I’m ashamed to say I’ve been a bit obsessed with the iPhone lately. No more.  I’m done buying into the hype.  I’m sure it’s a great phone…but it’s not worth the trouble because Apple has made it impossible for me through to walk into a store and buy one.  I thought Apple was supposed to be a ‘different’ kind of company what was uniquely personal but I find their store employees to be nothing more than part-time teenagers who aren’t interest in being smart, informative, or even humble much less provide me with polite customer service. I know it’s a good phone…but apparently so does Apple …

  I’ve got a great girl, she’s the best!  Every day I can’t wait to get back to her and make her smile.  It may sound a little sicky sweet…but it’s true.  Even after 3 months I still get butterflies when I get close to her and I can still make her smile by looking at her in a certain way. I guess it doesn’t hurt that she’s got a brilliant mind, an engaging personality, a sense of humor second to none, and a killer body.  That flat stomach STILL fascinates me…hehe. I really dig her…a lot. =)   MiH …

I’m going to be making some changes around here in the next few weeks.  This blog has maintained the same format now for several years and it’s gotten OLD so I’m going to spark it up a bit. I keep thinking and writing about video’s and multimedia is going to be part of the change for sure.

Social Engineering (SE) is a lost art that goes unrecognized in the annals of hacking history. You can be the smartest dude in the history of hacks…but if you don’t have social engineering skillz you’re not living up to your full potential.  I’ve worked next to people who’ve spent DAYS attempting to penetrate very secure systems that I’ve accessed after a 2 minute phone call. There is no geek code for SE.  There is no SE “Hall of Fame.” There are no cool SE T-shirts. and I like it that way…it’s below the Radar.  You can have your degrees, you can have …

I posted about this WAY back when it was vogue but never did anything about it. I’ve been wanting to do a lip dub for a long time now but I want it to be GOOD.  I’ve been tossing around ideas for songs but nothing has hit me yet as the perfect song for dubbing.  There are some great examples out there.  Some are done by individuals, some by groups of friends and some by a whole office full of coworkers.  I’ve attempted to get my friends here at work interested but all I get are blank, quizzical stares, which boggles me …

I’m still pretty congested but for the most part I’m feeling better every day.  It was the worst about a week ago and at this rate I’ll feel 100% within a week.  It’s also a great burden off my shoulders that I’ll no longer be taking the Chemo crap.  That was awful and really contributed to my poor state of health in my opinion.  My next dosage would be Tuesday so I imagine that’s when I’ll really start to feel better and be able to consider working out again.  I’ve lost another 10lbs or so which brings the total to …

I was diagnosed with Pneumonia yesterday! I’ve never had Pneumonia but I’ve got to say…it’s very much like a severe chest cold.  Chest X-Rays confirmed that it’s there and apparently I’ve had it for a while and thankfully I’m on the mend.  I felt horrible several days ago but I’m feeling better everyday and with the addition of antibiotics I’ll be fine in no time. Apparently the Methotrexate lowered my immunity to the point where I was susceptible to, and got this lovely little lung infection.  So, now I’m off the Methotrexate and having to let it clear out of …

What do you do with the time you have?  I’m a bit dissapointed with my own answers and I’m wondering if my own expectations don’t line up with my reality.  It’s noble to think that I’ll always choose to be productive or at least pointed with my free time but that’s not the case.  I’m innately lazy and if left to my own devices I’m easily entertained by even the most innocuous and simple things. Does that mean that I’m more consumer than producer?  And if so, what does that say about me? Don’t get me wrong, there are plenty of times …
