My wife is so beautiful! She is an absolute work of art!

It’s the Easter belly! 

I love waking up early. I almost got up at 3am today but gave myself permission to sleep until 6:10. When I took the dog outside the air was crisp and the birds, hundreds of birds, were singing away. It was loud and beautiful. I could identify some. Between 4am and 7am the birds sing the most and I could sit outside the entire time and do nothing but absorb what they have to say!

Hit a couple of major milestones on a project today. That feels good. Much more to go.

William H. Bonney: You remember the stories John use to tell us about the the three chinamen playing Fantan? This guy runs up to them and says, “Hey, the world’s coming to an end!” and the first one says, “Well, I best go to the mission and pray,” and the second one says, “Well, hell, I’m gonna go and buy me a case of Mezcal and six whores,” and the third one says “Well, I’m gonna finish the game.” I shall finish the game, Doc.

So, that talking you’ve been doing to your plants and the classically music played for them to hear apparently doesn’t make you all that crazy afterall

Not only can plants communicate with each other and with insects by coded gas exhalations, scientists say now, they can perform Euclidean geometry calculations through cellular computations and, like a peeved boss, remember the tiniest transgression for months.

Next time you need a little help on that math homework talk to your plant. (the story)

I forgot to meantion that on the banner above clicking each flavor takes you to a different page of the Adagio site.

I had a very productive and fun day of wireless networking challenges. I connected an office wirelessly using two DLink 7100APs. One acted as the access point and the other as a repeater. Much fun!

Woke at 5:30. Spent the day at the computer. Had an afternoon break to help Sarah deliver Girl Scout cookies. Skipped dinner. Spent 5 hours removing some nasty spyware and viruses from a computer. Returned home to grab 20 minutes of sleep then return to programming on the computer after brewing my final pot of coffee. The bean is dead! Java no more! Have an 8 hour day planned for tomorrow to help a company move their office and make sure all their computers are working.

I had a 5 hour computer repair tonight. I would have liked to have laid hands on the computer for another 3-5 hours. People really can’t afford to pay what repairing these machines are worth because if I billed an appropriate hourly rate they’d be better off buying a new machine. Of course, the data is what is actually valuable to people and businesses. I think I’m going to publish the method I use for cleaning the machines.

As for now, I’m exhausted but really need to work through the night.

After a half a month of procrastination (and hopes that my PageRank™ would jump from 4 to 5) I have finally placed my links to Adagio Tea in hopes of getting to try some of their tea for free. Be sure to place a link for free tea on the page of your site with the highest pagerank. See Spy Journal Blog Tips for an explanation of PageRank™. Remember that if you put the reference in a post it could potentially scroll off to an archive with a pagerank of 0.

Be sure to read about the experiences of Cathy, Catawampus, and Zero Boss.

Two proposals out! Yahoo.

Did we, the United States, plan the terrorist attack in 1976 while George Bush Sr was running the CIA? Has GW Bush been planning for almost 30 years to steal away our freedoms in the name of making us safe? Timothy McNiven says “Our own U.S. Army devised a plan commissioned by Congress to bring down the WTC using commercial airliners and box cutters as weapons.” He apparently has documents proving his claims.

I have not Snoped this story yet. Remember, this is the Internet. Anyone can make up the "truth". Confirm your sources. I am on a deadline so I can’t confirm this story right now.

True or not the story should make us think daily on our civil liberties and ask ourselves “are we having our freedoms stolen away?” and “have we gained anything other than a false sense of security by turning our society into a George Orwellian reality?”
