  • Work was bizarre this past week… Some slick intrusion-type hackers were stealthily invited into the corporate network to discern our weaknesses.  They were to have the whole week to wreak their havoc, but I caught them on the first day.  And since detecting intrusions is one of my responsibilities, the early detection was considered a “positive observation” and gave me some mild bragging (resume?) rights.


     


    I can see it coming… Expect to hear either about teenagers getting into an accident while throwing frisbees between cars while driving or vandal-assailants causing an accident by throwing a Frisbee through the open window of a passing car.  The inspiration?  GM’s Summerdrive commercial campaign (TV) that shows drivers of moving cars acrobatically throwing and catching Frisbees back and forth.GM’s gone so far as to offer a virtual online car-throwing Frisbee game where you can try to hit a passing GM.  Yeah, it’s cool.  It might even become a new sport.  Let me know if you see or hear of any stupid copycat exploits.


     




    hrmm...my digital camera betrays it's low res in these pics. I'd love to have a better one.


    11 AM postscript:  I realized this morning (shot was from yesterday) that my lens was dirty.  So I cleaned it and went back for a reshoot this morning.  I also manually pumped up the 'res'.  Any difference??
