All packed up and ready to go. We are all looking forward to this and we’ll be a week in Walt Disney World. The kids have been talking about this for weeks. We wont be gone that long but two grown ups and two kids means lots of luggage. I plan to take lots of […]
Don Imus puts his foot in his mouth again. Is anyone surprised?

Over a week ago I complained about WordPress users crying security wolf and not being able to recover their blog when the “Bad Thing(tm)” happens. Since then a real brawl developed on the support forum that could be summed up like so: One or more users is insisting that there is an XMLRPC exploit in […]
Friday was the mid-season ender of Battlestar Galactica and I just saw it on my DVR. No spoilers but if you want, you can read about it on Salon’s website. The show is still good and the series wrapping up at the end of this season is a good thing. But I have a tough […]
New Doonesbury today! I like number 18 best. That was a long 3 month sabbatical, I was beginning to get Doonesbury Withdrawal Symptoms.
