[ale] Numbers 8 and 9

[Jerald Sheets]

I'm in a weird spot in that my employer doesn't allow any of that without a pass from legal.  If somehow I get tagged to their employ and happen to have a popular article (happened a couple times on Linux.com in 2003-2005 and MacApper a couple years later) I could be fired.

I love to write and I love to host Linux groups and be a part of the community...  I'm just not allowed right now.  :(

Maybe soon.
