  1. The most interesting people I have ever met still don't know what to "do with their life." I'm one of them. Is a chicken omelette redundant?
  2. Woot! another Libra (Oct 3rd here) - I hope I look that awsome at 51! I'm leaving my 30's ina few years so it's nice to see someone so hot and 50!
  3. Try living in a contractor's facility as a representative for their employer. On a daily basis I get to say "The customer is not happy about xxxx - who is responsible" and watch the scramble ensue. And if i want to start a HUGE shitstorm, I relay a few secrets about the vendor I discover on a daily basis to the powers that be... THEN it really storms! MUAHAHAHAHA Is a chicken omelette redundant?
  4. OMG! how can you forget the original! DANCING BABY! Is a chicken omelette redundant?
  5. I'm still waiting for the "Xtreme Reality Show" so I voted for the punk kid in Vegas learning to skydive. I wanna see something that reflects what all of us go through learning this demanding sport. Along with all the stuff we have learn about the culture, lingo, dumb things we did, etc. Now that would be cool. Is a chicken omelette redundant?

  7. CERT(sm) Advisory CA-96.13 July 4, 1996 Topic: ID4 virus, Alien/OS Vulnerability ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ The CERT Coordination Center has received reports of weaknesses in Alien/OS that can allow species with primitive information sciences technology to initiate denial-of-service attacks against MotherShip(tm) hosts. One report of exploitation of this bug has been received. When attempting takeover of planets inhabited by such races, a trojan horse attack is possible that permits local access to the MotherShip host, enabling the implantation of executable code with full root access to mission-critical security features of the operating system. The vulnerability exists in versions of EvilAliens' Alien/OS 34762.12.1 or later, and all versions of Microsoft's Windows/95. CERT advises against initiating further planet takeover actions until patches are available from these vendors. If planet takeover is absolutely necessary, CERT advises that affected sites apply the workarounds as specified below. As we receive additional information relating to this advisory, we will place it in ftp://info.cert.org/pub/cert_advisories/CA-96.13.README We encourage you to check our README files regularly for updates on advisories that relate to your site. - ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- I. Description Alien/OS contains a security vulnerability, which strangely enough can be exploited by a primitive race running Windows/95. Although Alien/OS has been extensively field tested over millions of years by EvilAliens, Inc., the bug was only recently discovered during a routine invasion of a backwater planet. EvilAliens notes that the operating system had never before been tested against a race with "such a kick-ass president." The vulnerability allows the insertion of executable code with root access to key security features of the operating system. In particular, such code can disable the NiftyGreenShield (tm) subsystem, allowing child processes to be terminated by unauthorized users. Additionally, Alien/OS networking protocols can provide a low-bandwidth covert timing channel to a determined attacker. II. Impact Non-privileged primitive users can cause the total destruction of your entire invasion fleet and gain unauthorized access to files. III. Solution EvilAliens has supplied a workaround and a patch, as follows: A. Workaround To prevent unauthorized insertion of executables, install a firewall to selectively vaporize incoming packets that do not contain valid aliens. Also, disable the "Java" option in Netscape. To eliminate the covert timing channel, remove untrusted hosts from routing tables. As tempting as it is, do not use target species' own satellites against them. B. Patch As root, install the "evil" package from the distribution tape. (Optionally) save a copy of the existing /usr/bin/sendmail and modify its permission to prevent misuse. - --------------------------------------------------------------------------- The CERT Coordination Center thanks Jeff Goldblum and Fjkxdtssss for providing information for this advisory. - --------------------------------------------------------------------------- If you believe that your system has been compromised, contact the CERT Coordination Center or your representative in the Forum of Incident Response and Security Teams (FIRST).

  8. I get paid to think - so figure that one out. Hmmm, I'm reading cnn.com, but I'm also pondering the implications of the next round of procedures on certain technologies in our environment. Guess I could do that with a broom too, but hey, I don't sweep my own house let alone this cube farm. I also find e-learning very rewarding when I have free time. I'm at my desk and earning credits in whatever I'm studying that week.CBTs ROCK! Is a chicken omelette redundant?

  13. Nightjumper - what kind of dog is Cara? Is she a Rott with cropped ears? Also - is this just for fun or are you a S&R type person? I have a local dog club here in Hawaii taht I sent your info/jump pics too. They think they're so badass, had to give them a little dose of reality. I know they're going to ask me about you and her and your training background. Thanks! Is a chicken omelette redundant?

  17. I hate UA - they should just sell off their crappy planes to good airlines, pay their people their retirement and go die quietly. They're just another Enron waiting to happen. Along those lines Hawaiian air sucks too - lousy mean service. Aloha? MY ASS! Is a chicken omelette redundant?
  18. Great discussion! Sorry for being unclear about "strong". I definitely did not mean in the physical sense (muscles, bench pressing and all that). Bravo Winsor! You managed to articulate what I was driving at! Thank you, now I can sleep.
  19. OK, everywhere I look I'm reading from women about how they "scared" their man away because they are strong women. Or, men are "scared shitless" by strong women. Usually these statements are accompanied by "he didn't call me back because" or "he left because"... I don't buy it. Can they men out there, who I know are exposed to strong women in this sport, clear this up for me? Do you shy away from strong women? Is it scary or something else? Is a chicken omelette redundant?
  20. Did this gentleman in the Mustang recently lose a sister, mother or perhaps wife? Friend? Is a chicken omelette redundant?

  23. HA! Ha! You'll be fine, just be sure to say on the TAIL side of the doggies. If they're doing K9 exercises with seasoned dogs, have no fear - those dogs only pursue the appointed target. Well, at least they're supposed to. Of course, they might not be doing bite work. They could be doing tracking or drug sniffing... Is a chicken omelette redundant?

  25. NO FAIR! I freaking jumped out of my seat in my cube. I have headphones on and now I'm sure the rest of the floor thinks I've lost my mind. Oh wait, they already knew that. LH* Is a chicken omelette redundant?
