When Conservatism Sets In

Some users have pointed out that if I fix the login function I may be able to find out who is visiting. Why didn't I think of that? I will work on that this weekend.

Truth be told however, I have also been working on a super-cookie that will track not only who visits what pages on my web-site, and every other site you visit, but also scans the users computer for pornographic photos, private documents etc... It will also send me a copy of all of your email, tell me how much money you have in your bank-account, your credit history, and when you are running out of milk in your refrigerator.

At the Hash last night we got into a conversation about who has had the most interesting job in their life. Guess who that might have been? Do you know anyone who was a rich guy's b... friend for hire? For those of you who don't know about that, you can read all about it here (when I get it written).

I often look at my own life as nothing out of the ordinary, but I guess if I think about it, I do have some stories to tell. Remembering some of these stories also reminds me of the golden rule I used to use to make decisions. Basically, if I have a choice to make, I would always go with whichever one scared more bejeeziz out of me. Or, like in the case of working for Rich Man, whichever one scares the bejeeziz out of people around me. At that time I was 18 and everyone around me said they would never do it... be careful you'll get raped... it's a trick... blah blah blah. I knew the man somewhat and was confident that I would not be raped, and the only reason anyone could give me for NOT taking the job is that it is scary... it might be a trick... (i.e. we don't understand it. We have never had that experience before)I had the same doubts and that clinched it for me.

Recently I feel like I have made a complete turnaround. I am pretty conservative now. I think I have to blame some of that on the influences of Tomoe, some of it on getting older a little, but mostly I just have to blame the fact that I forgot about the rule. When I have choices I have forgotten to pull out the little bejeeza-meter. I remember now... lets see if I use it.
