Twitter Hacks
Good morning! It's a sunny but still chilly one here. Luckily it should warm up to 45°F this afternoon. Claire took Abby and the twins to school. Michelle dropped Timothy off and is heading to an Opus Dei Women's Day of Recollection up in Bedford. I drove down to the office, offering up a set of Sorrowful Mysteries for Michelle's continuing good health and then checking in on my dad. He was already at Toledo as I wrapped up my commute.
I found that tomorrow not only should my dad arrive, but my supervisor also arrives from San Diego and will stay about a week. The timing! Still hoping to take Friday off.
Comic: “Biblical Plagues! Cost me a fortune in dry cleaning!” (comic link)
Unix geek note: you can sort and uniq'ify (remove the duplicates entries) bunch of lines with “sort -u”. Two birds with one stone. Yes, niche, but handy for the analysis I often have to do with log files.
Awesome! "What if..." Movies re-imagined for another time and place... (enjoy the posters)
16 ARM processors in a cellular chip?!? OOooh! The other end. The tower side. ;-]
Snarkasm: A Dozen Reasons NOT to Go to Confession this Lenten season.
Oh sure now HTC comes out with a suitable replacement for my ol' HTC EVO. (the HTC One). Sorry HTC. I found myself waiting too long for you to release a phone with our latest line of 3D graphics hardware, the Adreno 300 series. I went with LG's flagship phone.
When in doubt, go for the "human rights violation" angle... Panel Calls Therapy for Homosexuals a Human Rights Violation. So let me get this straight: access to abortion is supposedly a human right — a woman's freedom over her own body. But if a person wants to move away from their own homosexual lifestyle, this isn't a choice that they are allowed to make for themselves? It's not some puritan time where we have "court ordered therapy". Meanwhile in China we have forced abortion and gender selection abortion and the feminists are silent on that.
Oh the irony! Jeep's Social Media Team Posted 'How Not To Get Hacked' Article 15 Minutes Before Hack. In case you missed it, yesterday Burger King's Twitter account got hacked and no, not by McDonalds. Today it's Jeep's accounts.
Left work a bit early. Checked in with dad who was in Pennsylvania and heading towards the NY border. I listened to “Life of Christ” the rest of the drive. Just arrived at the Y for tonight's Step class.
Had a good workout at the Y. Got confirmation that dad made it into NY and found a hotel to stay at tonight. Enticed him to get here soon as Haywards Ice Cream has re-opened for the season. «grin» I listened to more of my book while driving home in this foggy rain. It's quite the contrast from this morning when it was sunny and dry.
“If you forgive men their transgressions,
your heavenly Father will forgive you.
But if you do not forgive men,
neither will your Father forgive your transgressions.” — Matthew 6
