Ahhh....... Friday!
Dec. 21st, 2007 01:00 pmI woke up this morning smiling with the warm afterglow of a really nice evening. And no, i'm not going to go into details. I will say I did not want it to end, since things were starting to get really interesting. :-)
While i'm sitting at my computer, trying to wake up ( i.e. waiting for this RedBull to kick in), I notice a lot of network activity. Being the slightly paranoid Unix/Mac guy I am, i pop open my console, and see:

Woot! Somebody's trying to haxor my system! I do a little research, and find out they're in Italy. If it was any other day, i would probably launch a counterattck, and try to block them from attacking other, less secure people (*cough* windows xp *cough* ). Today, however, I've just got too much on my mind. I block their IP, and move on to something more interesting.
Like this! Sent to me from a high-school friend of mine. It's an a capella mens group from Indiana University, singing a "humorous rendition of the Twelve Days of Christmas that takes some surprising turns". originally linked from Coffee Klatch
