Works great!

Got my speedometer cable in the mail today! Well, yesterday actually. We're kinda bad at checking our mail box. But I installed it on the bike and it seems to be working Great!! I had to return a Wii video game to block buster, so I had a good 10-26 miles round trip to try it out. Passed a few cops and they didn't pull me over goin' what my bike claimed to be 4 or so over... so It's either accurate or fast. Either way it feels greatly reassuring to know how fast I'm going. Now I need to get used to the variables of driving a motorcycle and I wont have to look down to check my speed. It'll become an extension of myself! Connected, One with the Suzuki! haha

On another note. I have finally discovered a starting point to my computer programming career. It all starts with video games. At least it looks like it may for me.. I found a cool website called XNA. It's controlled by Microsoft, but it will allow me to learn one of the many programming languages and get jump started with knowledge! If nothing else I can make some cheap silly games to sell for a dollar on the iPhone. My dad might buy one :P It's the simple games that can be played in the little spare time between meetings and other business that he's generally interested. They really are fun though... I am pretty excited. Hopefully I actually learn something useful and I'm not wasting more time.
