Sarah Palin wasn't as bad as I thought she would in the debate tonight. I think Joe Biden did a great job conveying his understanding of the issues, but it was certainly the most interesting VP debate that I have seen.
It probably goes without saying that I find her stances on many issues to be very troubling. Especially on reproductive rights. I would just assume that she never be involved with the executive branch. I'd be fine if we made her an ambassador- perhaps with the Russian Federation? As she has claimed, she has foreign policy experience, based upon her tenure as governor of Alaska.

google transitCategory: life
Something interesting that I just found out is that Google now has a site where you can get transit directions for most cities:
So if you are lost without a car and have web browser capabilities on your cell phone, you might be able to find a way to get home.
I've been doing okay. Some days, better than others. I have been back in Albany for a couple of weeks now. My classes have been interesting, and my job is doing well. II hope all of you are having a great time in Buffalo!

Yeah, I wish they would hurry up and release it for Buffalo! But I suppose its somewhat low on their todo list.

cyber warfareCategory: tech
Apparently, Russia and Georgia is at war. I didn't even knew they were fighting, but I guess its been a long-term conflict that has recently escalated.
The strange thing about is that hackers in the Russian Federation is actively attacking governmental, military, and personal sites in Georgia. Hackers spam the sites to the point where they stopped running. It's considered by some to be cyber warfare.

Such a waste of energies and time. :/
Good to know I have a twin out there! :) Unfortunately, I was not at the Shakespeare at the Park thing. Maybe next time when you are in town!

In my experience/observation, hackers are loyal only to their addiction to breaking into machines and doing immature/destructive things to them. Whenever conflicts (wars, mohammed pictures, whatever) break out, usually these events serve as an excuse for the hackers to take some time out from compromising and screwing up machines in their own countries (and the rest of the world) and compromising machines in the opposing country. The tit-for-tat retaliatory hacking that goes back and forth between countries is almost more a form of competition between hackers of the opposing countries (as opposed to an actual war).

shakespeare in the park!Category: buffalo
Aaron and I are going to see Shakespeare in the Park this Saturday, the 26th. The play is a comedy, "the Merry Wives of Windsor". It is a performance that is free to the public in Delaware Park.
I don't know if anyone is free that night, but if you are interested, it would be awesome to meet up with people there.

Sounds like fun. Have a good time. I am not sure I will be able to make it but I shall try! If I turn up, look for a puny (4"11.something') Indian with a 90 degrees short broom-hair, a crazy grin and an equally crazy YELLOW-ORANGE waistcoat over black T-shirt and nondescript jeans.

I admit I passed out on the debate But from what I saw of it, I was impressed with Palin, I'm not saying I'm a fan of hers but from what I saw she did a pretty good job conveying her self.
Banished to Siberia, I like it.
Regarding making her ambassador to Russia.
OH SNAP!
