Encryption is the real bitch

I am starting to try and make a machine as secure as possible (van eck excluded) and I have to say its hard

might be a money spinner most people dont want to go through all the hassle of setup of secure laptop and email the UK, USA, french and german military all use MS windows on laptop where a cache of there emails are....

got over girl typical that feb 14 just around the corner

she phones up all I'm not sure about sexuality... l worry a bit about her... she leaves a long phone msg next day she's much happier and taking things day by day.... it then occurs to me that she had sex with new bloke well he must have been better than our fumble (had 3 girls listening in livingroom next door that she fretted over them hearing things so she says no I leave it she demand it back again then freaks out I was already freaked but horny so didnt care next morning all hell....)

I now no longer work for MIPS

sad but true

they hired 2 new guys to replace me after I left (on good terms) as you can see I can type again yeah baby you dont realise how important your hands are until they are put out of action I could not earn money without them !

got toghther with this girl who then claimed to be a lesbian but had never done anything about it she went on a bender and now recovered got a new man, made me feel good I can tell you (if I had said nothing about the fling I had I am not sure what would have happpened)

anyway she's a sweetie but 21 and very 21 (I was confused and away with the fairys at that age)

life is better now but I feel low need to be proactive about jobs!
anyone know anything about becoming a teacher ??
