Blue Hat, Blueprints and Something Not Blue

I. Not Enough Software Diplomacy? II. When Things Don't Go as Planned III. Guide to Easy Money, Guide #20938457 I. Not Enough Software Diplomacy? Since I graduated from Micorosoft Ambassadorship a few days ago, I want to know what's next. I just sent my CV to Rose for Phase III. Is there anything else besides waiting? I just found out about Fedora Ambassadors and there's only one guy in SE Asia. "Fedora Core Ambassador" sounds better though. I think this is better because the open-source community is somewhere I belong more than the MS developer community. I can't even develop for shit with any MS language. I had second thoughts on enrolling in .NET courses and sell my soul to the proprietary (this is such an overused word) world. In other FC news, Fedora Core 5, code-named "Bordeaux", has been released. On another note, Playboy.com shows support to the open-source community by mirroring FC5, check out http://mirrors.playboy.com/fedora/5 (SFW, I promise). II. When Things Don't Go as Planned They must be running out of money. I just got this in my mail.

Your Streamload account now has 25 GBs of free online storage. We upgraded your Streamload account, free of charge, to give you more storage and more freedom to manage your digital lifestyle. We encourage you to sign in and use your free 25 GBs. That's 2.5 times larger than the free 10 GB you received when you signed up! You can now share, send, organize, and backup your files like never before. We'd like to invite you back to Streamload.
Why? I already have unlimited storage and anybody can see my clips without any limit on my side or my viewers on YouTube and other similar sites. To the pricks behind this "service", I suggest that you think of a better business model. In this world filled with freeloaders like me (like in your "free" plan), I will never settle for something that I have to pay for when there's a free and better alternative. I won't be surprised if they close down in a few months. It's 25GB of space with a limited bandwidth of 100MB/month. Funny, I thought it was junkmail before I opened it. III. Guide to Easy Money, Guide #20938457 If I were an American, I'd visit Enchanted Kingdom then rush to the courts and sue them for damages, and I'd like a large lump of cash for that. Sir Pat writes an interestring entry about the "threats" on the fireworks display at the said theme park, read here.

Sir,

You could just walk from Walter Mart. Enchanted Kingdom sucks. Expensive food, long lines, and boring rides. No new rides or attractions since the last two to three years.
