hiking at los liones

Few weeks ago I went hiking after work with Scott and Sue at Los Liones. Even late in the day, it was really hot. By the time we stopped for an extended break, I sweating like the out of shape pig I am. During the extended break, we took the time to cool off and fool around a bit for the camera.

online publishing systems

This is a geeky bookmark post for geeks and sys admins. Check out these two open source projects. Magnolia is a j2ee-based CMS product. The humano2 project is even more interesting. It’s a business app framework which seems very interesting. I like building things without major programming and it looks like humano might make that possible.

lord of war

The official site for this movie is so over flashed-up it’s unbearable. I did some searches for gunrunning links, but what I found was too political to be casually linked. So instead, I’ll link to Yuri Orlov the physicist. Same name as the character from this fair movie, but not the same man at all.

security madness

Right.. I’m going to need a new web host again. I can never use the word po’ker in a file or directory name because it will be banned by mod_security. ACK! So, enjoy the pictures of the p0ker table. And, no, that is NOT I repeat NOT a gambling table. It is a p0ker table. I leave it up to each of you to figure out what that actually is.

I’ve been listening to the first episode of The Signal podcast. I don’t know what the other episodes will be like, but the first show uses a lot of audio from the show. Not sure how legal it is, but it makes for some fun listening.

the great raid

An excellent movie. Looking forward to seeing and reading more about this.

i’m a lemon bar

You are what you eat, so the saying goes. So tonight, I’m a lemon bar! We were at Frito Misto in Santa Monica for dinner. When the waiter asked if we wanted dessert, we said no thank you. But we said something about how good we’d heard they were, and the waiter agreed, told us we should try them some because they’re homemade. Lo and behold, instead of coming back with our check, he came back with a lemon bar and fresh whipped cream. Oh my!
