I hate security…
So, I need to get a card out of some routers in my storage unit…but we do not seem to have the key. The lock is also one of those crazy security locks that does not allow you to access the bolt with cutters. It sucks! This is also the reason I hate network security, firewalls and information assurance personnel. Security just slows you down and prevents you from doing all the super fun stuff you want to do. Or, even better, they tell you to fill out a ton of paperwork and then tell...
Read MoreAwesome Adventure Weekend 2010 – Update #1
UPDATE: This is an old post I wrote but due to technical issues I was never able to post. Hello All, I am stuck in beautiful (joke) Minneapolis, MN while I await the arrival of Shane Lott.

It gets hot during the day but it...

As you can see here in the right column I have created a countdown timer running up till I return to NOLA. Time is clicking by! As you can see from the picture our living accommodations ROCK! I love our M*A*S*H era tent. It is just me and two of my friends from back in the day just camping...
Read MoreThe Afghanistan Journals Vol 5.9 – Getting There is Half the Fun! (Part 1)
I have made it “half way” through my journey into Afghanistan. My first stop is beautiful Al Udied Air Base in Qatar! I have never been to Qatar for any length of time and am finding it to be quite nice. Let me catch you up on my trip thus far… Tiffany dropped me off at the airport in NOLA on Friday and I jumped on a plane to DC. I transferred to Qatar Airways and let me tell you…those planes are awesome! The movie, TV and music selection was awesome and the...
