News & Updates:
(25 Mar, 2010)
I just found out recently that one of my good friends passed away. Steve Willhite used to call my BBS, The River Styx II back around 1984. Steve had been part of my life since and was always a fun guy. (I was mid-way through High School.) Full of energy and humorously creative, (he was an art/advertisement guy) he made me laugh on a regular basis. Over the past few years, he had been sending out a mailing list, "Today's Lyrics to Live By" that would have a song with inspirational lyrics from a well known or maybe not so well known artist/band. The bottom would have a link so we could all click to YouTube and Enjoy/Cringe the music mentioned in that days email.
Around Christmas time this year, Steve sent me an email with a Christmas card he had made on a website he put together. I immediately replied (knowing his sense of humor), "I'm afraid to look" -- but I looked anyway. Of course it made me laugh as a lot of Steve's emails did. I never heard back from him about it. I figured he was just busy. I also noticed the mailing list stopped too. Again, I figured he was just busy.
His daughter emailed me back in the beginning of March to let me know he had passed in late January.
I'm not sure what to really say that can truly describe all that was fun and neat about Steve. Certainly he was an example of how to spread laughter and smiles to all nearby.
I know I will miss him.
Party on, Steve!

It's the end of an era. Palm no longer makes a PDA only device. They only make phone/PDA combo units.
To me this is a shame as I always kept my phone and PDA separate because it allows me to change my phone (as often as I like) while taking good care of my PDA so that it will last a long time as my data is fairly static.
Such a Shame. Maybe someone will come up with a new device to sequel the Palm T|X.

MS .NET Framework update (3.5) installs dangerous add-on to Firefox... WITHOUT user notification or removal option!!
How rude can the folks in Redmond get!?? WAIT! THAT's a rhetorical question! We already know the answer to that.. DR-DOS, Java, dual-api... how many marks of anti-trust naughtiness do these guys need on their record? Yeesh!

Mail lists are back up (and better than ever)!
I'm now using Mailman which is a step up up from MajorDomo. I like it. I need to customize all the pages - but that's for when I have time.
(21 Jan, 2008)Server go BOOM!
I HATE when that happens!!
Imagine having 2 drives mirrored so in case one fails, you're ok?
Now imagine both failing at the same time!! Grrrr...
Yep, that's what happened this weekend - So bear with me while a lot of the website is broken and I need to fix and change it anyway to run with this new system I wanted to move to anyway... (just not so forced and fast)
Most all my cool scripts are broken at the moment needing adjustments or newly created data files since the data's on the old server.
Things that are still broken:
