I spent this weekend in Chicago with the lovely Sara with no 'h'. On Friday we were fortunate enough to see Too Much Light Makes The Baby Go Blind. The Neo-Futurist put on a good show as always.

After Sara had a bit of dental work done on Saturday we went to the MSI to see Gunther von Hagens' Korperwelten (a.k.a. Body Worlds). I was very pleased to get an opportunity to see this exhibit. Due to the controversy surrounding it this will be the only American showing and it will only show until September. The show is strongly recommended to anyone with a curiosity about anatomy. I found it surprising how hard Herr von Hagens punched the materialism button. With quotes from Seneca, Nietzsche, Epicurus, and others he really seemed to want to hammer in the point that we are material beings and that when we die all that is left are our physical remains.

Well, enough about last weekend I am off to Defcon 13 in Las Vegas. Happy hacking everyone.
