“We have a mode for people like you.”

Quote is from an evening of geeking out and a zsh’er responding to the fact that I use bash. I’ve been promised a corresponding T-shirt.

It’s BSDcan 2006 time! Dan Langille organized the first BSDcan 3 years ago, obsentively, I believe, to provide an affordable, North American alternative to BSDcon. It’s at Ottawa University.

Today was the start of the tutorials, the conference proper begins on Friday. I attended the Firewalling with PF tutorial this afternoon; it wasn’t as advanced as I’d hoped it to be, but it was a good presentation – I learned about the antispoof function. 🙂

Afterwards, Peter and I went to the Royal Oak to chill, and shortly thereafter, Marius, Diane (Dee-Anne), Jonathan & Matt materialized – and so began an evening of geeking. Incidentally, Deanna has the Shure E2c headphones… I certainly checked those out.

Oh and Marius a vegan. Who knew? They do exist. And I thought nightshade was deprived…

Then Jonathan showed me what can be done with Photo Booth…

Marius and Jon. Jon is not normal.
He has three big teeth.
And a symmetrical face.
We forgot to give him colour.
I may be a little blue.
But am I not dazzling?

And Ottawa U’s parking lot stole my Element. Their parking garage closes at 6PM. WTF? And there’s no contact info posted anywhere either, so I didn’t even know if I could call security to get my car back. Dad actuallyw as kind enough to come pick me up! Thanks Dad!
