Bits and Bobs
Quickly, a few admin notes:
1) Nate is blogging again, this time at Under the Thinly Veiled Guise of Sanity. It’s blogging for the depressed, by the depressed. And it’s pretty damn funny. Check it out.
2) I imported all of my old archives, so now the the engine’s tentacles reach back to October [...]

Post With The Not-Most
It’s done.
At long fucking last it’s done.
It’s safe to say that I’ve put more work into building this son of a bitch than I have since when I first sat down six years ago and thought, Huh. How about I make a blog? Perhaps that will finally satisfy these narcissistic tendencies I’ve been experienceing. Then [...]
More Anti Than Hero
Perseverance, aided by half a bottle of vodka, and here I am, having finally figured out WordPress themes. The main page looks pretty much the way it should, with a few small tweaks needed here and there. The other pages . . . not so much. They’re completely functional as far as [...]
There Will Be Blog
Oh. Hello there. I didn’t see you come in.
Blogging will recommence in the short future, once I figure out how to make a WordPress “theme,” which I despise having to do. Movable Type, despite its many sundry flaws that made me stop using it, I at least understood how the templates work. [...]
FOOD FOR THE SEOUL
Celebrated the third birthday of JOSH BALES dot NET yesterday with Nate and his dad at the Seoul House, this Korean dive near Fairborn. Nate’s dad brought little party hats for us to wear, while we drank sake and sang karaoke, which mostly consisted of Korean pop hits. It was pretty sweet.
Okay, I’m [...]

UPGADE COMPLETE
Okay, so the upgrade to Movable Type 3.31 went swimmingly, despite Six Apart’s somewhat lacking documentation. Their instructions on how to go about upgrading were some of the worst I’ve seen. I sort of guessed my way through the various steps, Things Happened, and then all of a sudden my screen said “UPGRADE [...]
PLAYIN’ POSSUM
Just me in the house for the moment. Roland and Linda came over a bit ago to celebrate his and my mom’s birthdays (his was the 11th, hers today). Before we go get something to eat and do the assorted birthday stuff, everyone but me is going to the Englewood Fine Arts Festival. [...]

That’s how much comment spam I just deleted from JBdN. And that’s just since yesterday around seven, when I deleted another one or two hundred. Barely 24 hours. Gods above, I’m just glad I’m holding all the comments for approval.
So that’s it. I’ll be instituting TypeKey in the next week or [...]
