This is probably not the kind of thing we’re supposed to be talking about this time of year, what with all the parties to go to champagne to drink, and choruses of Auld Lang Syne to sing. But I couldn’t let this one go by once I noticed it. I’d seen some headlines about Iraq’s […]
It is, if this MSNBC poll is any indication.
Wow. Remember when talking about impeaching Bush got you written off as crazy? Well, it may not be a scientific poll, but this would suggest that a lot more Americans are a lot crazier than they used to be. If the 2006 elections […]
Can you see this? Because I can’t. My ISP is having network issues, so I can’t reach my blog from my home. But apparently other people can see it, because I’m still getting emails when there are comments posted. Of course I can’t get in to approve the coments that are in moderation, just like […]
Mark asked earlier how the upgrade to 2.0 went, and I thought some of what I’ve expeirenced thus far might have some value for other folks using Wordpress as their blogging tool. For the most part, my upgrade went smoothly. I backed up my database and what files I wanted to back-up just in case, […]
I continue to be amazed at the contortionist capabilities of conservative gay bloggers. I wasn’t going to say anything about the recent death of famed “reparative therapist” Charles Socarides , but then I noticed that conservative gay blogger Steve Miller of Independent Gay Forum couldn’t pass up the chance to get in a dig about […]
If this kid were my son, I’d give him a big hug as soon as he got home. Then I’d lock him in the house until he’s 30.
Having some extra free time over the holidays, I’ve found myself indulging a bit in a favorite pastime that I’ve missed for the last few months. After spending some time on my two recent purchases — The Movies and Civilization IV — I found myself drifting back towards some old favorites. I blew the dust […]
I realized a couple of days ago that I had an anniversary of sorts coming up. Tomorrow will be one month since I finished my novel for NaNoWriMo. That’s when I actually finished the story, as opposed to when I crossed the 50,000 word mark.
The approach of the anniversary of completing the first draft […]
Peacebang has posted an interesting observation about blogger Perez Hilton having “jumped the shark.” I understand where she’s coming from, but I think she’s a little off base.
A week or so ago, he posted a photo of a fat teenaged girl walking on a donkey farm in Australia. Her outfit, very reminiscent of the […]
John of AmericaBlog is asking readers to recommend “good smaller blog[s]”. Go generate some traffic for your favorites. No need to suggest this blog, tho’. I think he already knows it exists.
And they come down quietly, so that no one notices they’re gone. At least not until what was on the other side comes rushing in, or out. And then it’s too late. Last week a few bricks were taken out of the wall between church and state — even as a judge in Dover, […]
Jeb Bush thinks Florida students should read about Narnia, but not evolution. Have we finally become “the dumbest mofos on the planet”? If not, we’re on our way.
This is a test to see how the WYSIWYG editor in WordPress 2.0 deals with asides.
I can’t hold out any longer. Wordpress 2.0 is out, and there’s a new version of my current theme to go with it.
Chances are, I’ll back up my database, etc., tonight and give the upgrade a try. If the new theme breaks, I’ll go back to the old one. If the whole thing breaks, there […]
The “time to make the donuts” guy died. Mr. Vale, those of us who are about to dunk salute you.
