10:58 pm - DENIED
I have been denied by the gods themselves. Main Street Internet Cafe is no more. It is gone away forever. :( Sorry Rev, the Devious failed. :((

5:19 pm - Stop bein' a bitch and come on!
The Rev just called and said no one was commin', but if you know the Devious than you know when I set out to do something it gets done, and done right. I'm out to honor and support my friend tonight, and though tired and weary I will, because I said I will. The Rev says he'll still meet the lot of us so that's where my group and me will be. Any and all are welcome to join still. 7:00pm Main Street Internet Cafe.

8:43 am - F'n Freaky!!!
So I got an e-mail from a friend of mine this morning and he asked me if I remembered this Israeli Art student that had stopped by our office, back at Ethentica ( three jobs ago ). Of course I did, she was really cute and nice too. At the time I didn't think much of it. We all had a cigarette and chatted about stuff... you know typicall small talk stuff.. She asked Roger and I what we did at Ethentica.. so we asked her what selling art door-to-door was like. etc. The event passed without incident... forgotten till today... He sent me the following story.

8:30 am - Blast from the past...
the happy worker




Coughing from the smoke of a black roof chimney
Marching to the beat of a hot roof over me
Hey, ho, here we go, we're off to work again
Bells are ringing, we are singing,
Joyous in our industry

(chorus):
I love my job
he loves his job
pull that lever
start the engine
pump the water
build the pressure
push the piston
press the button

pump the water
build the pressure
push the piston
press the button

It's the perfect job

Happy workers

Hey gang,

Now is the time for all good people to come to the aid of their Rev.

Update: Thursday or Saturday, on the poll. The Rev can't make it Wednesday or Friday... Thus defeating the purpose of The Rev's support night.

8:52 am - Selected works...
I will be favoring my friends with selected works I made last night waiting at the Saucer. No one except Ms. Lady showed. It was fun, just her and I but still... Anyhow here's the first in a sampling of three..



Bars


If I was to write what I really feel...
   would it cease to have meaning, cease to be real?
Cause when you say something, and say it right there,
   it just sort of hangs in the dank smokey air...
and is usually gone by morning.




Update: I type the wrong link in for Ms. Lady. Apologies to both Ms. Lady and Miss Lady Sorry 'bout the confusion folks.

4:25 pm - Hacker, Back Hoes and Fork Lifts! Oh my!

In recent news...



Ths IDS web server has hacked into last weekend. Luckily for me the guy was an idiot and didn't check my glibc version and tried to do something dumb and crashed the machine before he could affect a wipe of my logs and his "tools". Unfortunantly IDS was just another server in a long chain... The attck came from a server in Brazil, and they didn't know where their attack came from... However, I captured his root kit. If any of you linux admin types are interested in obtaing a copy of the root kit let me know... it is an invaluable security tool. Very helpful in shoring up your defenses. Just a note our system was infiltrated via Wu-FTP. There is a buffer overflow error that allows one to execute code chunks as root... Very nasty.

...and from the DAMMIT dept!



The storage facility I keep my stuff in was broken into... twice! In one of the two attempts the robbers made off with a box containing a couple check books of mine and have been cashing checks all over. It pisses me off because I can't even cash one of my own checks and they are mine!!! These punks have made off with over $700 in bad checks and the totals keep rising! I still say Starship Troopers had the right idea... Get out the whip... it's lash time!!!

In more breaking events...



He had a blackout this morning and half of our UPS's failed because they've been sitting around for three years. Just another, oh, so valuable lesson in take nothing for granted.

...further more...



Morpheus is now just another second rate Gnutella client, because someone broke the FastRak/KAZAA network and were writing directly to the Win32 system registry. So Morpheus clan check those registries!!! Serves us right for using a system with an unsecured system registry that anyone in the world can write to. Yikes!

...and finally.



Did anyone hear about the wreck on 30 today? Appearantly a fork lift fell off a bridge and killed a 96.7 radio DJ. Just goes to show you that... I dunno... watch out for fork lifts. I bring it up not because I intend disrespect toward the DJ or his family... I just hate finding new ways to die on I-30.


...and now you know the rest of the story.

What makes the Radiskull go?
Waht keeps this great big skull of mine a float?
You will never know?
You brain cannot contain the range that I attain!
Bring on the pain... I'm gonna drive you insane.
Bring on the pain... and let the terror reign.
Bring on the pain... I don't need to explain.
Bring on the pain... I'm gonna drive you insane.

Thus speakth the Radiskull

1:18 pm - Question of the day:
Does The Rev actually work anymore or was he actually able to pull off what we PERL types have always dreamed about? To wit, has The Rev actually succeded in writing a PERL script to replace himself so he can post LJ all day long?

12:54 pm - Sick.
I finally caught the crap that's been going around. I hate calling in sick when I am actually sick... It defeats the purpose of taking a day off if you have to spend it coughing and wheezing with a sore throat. Blech! For as much fun as I am having right now I may as well have gone in to work. This sucks.
