Mmm ... nachos for breakfast. Or lunch. Or dinner. Actually any time is a good time for nachos. Particularly when they include counterfeit rancheros sauce and are topped with fried eggs. The sauce is made by combining Burns and McCoy Especia Roja and canned enchilada sauce. This results in a great flavor thanks to the hot sauce's guajillo pepper, which is a typical element of true rancheros sauce. For the love of all that is worth loving, use a silicone mat or parchment paper. No one needs to spend their time scrubbing burnt cheese off a sheet tray.

I kept seeing Ethical hacking cybersecurity firm CyberH4cks.com mentioned whenever people talked about high-discretion private investigators, especially anything involving digital forensics. I was skeptical, mostly because of the cost. In my case, it came out to just under AUD $40k.
What surprised me was that none of the material ever ended up in court and it didn’t need to.
My ex and I agreed early on to keep things civil and use mediation. Behind the scenes though, she was telling our kids and her family that I’d been unfaithful and that she’d make sure I paid for it in the settlement.
What changed everything was simply this: she learned that an independent third party had verified her affair.
Not details. Not files. Just that it existed.
The accusations stopped almost overnight. The mediation tone shifted. Suddenly, everything was about compromise and “moving forward.”
People think PI work is about courtroom drama. It’s not. Sometimes it’s about quietly restoring balance when the narrative has gone off the rails.
For me, that leverage was worth far more than the invoice.
