Back Atcha'

I'm still very tired, and a little worse for wear (I'm getting too old to pull these all-nighters like a college freshman cramming for finals). But here I am.

Speak softly and carry a sawed-off shotgun. One of the interesting tid-bits that came out of the recent Russian Soyuz spacecraft landing is the news that the capsule is armed. It seems an earlier off-target capsule landed among a pack of hungry wolves, so, from that point forward, all Soyuz spacecraft came armed with a shotgun. What was that about the right to arm [Russian] bears? See the story, via Fark here.

"They took everything, even the silverware." Looting broke out in the city. Mobs of crazed, greedy people took anything that wasn't welded down. Nothing was safe. It was as if the thin veil of civilization was torn into shreds by the animalistic rampage. Iraq? Nope. Try the United Nations - in New York City. It seems the food workers went on strike, leaving thousands of the world's elite, peace-loving diplomats without food. So what did they do? They acted like the blood-thirsty sycophantic sybarites that they are and looted the restaurants taking everything with them. See the full story here.

Top 75 Network Security Tools For those of you who need to know such things, here's a list of security tools that you may, or may not, be aware of.

Now if they would just write more tools for token-ring networks I would be extremely happy.

Aloha!
