School let out for the summer about 5 hours ago… and D1 is saying that she’s bored!
I bet my kids’ teachers are glad that the school year is over. #lastday
After the break… On July 5th, I will be giving a talk on the @ncnearspace project for the Durham ham radio club, http://t.co/dKbMrRn .
Yogurt for breakfast, hummus for lunch… I think supper is going to be something CHEWY or CRUNCHY!
When forcing me to change my password, please tell me UP FRONT about your restricitions, not after I try something.
Kind of afraid of how the twitterbots might respond to my “big strong hole” comment.
Disappointed with physical design of USB flash drives. Most have tiny holes for a little string. How about a big strong hole for a key ring?
…and circle gets the square!

My first experiment with vlan’s just went ka-plooey, much as I expected (the fact that I’m on twitter right now means it wasn’t TOO bad).
@llorenzin 64-bit version of MyPasswordSafe was crashing on Ubuntu 10.10, KeePassX is more actively maintained.
At my office, they send out emails with a link to a web page with a 2nd link to a PDF file (instead of just saying what they wanted to say).
@nivex There’s a Bruce Schneier joke in there somewhere… [note - he wrote password safe]
Export/import-as-XML and a text editor allowed me to easily migrate my old “password safe” data to “keepass”. Sweet!
Yes, now that you mention it, I *was* the only adult playing “cross the ocean” in the pool (a.k.a. “sharks and minnows”).
Kids missed the bus this morning, so we drove to a coffee shop for a treat and then walked from there to school. #whenlifehandsyoulemons
Wow — heat, humidity and smoke — reminds me of Malaysia.
Playing the completed lighthouse game. Change the light bulb (orange ball) by rolling it up the stripes. http://t.co/BE76j0V
Drat, I was in the mood for a swim, but some kid barfed in the neighborhood pool and now it’s closed.
@nivex Yup, the code’s from the shirt. You may be right. We’ll see… if I have more than 1 follower who’s interested.

Helping D1 build a lighthouse game for school. She designed it. Roll a ping pong ball up the stripes to win.
Celebrating a successful dance show with… ice cream!!
Watching D1 in her dance performance of “Anastasia”… great job!
Sydney - turning energy into noise since 2002.
Score… my kids got me a box of DD “Munchkins” donut holes for Father’s Day!
ambermae .@ncnearspace on the Make blog! — Near space balloon launch today at Mini Maker Faire North Carolina http://t.co/u9bCCvE via @make
Pretty well spent after a long day of @ncnearspace geekery at @MakerFaireNC. We talked to tons of people, launched a balloon & got it back!
ncnearspace The capsule has been retrieved! Landed in a grassy horse pasture. It is intact, camera still snapping and GPS’s still reporting! Woot!

Wife is complaining that the numbers on my paycheck are too small. Hoping she’s referring to the font, and not the amounts.
@nonrecursive Ran across “Clean Up Your Mess”, nice intro, been wondering about “design for programmers” (prog-for-designers is more common)
Words from @dualcoremusic : “I want to be awake when the sun comes up, ‘cause we run our lives, our lives don’t run us.”
I see from my calendar that tomorrow is Flag Day… and it’s also trash day… that juxtaposition just seems wrong.
At South East Linux Fest. Keynote: Jon “Maddog” Hall tells us how free software creates jobs. #SELF2011
Doin’ the needful.
Had a bug in my ear all week, listened to back episodes of podcasts, tracked it down to intro song of Dave’s Lounge #200 (c/o @permanent4) ♫
Really? Anti-spyware/virus is now endorsed by pro football players? Defensive players, of course! http://t.co/S6fkTug
Dear Time Warner Cable, unless you have a permit VISIBLE, it is illegal for you to solicit door-to-door in Cary. Cops are on the way. Thx
Happy IPv6 Day!
