Me: Have I ever told you that I appreciate you?
Jenny: Nope, never.
Me: There must be a reason for that.

One more reason to hate McAfee

Posted on July, 30 at 8:05 am

Oops, e-mail security vendor McAfee spills 1400 private names

Recipients asked to delete the leaked data

In a story just dripping with irony, e-mail security vendor, McAfee, has accidentally sent the contact details of more than 1400 conference attendees in a spreadsheet attached to a thank you message.

On July 17, McAfee held a security conference at the Sydney Convention Centre. The event was well attended by about 800 guests. But in e-mail a week later thanking people for attending, McAfee added a spreadsheet containing names, numbers, e-mail addresses, employment details and even dietary requirements of 1408 people.

More

Just remember kids, using McAfee is the same as asking for bad things to happen to you.

Twitter is like Christianity. Everyone likes to criticize it, but few understand it or really even know anything about it.

Transformers 2

Posted on July, 4 at 10:06 am

was terrible.  I went in with low expectations and it was still bad.  While watching it, it occurred to me that one of the best parts of this movie was Megan Fox’s acting.  Still, I can’t wait for Transformers 3: Revenge of the Robo-balls.

Went trail riding last night and noticed that my bike seemingly developed a mind of its own and was trying to shift by itself.  When I got back to the truck I looked it over and noticed that the chain somehow got twisted.  Not quite sure how it happened, but I am going to try and twist it back until I can get it replaced.

Monica Conyers guilty in Synagro bribery scandal

Paul Egan / The Detroit News

Detroit — Detroit City Council Pro Tem Monica Conyers pleaded guilty to a felony today in connection with the city sludge contract hauling scandal. Detroit’s top federal prosecutor said no other City Council members would be charged in connection with the contract.

Conyers, 44, spoke softly in federal court as she admitted taking bribes in connection with $1.2 billion Synagro Technologies Inc. contract the Detroit City Council awarded in 2007.

Conyers changed her position from opposing to supporting the deal to cast the deciding vote.

Conyers could be facing about three years in prison under her plea agreement. Her attorney, Steve Fishman, believes federal sentencing guidelines of 30-37 months apply.

Federal prosecutors believe she would get the full five years under sentencing guidelines.

She was such a charming woman.
