How Do You Organize Your Data?

kpellegr asks: "After returning from a well deserved holiday, I was faced with an exploding inbox. While organizing and deleting my mail, I realised I was having trouble classifying each mail into one specific folder. I had the feeling I should be able to link to one email from several folders (e.g. product information should be linked to from the 'vendor' folder, as well as from a specific project folder where this product is used). The more I thought about this, the more I realised that trees (such as the Windows filesystems) are not really ideally suited for organizing data. On UNIX-like filesystems, symbolic links allow the creation of simple graphs for organising data, but I have the feeling data could be organized more efficiently. How does the Slashdot crowd organize their data? How do you manage files, email, contacts, meetings and all the relationships that might exist between them?"

    Da Bomb Sex

    That night we both got off work at the same time. I saw Jorge walk out behind me and then he yelled, " Yo wait up!" He was the dishwasher who worked late; we both worked the same shift. Jorge was one of the sexiest Puerto Rican guys I had ever seen since I moved to New York City, and that was no lie. He had on a white dishwasher uniform with a white hat tilted to the side, he had a gold earring and his left ear and his name-brand jeans sagged on his body, giving him that thug-sex appeal. He had a light golden complexion, nice full pink lips and a thin trimmed goatee with a faded ceasar. He was about 5'11 and he had to be about 24 old. I could tell by the slight arch in his back that he had an athletic/swimmers build. I am 22 years old puerto-rican/black, 5'7, with a tan complexion.

    When he caught up to me he said " Yo, where you live at?" I told him I lived in Queens and he said that he lived in Queens too. " Yo, do you smoke?" I really had never smoked marijuana before, but I said yeah just so I could hang out with this fine ass dude. He asked if we could go to my "crib" and I said yeah. I couldn't believe I was doing this considering I only got to know him in an eight-hour shift. When we got to my apartment I told him to make himself comfortable. He leaned on the couch and flicked on the television

    "Damn, you got a nice pad yo" I thanked him and told him I was going to take a shower. While I was in the shower,I started to get horny thinking about what I wanted him to do to me. When I got out of the shower he had already lit up the weed. "Here", and handed me the "blunt." I took a puff and started coughing. He put a sexy ass grin on his face and said, "Man, have you really smoked before?" I told him yeah, but that it had been a while since I smoked. We started to talk more about school, life, and guy stuff. Just lookin' at him was turning me on. A few times I thought he caught me looking at his crotch, but he didn't really give me any reaction. Then he asked me something that still shocks me to this day, he said, "Do you wanna suck my dick?" I though I was dreaming. There was a big knot in my throat and I though I wasn't going to be able to speak He kept giving me a hardcore stare waiting for an answer. I said I didn't know. He said, "you know you wanna suck my shit." And then grabbed his dick through his baggy jeans. I just sat there. I couldn't believe somebody as fine as this Rican was asking me to suck him off. I told him I had never sucked dick before, and then he said, "Good, den let me show you." He got up off the couch and stood in front of me. He unbuckled his baggy jeans that were barely hanging on to his waist and dropped them to the floor. He had on gray boxers and I could slightly see his dick through the opening. It was brown and uncut. It had to be at least 7 to 8 inches in length, and and it wasn't even hard...yet. He pulled his dick out through his boxers and said, "C'mon, put it in ya mouth." My dick had already grown hard as a rock. I grabbed his dick and slowly started to suck the head of his dick, "Mmmm, yeah that's right, put all of it ya mouth", he said in a light voice. His dick started to grow harder and thicker. It had to be at least 10 inches now. I really started to get the hang of things. I grabbed his thick shaft and started to suck harder, tasting his pre-cum. "Damn, you like dis don't you?", he said as looked down at me. He started to move his hips back and forth, side to sided. His gigantic balls lightly hit my chin as he pushed his dick deeper into my mouth. I thought I was going to cum in my pants I was so turned on. I almost choked a couple of times because he started to thrust his dick farther and farther down my throat. His dick kind of slanted to the side as it went into my mouth,which turned me on more and more. I could'nt get all of his monstrous dick in my mouth but I was trying. He was saying things like, "Yeah that's it, baby, suck dat rican dick, suck it, mmmm." He also said a couple of things in Spanish that I didn't understand. Then he bl

    First, create a website that looks like an online community for spammers. Run it for a while, build a history, but don't actually have any real members.

    Then, leave a hole in your security and "slip" that your enemys are the spammers.

    Watch the first global mob lynch them on TV
