Wednesday Weirdness
Folks, every ten years, or so, the planets align with the tides of the Fourth House, and ‘ole Tech Paul actually gets to feeling a tad unorthodox. And so, on this day of preparation for many people’s favorite holiday, I have decided to post something a little different, I hope you’ll enjoy.
It is a wee bit premature, but I’d like to ask you to be a little bit more conscientious of those around you today, and please, be safe.
And, yes.. the “shopping madness” is soon to begin, and the roads/malls/parking will be packed. For those of you who are planning to avoid the mobs and do your shopping online (for the so called “Black Friday” deals, etc.) please take a look at my Season’s Reminder (it’s fairly short).
Today’s reading reco: Twitter, Tumblr Become the Latest Fronts in Cyberwar
“The causes may have changed and the weapons may have advanced, but people have waged wars for centuries. In today’s high-tech battles, the barrage of information — or digital warfare — is becoming almost as critical as the salvos of bullets and rockets.” Read more..
Tis the season …

• About Tech Paul
I am a Retired computer & network technician. I used to think the machines were pretty cool. Now I don’t.
They’re anything but.
I regularly posted how-to’s and tricks & tips and general computing advice here starting in 2007. (Use the Search tool to find answers. But be aware, many are rather dated.) Sometimes I answered (your) specific questions in an article if I believed the answer was generally helpful to “everyone”. All the writing you see was my own, typos and all. There always is/was an implied “IMHO” in what you see here.
Note: You are responsible for using this blog and its content. I am in no way liable for any losses caused by user error, viruses and/or other malware, hardware or software failure, or any other conceivable reason.

jotoku,
JH’s untimely passing occurred several years before I discovered Rock N Roll music.. and I am no expert on the subject of R&R.. but I am fairly sure he was a “founding father” of the genre, and I’ve found his “sound” distinct and unique — even to this day.
