Confession of the Day
I have been married for 15 years. I have known my wife since I was 8. We have 3 daughters together. 17, 14, and 11.
I’m tired of feeling like I’m an outsider in my relationships with all of them. I’m just an ATM and taxi service to my kids. My wife hasn’t kissed me in 6 months. She has not said that she loves me in 1.5 years. No matter how much I communicate, try to plan anything or do anything it is always shot down, forgotten, or dismissed. I don’t get angry in don’t yell. I don’t get physical.
How Did Game Genies Work?
In general a Game Genie was designed to sit between the console and the cartridge and when the console asked the cartridge for data the game genie could secretly change it before passing it back to the console.
So for example you have a game where you start with 3 lives. That number 3 exists somewhere in the data or code on the cartridge.
Picture Of The Day
During the Great Depression Al Capone started one of the first soup kitchens, called “Free Soup Coffee & Doughnuts for the Unemployed.” Capone’s soup kitchen served breakfast, lunch and dinner to an average of 2,200 Chicagoans every day
One of the pioneering initiatives of Al Capone was the establishment of one of the earliest soup kitchens. Although the kitchen employed only a few individuals, it provided nourishment to a significantly larger number of people. This was especially crucial given that, prior to the enactment of the Social Security Act, “soup kitchens” like the one founded by Al Capone were often the sole source of meals for many unemployed Americans.

Why You Should Meditate
Between stimulus and response there is a space. In that space is our power to choose our response. In our response lies our growth and our freedom – Viktor E. Frankl
Meditation is a great way to make that “space” bigger, as are several kinds of self reflection. Watching yourself in the moment, seeing where your thoughts take you without judgement, helps you to understand your own mind. It isn’t easy, and it takes time to develop this awareness of your own response, but over time your ability to change your response (in this case steer away from certain thoughts and toward better ones) does get better.

Confession of the Day
My daughter died 5 years ago today and a part of me is glad about that. Makes me sound horrible. I know. I would never say this out loud to anyone ever.
