    Sharing more conversations from the inbox… Have you considered using an archive feature on your site? I’ve attached narchives.php and with a little tweeking you can easily make an archive page like mine. It’s user-friendly and makes it easier for Search Engine Spiders to crawl your site.

  • Tuesday 22 | Happy Birthday

    Today I turn(ed) 33 years old. Not that much of a milestone but thought I’d share. So far, I’ve gotten a couple of Home Depot giftcards and a book that’s still in the mail. I don’t know what to expect over the thanksgiving holiday when I visit my family but I’m sure it will be [...]

  • Thursday 17 | T’was the night after Thanksgiving

    Got this today via email. I think I’ll start a new catagory called “From the Inbox” just for the email items I re-post here. Anyway, enjoy this little holiday post. T’was the night after Thanksgiving… I just couldn’t sleep, I tried counting backwards, I tried counting sheep. The leftovers beckoned – the dark meat and [...]

  • Wednesday 16 | Dilbert and Intelligent Design

    You may have read my little response to Intelligent Design and were mildly impressed but if you’re looking for some juicy, fist-flinging, hair-pulling debate on the subject, I would suggest you take a look over at The Dilbert Blog. Scott Adams has written a little piece on the subject and with over 200 comments already [...]

  • Wednesday 16 | Radioactive Jam

    So I have a new friend (maybe friend is too a strong a word – associate?) Anyways, through my connections on the WordPress and WPG2 forums I have had the chance to see some interesting blogs/galleries and just had to add this one to my Google Reader list. Radioactive Jam is a skilled blogger with [...]

  • Friday 11 | Battle of the Little Pumpkin Kings

    Two friends of mine each had a little baby boy recently. And as with any new parent in this age of technology, they shared their pictures with friends and family via the internet. But what struck me as interesting (aside from how cute each one is) was how early each child was trying to establish [...]

  • Wednesday 9 | Haunted Car Commercial

    Back by popular demand…. You’ll need a sound card to listen to the production team’s reaction. A brief description is below. This is a VW COMMERCIAL from Germany. When they finished filming the ad, the people who made it noticed something moving along the side of the car like a ghostly white mist. The ad [...]

  • Wednesday 9 | Trackback for beginners

    I’ve been blooging for over a year now and still don’t get Trackbacks, that is, until now. Raydr’s Weblog does the most basic, beginner-friendly explaination of trackbacks I’ve seen. A trackback is your blog’s way of letting ANOTHER blog know that you wrote about them. For example, I’m going to refer you to another site [...]

  • Wednesday 9 | Heartless Goo?

    My response to a post I found, Intelligent Goo Intelligent Goo wrote: Why did God create this complexity? If God designed the universe and designed the rules governing the universe, he would have been free to design anything he wanted to. Why create the need to eat, causing billions of deaths a year. Why create [...]
