GaMeOvEr's blog: "thoughts"

Friends are special people. We can't pick our family and we're surely limited in the number of them at any rate. socially and Morals(and often our own Conscience ) dictate we select a single mate. But our friends can be diverse and iniginite as adjectives we choose. Our friends in a very real sense, reflect the choices we make in life.

Paradoxically, we fail to disclose ourselves to other people because we want so much to be loved. Because we feel that way we present ourselves as someone we think can be loved and accepted, and we conceal whatever would mar that image." "Another reason we hide is to protect ourselves from change. . . Still another reason we don't disclose ourselves is that we were never taught how. . . Personal ambitions and economic pressures also give us powerful reasons for concealing what we really are. . . All of us hide behind the iron curtain of our public selves. . . Men hide what prevents them from seeming strong and masculine. . ." "Disclosure is so important (because) without it we really cannot know ourselves. Or to put it another way, we learn to deceive ourselves while we are trying to deceive others. For example, if I never express my sorrow, my love, my joy, I'll smother those feelings in myself until I almost forget they were once part of me.

If we want to be loved, we must disclose ourselves. If we want to love someone, he must permit us to know him. This would seem to be obvious. Yet most of us spend a great part of our lives thinking up ways to avoid becoming known." "Indeed, much of human life is best described as impersonation. We are role players, every one of us. We say that we feel things we do not feel. We say things we did not do. We say that we believe things we do not believe. We pretend that we are loving when we are full of hostility. We pretend that we are calm and indifferent when we are actually trembling with anxiety and fear." "Of course we cannot tell even the people we know and love everything we think or feel. But our mistakes are nearly always in the other direction. Even in families -- good families -- people wear masks a great deal of the time.

Last night I fell asleep on the couch in my living room and apparently left the TV on while I slept and this morning I was awoken by the sound of a bleating of a cow as if it was shot in the face and was waiting to die.. But as I opened my eyes I found out that it was just Rosie O'Donnell and her cackling hen posse known as the women of The View. We all know that Rosie has been in the news lately about a bunch of different things, from her feud with the Donald, to her fight with depression. This morning she had the nerve to say stuff about how prisoners at Guantanamo Bay are being tortured to give confessions and how it "hurts their civil liberties." I was so pissed off about this that I actually decided to write a letter to ABC (the company that produces the view and airs it) and to Rosie herself. Before I get to send it off I thought I'd let you read it on here. Dear Rosie, I'm writing this to tell you how much I hate your guts. Now I personally don't know you and I doubt that you'd would because I'm male, but that's besides the point. I'm writing this letter to tell you that I think you were extremely wrong about what you said about the prisoners at Guantanamo Bay ,Cuba. The people who are imprisoned there have proven in the past to have ties with terrorists and I think you are wrong to say that we impede on their civil liberties by extracting information that we need to possibly stop another terrorist act on this country. I know that you are a New Yorker, and if you want another 9/11, then I guess we should give these people who've conspired to kill Americans all over the world such liberties as free speech while in prison, which is something we don't even do to our own prisoners. Besides, most of the people in prison there wouldn't even have the ability to speak their minds in their own country because of their lack of liberties, and you complain about it. I think you better check out your facts before you open your mouth. You also compared Gitmo to Abu Graib in Iraq. Now I don't know if you came to that comparison while doing an imitation of a giant Brazilian Lesbian Fruit Bat hanging upside down, but Abu Graib was an isolated incident. Granted what they did was not in military decorum, but I bet it sure was fun. I bet you can't tell me that you and Kelly don't run around in black hoods in the bedroom, where you tuck your package away between your legs like the guy from Silence of the Lambs. Look, I know you have depression. But as someone who knows the symptoms of that disease, you are doing the wrong thing by lashing out at people who you think are inferior to the all mighty liberal lesbian agenda you have in mind. Personally I think you need to visit a psychologist who can help you with the depression and stop taking it out on people such as Donald Trump. Like my grandmother once told me, " If you don't like what's going on, just leave." Rosie, the express train is coming.. I suggest you take it.. One man to another, I think it's heading to Iraq and here's your first class ticket… Someone who hopes you actually read the first amendment.. S.V.M. P.S. I did Kelly before you did… She gives good head, but you know that already…

When someone says the word Hacker, what is the first thing that pops into most people's heads? Viruses, identity theft, stolen credit card numbers, crashed web sites, or worse. When someone says "hacker" to me I think of the pursuit of knowledge. I know that, already someone reading this will sigh and not pay attention to anything else that I write. This, in my opinion, is directly the fault of the media and the government. Now, before making any judgments, I am not an anarchist and I love my country. When something goes wrong with a computer people think of hackers. Why is this so? When computers started making a major impact on our lives, people realized that there was money to be made in cyber-crime. Being humans we need to label these people. The media got a hold of the term hacker and, not fully knowing what it meant, used it to identify the bad guys. Yes hackers do break into web servers, write viruses, invade privacy, and generally do "bad" things. Most of the things that hackers do are, in fact, illegal. This is not being written to defend the legality of hacking or the hacker lifestyle, but to explain the reasons for hacking and the usefulness. Why do hackers do what they do? They do it for fun, adrenaline, and mainly to learn. Hackers do not steal credit card numbers, they do not crash web sites or servers (on purpose), and they have no more negative effect on the internet than a thirteen year old writing bad words in his blog. Hackers have a whole other language and in this language there are names for these cyber-havoc causing individuals: Crackers, Lamers, and Script Kiddiez. Crackers, for the most part, pirate software. They reverse engineer software to find ways around paying for it. Most of them give the information to the cyber community, and some sell the info. Lamers are usually responsible for crashed web sites, viruses, and stolen information. In the hacker world, lamers are basically the ones trying to be "cool." They aren't good enough, nor do they have the mind state to be l33t. l33t is hacker lingo for elite, the top guns of the hacking world. Even lower on the electronic food chain are Script Kiddiez. These are the people that use software and Trojan viruses to "hack" a computer. Script Kiddiez, although they don't know much about hacking, can be the most dangerous. They are dangerous for the simple fact that they don't know what they are doing and they play around in other computers and end up destroying data. There are different kinds of l33t hackers. Black-Hat, Grey-Hat, and White-Hat. Basically, Black-Hat hackers do the illegal stuff, White-Hat hackers protect against the Black-Hats and Grey-Hats, they do a little of both. White, at work for money, and Black, at home for fun. What the media doesn't talk about, and therefore what most people don't know, is that ninety percent of the anti-virus, anti-hacker, and anti-spyware software is written by hackers. The operating systems people use are also written by hackers. In the late seventies, a hacker by the name of Captain Crunch discovered that a toy whistle, which he got out of a box of cereal, emitted the same frequency (2600 MHz) that Pacific Bell used to authorize long distance phone calls. He was later arrested and served prison time. Kevin Mitnick, after a long stretch of credit card fraud, was arrested and served many years in prison. A thirteen year old boy hacked the New York Stock Exchange. Being a minor, he was sentenced to house arrest and is never allowed to access a PC again. Bill Gates, perhaps the most well known hacker ever, helped to create, and then took full credit for the Windows operating system. He is now one of the richest men on the planet. Before people pass judgment on hackers, they first need to learn all of the facts, and then realize that they are using software, written by hackers, to protect their operating systems (that are written by hackers) against viruses and attacks from lamers, crackers and script kiddiez. Not hackers. Hackers hack to learn and to keep the hacker ethic alive. Information wants to be free
