Ramblings, often stream of conscious, journaling the events of my life.

  • Dataste.com has another kitten picture. What’s wit…

    Dataste.com has another kitten picture. What’s with all the kittens today? I found Dataste.com via BlogExplosion. Scroll down for other funnies such as Homeless but still blogging and Things Yoda Might Say While Making Love. There are several good kitty pictures too.

  • Follow the Boobs…or not

    Warning to guys checking out other women! (worksafe. content safe.) You will cry laughing!

  • Kitties

    Looks like someone has been making postcards! You will probably want to click and release your mouse wheel then drag the mouse pointer down slightly to use the autoscroll. I should be mean and say something like “that last picture was funny!” I actually went to the end to see if there was any joke as the last picture (something I would personally do). I doubt many other people will make it all the way through. Enjoy!

    Looks like one of these postcard pics was used for the famous “Everytime you masterbate God kills a kitten” picture.

    Since the topic came up, here is a must watch anti-masterbation commercial No nudity. Worksafe with the exception of the word “masterbate” being spoken repeatedly.

  • Mouse Hunt

    The cat has failed to catch its prey. My Hunt (amz) has begun. The evident of mice in the kitchen is disturbing. Time to eliminate the rodents without hurting the toddler, cat, dog or curious 8 or 14 year old. I give the 11 year old enough credit to stay away from the traps.

  • Letter To My Boobs

    Mommy Matters has an exceptional letter. I give it a must read!

    This Morning

    I worked through the night! And it felt great! I am no more tired this morning that I typically am.

    I am trying to figure out why TN Lottery Results is not getting ranked by google. By the documentation and FAQs I’ve been reading it is possibly due to a lack of external links to the page. The blog is not ranked possibly because they think the page is a “landing page” or “doorway page” for TN Lottery Results.

  • Google Adsense

    I’m having too much fun with Google’s Adsense right now. I just added the skyscrapper to the left to try for a day or two. I already think it looks too obnoxious. I have a total redesign for this blog coming soon anyway. I don’t want to turn the blog into a large advertisement.

  • Need a good reference

    I’m a reference person. I realize that the biggest difference between my ColdFusion experience and my PHP experience is a pocket reference. Granted, I have years of ColdFusion over PHP so there is a greater familiarity but as much as I like searchable online documentation I still have an affinity for a paper reference.

    Time to shop O’Reilly’s.

  • To Death and Evil

    When I came across the Chickadee

    It still had life where it lay

    A beautiful creature with sweet song

    It lived to fly and from breeze

    To breeze it flew without care.

    Never has a barrel of bad apples

    Been turned to edible fruit

    With the inclusion of a single

    Good apple. Much to the chagrin

    Of the optimists, one bad apple

    Will ruin the bunch. One good apple

    Is devoured either by the bad

    Or for a snack or lunch.

    On this day, Evil lay in the tall grass.

    A cat stalked its unawares prey.

    That poor Chickadee was singing

    Its last song today.

    Having left the nest with foul words

    Its mate declared “Good riddance!

    Sing with your flock.” Though she meant it not.

    When left uncared for wood will rot.

    Kept polished, oiled and dry

    It will last centuries.

    Stains leave curvy marks

    Where instead there should be grains.

    Termites eat the innards like cancer

    Eats the brain.

    I rose from the grass

    Held the bird in my hand

    And crushed from its chest

    Its very last breath.

  • Changes

    Tonight my relationship with everybody permanently changed.

    I don’t know what sins I committed in past lives but they must have been some doozies. I sure would like a hint as to when my penance will be paid.

  • Talking is exhausting

    I can’t believe how physically exhausting talking can be. Today has been a series of long phone calls with coding between. I need a nap.

  • Monitors…It’s so dark!

    Anyone have a good source for cost effective monitors? I figure it will be a sale at Office Depot, Stapes, Best Buy or CompUSA. No, I really wish we had a Frys.

  • Today’s Technical Issue

    “The Norton AntiVirus Auto-Protect Driver could not be loaded.”

    The solution: When using multiple logins with Windows98 this error occurs after logging off one user and logging on another user. The solution is to restart the computer between logins.

    A New Day!

    This Morning

    Woke at 2:30 rearing to go. I had so much energy that if I knew where my running shorts where I was tempted to jog around the neighborhood. I was excited that I was dressing to go program for a few hours. Then it happened. The sirens song wafted into my ear. My wife’s call was too strong and I returned to bed only to rise sporadically until 5:30 when I started my day.

    Uncomfortable phone calls scheduled for today.
