Two events today:

Manned the greyhound table down at the petsmart on 104th and I25 for Colorado Greyhound Companions It was a nice time as usual. Took all 3 hounds, and they all had a good time. Twyla was her typical flirtatious self (leaning on people, trying to follow people off who petted her, etc). Kurt was typically lazy (laying down on the hard cold floor since I forgot to bring a blanket for him). Merlin was a bit reserved, but still friendly. Passed out a bunch of brochures. Hopefully it will result in some new foster homes. The group really needs foster homes bad right now. We saw our friend Jackson the great dane, and talked a bunch with the neutro lady at the next table over. It was a nice time.

After I got back from the petsmart I gave the dogs a treat and headed over to the Clue North Linux installfest. It was over at the devry campus about 2 miles from my house, so it was really close and easy to get to. Found the room after some wandering around (they had some big conference blocking off some of the doors, so it wasn't obvious how to get into the room where the installfest was being held. Finally got in there and there were lots of people already deep in installs and such. Dived right in. The first about 30min were pretty zippy with questions and problems coming from all sides. Then it settled down some. Taught someone about iptables and firewalling and looked at their shorewall setup. Tried to help someone else install on a machine with limited space and tons of partitions. Finally got them mostly set. Answered various other random questions. It was fun. I wish I could have been there all day to help out... they had a really nice turnout.
