I am here to listen to people smarter than me talk about #infosec , #technology , #photography & chat about #woodoworking , #infosechobbies, #gardening & #3dprinting. I enjoy working with vintage hand and power tools.

I know mosquitoes have a place in the ecosystem, but dammit I would vote them off the planet if I could

I think I may just retire and become a beach bum

Rajiv,
@Rajiv@infosec.exchange avatar

@jerry That is an absolutely fantastic plan. I often tell my team that might just take up farming, but your plan sounds much better.

Rajiv,
@Rajiv@infosec.exchange avatar

@jerry I am hoping to do exactly that.. hopefully in next 12-18 months. we snagged a 9 acre lot that was previously part of a larger farm. it backs on to a narrow inlet with one of the most beautiful beaches in the area just across the inlet. so combined farming + beach bum career isn't too far from the realm of posibilities. atleast I hope so :)

@jerry that's a lovely color Jerry. You don't also have those orchids that produce vanilla beans...do you?

I am going to start wearing one of those belts like Blaise Pascal did so any time I have a non-Infosec thought, I can hit the belt and stab myself to get back on track

@Rajiv@infosec.exchange avatar

@jerry I would do that Jerry, except I know I will just end up looking like swiss cheese with all those stab wounds and non-infosec thoughts won't stop still 😆

TIL some people believe that hurricanes are made to target Florida.

I guess it makes sense - when it the last time you heard about a hurricane devastating Nebraska?

Today's woodworking wisdom...
If you want to have successful glue up, put on some catchy tunes, singalong & most importantly don't forget to squint while sticking your tongue out as you tighten the clamps. 4 doors and 2 drawers fronts done. Now just 2 more doors and one display panel left. But that's for tomorrow.
And yes, you never have enough clamps!!

My wife and I are talking about downsizing our house. Our kids are grown and I need something before it’s time for the old folks home - but I’ve concluded the new house has to have an atrium for my orchids. I’m also liking the idea of building a house out of shipping containers but my wife is less than enthusiastic about the idea

Rajiv,
@Rajiv@infosec.exchange avatar

@jerry We worked with an architect to lay down our requirements and they helped us by designing a property that has home designed for aging in place & caters for both my hobby ( WWing ) and my wife's hobby ( gardening ). as for your orchids, have you thought of leanto greenhouse?
https://www.bcgreenhouses.com/greenhouses/cross-country/home-attached-greenhouses/

We are seriously looking at their meridian series. can't use their leanto ones because south side of home is going to be walkout.

Good luck designing your forever home.

I skipped lunch today to take some orchid pictures. These are two phal orchids that I picked up at Kroger from the dying/last chance section.

@jerry How many orchids in your collection now Jerry?

So the craziest thing happened today. I went out to lunch because I was not having the happy work day and needed to get away from the house. After lunch, I went to the grocery store next to the restaurant. I don’t know how it happened but when I woke up, I was in my car with Mike’s harder lemonade and some orchids. At least that is the story I’m telling.

@jerry it happens more often than you think Jerry. In my case, I have woken up in my car clutching a vintage handtool or two and no recollection of how that happened.

Awesome pictures BTW.

Look, my family left me home alone for a week. I sometimes have bad ideas enabled by things being far too easy to buy.
