This was the first bike ride I went on since my bike was stolen at canisius college back in 2002.

At the end of the ride I tried to write my name in the Jew center parking lot via GPS but unfortunately I had the drop point set to every 16 ft so it just looks all curly. I will have to try again with shorter intervals.

In the last eight years I became quite a bit furrier and tonight I realized furry butt, tight jeans and bike seat aren't a good match. Maybe that's why people wear bike shorts.

The day (e:samathon86) and I revisited the IE clipboard insecurity site I made five years ago. Many IE users are still 100% vulnerable to this stupid exploit and it seems like no one cares. I bet a huge percentage of all IE users are. Basically, it lets a website read your clipboard in Internet Explorer if you don't have your setting set properly. The interesting part is that it allows the site to continue to read it in the background.

In fact I found it to be so extreme as to read the host OS clipboard while IE was running in a VM.

You can use the site to test your browser's vulnerability and turn it off. You are totally safe if you are using a browser besides IE, although I am wondering if flash presents a similar risk. I might check it out more this week.

The Getty in Kenmore had a gas sale for customers who pay cash.

My chinese coworker says he is bringing in chinese squash soup. At first I figured it was just a name for the type of soup but with squash I would recognize so I asked him for some pictures from this site

They are both squashed I have never seen. I makes me wonder what else is out there. He said he didn't know english names for them.

I really hope Apple doesn't go with this new vertical icon placement for the whole OS. It is so ugly and frustrating. It seems especially stupid when it doesn't match the rest of the OS.

Below you can see the difference between safari and itunes.
