Continued elsewhere

I've decided to abandon this blog in favor of a newer, more experimental hypertext form of writing. Come over and see the new place.

Ninja Convention


Not really, but close: The 8th Annual International Breachers Symposium. The cost is $250, but I imagine if you really belong there you can always avoid the fee by rappelling down from the skylights.

Wow, there is a whole industry devoted to this kind of thing. Not that surprising I guess, every organized human activity has its meetings and vendors and glossy brochures. It's mildly new and surprising that military, police, and spook industries have their affairs opened up to the public on the web. Living in a progressive-urban-liberal bubble you tend to imagine these sort of things off at a distance, but everything is one click away these days.
