Musta seen Three Kings recently:
My name is Eric Joseph, I am an American soldier, I am serving in the military of the 1st Armored Division in Iraq, As you know we invade Saddam Hussien’s Home earlier in 2004,We were able to move funds belonging to Saddam Hussien’s family But we did not disclose the sum of US$25Million Dollars. We want to move this money to you, so that you may invest it for us and keep our share for banking.We have been unable to ship the consignment all this while,due to the Insurgent attacks we witness daily.We had made adequate arrangement for the cosingment to be ship since the war is partially Over.We plan on using diplomatic courier and shipping the money out in one large silver box, using diplomatic immunity.If you are interested I will send you the full details, my job is to find a good partner that we can trust and that will assist us. Can I trust you? When you receive this letter,kindly send me an e-mail signifying your interest including your most confidential telephone/fax numbers for quick communication also your contact details. This business is risk free. The box can be shipped out in 48hrs.Respectfully, Sgt.Eric Joseph

- thunderbird still does not spell check the subject of emails.
- thunderbird spell check is the worst at finding the correct options
- mac mini’s have a STUPID cd eject button that confuses everyone I know that has one (3 different computer users).
- HP All in One printers suck and will do crazy things on the mac then point you to do some voodoo to fix it. Try to imagine how fun this is going to be to talk my grandfather through all these steps.
- Computers suck… you stare at them all day making your eyes get worse. If you install software to force you to take a break you go crazy having to pause for 10 seconds ever 10 minutes.
- QT4Java sucks. Apple’s docs suck.

After a long while of doing nothing on Mnet, I’m getting the p2p itch again. It’s funny how some projects you just run out of the urge to keep working on them.
First thing I’ve done is get mnetproject.org back up and running. Not sure what do to about the sf.net version, but I haven’t seen a lot of activity there either.
I’m on IRC again, #mnet. I still am not happy with the chump bot. I think I would blog more via chump if it was working well.
So, on to the code. When we last left, Mnet 0.7 could publish and download files using “mnet” URI’s. It used it’s own protocol, EGTP, which used TCP and a custom encryption protocol to communicate between nodes. No anonymity was attempted. I was working on a search engine, then planning on moving to reworking the GUI.
Right now I’d rather work on Mnet over I2P via Simple Anonymous Messaging . I don’t know if I’ll do this as a egtp protocol or just remove egtp and replace it with a twisted port of SAM.
