Well, it's been a long time since I wrote to update on my progress on learning the guitar. Why? For the simple reason that I really haven't made any progress. I dabble on this thing, but I don't really know what I'm doing, and so I'm not making any progress. It's been frustrating. This will hopefully change on March 23rd though.

On March 23rd is my first class in Beginner Guitar. I signed up for an 8 week evening course on learning the guitar. It's located at the W.C. Young Community School in Pembroke Pines on Thursday nights from 6-8 PM. For the next 2 months I'll be spending 2 hours a week learning the guitar and hopefully making a lot of progress at this thing.

I really want to learn this! I haven't given up!

johnDrop the class, get a private teacher. It's well worth the extra money and they'll come to you. I know a guy I can try to hook you up with if interested. Very highly recommended...if he's still around.

rekleWhy not send me the guy's contact info via email (at the link in the upper right hand corner of the window).

I'm going to give the class a try. If it works out, great. If not, maybe I'll call this guy.

johnI'll try to find his #. His name is Mike Corbin. He used to live in Hollywood. I'd pay him like $30 or $40 for an hour and he'd stay for an hour and a half. That's going way back though. I haven't talked to him in a long time.

On another note, I need to be able to encrypt a log file. So my app will be writing to this encrypted log file and I will be decrypting it outside the application for debugging/inspection, etc. I want something pretty secure. Do you have any suggestions on the best and easiest solution?

rekleIf just want to encrypt a file and email it, etc. take a look at PGP (commercial) or GPG (an open source clone of PGP) They do VERY good encryption.

If you want to encrypt something programatically, take a look at the encryption APIs on openssl. It's open source and it's cross platform.
