                                       The Avast Security Seminar
                                                          "Protecting yourself and Your Identity Online"
Not that long ago, the presentation was made aboard the Sky while in the Bahama's which are located in the Atlantic Ocean.
On June 2, 2012 I'll be doing the presentation for the TUG which is the oldest user group in Hawaii and,
is part of the Military Officers Association of America, Hawaii Chapter (MOAA) which has somewhere around a thousand members.
(Only a small portion of those members ever attend the meetings.)The TUG meets in Honolulu which is in Hawaii and,
is located in the Pacific Ocean.
Aloha every one.
Bob, how I envy you...

Not to mention the ordeal of just boarding the plane.   But have to admit, for a volunteer job for a retiree, perks don't get much better than all the travel you get.....well, until they send you to somewhere like Minnesota in January.  ;D

The worst part of any flight is the ordeal of the security scan you have to go through each and every time you leave on a  trip.  :'(


Iowa in May should be pretty nice.... :)

Dear Bob,

You were in AZ last month and we didn't get together )-:

However, we have discussed the seminars before, I did them for many years mostly to schools in AZ and the Pima County folks.  I used to co-chair our local chapter of the NIPC, so I have a lot of great stories about Organized Crime and Terrorism attacking financial institutions.

Although interesting, it has nothing to do with the presentation.  :)

On 4/26/2012, 19 Members of the Thousand Oaks Personal Computer Club in Thousand Oaks CA. attended the evenings presentation
on "Protecting Yourself, Your Computer and, Your Identity".
This was a fairly small but very inquisitive group. I was glad to see that they asked many questions.
We'll also see some new installs from some of this clubs members of the new avast! Free for Mac version
which was just released.

Tomorrow morning I'll be at the Channel Islands PC Users Group in Camarillo, CA

It was a pleasant flight home as is evident from the pictures and the video.
On the plane, I think I had the best seat in the house.

                                           (Click image to Enlarge)
