Book

Tuesday I decided that I needed a book for work, so I announced that I was going to go buy one. The CTO told me to be sure to submit an expense report on it. Sweet.

So, I drove up to the book store and searched for the book I needed. It wasn't there, but I found a security book that looked really interesting. So, naturally, I bought it. As I was standing at the check out the clerk read the title which contained the word "hacker" asked me, "So, is this for you? Do you do a little <mimics typing with his hands> you know?"

"Maybe." I answered non-committally.

"Maybe..." he said with a sick smile. Clearly excited about the prospect of me being some sort of ne'er-do-well. Now, it could be totally hot to be picked up in a book store, but when a guy gets turned on by the fact that you might be doing things that seem a bit questionable — sure doesn't work for this geek.
