First let me apologize if anyone received any unsavory messages coming from my account. It seems as if someone figured out my password and had performed some actions using my account. I've changed my password to something that is hopefully a little more secure. This is the world we live in today. Cracked, leaked, or socially engineered passwords are going to happen to just about...

And for those that are reading this and it happens to be your birthday too, happy birthday to you too! Hope you had a blast!

Here I am. About 9 months after completing that cybersecurity bootcamp I mentioned in a previous post. I'm CompTIA CySA+ certified and can't manage to land a job. Given I paused my search for about 2 months last year. I feel like the bootcamp oversold the job market I'd be trying to enter. Yes there is a huge demand for cybersecurity professionals. However all the...

I've been up to some monkey business. I'm two months into a six month cyber security "bootcamp". When people ask what I'm learning I jokingly say I'm learning how to be a l33t haXX0r. But really I'm learning how to be a entry level security analyist. I'll hopefully be able monitor a companies network to prevent haXX0rs from getting in. But if they do, clean...

I had a dream a few nights ago which by itself is somewhat noteworthy. I don't have many dreams because I often don't sleep deep enough to have them but that's a topic for another episode. In this dream my ex girlfriend found me and wanted to talk. We'll call her B. From what I can remember we were already talking and the conversation must...

Driving on the "wrong" side of the road in a right hand drive car was an adventure. Then throw in traffic circles and dodgy navigation makes for a good time every time we hit the road. I...

I've been volunteering for a little while for the San Diego Museum of Man on the PostSecret street team. While I was working one event I snuck in a postcard of my own. And I've since added in other postcards. But that first one was particularly personal. Only one other person knows this secret. Lo and behold on opening night I saw my secret was...

I got a wild hair up my ass yesterday and saw that a tattoo shop was doing Star Wars tattoos for $20, $40, $60. I thought what better day than May the 4th to get a small $20 Star Wars tattoo that wouldn't take long. $100 and an hour and a half later this is what I got. It's been a long time since I...

So I've been volunteering for the San Diego Museum of Man since the end of September of last year. In particular I've been working on the Postsecret street team. We have been popping up all over the county trying to collect secret postcards from San Diegians. Today I got to work behind the scenes and I photographed and logged about a hundred postcards that were...

Recently restarted my SG membership here and went looking back through all my old posts. Coincidentally it was a little over 10 years ago that I made my first post. Some blathering on about getting rid of a black box of no posts. I read through all my posts mostly my musings on things or what was going on at that point in time. There...
