I wonder if it is time to get a new look on my ol’ blog here… perhaps that’d entice me to update it more frequently. I’ll admit, I thought it rocked when I first got started, but it has lost that charm it once had. I think I’ll begin working on something new in my spare time and try to update this more often.

I need to post more in here… time to blow off some of the dust.
So, what has been keeping me busy? Well, earlier this year I finished my new “food blog” which I talked about here. It’s really great… I’m spending 90% of my time over there, so please go check it out:
Food Geekery: Real Food. Real Geek.
I even gave it its own Facebook fan page (go be a fan… I’d appreciate it):
So what does this mean for FlishFun.com? Nothing. Don’t worry, I’ll still be around to postmy randomness… more updates will be on the food side of things (as it is my new hobby), but I still need a place to put my political, technical and other random posts, so don’t you worry. Just be sure to head over to Food Geekery and look around the place!
+ We love the new Wii update!! By Jason 26 March 2009 at 6:57 am 5,519 views No Comments
Today I awoke to find out that Nintendo has finally given me one of the two things I have been waiting for. Now you can finally play your downloaded games from your SD Card. No longer do you have to use up all of your system memory! Joy of joys!
“Welcome to the SD Card Menu! Here, you can launch channels saved on SD Cards by temporarily utilizing the Wii System Memory.” CONFIRMED. That’s right, launch from SD.
If your system memory is full, you still have to delete stuff, but there’s now a streamlined, automated process to do that from this new SD Card Menu. It will even choose stuff for you, if you want.
Update: The new Wii system update also adds support for SDHC cards up to 32 GB — that’s alotta Virtual Console games folks!
Read more here: Wii System Menu 4.0 and here: Wii Shop Channel’s SD Card Menu
Now all we need is a DVD Channel and I’ll be set for life… well, that and perhaps a new WiiHD or some such. Excellent news! Tonight I shall be doing some needed spring cleaning of my System Memory.
+ Has it really been two months? By Jason 05 February 2009 at 12:51 pm 3,032 views No Comments
Wow… has it really almost been two months since my last Blog post? Yikes… I need to keep more up to date on these things! Things have been quite busy over the past two months, such as:
- I went to Florida to visit my family for 2 weeks.
- I started studying for my next certification (if all goes well, I’ll take the Security+ exam this month).
- I’ve suddenly been swamped with outside contracting work so I’m out of the house more.
- I’ve joined a gym (holy crap! Who’d have thought I’d ever do that?!).
- I’ve begun cooking even more than before, so I may need to put a PC in the kitchen here soon.
See, so I have plenty of excuses to not have posted anything for awhile. Oh yeah, did I mention we officially have a new President? Man… last time I posted we still had Ol’ Whatshisface in office. As I mentioned, I have started cooking a lot more than before, so as I spoke about in my last post, I am working on a new “food blog” for me to share recipes, review shows/foods/restaurants and all those type things as I continue down this new path I seem to making towards becoming a true “foodie” (scary, I know). Once this goes live I’ll both mention it here and most likely cross-post when things intersect (as I’m sure they will).
Well, that’s all for now… Valentine’s Day is coming up, so between that and my exam I may be kind of silent again, but I hope to be back blogging away here soon! Oh yeah, and since I failed to mention it before, I’ve upgraded to WordPress 2.7 “Coltrane” (Final), and it works just awesomely!
+ Still alive! By Jason 09 December 2008 at 6:51 am 3,219 views 1 Comment
I’m still alive, just busy is all. It’s that time of year when Jess is working 80 hour weeks (no exaggeration) so I’m staying pretty busy just trying to cook/clean/work/etc while she’s gone. One of the big things I’ve been spending my time doing is cooking/baking and I was thinking about making a second blog… this one being normal, and the other a “food blog” of sorts. I figure it will be used to share recipes, talk about whatever cooking shows/tips/etc I come across, restaurant reviews, and other stuff like that. I’ve begun designing it in the little spare time I have:

I don’t think it’s that bad for a start. My goal is to launch it in early January and see where it goes from there. Also, on that same note, I think I’ll update this site design a little bit. I liked it at first, but I really am thinking it needs a slight overhaul. We’ll see if/when I find the time to do that. Busy, busy, busy!
Oh, and on a completely different subject, this blog is now running WordPress 2.7 RC1! There are some slight visual changes between the beta and the release candidate, but I like ‘em! Go check it out for yourself!!
