(11:45:24) Deena: Naia just put your boxers on her head and is saying DADDY DADDY

I decided yesterday was going to be the day that I finally cleaned up the computer room, and tried to fix what wasn't working. Step one was to get rid of some extra stuff I wasn't going to use anymore.

I never got past step one.

Cleaned out a good quarter of my computer closet, then went into the garage and continued. End result? A pile of stuff that either is going to goodwill, freecycle, or ebay. Kind of feels like a therapeutic purging - even put some old sentimental stuff in there, as the logical side of my brain tells me that I just won't "get that fixed someday." Among the pile - two guitar amps, a handspring visor, the stinkymeat nikon coolpix, at least 30 sticks of random SIMMs, a mac powerbook 140 (OH baby!), 8 harddrives, 4 cdroms, 6 old mice, 3 misc motherboards, 2 tower cases and 1 1U rackmount, 4 keyboards, and a whole lot of miscellaneous.

I'm keeping my Sears Silvertone and my Mac 8500 though. I don't care what you think.

Been getting a lot of spam slipping through my baysian filters recently, most all of it foreign character sets. Since I can't read these things anyway, the chances of me getting valid email in Chinese is so slim, I'm now filtering all of it into la la land. My inbox is quiet again. All is good.

As I was playing with this, I decided to check out the contents of my spam token database, and see what phrases it considered "most spammy" and "most good". Kinda weird. The #1 spammy phrase in my database appears to be "looking statements". (??)

Some other strange/interesting things: - "fitzpatrick": 76 spam, 52 good (ahahah) - "usr local": 0 spam, 3902 good - "faeriemud": 0 spam, 602 good - "your penis": 1742 spam, 14 good (14 good??) - "tennessee murder": 980 spam, 0 good (???)
