First I want to say that my new office looks completely cool when it’s still dark out and you come in and all you can see are the lights from the various electronic bits, monitors, hubs, KVM, computers, etc. I have to get a picture of it one morning. And yes, I’m up early again. […]

It started out as a discussion of the spam that was hitting the gentoo-dev list, and I was told about bogofilter, a Bayesian spam filter that use word count stats and analysis to filter spam. Up until now I’ve been using spam assassin and it’s been working pretty well. I just purged my spam folder

Ever come into a conversation halfway through, and just not want to know? Thefollowing was heard being said from one front desk girl to another as I exitedthe gym this morning: “… that’s a lot of licking…” Some things you really don’t want to know, ya know? In other news, I got an email back
Busy couple of days. I’ve been working my ass off on some funky mod_perl stuff, and loving it. Got a bunch of stuff over to my folks for their garage sale on saturday, old computer games, random toys that have been gathering dust, etc. Of course, we came back with a few things as well,
