    crossposted from irc (slightly cleaned up)
    [paul] guys
    [paul] when I was young
    [paul] we trespassed regularly into a shipyard
    [name_redacted] where?
    [dj_doughy] ...
    [paul] interestingly, one my friend's brother was killed in due to reckless behavior on his part doing the exact same thing
    [paul] so anyway
    [name_redacted] paul: oh.
    [paul] we found a tugboat in drydock
    [paul] inside the fore hatch where the beds were
    [paul] we found a huge stash of the nastiest porn ever
    [paul] well, at least we thought when we were 12
    [niteshad1] The tug was abandoned in dry dock?
    [paul] it was hustler and penthouse
    [paul] not exactly abandoned
    [paul] this was an operating shipyard
    [niteshad1] OK, my mistake.
    [paul] but anyway, we also did massively stupid shit there
    [paul] like the time we went on the piles of rock salt they had deposited there
    [paul] there were tarps, held on with tires
    [paul] it was wet
    [name_redacted] thanks to the local BBS scene the first time i saw hardcore porn in print it was nothing new
    [paul] I curled up in a ball in my nylon windbreaker and slid down it
    [paul] getting a leg caught in one of the ropes on the way
    [name_redacted] my dad has a photo of kids sledding on asbestos piles at a mine in summer time
    [paul] causing me to begin to fall/roll down the rock salt
    [paul] my glasses flew about 15 feet and I landed face down in a puddle
    [paul] everything tasted like salt for a week
    [jeff] cute
    [name_redacted] when i was little i would pick rock salt up off the sidewalk and eat it at school
    [paul] anyway guys I miss adventure
    [paul] :)
    [name_redacted] i'd get horrible headaches for some reason
    [paul] but i do like food tasting not like rock salt
    [paul] I guess what I'm trying to say is last night was awesome for those who were there
    [paul] also, sailors like porn
    [dj_doughy] I LIKE PR0N
    [paul] alsoalso, the year I moved away from my hometown, another friend of mine was killed invading that same property
    [paul] so I guess the lesson here for us all is that shipyards can be dangerous if you're committing criminal trespass

    The shipyard mentioned isn't just a shipyard, it's also the dock for a company that ships large amounts of sand, salt, and other things. If you grew up where I did, you probably know exactly where I'm talking about.

    Now you know something interesting about me (and my mom is probably like "oh holy shit" but hey, I'm older now, right? :) )

    I would have gotten more sleep at HOPE
    But I think I had more fun this weekend than I would have there. This weekend's mischief was really my style.

    More detail as the digital media hits the disk and gets sorted in to two categories:

    Incriminating and Not. ;-)

    (and not the same sort of incriminating as 2003, if anyone is confused)

    spam has been particularly heinous
    psyduck:/home/paul# grep "result: Y" /var/log/mail.log|wc -l
    21440
    I've rejected 21440 spams on my BACKUP MX so far today
    oh my god

    Point of reference: my employer's mail relays blocked 2,100 spams across all the servers combined, and they have more active mail accounts than I do. Something weird is happening.
    Saturday, 12 July, 2008
    2:37 - 12 July 2008
    I just got a pile of emails about 2 hours ago. I got 13,000 new telephone numbers for use at work.

    It seems too easy.

    But pretty neat?
