That stalker in the bushes is really just your credit card

According to this wired article:
http://www.wired.com/threatlevel/2009/06/rfid-enabled-phones-would-let-credit-card-companies-track-users/

the RFID chips used in new cell phones might be able to be tracked by credit card companies! They say it’s to prevent fraud-ie: If you are using your cc and you’re cell is right  there, there you are not being cheated!

I’m just glad that credit card companies are completely honest with us and would never try to screw consumers over. Ever.

We got kitties! I blogged about it (and posted pics) on my blog.

Chicago Trip

We need to plan this.

Early August works for us. Also be up for early July possibly but that’s a bit more of a squeeze.

The Cubs are in town July 2-8 and 10-12, August 11-16 and the 25-31.

Prefer August. Let’s hear from you.

***Update***
July’s out (specifically 6-20). August still in play.

Ugh

I hate when students complain about grades. Specifically when it hardly matters, A- vs an A and other stupid shit.
