Loud Sky.

Early this morning i heard a plesent sound. A summer shower. Then when i left to go to work it was all dry again. While on my way to work I was noticing the heavy gray coulds hanging high above head. When I was noticing those clouds they flashed at me. Moments later the thunder was heard. For next few blocks I'd catch indecernable flash in the sky and wait to hear the thunder that followed. The last clap of thunder I heard brought with it a slight drissel. If you turned and faced the northen sky you could see where the clouds ended and a beautiful blue sky. It was a nice walk to work this morning.

Well unlike yesterday there is some news that slightly excites me. IBM has managed to gotten linux certifyed with the common security creiteria. This means the goverment can now look at using linux. The only other OS that i know of to have passed this test is Windows NT 4.0 which is only secure if you leave it in the middle of a room with nothing pluged in to it, it's a mystery how it passed to many as flaws are still being discovered. Linux passed with the highest possible rating.

Also Redhat is building a legal fund up to go sue SCO to prove that they are clear of any intelectualy propterty violations.

Some other random stuff too but I won't bore you with any more.

I've got an idea for another page or two that I may or may not put togther. As usual I'm taking sugestions, comments, ideas, rants, raves, complaints and everything else.
