so I was driving to whidbey island and decided to take the washington ferries system to avoid traffic tickets from speeding and cutting off moronic northwest drivers. as I sat in the line to wait I watched the state troopers do this lame scan for security on the cars, mind you he was a K9 cop but the K9 must have been napping he wasnt there. So as I do now-a-days I have my radios up and running listening to the communications traffic for the state employees. As we are floating down the sound I hear on the radio, “uhm there is a silver honda with no operator that has its engine running.” immedatly I hear a overhead page “will the owner of the silver honda return to the deck and shut off your engine” then  about 4 mins later,  over the radio I hear “she showed up”

hello WSF! Im sure that this is a common occurrence however I dont see why the government has all the new anti-terror security waste of cash to just let a car sit running. didn't anyone see deja vu? wouldn't it be totally acceptable to leave the car running as a power source for a bomb? Shouldn't this scream security protocol #2456–A and everyone would go into action and there would be a “hut hut hut” noise and a sniffing dog? no just a overhead page, the WSP and dogs are there to catch pot from Canada, and people who are tired of the ‘matrix’, they just get arrested for telling the cattle they arnt cattle.

meanwhile if your caught leaving a bag or box on the WSF you will be arrested so please dont, as for cars its ok.

Comment from blog: Security Matters Wired Mag

This was a good post to read, Mr Schneier makes a very valid point here about how life is mostly full of ‘BS’ about how a terror can happen everywhere. I personally am getting tired of all this small crap like the lady who had a baby bottle, I question how long until people just get fed up and stop wondering like cattle thru the gates of government.

Now you have a bunch of people “scared” about some brown man blowing up everything, to justify spending another dollar to prevent American's from having ‘the good old days’ – remember the day when we could bring our own booze onto a airplane so we didn't have to pay $10 a shot?

sigh.. 10 years from now is gonna suck. some point the government controls of the EU make it just as much as a pain as here, ironic when people flee back.

Im not saying hack a hotel for porn. But I will say you can hack it for free pay per view hbo movies they have. BYOTV (bring your own tv) poor Marriott, you must not enjoy the web. I dont know what's worse people that pay for porn. or that people actually watch hotel porn. yuck.

is hackable - thats funny. if this gets fixed basically your able to just enter a alert message into the url and have it pop up at the site. Only a laugh because the page is how to prevent this crap.

this site get grandpas files will help you write letters to make some paper pusher mail you back FBI records of dead people. Most interesting is the fact that you can just prove someone is dead  no reference that you must be related. So you have a neighbor that died years ago and you can drum up some information on him or find on wikipedia that he is dead? better yet, you happen to come across a death record in the trash? find out if they were dooin bad things. Or just mail letters off and see what happens.

I was browsing a pile of stuff in my room the other day to come across a package of sea-monkeys, I was reading the back of the package about a 2 year guarantee they have on those brine shrimp. The guarantee states that if you mail one dollar to the address shown they will replace your seeds for free (minus the handling of course) At no time the notice states that you must provide proof of purchase of the original monkey pack. So it stands to reason that if you mail one dollar you get what they state is a six dollar value. So I investigated sea monkey guarantee on line turns out they have the same deal on line however you must mail three dollars. The online version also states that you get some free literature about the monkeys. Im not saying that anyone should exploit the financial stability of the brine shrimp business, but its a good example of what you can find if you bend rules. So its up to you, pay 1–3 dollars and see what they mail back to you. Or buy it in the store.

this is something way cool that isn't available to hacker-kiddys yet. using a tool like cache dump you can then use the hash you get to ‘run-as’ the hash user. then I can run as the user on the computer or network. this means that you don't need a Hash Table and it don't matter if its 127 character password or NT hash.

must find this code. – Msvctl

Update: I did my research on this and you can find tools that will show this by using the term “Passing the hash” I will detail more once I have more of a way to fix it. in a windows environment. I will also blog more once I have a good set of tools to show it off.

update: there is a copy of winexe that can be patched to pass hash and it works. I will not detail until later date but I can confirm it works the same as the blog link here.

never have I gotten a email as good as this.

“Kelly, I have a non-work related question and you may know the answer. I have guitar hero 2 for the xbox 360 and I am trying to use one of the cheat codes I found online to unlock all of the songs but can not get it to work. Do you know or heard of anyone that has been able to unlock all of the songs for the 360?

Thanks”

As I see this a valid question, that any self respecting person would be able to take time to answer I did, the following appears to confirm working from a message board I found.
