The Tech Guy -- Ressurrected

The Tech Guy started out as my first venture into my own PC Repair company. After a couple of disappointments, mainly from non-paying customers, I decided to put it on hold. Well now is the prime time to resurrect my baby. Starting next Monday, The Tech Guy is officially re-open for business. Armed with a brand-new tool set, new knowledge, and new software, I am prepared to handle any home or office worst-case scenario. A new website and new Craigslist ads will be up and functional soon.

I wanted to state that I use only open-source software, unless it is unavoidable to do otherwise. Open-source software is software whose source code is freely distributed and it is encouraged to change, modify, and distribute this code. Open-source is the future of software, and The Tech Guy is at the forefront of this revolution.

Genetic Noah's Ark

Hey everyone,

I just wanted to officially announce my first 3D short film entitled "Genetic Noah's Ark."

Genetic Noah's Ark is a film describing how genetic material from a dying Mars was automatically placed into a preservation pod and transported to Earth where it took hold in primordial oceans and evolved into the species we know now.

The animation will be edited using completely open-source software including: Blender 3D, The GIMP, and Avid.

The animation has moved past the pre-production stage and the modeling stage and is currently in the animation process.

I'll try to upload some stills as soon as I can.

On a side note, soon I'll be uploading some of my best 3D artwork for the world to see here in my album. I just wanted to let you know in advance.

Poverty Displayed

Hey all,

Your actions describe who you truly are. If you behave in an upper-class manner people around you will assume you are upper class. If you behave like an uneducated city dweller living in poverty, you will be treated as such. Wanna stop being poor? Sop acting like it!

Today, in the alley behind CVS parking lot, a former store called ATN Fashions began handing clothing out to a crowd of poor people. What's the problem with this? Allow me to elaborate.

ATN Fashions was closed recently due to a fire in the store. The building is now condemned and is weeks away from demolition. The building's storage areas were flooded with rain water and several dead animals were found in the building. Now think about this for a moment. Clothes that were stored in a fire damaged building and soaked with rainwater and plagued by mold are being handed out to poor citizens. Are the people of ATN Fashions trying to help residents, or kill them?

Every single person that showed up to this sickening display of poverty was exactly that; poor. Maybe not of money, but of spirit and will. I have seen some of those same people wearing the latest in hip-hop fashions and shoes. They make themselves out to be such big shots. But when something is being handed out free, they turn into ravenous vulchers.

So much for Hamtramck. I say the city has dug its grave and is simply awaiting for more events like this to finally bury it.
