It seems to be snowing in the City of Victoria... Which is doubly bad when you live in the coldest house in the known universe! At least the flood in the basement will freeze over, allowing the first annual 2377 Central Ave indoor basement hockey championship! (So much for starting a basement grow-op...)

Security Theatre
Here is a good article from Bruce Schneier talking about the ease at which airport security checkpoints can be circumvented using a fake boarding pass. I recently flew for the first time since the "liquid explosion" scare, and can attest to the inanity of the TSA and its employees; Airport security is a massive exercise in bureaucratic security theatre, and does nothing to actually improve the security of flying. If my shampoo is explosive, how does placing it in a clear one-quart ziplock bag eliminate the threat to other passengers?
