DDT WWE

Is the WWE still worth watching? Everytime I have tried to watch over the last several months I get bored. Every now and then a diva match will peak my interest. Other than that I just can't get into it.

I used to rent all the PPVs and go to the live events when The Rock, Stone Cold and HHH were at the top of their games. Even getting to see Golberg and Ric Flair in a small house show was exciting back then.

So I guess the Attitude era will never be again. I hope they can come up with something so I can become a hardcore fan once again.

Blogging for introverts

I'm pretty sure I'm considered an introvert and this blogging stuff is not coming as easy as I thought it would. I just don't feel the need to communicate all the time.

But then I found this post:

There might be hope for me yet.

Just a little patience - motivational quote

"A man watches his pear tree, day after day, impatient for the ripening of the fruit. Let him attempt to force the process, and he may spoil both the fruit and tree. But let him patiently wait, and the ripe pear, at length, falls into his lap."
-- Abraham Lincoln, 16th President of the United States

I want one of these! I can see us using these at work. A few of us (2) have iPads. I sometimes don't even bring it to work. But I always have my BlackBerry with me. What does everyone else think?

iPad Competition?

RIM today took the wraps off its BlackBerry PlayBook, and the rumor mill churn became a reality: A BlackBerry tablet is on its way. It's not due out until early 2011, but for now, it's the talk of the town.

Proposed mandate gives government right to view encrypted messages

Internet privacy advocates wait in anticipation as the U.S. government is preparing new Internet rules aimed at improving its ability to wiretap criminal and terrorism suspects, a policy group says. James X. Dempsey of the Center for Democracy and Technology told The New York Times the proposed changes have "huge implications" and challenge the "fundamental elements of the Internet revolution."
Federal law enforcement and national security officials want Congress to require all services that enable communications to be technically capable of complying if served with a wiretap order.
The mandate includes being able to intercept and unscramble encrypted messages.
