Obviously I’ve moved my header from Shadowscope. I am going to be putting a new one over there more related to the subject of what I’ve been blogging about there. You know, dead people, trailer trash, meth heads. All I have to do is go to work and shoot some photos and post ’em. bwahaha.
Unfortunately I’m not fucking kidding.
Sorry I haven’t put a post up since Helen other than the tramp stamps, although the last two have been nice at least. Need to find a good thong picture for Thursday I guess.
I just received an email from an adoring reader at Shadowscope. hee. Check this out.

Do you ever think that for one moment or one day you could ever write a blog without swearing? Try it. Try to be classy for once. You might just get your message across.
Disgusted by your language.

Well fuck you very much you fucking slut. Thanks for the email Dianne. Did you ever try a day NOT reading it if you were disgusted?
Actually she does have a point though, which is one of the reasons I moved this crap over here and left the Crime Blogging at Shadowscope. I wanted some semblance of ‘professionalism’ over there. It’s hard though some days not cursing about some of the scumbags I write about there.
I wanted to get on and bitch about what a hard week I have had since getting back from vacation but I think I’ll save that for tomorrow provided I make it home before midnight.

    If you have used computers for any length of time, think about how many companies you know of that have been around for over a decade. I'm not talking about companies like Microsoft or Apple or even any of the application companies like Intuit. All of them have proven histories of course but I'm talking about the smaller guys, in this case PKWare. I've been using their products since the early nineties, most specifically PKZip for DOS and then Windows. They have really come a long way over the last 22 years since they were founded. PKZip was a must-have for old BBS system operators like myself back in the days before the World Wide Web came along and even now Zip is the standard for compression amongst most PC users. Linux fans will take issue with this and while I also like running Linux and use GZip compression Zip is much more well known.

Anyway, on to the reason for the post. PKWare is giving away a free non-commercial license for SecureZIP Express for anyone to download and you can also win some pretty cool prizes in the Decrypt and Drive contest such as a Honda Scooter, bicycles, a Nintendo Wii and Mario Kart for the Wii, gas cards and iTunes gift cards. You can play the game daily in order to try and win one of the great prizes but it needs to be on the computer that you have installed SecureZIP Express and the digital certificate.

To enter the giveaway you need to download SecureZIP Express at www.securezip.com and then go to www.DecryptandDrive.com to register.

One of the really cool things about using SecureZIP Express is that you can compress and encrypt your files using a digital certificate so that whoever the file was encrypted for doesn’t need a password. It’s a nice way to carry around files on an SD card or USB drive. Remember the old days of carrying around files on floppy? Thank goodness those are gone 🙂

Anyway, head on over and download SecureZIP and enter to win their giveaway.
