Did anyone see the 'stros last night :) ooohhh baby this race is heatin up! Angie had tix to the game thru her work, it was a power mangers day or something so I told that's ok you go network with your people... well she knew she was in trouble when she found her seat... front row third base line at the bend... s'ok I'll get over it. #$%^$%^^%$^&*%#$$^&*(^$^&@@
I took Dade to see a 3d-Imax yesterday and he loved it. I think it had to much motion sickness stuff in it but the graphics and 3d-ness was quite good.
Oh yea my worm adventure apparently was going on around the world at the same time. The Code Red worm whacked the crap out of tons of machines Thursday and made the news on Friday, I saw it on CNN, in the Chronicle, on TechTV, USA Today, SlashDot and heard it on the radio. Apparently it was set to flood the White House web site with a Distrubuted Denial of Service attack at 5p Pacific. To bad the White House found out and moved the server to another IP number first. HA! I feel so privelidged to be part of such a news worthy event... uhhh not really.
For those who want to know what a DDOS(see above paragraph) attack is go here. This guy wrote it up in the best way I have ever seen. It is very good reading and fully illustrates the fact that internet is really a volitile fragile place, and that a 13 year old kid can flat out knock you out and there is nothing you can do about it. Have a read.
Ok have you ever wanted to know about movies looooooong before they are out, try this link. Warning they spoil movies by telling the plot sometimes, but they always tell you they are gonna spoil. They have stuff like what is happening on the new Star Wars movie and insights to the new movie called ALI ... a movie about Cassius Clay(Muhamed Ali) starring Will Smith... yep the skinny Fresh Prince! Anyway have fun, but be warned there is some graphic language sometimes.
Ok add this to my technolust wish list... mmmm wi-fi too...
Well I have finaly decided on a PDA... I know I'm so behind the times, but anyway Toshiba has come out with a new Pocket PC color PDA. It is as thin as a Palm Vx almost, and has a Type II CF card slot and an SD mem card slot, no sleeve needed. Just drop one of these 5G CF cards in it YES! It's running a 206Mhz processor that is the same as the iPaq. Considering Toshiba's track record with laptops I think I'll be in line to get one of these gems on August 20th. that's all for now... i.am.sam
