yet again, have not been on in a long long while. It appeared my password was no longer working either. Makes me wonder if someone actually was able to hack in ? maybe. Or maybe I just forgot which password I was using i.e. "GOD" or a more common expletive I used back in elementary school. Weird thing is for some reason before college, all my passwords consisted of sh*t and f*ck, and the more interesting thing is my brother did the same. Suffice it to say that I was able to guess some of his passwords when I tried to access his compy. AIite
happy Turkey day. enjoy!

Been a long time: I am on !

R.I.P. Skybus

Sat, 05 Apr 2008 01:44:27 GMT

Bye Bye Skybus. your crappy uncomfortable yet Cheap fares will be somewhat missed. I flew you only once.

Skybus Announcement

Skybus Airlines will cease all operations effective Saturday, April 5.

Skybus struggled to overcome the combination of rising jet fuel costs and a slowing economic environment. These two issues proved to be insurmountable for a new carrier.

We deeply regret the impact this decision will have on our employees and their families, customers, vendors, suppliers, airport officials and others in the cities in which we have operated. Our financial condition is such that our Board of Directors felt it had no choice but to cease operations.

Passengers holding reservations for Skybus flights scheduled to depart on or after Saturday, April 5, 2008 should contact their credit card companies to arrange to apply for a refund. More information for customers and others will be made available on the Skybus web site (www.skybus.com) as it becomes available.

All flights for Friday, April 4 will be completed. Passengers holding reservations on flights for Friday, April 4 should check in for their flight at a Skybus kiosk at the airport instead of the Skybus website.

X-mas time is a coming

Wed, 12 Dec 2007 23:02:53 GMT

It's been about a month or so (i think) and I guess it is time for an entry. This past week I have been doing nights on OB, where I actually got to deliver my first squirmy little critter, aka a human baby (once a fetus). That was pretty exciting. I would post some pictures, but I think that would be some sort of hippa violation. Then again all babies look alike. Eitherway I will just leave the picture off. As for some other stories, I guess in the name of HIPPA (for those that are wondering what that is, it is some sort of law stating that patients have a right to privacy of their medical info, so we can not talk about these patients etc etc) I will just move on and say, babies are cute. they get annoying when they cry. but if you ever get a chance to deliver one, it is definitely someting you will never forget.

So I am stuck here at the hospital this whole week for my "Night Call" and no I am not prostituting myself out, well maybe I am. It's interesting to see what people are up in the middle of the night, and what problems they may have or think they have. Alas, I will be here until about 8-9am

So my wife is super awesome (not something you expect me to say eh?) and we did some early xmas gift exchanging. It's kinda sad since I am on night calls, and she goes to work early and come back late, we never see eachother. She is gone by 540am, and I get back at 9am. I leave at 4pm, and she gets back at 6-7pm. So I guess it will be a few more days before I get to see her. I digress, she got me an awesome Jacket from Express so I can be styling like Mr. D chang, and two books. I am Legend by Richard Matheson, and Next by Michael Crichton. I've been waiting to get this Chrichton book to go on paperback, since I hate hardcovers. As for I am legend, it's the movie that Will Smith will be in opening... now? few days? soon or something. The previews seemed interesting, so I decided to go google it and see what it was about. It was apparently remake and based on the book mentioned above. Unfortunately I read the synopsis, and ruined the surprise, but it definitely is a surprise. I must finish the book before I see this movie, because the premis is just so awesome to me, I wish I thought of it and wrote the book myself.

I will write a whle synopsis for ya'll and ruin it for you as soon as I am done. Or not. Back to it.

Outtie like a belly button.

Water Pollution

Fri, 16 Nov 2007 02:27:54 GMT

I am talkin about those bastards at Honda trying to pollute the world with more water vapors!
check out there new Honda FCX
They think by slapping a fuel cell in a car, they can save the world, and deprive us all from our precious gasoline!

I guess it doenst look so bad...

And they actually expect us to install these home fueling stations in our homes... How do they expect me to get my occasional donut, and slushie from the gas station if I dont have to go in?

But really, I wonder if I should have stayed in the Materials Engineering field now. Honda is finally advertising their fuel cell vehicle, and they are going to have special trials out in SoCal. I've hear many people say that fuel cell are the wave of the future, but that people have been saying that since the early-mid 1800s. They've been trying to figure out a way to make it more efficient and reliable. I've also heard people say that fuel cells will never work. I did my Masters thesis on Fuel Cells, and worked at honda for a little bit... so I guess if this field does take off, I could try to get back into the fuel cell game (with my D.O. degree of course) and save the world of green house gases!
Meh, i guess if the world of medicine ever boggs me down, I still have a backup

Cant wait to see more fuel cells one day... good bye rotary engine.

Does anyone want to have a cute furry companion for a few days during the X-mas holidays this season? Combo is looking for someone to celebrate the holidays with this season, since yunsheng and I and my family will be in California from the 24-27.

If I cant find anyone suitable I will have to take her to the Pet Palace, which is rather amazing actually, but freaking expensive! http://www.petpalaceresort.com
