Microsoft Hacked
Shortly after noon, today, Microsoft was Hacked. Though Ijd like to say this happened to one of Bill Gates' business entities, it didn't.
My bedroom door doesn't close properly. The door shuts, but doesn't quite latch, so all you have to do is push on the closed door asand all the riches of the kingdom will be exposed to you. Actually, it's just all of my unfilled bills and invoices scattered around the room by the cats.
With the exception of one weekend, I don't let the cats into my bedroom. Hack, however, has figured out that he can open the door by pushing on it and eventually grew strong enough to push it open.
So I blocked it. When I went to sleep, I'd slide this box of diskettes and documentation from an old purchase of Microsoft Office for the Mac that I had bought back in college. It's about a foot cube, maybe a little less, and filled with decently heavy paper. It made a great doorstop.
But Hack is still growing. Over the course of twenty minutes of effort, he managed to push the door open enough for him to squeeze through. It wasn't enough for him to squeeze back out, but he got in. Diva, being smaller, had little trouble getting in and out.
<SIGH>
I think I'll try using the Toaster to block the door.
