Broken Links

If you find any broken links here, send me an email or leave a comment. I think I caught them all, but the manner in which the software this site runs on makes URLs is rather complex and I don't really understand the config files, so it's pretty entirely Read More...

Site Fixed

I had some issues with the server this site is hosted on the last week of May/first week of June. Six weeks later I've finally gotten everything all fixed. I took the downtime as an oppurtunity to upgrade the software that runs this site and think Read More...

Site Move/Upgrade

I decided to get a box, actually a virtual server over at www.bitshop.com . I'm in the process of getting that all squared away and working, and then I'm going to swing this site over, and hopefully in the process upgrade the blog software and get rid Read More...

Three Degrees - nope

Scoble is blogging about MS' teen targeted IM client. Unfortunately, it didn't catch on with the target market here (me). I used this thing back in the beta day, and then tried it again several weeks ago: I spent a long time mucking around in the firewall Read More...

New Content Source

Well, I've got a new source of content: Interesting problems people Google for, click through to my blog, and don't find anything. It seems I have a couple of long posts with lots of tech keywords (my rant on ms blaster, and my introductory post). It Read More...

Popeyes Chicken

My little sister decided to procure a batch of Popeye's Chicken & Biscuits (with a side of coleslaw) for dinner this evening. The coleslaw was good. The chicken was decent, albeit dripping with grease. The hockey pucks err biscuits, however, are an Read More...
