VPN’s, Tunnels, and the Left Coast

I believe in security…big time, but let me tell you…Virtual Private Networks can get complicated. Really really complicated. Getting everything to sync is a challenge to say the least, especially when you have traveling remote users who login from Hotel, Somewhere. But I do loves me a challenge, and a nice tunnel.

I’m still double fucking double ass busy. Having to charge my Blackberry three times a day.

Anyway, Newt Gingrich said, and I couldn’t agree more, that a powerful Pelosi “would be a disaster�

He said the thought of California Rep. Nancy Pelosi becoming the next leader of the House and being third in line to the presidency is frightening.


"The prospect of her bringing San Francisco values and a whole attitude on foreign policy that is, I think, an attitude of weakness and appeasement and surrender, I think, would be a disaster for the country"

I couldn’t agree more.

Still Way Too Busy

You have 9 golf balls. 8 of which are equal in weight.

The ninth is slightly heavier then the rest.

You also have a balancing scale.

Can you use this scale two times and only two times in order to tell which ball is heavier?

C'mon...I know you can.

Too Damn Busy

Apples for Apples

A man was asked what price per 100 he paid for some apples.

His reply was as follows: "If they had been 4 cents more per 100 I should have got five less for $1.20."

Can you say what the price was per 100?

Wiggle My Wine

My woman made a little extra folding money last week...so I just dropped a grand on her birthday present a catdaddy Bose 10 speaker surround sound system. It is up and running, and it is way too sweet. This deal moves the wine in my glass, as does she. Actually, her birthday present is a surprise, but it sounded good.

Now, I guess I’ll have to move my “old� Klipsch Horns into the bedroom. It could be worse. If those Horns could talk…I’d be in jail.

Now that is truly some Bad Bad Juju.

Three Words

As some of you know, I've been working on the 2nd most complex project of my life. Over the last five days I've cut to the chase.

Prevailing Winds

Israel underestimated the strength of Hezbollah, and the support they receive from Iran. Anything brokered by the United Nations will fail, and Israel and the United States will face some tough decisions, very soon. Israel cannot, and will not, under any circumstances, allow Iran to go nuclear. It will not happen. We are way past sanctions now, and have been for some time.

Obviously, Israel can’t detonate a nuclear weapon in Lebanon, no more than North Korea could nuke South Korea; it’d be like nuking themselves, but Iran is, by air, 1,250 miles from Israel. That is feasible; the prevailing winds are in their favor, and they might not have a choice. Israel can, and will, do whatever it takes to survive. They have no other choice but to defeat radical Islam.

I am in no way an advocate of a nuclear strike on anyone, but I believe Israel has the right to exist…whatever the cost. We used nuclear weapons in Japan to end World War II for one simple reason. To save American lives. Well, maybe, also, to scare the Russians. A full-scale invasion of Japan would have caused massive civilian casualties and heavy loss of life for American forces. Is the world a better place because of those decisions? I think so.

I believe war with Iran is inevitable because Iran wants it. Mahmoud Ahmadinejad is a fanatical IslamoFascist madman. He is committed to the complete destruction of Israel, and the West.

If you were Israeli, how would you feel, and what would you do? How much force is too much force?

I’m just saying the world is on a hair trigger, and it is not just the Middle East.

This is some Bad Bad Juju.

Just Do It...The World Is On Fire

Israel must do whatever is necessary to remove the IslamoFacist threat, even if it means nuking these motherfuckers...and the U.S. should support and help them.

Just do it and be done with it.

The United Nations can kiss my ass. That dog won't hunt. Anyone who believes this latest resolution will work...is fucking crazy, or stupid, or both.

Radical Islam knows no borders, and so, Israel should not recognize 'em either. I say they should go after them wherever they are. I also believe that if Hezbollah hides amongst the innocent; they should kill them as well.

It is time to stop fucking around, and spank these bastards...once and for all. We must adapt to their rules. Sad, but true.

This shit is going to get a lot worse before it gets better.

These people HATE everything we (the West) stand for. Everything. They are jealous of our way of life. We need to get tough...and probably kill that piece of shit Kofi Annan while we’re at it.

I'm just saying.

Busy Busy Busy

Actually, I’m busier than I’ve been since 1999. Coming to the end of the 2nd most complex project I’ve ever been involved in, but I just fired up the Juju. The latest, greatest Pentium with 900 Gig disk, 4 Gig of memory, two video cards with 512 MB each, and the catdaddy DVD thing. Also, two Sony 19-inch flat panels. Sweet. You gotta use two monitors...just must do it...trust me.

It could be worse…I think I need some new speakers.

I love this shit!

The Point Of No Return

Some people look for the good in everything, and some people look for the bad. As of late, I’ve been dealing with the later. I know some people who “want" to find something wrong with everything. They seek it like a junkie looking for the next fix.

I know some people who talk about women like they’re a piece of meat. I know some people who…well never mind…you get my drift.

As John Haldeman said during Watergate, “Once the toothpaste is out of the tube, it's hard to get it back in."

Well I just squeezed the shit out of it…there is no turning back now.

Do not fuck with Yabu. He is a man of honor.

Hash Under Glass

We use to take a big ass chunk of Red Lebanese Hash…put it on a pin…fire it up…cap it with a glass…and suck up the smoke.

Kind of reminds me of the Middle East today.

If it were I, I’d smoke it all…if you know what I mean.

I’m just sayin’
