Wallace & Gromit: Curse of the Were-Rabbit
Went and saw the new Wallace & Gromit movie tonight. Pretty good, excellent claymation and several adult jokes. Suprisingly, very few people in the theater for opening weekend.
One more day of class.
Update: Looks like we chose well on the movie.
When to get out
Techies often don’t know when to start shopping the resume and cleaning the interview suit, here are some tips (via Slashdot).
SANS Windows Security Training
I’m in Indianapolis for the week, attending a Windows Security class.
We’re across the street from the Convention Center and just down the street from the large downtown mall, so lots of pricey meals within walking distance.
Yesterday leaving a session, I heard the following exchange between two attendees (edited for a “family” site):
Person 1: “You know that piece of crap Access application *she* wrote?”
Person 2: “Yeah”
Person 1: “Someone sent out an email to a bunch of people about it not working, and then my boss replied just to me asking ‘When the hell did we get in the #$%*$*& programming business?'”
Good to know we’re not the only shop with Access craplications…
Funny
Overheard last night: “This is the most I’ve seen of my bellybutton in years!”
The F1 soap opera continues
NASCAR has it’s “silly season”, but F1 has the “contract recognition board”… Jensen Button seems to be staying at BAR after a sizable sum of money was given back to Williams.
So, Button and Barrichello at BAR, Mark Webber and somebody at Williams, Nick Heidfeld and somebody at the new BMW factory team and Schumi and Massa at Ferrari. And 2 fewer cylinders all around and more Bridgestone shod teams.
But still no jag-eww-arr.
New sonos
We had another doctor visit yesterday, so we’ve got more pictures. This is normally the first appointment where they do a sonogram, so the earlier ones were a bonus. For some reason, the little one wouldn’t hold still or roll over, frustrating the sonographer to no end.
“The Alien look”, as the sonographer called it, with a nice view of the spine:
Another eerie image:
Yep, that’s a foot. The little one just kept kicking and punching through the whole procedure.
Another closeup of the head:
Crazy Loans
CNN/Money has a nice article that spells out some of the details of the crazy mortgages available today. “Money” quote:
“I think the creative mortgage structures have been the last puff on the real estate balloon,” says Nick Buss, vice president of market research at PNC Finance. “Consumers were already stretched, and these products have stretched them just a little bit further.”
Pictures from Virginia
Look familiar? (Other pictures)
And, we walked along the beach in Virginia Beach:

Still Alive
We’re still on vacation, the Holiday Inn Express in Newport News didn’t have working internet access, contrary to the “2 Line T1 phones” listed in their ad. (I’ve got the ad, scan will come when I go back to work.)
Maybe I’ll get some pictures up later after we find some food here in Hurricane, WV.
