in case y'all don't know what "Missy Elliot" is:

"Is it worth it, let me work it
I put my thang down, flip it and reverse it
I put my thang down, flip it and reverse it [backwards 2X]"

@revelation

Seriously there is actually a type of music called DogHouse (not sure if it is limmited to the UK or not) that should not be confused with the Band DogHouse, who have a web site (search for doghouse-music).

A friend of mines teanageer likes DogHouse music and whilst round at my friends house my ears where subjeted to it through atleast a couple of closed doors (I do not recommend it if you are over about 25).

It was the musical context of this blog page, Bruce's "In The Dog House" and the recent assult on my musical sensabilities and ears that caused me to make the bad bad pun...

I find it interesting that the logo on the podium is pretty much a cartoon version of the IACR , which runs the big Crypto conferences.

Real names aren't required, but please give us something to call you. Conversations among several people called "Anonymous" get too confusing.
