Two things

If you've bought a Sony-BMG cd of late, you might be infected with their copyright-protection software. I found a list of CDs known to have this software on them, and there is an article about it on today's Circuits section of The New York Times. Sony-BMG says the program is not malicious, but they've gone through the trouble of making it invisible to your computer and your anti-virus program. Backdoor, folks, backdoor, and it's already been abused: the first trojan to take advantage of the 'rootkit' program from the cd. If you've bought Sony-BMG CDs, especially those listed, I recommend you go to their website and use their program to uninstall this malware. Oh, they're not calling it malware, but you better believe it is.

Second, I had a dream that I was sleeping in a bunkbed that had a curtain pulled over the top bunk and I pulled it aside to see my brother, Darryl, fussing over what looked like a gray-and-green wetsuit (the zippers were the kind of heavy-duty, huge-toothed ones you find on wetsuits). I was about to tell him not to be so upset about it as it would make him most resemble Space-Nerd Wil Wheaton (Wesley Crusher, to you ST: TNG fans), when he blurted out that his Halloween costume was ruined. I asked what he was supposed to be, and when he told me, I was glad I hadn't said "Space-Nerd" about his costume.

I'm afraid to ask - what was the costume supposed to be?

...Space-Nerd Wil Wheaton, of course. I was glad I hadn't told him that because that was in fact his costume. Why it vaguely resembled an "Aquatic Assault Wesley Crusher" uniform, I can't say.
