(Yes, as promised I’m still blogging, just not on the technology or information security industries).
Look I understand too little too late I realize there are things you say and do You can never take back But what would you be if you didn’t even try You have to try So after a lot of thought I’d like to reconsider Please If it’s not too late Make it a cheeseburger
I love Mythbusters; and before every show there’s the obligatory warning, “Don’t try this at home. We’re what you call professionals”. Which is really disappointing since I now have no idea what to do with the 500 lbs of explosives, the crash test dummy, and the balistics gel sitting in my garage.
I have been told to no longer cover technology issues on my personal blog (that’s this).
Unless/until circumstances change I won’t be posting anything related to technology or that could be construed in a way to potentially violate this policy.

I’ve been running my eval copy of Vista (as a virtual machine) for a couple of weeks now and it’s a strange feeling. No, it has nothing to do with the new user interface (most of which won’t run in my virtual machine anyway), User Account Protection (UAP), or any of the new features.

Being on the road this week, I missed the latest drama at the Month of Apple Bugs pointed out in this post by Chris Pepper. (One thing Chris doesn’t mention is that this backdoor was only included in a pre-release version of the exploit, not the released proof of concept code).
The BCS Championship is in Phoenix tonight (that’s the college football championship game for our overseas and raging-geek readers) and Ohio State seems to have brought around 60,000 of their fans into town.
Tomorrow morning I’m off on the wonderful 6 hour flight from Phoenix to Boston
I probably don’t have time to meet up, but if any of you are in the area and want to give it a shot let me know. *[Email:]: Email *[Twitter:]: Twitter *[Phone:]: Phone
I had the opportunity to review Rothman’s Pragmatic CSO before the holidays, and it got me thinking about complexity.
(Oh yeah, and it’s really good, but I’m not allowed to endorse anything so that’s all I’ll say.)
