Happy Birthday Steve!

Keep on Rockin the Free World my friend

its like a warm air bath

with a perfect breeze to freshen the air

Lou Molinaro (host of Lou's Control on Mohawk College radio the past decade) has been doing an amazing job of bringing some truly high quality acts into the Corktown the past couple of years... at the same time as remaining true to the bar's punk rock heritage

haven't been down to the bar since Lou took over scheduling but am looking forward to it... Lou's definately someone I consider quality people

in any case, sometimes its nice to stay at the Motel 7 instead of the Ramada

had some blasts at the Corktown years back... lookin forward to partyin there again

Tony Levin for god's sakes! still in shock

people are great

"YARRR"

does sound like a worthy itinerary for Alabama Man's birthday week!

as for a stealth car, driving down the highway figured there must be a folk legend about someone with the mountain of cash who decided "have Lamborgini shaped like F-117 and radar-absorbent paint job, will travel"... you just know someone had to have tried

now to figure out how to beat the laser... as air defense systems don't just use lasers to spot stealthy planes, you'd figure it can be done

programming school messed my damn noodle!

lol

actually do spend a decent amount of time thinking about such things because I find it interesting... left off my comp studies having become aware of, but not really grasping the mysterious "kernel" along with the "shell" which seemed to be the object of C (at the time) programmers desire particularly on Unix systems... at which time I realized school was full of too many florescent lights, and the undeniable strength of new found love would effortlessly plow through anything the future held... (whoops)

got interested in programming because of my interest in psychology, oddly enough... taking psych at McMaster basically taught me we don't really understand much about the mind... figured if you could conceive how to get plotted sequences of actions to accomplish tasks, then maybe grok what it takes to enable a series of electrical pathways to eventally make choices independent of programming (learn) it could offer a glimpse at how we work, as we also run off electrical impulses... ("and chemical..." he mulled over, glancing from his glass of pop to the computer tower and back)

why'd the steel worker study psychology? because he was crazy, like everyone else taking psych =)

(ok, thats it... I'm off to bed)

more daydreaming than about to start soldering my motherboard in any case... feeding content to the insatiable mad interweb steals too much of my time to leave any for such joyous frivalties

Damn!!

ok, thats quite enough shows I can't possibly miss to have announced within a day and a half for now...

Would it ever be worth it to keep your computer's clock from moving foward just so that you could never pay for a few piece's of trialware?

more a "how might it work" than a "would it be worthwhile" ponder... figure someone got obsessed with "beating the clock", free software could've been a motivator

was going over different ways of manipulating the clock in my head... personal favorite flight of fancy was to have the clock go back in time, second by second, minute by minute, year by year... could be kind of endearing as it'd make you aware of the aging of your system (so long as you were also paying attention to calendar time)... also be a kind of cryptic way to watch time go by... the confusion of it makes me smile =)

obviously a purchase or cracked torrent would do the trick a thousand-fold easi-ly-er... but that wouldn't teach you the intricacies of whats going on inside your O/S shell (seemed to pay off for Gates and Jobs )

why'd the man climb the mountain? cause he blew all his money on weed and couldn't afford the ski-lift

cheers, thanks for the inputs

looks like things gradually build nicely all the way up to an epic Sunday

good thing I learned how to sleep at festivals last year

whoa... that sounds pretty damn hard to pass up

thanks for heads up, hadn't been paying attention

new orleans birthday! sweets!

all the best bro!

sounds like you've got it covered.

hey hey!

happy birthday Amy!

hamilton-ish heavyweight

yeah, kinda figured someone would've... people are great

thankya bradM... on to new thoughts

lol

queries that ran through the noggin this week:

has anyone ever built (or tried to build) a "stealth" car that avoids radar?

and... if someone hacked their operating system date to remain on the same day, you'd figure you could use trial software forever... has it been done?

and imagine if you could combine the 2?! (ok, just made that one up)

that is a nice curtain

reminds me of magicians

noticed all the security forums talking about this so downloaded the 10 day trial and gave it a run (you can also run it right off their website without downloading)

it found a significant amount of crap missed by Norton... I feel cleaner... sharin the wealth

ewido anti-malware

broken news

everyone's still smilin though... likely including Keith (sure his pharmacist has him well looked after)

a cool idea
