In this episode I also offer my first support for a Linux Festival in the Podcast Review section of the show.  The Indiana Linux Fest will be kicking off their inaugural event on the 25-27 March and I was asked to send out the word.  I have the promo in the podcast and I'll make a special blog post tomorrow with additional details.

Forth instalment of the podcast review segment (I might have to stop counting soon).  I discussed our friends over at The Linux Link Tech Show and talk about the crew over there.

Patriot Act, still?!?!

I know that the Patriot Act has already received it's extension on life with only minor powers added.  I'm releived that the normal extension time of two years was reduced a good deal.

Folks, I think most of you know where I might stand on this issue if you have read my blog at all for the last two years.   I feel that the patriot act and the creation of the Department of Homeland Security were the two worst possible answers to the events of 9/11 than could possibly be imagined.  I have my reasons for this and I didn't write this to debate them at the moment.

I just wanted to take a moment to ask that even if you disagree with me, stop and consider with a critical eye the Patriot Act legistation, why it was created and what purpose it serves today.

If you are one of the free-thinkers who already agrees with me and feel like I'm "preaching to the choir" please take this chance to grab one or both of these posters provided from the ACLU website and put it on your blog, email it to your favorite mailing list or post it in your community bulletin board as your active participation in awareness. 




In my good book the meek inherit nothing because the pigs ate it all.  Don't be one of the silent who lets the world spin on without knowing how YOU felt about the things that happened in your time.  Find your voice for this if nothing else.

Tin Foil Hat Show - Episode 008

Episode 8.  My first "Tech Talk" episode where I will dive into the Trucrypt software.  I do hope that someone out there might actually discover that privacy on a personal computer does still exist and can be accomplished wihtout needing to be an elite hacker or a programmer.  I would be remiss if I didn't confess that I hope to hear feedback on this episode to see how people besides myself use the software in their day-to-day and keep their personal private data secure and way from prying eyes.

Third instalment of the podcast review segment appears in this episode.  I reviewed No Agenda and their political podcast which has it's own unique "tin foil hat" qualities too.

The new episode should be in your favorite podcatcher for download already. If you haven't added me to your podcatcher software, please add the RSS feed on the right.

Tin Foil Hat Show - Episode 007


Episode 7. I had guilt as to my late release, so I made up for it in this and this episode is a little longer than usual.  I'm thinking to bring up some of the topics that didn't make it into the show here in the blog.  But I am also hesitant to do that since I really do want that in the show.  I've more thinking to do on that.

Second podcast review appears in this episode.  I reviewed my other partner in crime at The Fuzion Podcast network K5TUX and his QSK podcast.

Guest Appearance on The Linux Link Tech Show

Hey CafeNinja fans.  Ok, fan.  In November of 2010 I was a guest host on TLLTS Podcast.  Recently I was also a guest and was interviewed on the show.  It ran so long that it got dropped into the TLLTS feed as a single episode.

Feel free to go listen and I would highly recommend you listen to the show and add it to your podcast feed if you haven't already.  They guys there are a lot of fun to listen to, but don't expect them to stay on topic, if you do, you will be disappointed.  If you liked the interview with me be sure to send

Tin Foil Hat Show - Episode 006

Episode 6. I feel this one was strong and I tried to use some of my "big words" when feeling like swearing.   I do think this one was a slightly stronger showing than my last one.  I really am sorry this one was late out, with business travel, holidays and small crisis at home I got delayed a lot more than I had intended.

First podcast review appears in this episode.  I reviewed my partners in crime at The Fuzion Podcast network, that is the boys from Alt3red Egos and their comic book podcast, listen to the show to know what I had to say about them.

The new episode should be in your favorite podcatcher for download by the time you read this. If you haven't added me to your podcatcher software, please add the RSS feed on the right.

The podcast is also available to play directly online at the Fuzion Podcast Network.

Well, it turns out that I can read. I know, who would have thunk? I did a review of "Atlas Shrugged" with Dann Washko from TLLTS (look it up if you don't know). Stranger still is that Dann can read too!

So we were talking it over and decided to do a book review which wasn't really the content for either of our podcasts, so we recorded it and set it up to HPR and it got dropped!!!

If you are interested in hearing what Dann and I had to say then please go listen to the podcast and offer feedback for Dann and I who are actually talking about reviewing other books that we have both read.
