Tiger's Out Cold
Well, it is official, the Tiger's Season 2009 is officially over after last night's devastating smash from the Minnesota Twins. Heading into the 12th inning, both teams definitely put up a fight, where we saw many errors towards the end of the game from the Tiger's side.
The most devastating part of this night for me was watching Raburn trying to be fancy out in left field, sliding to catch a ball, to only miss it. It looked as though he turned his head as he was going in for the ball. This is the point when the Twins scored to tie up the game. We could've taken them down at this point.
Better luck next year, Tigers...

Gemütlichkeit!
Gemütlichkeit - is a German abstract noun that connotes the notion of belonging, social acceptance, cheerfulness, the absence of anything hectic and the opportunity to spend quality time.

To this word I say, I love you. As I was searching through my email this morning, I noticed this word, so I clicked on it; I fell in love at first site. What is it about this word that I all of a sudden enjoy so much?
1) It's German;
2) It sounds cool;
3) The whole meaning behind it.
This word gives me a vision of what Germany is all about: beer and great times with the people in your life. It seems traditional and classy at the same time.
This word is great for use during celebrations or even when you're out on the town having a great time with friends. So next time I'm out with friends having a beer, you might find me saying to everyone in a toast, Gemütlichkeit.

Phone Spoofing...dangerous?
Just days ago, I friend challenged me and said that he could access my voicemail messaging service from his phone. I simply replied, "there's no way!" Minutes later, he had accessed my voicemail and was listening to the 4 saved messages from people that had left messages over the past month.
What is phone spoofing? According to wikipedia, "Spoofing is the practice of causing the telephone network to display a number on the recipient's caller ID display which is not that of the actual originating station." For example, let's say there are 3 parties involved. You are party A. Party A decided to call party B using party C's phone number. Party C has no understanding that his or her number is being used, or spoofed, to call party B. To me, it's like a pranking service, and all seems very dangerous.
I was appalled when I knew my friend could access my voicemail. Instantly I thought, "This is a breach of security." This here is a federal offense because for one you are accessing someone elses personal/private information without consent. So, how do you get away from having your voicemail accessed? Simply set a password for your voicemail. Though it may be inconvenient for you in the short run, it's better and safer, and offers more privacy in the long run.
There are many sites out there that offer this spoofing service for free, or you can even pay for it after a few uses of the service. Some sites do not allow you to access other people's voicemail accounts, but there are other sites that don't have this feature blocked. Again, if you don't have a password for your voicemail account, GET ONE! It will better protect you in the long run.
Need more information on this? Google around and see what you can find.
