Darron Daily - 2012
2012.11.10 (Saturday)
Got up early, tried to reproduce last nights photo results using the same images and software but could not. Downloaded Photomatrix Pro, it seems to give consistent results with some nice starting points. I'm not ready to plop down $100 for photo software so I'll do what I can with the free software for now.
Moved on to the WiFi project of the weekend. Flashed two ASUS RT-N16 routers with DD-WRT and set them up in bridge mode. I still need to build one more waveguide antenna. (Gotta get another can of chili from the store)
Watched the Hulk with Robin and Peyton, then we took the kids out front to get their wiggles out before dinner. I took the tripod and the camera and grabbed some bracketed shots of our street. Dropped them into the trial HDR software and this is what I ended up with.
Dinner was great, Kayla led the dinner prayer, Korbin joined in as always! :) Have a good evening.

![2012.10.30 (Tuesday) - “For which of you, intending to build a tower, sits not down first, and counts the cost, whether he has sufficient to finish it?” (Luke 14:28).<br />
<br />
So, did God begin his creation without thinking it through all the way? [NO] If christendom is correct, he created the universe knowing that the vast majority of the children that he loves would not only be lost, but suffer for the remainder of eternity! Good thing christendom is wrong! If religion is correct, God would be far more foolish than someone who starts a puzzle (Robin) knowing that the grandchildren are going to lose a good number of pieces and the puzzle will never be complete! :) [You know it's true sweetie!]<br />
<br />
So, my day: I got in to work at 6 AM so that I could take off early and sign paperwork for the new job but God had other plans. The day went okay, I've been swimming in Java and getting familiar with Eclipse for too long, can't wait for the new gig.<br />
<br />
Since I was off early and my appointment was rescheduled to Thursday, I called Leroy to see if he still needed help with his computer, he did. He told me to let myself in, he was giving blood and would be there in 20. The dogs didn't eat me for dinner, but for about 2 seconds there I thought I was a gonner. I fixed the computer again and we spent an hour and half talking about God (my favorite subject) and religion. (my least favorite subject) I gave him some verses that support the fact that, through Christ, all will be saved. He seems interested but cautious. After all, if it sounds too good to be true, it probably isn't true, right? God couldn't possibly be big enough to save all mankind, religion tells us so! (Even though he wills (or wishes) that this happen. (1 Timothy 2:4) )<br />
<br />
Caution is good, open mindedness and an eagerness to check things out to see if they are true is even better. I hope God gives him a nudge so he will look into it to see if it is so. <br />
<br />
Got home, watched about 20 mins of TV, then had a gourmet chili cheese dog dinner. The cheesedog pic lost out to the puzzle pic I took on my lunch break after I read today's daily email goodie from Clyde Pilkington. I'll sign off now, going to go spend a nice evening with my sweetie, my daughter, and the gKids.<br />
<br />
God bless all,<br />
