Hello all
Greetings from Seattle.
I am now settled into my AV team here :) It's very cool. I'm doing virus analysis which I am learning about. The term got off to a rocky start but things are starting to pick up now :)
I just bought a bag of Cheetos Crunchy : Flaming hot. These things are so hot and spicy. Good thing there's free drinks here. Seriously, they're so hot. Leora's hotter, but still...damm hot!
Anyhow, now for something funny.
This is from Bruce Schneier's monthly crytogram. It caught my attention cause it's in hebrew but pretty funny.

Security Notes from All Over: Electronic Shackles and
Telephone Communications
The article is in Hebrew, but the security story is funny in any language.
It's about a prisoner who was forced to wear an electronic shackle to
monitor that he did not violate his home arrest. The shackle is pretty
simple: if the suspect leaves the defined detention area, the
electronic shackle signals through the telephone line to the local police.
How do you defeat a system such as this? Just stop paying your phone
bill and wait for the phone company to shut off service.

I can't actually read the story, so I'll have to bug someone who speaks hebrew to read it to me. The summary seems funny though! :)
Back to work I go. :)
