ByMike McBride Reading Time: 1 minute

Everything seems back to normal after Blogger got hacked this morning. While it was out I read about this crap viral spam effort too.

Gee in the little more than a year since I’ve had this site I’ve had a hosting company go out of business, leaving all of their customers in the lurch, my ICQ account was targeted and hacked, the new hosts server was hacked and my site defaced, and Blogger has been hacked twice. Between all of that and the normal virus/spam/spyware/bad software issues I’m beginning to wonder if being online is even worth all of this crap anymore. Maybe I’ll go find a less stressful hobby.

    Angela ordered the Dell Axim X5/400Mhz for my Christmas present. This is pretty much going against my very firmly held belief about all things tech related. That is, never be an early adopter, let someone else be the guinea pig. But in this case, the pricing/specs combination on the Dell PocketPC make it pretty hard…

    Put up some of the pics from today. I went ahead and broke them into two albums, one consisting of Pics from the Beartooth Pass Highway leading into Yellowstone, and another with pics from Yellowstone. Enjoy! I will admit looking at this stuff all day makes me miss work not at all! Follow these topics:…
