http://noroots.blogspot.com/2008/02/ive-kinda-moved.html
How old would you be if you didn't know how old you are? Of late I'm doing more things here: A Restless Mind. Friday, February 29, 2008.

When did this happen? Is this a place I should avoid? Friday, September 30, 2011. Never Buy a Cat. Digital Photo Frames Snob Warning. Network Safety and Monitoring.

No Roots: The Heresy of Free Airwaves
http://noroots.blogspot.com/2008/01/heresy-of-free-airwaves.html
How old would you be if you didn't know how old you are? The Heresy of Free Airwaves. Security guru Bruce Schneier. Did a piece a while back about how his home network is not locked: Steal this Wifi. The bottom line for him is that his computer should be secure on any open network outside the home so why not open the home network? The man has a point. But of course the obvious question is: how do you secure your computer for an open network? My file sharing is turned off. Those who know will not tell me.

No Roots: Never Buy a Cat
http://noroots.blogspot.com/2008/01/never-buy-cat.html
How old would you be if you didn't know how old you are? Never Buy a Cat. There is no need to buy a cat - ever. If you want a cat, get one from the SPCA. In Singapore you can also go to the Cat Welfare Society. Or better still, visit Phyllis' place: Paw Pledge. She is housing over 300 cats rescued from around the island. A number of the cats she houses are listed here. If you like cats but don't feel you can give a home to one right now, then do this:. 2 Give Phyllis a donation towards upkeep.

How old would you be if you didn't know how old you are? Digital Photo Frames Snob Warning. I recently picked up a digital photo frame on an impulse.
