There is nothing wrong with belt AND suspenders when it comes to security. Your position assumes that the belt is near perfect, and that you've got nothing worth looking at if your pants fall down anyway.

Mozilla Dot Party Three Point Fucking Oh!
2000-03-06 10:22:01
Damn! I can't believe it's been TWO YEARS since Netscape released the source code for Navigator at the Mozilla Dot Party on March 31st, 1998. CRAZY!
To celebrate the fantastico party, Mozilla team leader and big FREAK Jamie Zawienski threw a big PARTAY at the Sound Factory, a grodie South-of-Market night club in San Francisco. GRODIE, but big enough to hold the thousands of Free Software advocates, Web digerati types, PARTY PEOPLE and just plain coolio folks that came to the first Mozilla Dot Party.
LAST YEAR, JWZ left the Mozilla Project a few days before Mozilla Dot Party 2 point oh. It was a dark time for Mozillur -- the code was going through some major overhauls, without much visible progress. But it was a GREAT PARTY, anyways! I had a blast! There must have been THIRTY Spock Mountain Research Labs cyberbilly research fellows there, whooping it up and drinking big Spocktails. Beaujolais!
And now this Free Software Webby tradition will CONTINUE with Moziller Dot Party Three Point Oh. Hooray! Mozillur dot party is the BEST PARTY EVER. It's fun, you can DANCE, and there's MOZILLUR SOURCE CODE projected on every available surface. Not only that, but maybe Mozillur M14 will be available by then. Mozillur is getting REALLY GOOD, folks, if you haven't tried it lately.
Anyways, go to Mozillur Dot Party, but don't stand between me and the bar, eh? And if you see someone in a SMRL lab coat, DAMMIT, man, BUY THEM A DRINK! They're doing the research so you don't have to.

WKRP in Cincinnati aired from 1978 through 1982. Howard Hesseman played Dr. Johnny Fever, a DJ from Los Angeles who was fired from his previous job for saying the word "booger" on the air. In the show Hesseman would do some dialogue, introduce a song, and start the song. You'd hear a few notes, but never the whole song. (More...)

Ah, it's that special time of year again. Chestnuts roasting on an open fire, Jack Frost nipping at your nose, crowded, dangerous streets filled with maniac shoppers rushing to the mall to buy Pokemon action figures, and getting hammered at the Xmas party and insulting the boss's hair weave. That's right: it's time to drink heavily and wait out life's little nagging miseries, holiday variety. Pigdog is here to help. (More...)
A Day in the Life of a Beverotologist
It was starting to look like a very boring Saturday, trapped as I was in the suburban wastelands of the outer Bay Area, so I called my Able Assistant (AA) and proposed that we perform some Spocktail field tests. For some time I've been working on creating the quintessential cinematic beverage and even tho' SMRL does most of its testing during nocturnal hours, this seemed an opportune time to roll up the sleeves of our labcoats and get some science done. While the beverotology creation tested this day (The Neurotoxin) must be deemed a success, this article focuses more the journey of the experimenters, rather then the science of beverotology.
