I am getting tired of reading news stories about people committing violent crimes with their cars and then getting off with the judicial equivalent of a DUI conviction

Google Earth is cool
A week or so ago a co-worker of mine showed me a program he was playing with- Google Earth. Its a beta, and I had heard of it before, but it hadn’t really intrigued me very much until Dan showed it to me.
Antonia Bayle…in real life
Another strange thing about MMOGs is the fact that they have now spawned real world model searches. I’m not playing EverQuest 2 any more really, but this sort of got my attention.
Gaming…
I got my MMOG “fix” today…several hours of monster slaying in World of Warcraft with Shane, Monique, and Bryan…that’s the best kind of gaming for me. Then, a little later in the evening, I logged in again and finished a handful of quests.
Trojans…
First, let me dispell any misapprehension you might have regarding this post: it is not about condoms.
Now that I have that out of the way, what *is* this post about? Yesterday I was checking out other blogs by doing some searches on Technorati. One of the ones I clicked on caused my virus checker to throw a fit. Apparently, the site I was going to redirected me to http://please click run to remove virus .c4tdownload.com/click_run_to_remove_virus.exe. Firstly, I thought I was going to a blog, not a software install, and secondly, the “virus remover” was actually a trojan (Win32:Trojan-gen. {Other}).
Images of our life..
I managed to make a new banner image for this site…what do you think?
Okay, so its really not very new. I took my old Kelly’s World banner image, spread the pictures around, and made the title larger. I’m not an artist- wanna make something out of it? 🙂
Little things…
My life is made up of little patterns…things that I do that fit together in a way that makes me feel comfortable. I get up at a certain time, I read my email, I check my websites, I go to work…pretty much always the same sequence. It makes me feel comfortable and good.
Random picture from my gallery…
My old PHPNuke personal site had some nice features. I had no real intention of throwing them away when I switched over to WordPress here, but I also had no idea how I was going to get them back.
Terrorism losing it’s edge?
Planes crash into towers and thousands die. Bombs explode in London and dozens die. My heart goes out to those who are suffering now in England. Will we always be living in daily fear, terrified for ourselves and our loved ones?
Fun with Ecto
I imagine lots of folks out there in the Blogtopia (Blogverse? Blogvomit?) are geeks like me. I run my own web server here in my house, so when something doesn’t work…I get to fix it.
Two hours ago, I installed WordPress, this blogging application you see before you in all its currently bland glory. One big thing I wanted to try out was the concept of “offline” preparation of my little news items. There is this application for that purpose that I thought sounded nifty- Ecto. I’m using it now…two hours after I started.
