…that this site is not dead yet.  Still, I am breathing life into it.  At least I hope so.  be prepared for scintillating commentary soon, for sure.

Don’t forget to turn out the lights when you leave the room.  I’ll be “turning out the lights” on my communication for a day or two, likely.  We’re moving house after tonight, so I’ll see ya on the flip side.

Updated: Looks like we’re going to have to park the truck really close to the house.

That’s my traffic stat for the rss and atom feeds to this site.  That’s significant.  There are many sites who have ignored this and suffered because of it.  Do you think about your feeds? Now, for anyone who does read this site via rss feed (or the 4.17% who use atom), let me know what you think of the presentation in your feed, if you feel like it.  You can send me an email (see the link above in the menu bar), or comment on this post (which means that you’ll have to click out of your feed reader).  I’ve disabled hotlinking for images, so some feed services won’t show them.  Let me know if that bothers you, as well.  I just don’t want to enable some bandwidth thief to bother with my images.  I want to make them go to the work of saving my images and uploading them to their own hosting, as I have.

That’s it, just like the tire foam commercial.

The leaves can now officially change color.  Here’s a little brain food for you on the first day of fall.

…in 1957…and, over the years, on this day a few people came out to see what was going on.

I’d like to wish a Happy Birthday to:

  • Ricki Lake
  • Faith Hill
  • Dave Coulier
  • Bill Murray
  • Stephen King
  • Leonard Cohen
  • H.G. Wells

and Me.  Although it was 3 days after Jimi Hendrix died, I am not his reincarnation.  There’s your age clue, folks.  I will probably have some chocolate cake (my mom’s recipe, if I can find it) with Sea Foam frosting (I’ll make a double batch and use it all).  I may spend the evening at Forty Creek with my pal, Alexander Keith.

I received this in an email, with instructions to tack it on, from my “flashy” friend, Macbros.

Awww, shucks! For those of you who love freedom, let me know if it works with Gnash or swfdec.

As the description of the product says, “What do you buy for that person who has everything?”

Apparently, this is a great choice.

That is, again.

The upcoming release of Wordpress, version 2.7, has had some changes in where to find things that you do with your blog from behind.  The administration panel is being overhauled again.  Things will be moved around to where the developers think they should be.

This time, however, they have put up a poll so that you can give your input in how you’d like to see it.  You input might influence the way your admin panel looks.  It WILL change, regardless, so do the poll so that the developers have a clue as to which if their visions that you like the most (or dislike the least).

The survey can be found here.
