It's PARTY TIME at
Alan Porter's minimal net presence





2008-10-09 - Walt Disney World
We packed up the Family Truckster and headed to Florida for a week in Wally World. We had a Fantasmic time!

2008-10-02 - USS Intrepid
I went with my dad to the re-docking of the USS Intrepid in New York. Former crewmembers rode on the ship, while a parade followed them to Pier 86. Dad served from 1957 to 1959.

2008-09-20 - Alan turns Forty
The world celebrates having Alan around for four decades.

2008-06-01 - Foong's Broken Leg
Foong broke her leg while riding a bicycle, so we spent the next several weeks recovering.

2008-03-21 - 500 Caches in 500 Days
I found 500 geocaches in just under 500 days.

2008-03-13 - TriLUG Steering Committee
I was elected to the Triangle Linux Users Group steering committee.

2007-10-03 - Our Trip to China
In October, we visited Beijing, Shanghai and Hong Kong.

2007-08-25 - New (old) WaveRunner
By being at the right place at the right time, I became the proud owner of a 1993 Yamaha WaveRunner (yes, it still runs). This is one of the two happiest days in a boat owner's life.

2006-11-30 - New job at Tekelec
With the success of the TMIO oven project behind me, it was time to find a new technical challenge. Tekelec has some really fast networking gear that needs some Linux TLC.

2006-11-11 - Geocaching
My two girls and I found our first Geocache. Momma came along for our second one.

2006-09-30 - Private Pilot's Certificate
After a year of lessons, I passed my private pilot "check ride". Now I can travel to any public airport in the country, daytime or night, and I can carry passengers. Who wants to go for a ride?
