He doesn't deserve the doctorate anymore than he deserves to be famous with a fan base. Dudes an ass.
"In the shade now tall forms are advancing, And their wan hands like snowflakes in the moonlight are gleaming; They beckon, they whisper, 'Oh! strong armed in valor, The pale guests await thee - mead foams in Valhalla.'" - Finn's Saga
Back from vacation. It was an awesome trip. Did the nerdy and got a wand at Universal. Spent a day at beautiful gennie springs. Spent some time with my nieces and nephew. And a day in St augustine. Back home now. And found out we are so bogged down at work I'm probably going to be working overtime. Ugh. Ah well back to real life.
We are what we are. Nothing more, nothing less. There is good and evil among every kind of people. It's the evil among us who rule now. -Anne Bishop, Daughter of the Blood
I wondered if he could ever understand that it was a blessing, not a sin, to be graced with more than one love.
It could be complicated; of course it could be complicated. And it opened one up to the possibility of more pain and loss.
Still, it was a blessing I would never relinquish. Love, genuine love, was always a cause for joy.

The grandma of the house is in the hospital with chest pains. She's still in there getting tests done. It's not a heart attack I guess since they would have seen that right away. I just hope she's ok. She's the nicest little old lady I ever met. The nice version of my nana. She spends her day in the garden and in the kitchen. She has some health problems, but has stayed active all this time. Thinking of her today.
CBS, I'm willing to ignore just much easier than life, 90% of what pops up in Cyber is because that's a trope of TV. I'm also willing to ignore your tendency to assign invalid IP addresses in the script because I'm sure someone would be dumb enough to start investigating IP addresses if you used real ones. I'll go further and say that some of the ideas you pull in are entertaining and moderately feasible (just harder than you make them look). However, let's talk about Cold Boot Attacks.
Yes, using compressed air to freeze RAM so you can perform data forensics is possible. It's unreliable (multiple issues can make it fail) but it's possible if you're lucky.
Yes, having this concept show up on TV was pretty cool.
Yes, you applied this idea to a machine that had been off for several hours with its hard drive removed while it sat in a room with a corpse.
Yes, RAM degrades extremely fast without power.
Yes, the correct time to apply compressed air is before you cut power to the machine.
Yes, you successfully took a unreliable but occasionally awesome tool and reduced it from the status of "unreliable but might save your ass in a pinch" to "Great God of Computers have mercy on me because I am ****ed without you" and then passed it off as a perfectly reasonable plan in the script. Bravo! Well Done!!!
Life itself was a lightsaber in his hands; even in the face of treachery and death and hopes gone cold, he burned like a candle in the darkness. Like a star shining in the black eternity of space.
Yoda: Dark Rendezvous
"But those men who know anything at all about the Light also know that there is a fierceness to its power, like the bare sword of the law, or the white burning of the sun." Suddenly his voice sounded to Will very strong, and very Welsh. "At the very heart, that is. Other things, like humanity, and mercy, and charity, that most good men hold more precious than all else, they do not come first for the Light. Oh, sometimes they are there; often, indeed. But in the very long run the concern of you people is with the absolute good, ahead of all else..."
John Rowlands, The Grey King by Susan Cooper
"You come from the Lord Adam and the Lady Eve", said Aslan. "And that is both honour enough to erect the head of the poorest beggar, and shame enough to bow the shoulders of the greatest emperor on earth; be content."

YESsssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss ssssssssssssss mainly I'm just glad all the Talent at Konami are going independent, since that boat is slowly taking on more and more water.
I'm thinking about how hard it is to stay strong and fight for your needs when you know your words are tearing apart someone you love. Doesn't help that he suffers from BPD, and I'm so scared he'll have an episode and hurt himself. I swear, if this falls through, I'm never having a long distance relationship again.
My laptop has cooties. I haven't been able to use it for three weeks, although it looks nice sitting there.
Every moment of a life is a horrible tragedy, a slapstick comedy, dark nihilism, golden illumination, or nothing at all; depending on how we write the story we tell ourselves.
I just read about this Bluebeam theory. http://rationalwiki.org/wiki/Project_Blue_Beam and I'm thinking how sad it is that people have to make up all these things, out of fear/boredom/whatever.

Can you hear me, Major Tom? I think I love you.

Damn it! People keep letting the cats out of the sacks!
