First, obviously, is that I’m worried about my personal situation.
But I also don’t want to jinx it. By “it”, of course, I mean this blowback on Obama and Co. The response is barely a millionth of what’s deserved, but at least it’s something. Apparently the IRS rigged the 2012 election in Obama’s favor. This is so bad that even some Democrats pretending outrage. Heck, it’s so bad that some of them may actually be slighted perturbed. But don’t worry, that feeling will pass with the next false witness against a non-progressive.
Most of all, what if I’m a sort of voodoo doll? “ObamaGate” blew up exactly when my career did. Should I regain control of my life if it lets the Progs control everyone else’s?
Hmm. Decisions, decisions…
World's Only Rational Man 
Just saw your post about getting fired. I’ve been in your shoes and it’s not any fun.
Have you considered some sort of computer contract work? With as smart as you are, you’d probably pick it up in no time.
Heck, I make my living at computers and I most certainly do not claim a superior IQ. (Okay, I do sport a superior IQ, however, that’s beside the point)
Smart motivated people always find a a way….to get even.

The field is so huge…what areas do you work in?
As a side note, I started a project, creating a FreeBSD virtual machine on a Debian platform. The goal being to create a NAT and an IPSEC VPN tunnel delivered via the virtual machine. However, I underestimated just how many times the kernel was going to recompile as I started adding packages. Yeesh.
Whoo hoo! As I typed the above, it finally completed… after several hours.
Whoops…I asked a question to your first comment before reading this one. I assume you have a pretty high-grade system you do this on?
My system is a basic dual core processor with only 4GB RAM. At some point, I’ll bite the bullet and upgrade the motherboard on my computer. The system I use is designed for gaming. Gaming systems tend to be a bit more robust, due to the loads gamers place on their systems.
In answer to your question, I’m a hardware and networking guy, with database and scripting experience. I’ve also done web design.
I am not a programmer, by any stretch of the imagination.
