Don’t take that title too seriously, please. Yesterday was our 9 month anniversary thingy. Please allow me to show you my romanticles in this fancy, bulleted list of yesterday’s events (in chronological order): Something ridiculous like 6am: Bea gets up to skate for 3 hours. I sleep for two and a half more hours and… Continue reading We coulda had a baby by now

Office, 2008
So, my new bookshelf came in today. Looks good, but methinks I should have gotten a wider one. Meh. Well, here’s some pics of my new bookshelf and the current state of my home office. Click on the images for flickr-y extras.
More on that mod_rewrite hack.
So I implemented that mod_rewrite hack (but added string sanitizing, etc.) on a project for a client. The other morning, it failed spectacularly. It was definitely one of those “But it worked fine yesterday” moments that we all love. In this instance, the host uses cPanel (an out-of the-box hosting solution), and I was not… Continue reading More on that mod_rewrite hack.
The Incomparable Mr. Maedgen
Well, it’s safe to say that last night, I had by far the safest house in the Treme / 1st District. I had about 8 on-duty cops in my living room, watching the LSU game. Clint came by my house this morning because I had recorded his performance onto my computer. I gave him a… Continue reading The Incomparable Mr. Maedgen
Jose, can you see?

Show, and guest singer for the Preservation Hall Jazz Band (for three years now) will be singing the National Anthem for the BCS Championship game tonight with the aforementioned jazz band. The game will air at 6:30PM Central time on FOX – so… Continue reading Jose, can you see?
Born Under a Bad Sign

According to Holy Mountain, I was born in the year of the Aggressive Metal Monkey. As a quick rule of thumb, the principles… Continue reading Born Under a Bad Sign
Knock, Knock. Who’s There?
One thing I picked up in NC (besides yer moms (sorry, had to)) that I do really like was this: There is no doorbell here, and I was thinking that next hardware store trip, I’d pick up one of them fancy wireless doorbells. I wasn’t too keen on it, but I’m much happier with this.… Continue reading Knock, Knock. Who’s There?
First Post of the Rest of the Year
Heeeellooooooo, 2008. I of course wanted to put this up yesterday, never got around to it. Where do I start? Howsabout a rough outline of some major-ish events since my last post (that should be individual posts themselves): Reffed the first Jackson MS / Biloxi MS derby bout Retired from rollerderby refereedom. Am now known… Continue reading First Post of the Rest of the Year
Merry Hoffmas!
Portal
If you have things to do, please skip this. I ran across this game a few weeks ago, got hooked, and beat it. It is a 2D flash-based version of the game Portal (watch the trailer), that I can’t wait to get my hanbs on (*cough*Sonny*cough*). So, you can play this flash version in fullscreen… Continue reading Portal
