The Country of Sicily

Pretty sure Sicily was not a country in 1997 when my grandfather's death certificate was filled out at Millard Fillmore.

100 years of farmers - geneology stevanato

I was going through a lot of the family documents I scanned while Nonna was alive.

I found this one document that maps a hundred years of Nonna's lineage issued back in 1941. It goes back even further though.

At the top it says, "Dai Registri Parrocchiali esistenti in questo Archivio, risulta la seguente discendenza ultracentenaria della famiglia di agricoltori." Which according to google means, "the parish registers exist in this archive is the following hundred years, descendants of the family of farmers"

Its neat to find out their names.
Grandfather: Giorgio Armenia (07/04/1915)
Grandmother: Pierina Stevanto (06/29/1915)
married 01/31/1948

Great Grandfather: Fortunato Stevanto (06/14/1878)
Great Grandmother: Teodolina Rizzato

Great, Great Grandfather: Antonio Stevanato (02/08/1850)

Great, Great, Great, Great, Great Grandfather: Pasqualin Stevanato (05/08/1789)
Great, Great, Great, Great, Great Grandmother: Girolima Salviato OR Salviato Girolima. Its weird because the other names on the document are lastname, first but salviato doesn't sound like a woman's name.

Basra's first day outside 2011

This was his first day outside. Its weird, this morning I brought him in grass and plants from outside to eat and he barely touched them but as soon as he got outside he chowed down for like 3 hours.

stripping...

...wire is really time consuming. I think it is left best as a third world enterprise.

I had all this wire I ripped off the house after moving the server.

I spent several hours, got about 1/10th of the way through the wire pile and ended up with like 1lb of copper which is worth about $4.50 on the open market.

Luckily, Its projected to go up 2 cents over the next two months. In the meantime I am going to make myself the largest copper ball ever.

Rice bowl and crunch bang

(e:tinypliny) and I made yummy rice bowls and played with crunch bang Linux. She just left now after we talked about my work projects, genetics, the history of Hinduism, the war between China and India, ghandi, mother Theresa. Harold Krishna's, the Ainu people of Japan, Muslims, early American slave diets, Marco Polo and the server.

This is crunchbang linux, (e:tinypliny) loves it.

Server in a new home

The tortoise room closet was just too warm so the server has moved to the dungeon. Its a little bit dank but dry and cold. Considering the ld server survived the artvoice basement's water and plague of bugs that lived in it, I don't have much fear.
