Here's a post for ya:

Now, most of you know that I travel, well, ALL the time. I've been in North Carolina for the last two weeks. And will be for two more. On my way today. Sitting in a "cyberbar" as I write this.

I don't expect ALOT out of TSA agents, because, well, I've learned better. And maybe it's just me, but the...

Christ I'm bored.

So I'm here in Sanford North Carolina for two more weeks. Denver this weekend, New Orleans next weekend, and NYC the weekend after that. Then back to Orange County, California to deal with the client from hell.

God what I wouldn't do for a large amount of semtex.

So I got an email in response to a resume I sent off not too long ago. Had two phone interview and got offered the job. Great right? Yah, well, there's a big trick to it.

It's a hacking job. No problem.
It pays 200k a year plus room and board. ABSOLUTELY no prob.
It's for 3 years. I can handle that.
It's in Saudi...

Wow. 30. Another year.

And her I am in Sanford North Carolina. I wish this gig was a hack versus just a vulnerability scan, because I would own France and Germany right now. These guys are WAY open.

Do me a favor boys and girls. Make sure your windows boxes are all patched up. Don't rely on firewalls, because they are really easy to get...

Well, first things first. RIP Johnny Ramone.

Johnny Ramone, guitarist and co-founder of the seminal punk band "The
Ramones," has died. He was 55.

Ramone died in his sleep Wednesday afternoon at his Los Angeles home
surrounded by friends and family, his publicist said.

All you people who think your Kryptonite lock is the shit when it comes to locking up your bike... think again....

Remember Adam Curry from MTV in the beginning? Well he apparently learned how to code. And is coming out with On-demand audio for the iPod. Pretty bad ass.

So last night, while riding around, I came across a bus with a billboard on it for the Denver Children's Hospital. Nothing amazing. Til I read it.

"Swallow. Swallow. Ow. Swallow."

That's what it said. Anyone else see the problem with this, or is it just my fucked up head?

In other news, dark matter? Or aliens??

Back in California. OC isn't too terrible. At least I can be in LA within 30 minutes.

Maybe I'll go harass Disney later.

Was supposed to be making a whirlwind tour of Europe in two weeks for a hack gig. France, Netherlands, Italy, Romania, and a couple of other places. Four weeks. Now I have to sit in an office in Sanford North Carolina (wherever...

New Orleans was a pain in the ass. Lots of stress, lots of bullshit, lots of drama that was not necessary.

Going to go try to check out a place to live today. 2000 sq feet of house - 2 or 3 bedrooms, big basement, office, and a art showroom/studio. All for 1500 a month. Hopefully we can get it. If not, back to looking...

Running off to New Orleans in a couple of hours. Time to deal with bullshit that should have been taken care of a long time ago.

Took some pics from my friend Kam's memorial last weekend. It was a good thing. The garden we had the stone placed in is BEAUTIFUL. The dinner was good too. 40 people showed up. We had a good time...

I saw the best minds of my generation destroyed by madness, starving hysterical naked,

dragging themselves through the negro streets at dawn looking for an angry fix,

angelheaded hipsters burning for the ancient heavenly connection to the starry dynamo in the machinery of night,

who poverty and tatters and hollow-eyed and high sat up smoking in the supernatural darkness of cold-water flats floating across the...

Well, got my next assignment. Looks like I'm heading back to Cypress California. Working on an insurance company. I was out there for 3 months about a month and a half ago.

Could be a worse gig. Not a hacking gig (although I might be able to get them to sign off on one), but it's 3 months long, so I don't have to worry...
