No, this isn't about politics or anything like that... it's about something much more important!

I am off AOL and now on Speakeasy DSL. :-D

I haven't written in here in a long time, I guess there's just nothing going on.

Okay, I'm done...

While attempting (and failing, so far) to write a quine (self-replicating program) in REBOL, I figured out one of those "type this, get a funny error" things. The >> is the REBOL prompt.

Hahaha! I have found a new comedy site, MoveOn.org, which has some incredibly funny postings. What's amazing is how these people are capable of writing such rediculous things as if they were actually serious.

I have been reading your replies to "On terrorists", but I have been busy lately, and not in the mood to argue about it.

First, a final note on Maher Arar: if he was offered first to Canada, and they turned him down, the canadians should be to blame. We tried.

About this Iraqi prisoner deal... This incident could barely be considered torture, and the people who did it are being punished, and don't forget... those weren't innocent civilians. They were terrorists and the like. Unlike in the Saddam Hussein system where they would have been innocent people who would truly be tortured, and the actions would be condoned by the government.

I don't usually post political journals, but I ran into an idiot on some forums today who posted a link to some anti-Bush crap, and I replied with this:

(Isn't that a dramatic title?)

I installed BIND on behemoth (my p90), initially as caching-only, and then I added a zone for my LAN. Seems to work well, but it sure doesn't make it easy to tell what's wrong when it doesn't work.

Y'know, I don't think they're putting Kerry's botox in the right place... he's still in every position on every issue.

Did you hear? George W. Bush is going back to school. He's going to learn how to say, "nuclear".

Bill Clinton's going back to school too, but for a different reason. I'd tell you what his motivation is, but that would be below the belt.

Isn't that last one just awful? -JDWTopGuy

Finally! Stats are back. Yay!

A new, smaller version of my .sig name printer is available here. 131 characters. (I removed the #include statement... it will compile without it, at least with GCC.)

Okay, so I'm helping a friend with her computer today. She has the tendency to somehow get a bunch of blank lines in the header of her Word documents, and of course when that happens I have to fix it.

Life without distributed.net stats is horrible.

Anyway, I'm now working on version 2.0 of my C perproxy stats script... it will take the place of the other versions and will do a lot more.
