This is a test. This is only a test

I’m still working on getting things squared away here before I move on to the other sites. But it looks like things are coming along nicely after the recent server fiasco. I’m also trying out a new plugin called LinkCurl that scours the web for relative articles to add to the post. I’ve made some [...]

A Flick of the Wrist

When I was a kid (who am I kidding, I’m still one) I can remember watching Dick Tracy in the movie theater (you know the one with Warren Beatty and Madonna) and thinking how cool it would be to have talking watches where I could communicate with my friends or who ever. With Cell phones [...]

Because we have Barack Obama…

You heard it during the election with people claiming that Obama would be the be all end all to their problems. Promises of paid bills, government health care and who knows what else.

Follow the Leader

I didn’t vote for him. I don’t agree with most of his ideologies (both economic and social) nor the policies he promotes. I’m not sure that even he knows what he means when he says “Change for America” (it became clear during the election that most of his supporters had no idea. I will however, [...]

Server Fail!

If anyone visits this blog on a regular basis, then you’ve certainly noticed the issues the site/server was having lately. Something was causing the server to go crazy and would tie up processes on the server and slow things down to the point of a crawl. Well, last friday, when I had the host reboot [...]

Have you been to…

It occurred to me as we were passing through city after city on our trip to Chicago recently that there are just some City Names that people like to use over and over and over again. For instance, we drove through Smyrna, Tennessee (home of Nissan). This wouldn’t be too odd, except that there’s a [...]
