Now that was a coy answer ;-)

Change of subject -- did you know we have an enthusiasm in common? Derrick Rose. He was on loan to Memphis for a year before being drafted #1 by the Bulls. Talk about overexceeding expectations. This guy is the real deal, so much so you have to keep reminding yourself he should be a sophomore in college. Everyone in the NBA has fallen in love with him, rookie of the year in a near sweep. (What were they thinking? Doc Rivers asked of the dissenters). I have been watching the NBA for about 40 years and have never seen a guard go to the rim so powerfully. Usually it's not the dunks so much as the 6 inch lay-ins off the glass that take your breath away. You're not supposed to be able to do that in the NBA.

The scary thing is he can get better. He is not an NBA level defender yet and he makes too many turnovers, as he says himself. It's one of the many things I like about him that he recognizes his own weaknesses.

>Ethical hacking is a course taught by New Horizons and it delves into everything. It is an excellent course that will make you paranoider than you were! I am totally convinced now that there is no such thing as a secure computer. Also, I now have 4 dvds full of neat toys, including a ton of viruses... you want one?<g>

>>"Ethical hacking" -- that's one POV, anyway ;-) This would be electronic snooping by government agencies of suspected bad guys?

>>>You sound like me. I think I'm addddddd. I was in a class all last week on "ethical hacking". I had their desktop which had a vnc into another machine, which had a virtual pc running on it. I had my laptop next to the desktop and I was going from one thing to the next, checking email, this place, facebook, oh and the lecture and labs....
