In My Own Words:
Why are my reviews all positive? Easy, I don't post negative reviews. That is not to say that I have not wasted my time on some pretty awful books because I have. I have simply chosen to only post the positive ones so that you can quickly scan my list of reviews and know that if it is really bad it is not even there getting in your way.

A Jack of all trades, knowledge has always fascinated me and I can't seem to get enough, there is always something new to learn.

It never ceases to amaze me how the best teachers and philosophers can take a tremendous amount of wisdom and distill it into a compact sentence or two so it is easily remembered. In "Winning Habits" author Dick Lyles has done an excellent job of doing exactly that. A whole philosophy of life is distilled down into just four sentences which, when they become habits, will propel you forward in life no matter what your goals.

The reader sees life through the eyes of Albert and Jennifer as she gets regular promotions at work and he is left wondering why he does not. Albert works hard and does his… Read more

If you want to know about Snort 2.1, one of the best open source intrusion detections systems available, then "Snort 2.1 Intrusion Detection, Second Edition" is the book you will want to have.
