What an ABSOLUTE Farking headache! I’ve been at this since early yesterday and I’m still not absolutely certain it is fixed. My one saving grace is that I ALWAYS button down the files on my server. They are ALL and ALWAYS set to 0644 (file permissions) and 0755 (directory). So no [...]

Just the way we like it. Unfortunately, Japan is staring down Man-Yi and hoping it decreases from the anticiapted Cat 4 to a Cat 2 by landfall. Wind shear is [...]

Word Press 2.0.3

June 24th, 2006 · 7 Comments

Sorry about the outage; I’m now running Word Press 2.0.3. It took an inordinate amount of time due to Hughes slowness (and a thunderstorm in Maryland) and I lost a complete post on education that, quite frankly, I am loathe to re-create. Take it from me; it was witty, interesting, spectacular in its [...]

Photos and WordPress

December 15th, 2005 · 1 Comment

If you have Flickr and you have WordPress, you MUST have this most amazing plugin. It places a Flickr toolbar at the bottom of your posting screen in WordPress and you simply click on the picture you want and the HTML appears in your post. I haven’t found a way to make it [...]

Theme cleanup

November 19th, 2005 · No Comments

I’ve gotten rid of Dear Diary. I was having such trouble with it I just decided to tank it. I cleaned up the rest of the old stuff, kept Benevolence because it is a very clean look and put Flickr in all the other themes. I changed some backgrounds and want to [...]

Theme update

August 4th, 2005 · 5 Comments

Well, the La Paz theme isn’t exactly the way I want it, but it will have to do. I think it’s kinda
pretty. Anyway, the trailer isn’t going to clean and pack itself no matter how long I wait, so it is up to me to do it so we can leave tomorrow. [...]

WP update

August 3rd, 2005 · No Comments

I have a new theme, but need to work on it some more. It is called La Paz (look down on the right side column). Still tweaking. We’re in Del Rio Texas with 24/7 free Internet. You’d think I’d have updated by now, eh?
