I took a week off after the baby, I worked a week from home, and now I’m back to work.  You would think in that time I would have had time to write something.   That I have so much going on that I should be sharing and contributing, giving you information – either the mundane, interesting, or where you think I am on crack.    I do have ideas, just little effort right now.   You could say that my energies are directed at other things, but it’s not really that.   It was only yesterday that I caught up on e-mail from over two weeks ago.   I did manage in the last week to catch back up on my RSS feeds (that was a huge pain and some feeds I just did the blanket mark as read).

So right now I’m taking the rest of the month off.   Yes you may see some twitter comments here or there, you may see me comment somewhere.   This is me digesting information.  Looking into the reflection pond of the interwebs and seeing what echos back.   I do plan on next month gearing back up to speed.    I do hope to do some writing in what is left in this month, but anything I do write will more then likely get put off from being published until next month.   Of course if there is an “OMG WTF” event I may still do an article.   Alone getting this out for now is just enough.   It is enough effort so no one thinks I’ve vanished.  It is enough effort to make it to completion.  It is enough to reach out ot the community that follows and interacts with me.

I’ll see you in two weeks.

My complete and daily online activity for you to go all voyeuristic on.

When I say we are having a baby – I don’t mean in the abstract sense that it’s happening soon.  Literally we are having a baby right now.  This post like most of them I am writing ahead of time, so there will be some details missing.   The one most important is what day is this going to publish?   I’m not sure – the baby is due any day now, I have to be ready to rush out the door.  I am hoping to run by the blog for five seconds to get this alert published.  By the time you are reading this (depending on how quick you do) we should be either on the way to or at the hospital.  When we get home I’ll be putting up a new article with pictures and the whole nine yards.

The signs have started that we are going to be having our child in our arms very soon.  I don’t yet know the weight or length of him.  I don’t know what the time or day of his birth.   He is very close to appearing.  Some part of this since I’m writing this ahead of time reminds me of Linus telling Charlie Brown about the Great Pumpkin, in theory the Great Pumpkin is going to show up, but yet there is no proof.     We are hoping everything goes well, that there is no complications.   Wish us well.

I’ll be giving updates on my twitter feed, so watch that for the latest information.

A few weeks ago I wrote about the NYPD want the ability to turn disable cellphone coverage in the case of a terrorist attack. Now it seems that states and local governments are fighting for their own ability to do that.   In my previous story I pointed how fruitless and ineffective it would truly be during a terrorist attack, I think it’s insane.   The question I have now has anyone thought about how this is a terrorist attack against our own people?

The idea of a terrorist is that they use fear as an attack weapon.   If there is an emergency going on and people can not get through to there loved ones that this wouldn’t inspire fear.   Heck it may scare some people if they can’t send a message about the emergency to Twitter or Facebook.  We’ve all seen enough movies that we are ingrained as a people if hte enemy is going to attack they will cut off our communications so we can not coordinate a counter offensive properly.   This is an of it’s self stupid since something will always get through, example Independence Day and the Morse Code maneuver.  Yet this would scare and dare I say terrorize people since not only would you be scared since you can’t call, no one around you can call and is freaking out also.

This is a sad side effect of living in the era of constant communication, we take it for granted.   When it would be ripped away form us, and we wouldn’t know what is going on, what ideas is that going to put in your mind.  People in the middle america may think a cell tower is down, what if they drive an hour – even the most idiotic person isn’t going to think all the towers are down.   Some people may think since I’m saying that the government has an inadvertant take on an idea that could become a terrorist weapon that I’m a nut job.   I however think this is a fairly obvious look at human psychology.

For all those Trekkies out there (or do you really prefer Trekkers?) Brent Spiner just joined Twitter today.  I looked at who he was following, and there we get Wil Wheaton and LeVar Burton.  So now you can get your Trek on with Twitter.   Go forth and follow – and while you are there you can give a little follow to me also.   Please let me know if you find any other Star Trek performers on twitter and I’ll update this post as necesssary.
