It has been quite some time since I have graced the internet with my presence, but against all odds I am here again. So what has been going on with me you ask? Jack and Shit. And Jack has left town. So with nothing of great personal interest going on I have to resort to technology and literature.
On the technology side I have been crazy about the Linux. In the past few months I have run no fewer than 6 Linux distributions on my desktop. Between Fedora, OpenSUSE and the Ubuntus, I have been quite busy. I am sure that most of those that possibly read this blog are going "What the hell is Enfuego talking about?", there are a few of you that at the very least have a clue of what I speak.(Mainly I am talking to you Vanberge) In the short time that I have been involved with Linux I have begun to develop a sense of what I like and what I do not. So far I like Ubuntu and its "out of the box" functionality. I like Fedora's look and some of its feature set. OpenSUSE has a very polished look and feel to it, however it requires (In my case) too much configuration to be made usable. So as it stands I am back to Ubuntu and its overall usability. Hopefully it will become even better looking when the new version comes out in a few weeks. Mainly I hope that they incorporate the latest version of Gnome.
As far as literature goes I have been addicted to a particular book, Lamb: The Gospel According to Biff Christ's Childhood Pal. If you have not read or have never heard of it, I heartily suggest that you get off your ass and pick it up. I have never been moved to tears by a book before, though I must say that they were tears of laughter. The brilliance of this book goes far beyond the title, as great as it is. It is irreverent, smart and mostly it is engaging in it's ability to really take the story of Jesus in a new direction. So if there are any heretics out there that read my blog and take my sinful words to heart, go out there and pick up the book and I hope that you get as much enjoyment out of it as I did.
