My Personal Blog

Many people are just getting comfortable using the world wide web for daily use.
Although it can be fun and entertaining, there is a lot you should know to help make your stay more enjoyable.

1: Don't purposely allow yourself to get spammed.
Never use your personal email address to sign up for anything. I can't tell you how many times I have seen people frustrated with the size of their inbox due to massive amounts of unwanted mail. Contrary to what you believe, you do NOT just get random emails. They all come from a list somewhere, and you are on it.

Recently, I have been receiving more spam calls than usual.
Usually it is a real person trying to sell magazines or something to that affect. But, the ones more recently have been pre recorded messages that are trying to sell me ad space on google.
Hmm.. Lemme see, if I wanted to advertise with Google, I would speak with a google rep, not some random person who has my info.

Why is it that every morning I check the logs, and I have thousands of hack attampts from China?

I know that people could be from wherever and just use China as a proxy.. but I refuse to believe that. Not every hacker on earth uses a Chinese Proxy Server. Thats what russia is for..

So, I am planning a way that I can block every single IP address from China from my webserver. (Just retarded that I have to do this.)

Anyone who has had a bull by the tail knows five or six more things than someone who hasn't.

A: Seven. Scotty has to report to Captain Kirk that the light bulb in
the Engineering Section is getting dim, at which point Kirk will send
Bones to pronounce the bulb dead (although he'll immediately claim
that he's a doctor, not an electrician). Scotty, after checking
around, realizes that they have no more new light bulbs, and complains
that he "canna" see in the dark. Kirk will make an emergency stop at
the next uncharted planet, Alpha Regula IV, to procure a light bulb

We went to the DC Aquarium. It was kinda small, fun nonetheless.

I am sure many of you have heard the news. The Playstation Network has been taken offline.

I want out. I don't want to help you figure shit out. I do not want to fix your computer or troubleshoot your network. I don't want you to waste anymore of my time. Please to not call me asking how to open a spreadsheet. I do not have time for that.

When I am at work, I will never answer the phone... because I am at work and answering would only be a waste of time. When I am not at work, I do not want to be bothered with your bullshit.

I can careless if your world is turned upside down because of your lack of intelligence.

Surely, we all want Justice. We all want the wrong do-ers to die a gruesome death. But don't believe the hype.
Since when do you believe everything you see on CNN? So, when do you believe everything that your government tells you?

Im not trying to debunk this whole thing, but seriously, DO YOU REALLY EXPECT US TO FALL FOR THIS SHIT AGAIN?

So the news reports everywhere are discussing the final capture / death of Bin Laden..

Here's what I find to be interesting.

It seems like the little things make me laugh these days.
Here is a snippet of a conversation I had today with a co-worker: (BTW I am Joshua)
