Without spoiling it for others, let me just say that tonight's episode of Six Feet Under was some of the best television I've ever seen. I'm going to be sad when this show goes off the air, what other show uses a word like Ecotone?
So, I just found out that one of my best friends from junior high is now in prison. Another classmate was trying to find out where people were now, to possibly plan a reunion next year, and she called his house (he was in the phonebook) where his ex-wife filled her in. Here's his inmate record, he's not eligible for parole until 2011, so I don't think he's going to make it. I have to say, I'm completely stunned.

Wow, now ISU has had a computer break-in that possibly gave up credit card and social security numbers. That makes at least one in each of the three state universities in Iowa this year. Think we need to step up security?
A computer at Iowa State University’s Alumni Association was hacked into, allowing outside access to thousands of social security numbers and pages of credit card information, university officials said.
Officials were unsure if the hacker broke into the computer system in search of the information but that it was possible the data was accessed and misused. More than 2,300 student and volunteer social security numbers and nearly 2,400 credit card numbers were stored in the system.
Campus officials said they were notifying individuals about the security breach.
Update: The University of Colorado was just hacked too.
