 locations in Athens.

I could kick myself for not taking any photos. I guess I was having such a good time talking to people that I forgot.

I really had a blast meeting and talking to new people that I've only interacted with over Twitter before. I thought it was a great experience and I highly recommend that, if you're on Twitter, that you get out to one of these events. If you do, I'll likely see you there. =D

Oh, I almost forgot... Follow @AthensTweetup to find out when the next meetup is!

I've always been a bit savvy when it came to computers. No, I'm not on the programmer or developer level, but I'd say a decent user - more or less. I wouldn't call myself a complete computer geek. I'm not ready to join the Geek Squad at my local Best Buy store. But ever since I broke my leg, I've been stumbling around, messing with my computers more and more. At first, it was a tweak here and there in Windows Vista. Next came the upgrade to Windows 7. After that, I got more and more interested in making a dual boot computer. I've seen several blogs online about making what's known as a "hackintosh," but after further reading, realized that neither of my machines here at the house could be configured to run OSX. Boo. :-(
