My girlfirend likes to do these puzzles called Pic-A-Pix from ConceptisPuzzles.
They use a matrix of numbers to hint the puzzler to to filling in pixels to create pixel art. Sometimes there is color. Every week four new PAP’s are pushed out, and I’ve been told that the answers are somewhere on the website…. but that would be cheating. 
So I wrote my own program to decode these and make images using html tables. I have it in my crontab.weekly and I have it set to email them to my girlfriend to annoy her.

This past Tuesday I hosted a DNS training seminar for all the employees at Sago. It went over great! The curriculum involved:
- The difference between Caching and Authoritative DNS
- All the different types of DNS Records
- How to use dig and how to interpret it
- How to troubleshoot dns problems
- Secret DNS Tricks!
I recorded the AUDIO (sorry the audio sucks) and the BASH history for those poor souls who want to listen to me drone on for an hour about dns….
