Vacation time!

Tomorrow, we’ll be leaving on a jetplane to NJ. Doesn’t sound too exciting, but we’re going to see my parental units, and I’m sure they’re as excited as I am. It’s been a couple years (since Meesh and I got married) since we’ve seen them.

Anyways, if you’re in the area and would like to get together, I’ll still be checking email and such. Just not as often.

Also, yes, comments are moderated for the first comment you make on this site. After that you’re in the clear. Yes, it’s crazy, but it makes sense.

100 facts in 100 days – Fact 28

28. I have way too many domain names. Well, let me correct that. I have too many domain names I don’t use. I’d like to throw out a list, but sheesh, there’s just too many of them. One time, I believe it was Jules who called me a “Domain Ho” at one point in time. Do I have too many domain names? Probably.

And now, for something completely different…

Please take a visit over to see Daniel, it’s his birthday today (12/22) and wish him a happy birthday and to have a better December. Damn that retail business!

Also take a visit over to hello! Food, where I’ve actually made an update. Can you believe it? (I know, huh?)

Finally, we’ll be going on vacation to see my folks in good ol’ New Jersey. We’ll be there from 12/27 to 1/3, so if you’re in the area and wanna hang out, let me know! I’m trying to plan a big bash, but alas, it might not turn out to be so big. Or a bash, we’ll see.

100 facts in 100 days – Fact 27

27. While it can’t really be true, I’m going to say it: I have too many computers. I’m sure that most people will say “Yoshi, that can’t be true, say it isn’t so!” but alas, it’s true.

Let’s see…I have:

  • Macbook
  • Powerbook (it’s old and busted but works great as a file server and other stuff)
  • Main PC for gaming
  • Dell server that’s just sitting there
  • Old TV computer that’s just sitting there
  • TV Computer that records all our shows (kinda like tivo, but it’s Beyond TV)
  • Sun Sparc 1 that’s just sitting there with a 20″ monitor (I have to get rid of this)

Of course, that list doesn’t even include Meesh’s computer and laptop. So what do you think? Do I have too many computers?

I can hack you (not into pieces)

Insomnic wrote an interesting article, It’s Easier To Hack You Than Your Computer, where he discusses the dangers of social engineering. If you’re not sure what that means, then by all means, Wikipedia has an article on it.

He raises a good point, and I just also want to touch on how much harm can happen if someone has too much information about you. One of my friend’s identity was stolen, and luckily enough she was able to stop a lot of the damage from happening, however, it was an ordeal. Companies are wary when you try to tell them that you’re not the one who bought so many computers. It’s crazy.

And let’s not forget the young girl who committed suicide because of “cybr-bullying”.

I digress from Insomnic’s original point however.

What it comes down to is the Internet is not quite as safe as it was before (if it was ever safe). Be careful with what you do online, and what you divulge. Remember, someone just might be watching you.

My latest Dorama

So it’s coming up to the end of “season” for the current Japanese dorama (or Drama). I don’t watch all the dorama. I mean there are quite a few running, but I do try to watch dorama that have actors and actresses I like such as Ueto Aya, Fukuyama Masaharu, and Shibasaki Kou. And yes, I will watch dorama with them in it even if it sucks. (most of the time anyways.)

Plugins, Facebook, and Movies oh my!

So, as promised (wait did I promise to do this?), I am bulleting a list of plugins that I simply can’t live without for Wordpress. I’ll put that at the end of the post, so please feel free to read on or just simply click the link to continue reading.

So I’ve been obsessing with Facebook lately. It would seem that I’ve actually got quite a few good friends in there. What’s even better, is that I finally caught up with a very good friend of which I had lost touch with a couple years ago. I’ll just go right ahead and pimp her site. Take a visit, say hello, tell her Yoshi sent you. But I digress.

Facebook is pretty cool. While I normally do detest those social networking sites like say… Myspace, I still hang out and stuff, because I like to keep up with the Jones’ and stay up to date on what’s cool and what’s not so cool. I try. But facebook has some pretty cool things in there like Applications that let you send your friends a round of drinks, play trivia games, and even a vampire application where you can bite your friends. Pretty Nifty, I think.

All in all, I think Facebook is just a good way to keep in touch with your friends. Pretty much like all social networking sites really. But I just really like Facebook. But I’ve been playing with that for a bit.
