7540 - Friddy-friddy-frid.

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.

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

Unsolicited bear-knocking

A bear has become an unwanted guest in one Croatian town after learning how to knock on the door to trick people into letting it in.

The 35-stone monster knocked at the door of the Loknar family from Gerovo in western Croatia three times and they are now refusing to answer the door, ananova reports.

"I opened the door and saw him standing there and I didn't believe my eyes at first, then I ran for it as he walked in as if it was the most normal thing in the world," mother Nevenka Loknar said.

"Bears are a common thing in the woods around here, but no one has ever heard of a bear that knocks at the door.

"The bear is so intelligent it's incredible."

It appears as though the bear got lucky when he nudged the door for the first time and has continued to do so since believing he will get an answer again.
