Remember women, only you have awesome breasts. Do your part to support your community by supporting your breasts properly! This message brought to you by The Boob Council. This is your brain, this is your brain looking at boobs. Any questions?

So yesterday I got myself a contract position at a computer security and data forensics company in Newport Beach for $50/hr! They are willing to work with my school schedule it looks like so we will see how this works out. I should be getting the contract paperwork in the next week to overlook.

Had class and lab yesterday, so far so good. Managed to finally grab a copy of Eclipse 3.1 for the PowerBook, now I just need to grab it for my PC as well. Met some of the people in my class also and am starting to network there too, some good things overall. Getting home from UCI at 5PM takes about an hour so next week I think I will give PCH a try and see if its any shorter. If not at least its prettier.

I’ve got a different lunch meeting today with someone who sounds like they want to use me as an assistant or researcher on the side or something to that effect so we will see in about an hour how that goes down. Overall its shaping up to be a good week finally.

Who want to go see War of the Worlds this week btw?

I am also involved in technology & security consulting firms as well as being a freelance technology writer. I also contribute to Jerry Pournelle's website and Chaos Manor Reviews. Additionally I am also a freelance photographer as well and you can find my photos either on my own personal gallery or up at my Flickr account or on Zivity.

This blog is one of the main locations where I do my writing, which is then automatically sent to my LiveJournal, VOX, and MySpace accounts. I can also be found on a variety of social networking and microblogging sites like Pownce, Twitter, Brightkite, Facebook, and LinkedIn.
