Daily Weird News
Well, I'm still sick at home, but the beauty of programming is you can be very effective offsite. So for at least one more day I can spend what little physical reasoruces I have working from home and posting things to my blog.
Virus Alert!!! Do not open the file 'tsunami.exe'. It is a mass mailing worm that will do awful thigns to your system and the network you are on. What kid of sick, sad bastard preys on such a disaster?
You can see how the rest of the world is just wild about welcoming GW Bush back into office. He may have been a uniter in Texas, but he sure was not on the world stage.
You know, I saw a TV show last night where some Americans were abroad and could not understand why people around the world hate the US. One of the characters then said, "Well if you took the time to get to know us, you might not hate us." Interesting. And how much does the average Ameican Citizen know about the rest of the world? When I was a kid in Canada, I still remember American kids coming up for summer camp and wondering where all igloos went...
A British 'Abu Ghraib'. These are dome pretty awful pictures of prisoner abuse. Looks like the US soldiers are not the only ones abusing prisoners.
It's nice to see that talks with the NHLPA and the owners have begun again. Will it be more of the same? Probably.
Here's an interesting new use for WD-40, that old stand-by lubricant of every man, almost as useful as duct tape.
