Friday. Small issues being blown totally out of proportion by the big Kahuna. Primarily a side effect of the last day before she heads out of the office for training California. Later this morning, I'm going to have to clarify things to her.

I got to talk to Governor Schwarzenegger's secretary for about 5 minutes yesterday. That's an upside of opening California, I guess.

Flipside, some of the techs have been getting a little lazy on the reports, and that's increasing my paperwork. I'm not going to bark, but I will have to send out some friendly reminders.

I finally found out what 7S means. "Seven Soliders" - (not Soldiers, Solid-ers)



Autostitch is an *amazing* photo merging program. I'm still trying to figure out how it does it so well. Check out the panoramas!


Benjamin Smith III of St. Petersburg, Florida used to park his SUV outside the home of Richard Dinon for one reason only — to steal his WiFi! Shocked and appalled, Dinon called the police and had Smith arrested for using someone else’s bandwidth.

Florida law enforcement arrested Smith for unauthorized access to a computer network, which counts as a third-degree felony. - via glassdog

Q. Why did the programmer always confuse Christmas and Halloween?
A. Because Oct 31 equals Dec 25.

Newty's love went straight to my heart today. What a total love-bug! The BLAH, BLAH, BLAH icon is a treat. HEE!!!

Great!! I'm glad that you got a big dose of Newtness cuteness. :)

He is a little lover... the blah blah blah is really pictures of him cleaning himself edited, but it looks like he's gabbing. :)

Cheers!

I agree about the pod casts too... I keep thinking, am I missing some value here?

What's your take on the stealing bandwidth thing? I think that if you put it out there, you can't complain about someone listening. I think the whole pirate use for criminal purposes ought to be punished for whatever criminal purpose was detected. Just my 2 cents.

happy friday!

I tend to agree with you on wifi. I have a strong firewall, but allow folks to surf the net from my apartment area. if the bandwith becomes an issue, I can just "shut the door" to forbid access.

I agree, that if someone is doing something illegal, hit 'em at that reason.

Podcasts are nifty, but I want a transcript that I can search on! (why I like phone posts... you have the opportunity to read or listen at your whim!)

Happy coming weekend!
