Life of a Web Programmer

While sitting around at the AUS terminal, waiting to board my flight to see Catherine, I remembered a great YouTube video I was introduced to while at work this summer. If you don’t know what Ventrilo harassment is, it’s basically when someone enters a voice chatroom and plays a soundboard that can be really hilarious to those watching it unfold, but painfully annoying to those in the chatroom.

The title of this post has become a staple of my random outburst while playing CoDMW2, along with the famous saying by Congresswoman, Corrine Brown, “Go gata…” Below is the Ventrilo harassment video montage that has capture the hearts and souls of those fortune to hear its prophetic message…enjoy!

A young man became an unfortunate victim of larceny. His Xbox 360 had been stolen by a careless robber who fortunately didn’t know that the Internet is a series of tubes. Using his smarts and intellect, he tracked his Gamertag via the Xbox website and figured out the IP address in which his Xbox 360 had been connected to Xbox Live.

This reminds me of the time my iPod was stolen, and I did everything I could to track the perp who was benefiting from a 60GB iPod. Needless to say, I didn’t find my iPod, and I learned to lock my bedroom door when throwing house parties.

The Pantless Knights ft. PC-Pain spoof the Lonely Island / SNL skit “I’m on a Boat”, with their Mac fanboy’s anthem, “I’m on a Mac.”

Very funny and very true…hits a heart string with my Mac loving self.

Just saw an awesome video on YouTube this morning via digg.com and it made me think about how awesome the love and compassion this kid has for his parents. He was so thankful for what his parents (although I know the dad would benefit from this gift, too) got him for his birthday. According to the video description, the kid has been through a lot, being in and out of the hospital.

Today, I’ll be returning back to Austin after a wonderful holiday break with the family. We had a blast, watching some interesting choices in movies for the Christmas holidays (Inglourious Basterds, Terminator: Salvation, Saw, Saw II, and Saw III). Mom, Dad, and I are currently enjoying some Texans football, they are in desperate need of a win here to have any chance to make it to the playoffs.

I’ll be leaving Tuesday to see my sweetheart, and I can’t wait to see her!!! She has lots in store for me, hopefully I can keep up LOL.

Aight, time to watch some Texans…have a great Sunday everyone!!!

Well…here we go. This will be my first post to this blog. I have lots in store for the future of this site, and I plan to keep y’all (Texas accent) up to date with all that is Josh Dale. Let me know if there’s anything I can do to keep this site fresh and new, and hopefully I can give y’all some insight on all things techy.

Please feel free to check out the site. As stated above, I will be keeping you up to date with tech news, gaming, sports, and random wtf??? I’ve been home for the holidays and just setup wireless internet for mom and dad (finally LOL). I’ve been enjoying some live streams of MW2 and machinima posts on YouTube.

Next week, I’ll be seeing my Catherine up in Idaho. It will be the first time I’ve seen snow in like three or four years and my first time to ski…going to be a blast!!!
