OK Damian, I have it working now. I also use Go Daddy, and Justin's "all in one" code also caused my server to crash, so it looks like a Go Daddy thing. I love Go Daddy though, the service is great, and this is no reason to switch (believe it or not, I also host over at Network Solutions) As for the fix: First, I did not put the rewrite code i […]
Man, thanks for the great review and info. I love that it could be argued that this movie is targeted at social workers and teachers who practice LaME. On a side-note: I hope to have that indexing turned around in 36 hours at the latest. Lots going on tomorrow. Moving furniture for wood floor dude Grandma hired for us (Christmas gift). […]
Thanks..I always wanted that comment follow-up plugin but always forget about it when I'm online. You'd think WordPress would have put that in their default code by now...How are you checking to see if it really redirects? Check Justin again and try to follow his steps. I think you may have got in too deep with the move and created a unique situati […]
Merry Christmas everybody…I guess nowadays that means total strangers actually smile to me and say hello today. [EDIT- Sure enough, some older woman said hello to me and my dog this morning.]
2008 Christmas trends:
I see a bunch of parked cars in my neighborhood. I guess that means due to the cold weather fronts in most of America, many traveling plans have been wiped out. Not to mention the cost of plane tickets.
Due to being bombarded with the financial CRISIS and coming Great Depression, I think many families have taken it easy this year and just trying to appreciate their families by staying home. I think everyone is RELIEVED that they survived 2008.
As much as many people have been campaigning to stop credit cards and to get away from the credit mentality- for many families, using credit cards was the only way to celebrate Christmas, especially with so many people on unemployment and food stamps.
The merchandising aspect- that Christmas MUST be celebrated with gift exchanges will never go away, even if our economy gets worse and worse. It’s our own faults, you know. People expect…nay DEMAND gifts instead of actually celebrating the birth of our Lord and Savior, Bara- I mean Jesus of Nazareth. God sent down his son, and he died for our sins. I’d recommend watching Mel Gibson’s Passion for more info. Ben Hur, too.
When I was a kid living in New York, July used to mean so much to me.
#1 NO SCHOOL #2 DAY CAMP #3 Can go to sleep whatever time I wanted #4 Went to Yankees Stadium and Shea Stadium #5 No winter coats, mittens (!), scarfs, ski caps, or goulashes (!) #6 No runny noses
As an adult living in South Florida? July is just another month. I’m serious. I don’t have any kids, and don’t go to school, so the whole “July = vacation” thing just doesn’t mean anything to me anymore. I keep reminding myself that school’s out when I’m driving and see kids/teens walking around during school hours.
At my day job, I just meet production deadlines. I have a white board with red markers indicating job codes and due dates. I rush to gets projects out to meet each month’s billing cycle. So July 31 has the same meaning as October 31.
In terms of weather, in Florida it’s always hot, sunny, and rainy. (Yet in July, the rain can get pretty bad at times.) In New York, July = beach. In Florida, one is hard pressed to see the season changes.
In many ways, I always associated July and summertime with youthful innocence, excitement, and not having responsibilty. But once one becomes an adult, it’s just another month.
In high school, I started to see how July began to lose its luster: some of my classmates who were around 15+ began to get summer jobs or went to summer school to get more credits. I finally gave into the nerd peer pressure to be productive during summer vacations, and that was the beginning of the end for July.
July 4th? Fireworks? ONE DAY OFF? Big deal.
I wouldn’t even have known it was July if not for work due dates.
I had to break out the sweatshirts, hoods, gloves, winter blankets, wool hats, scarfs, and whatever else I can get.
I mean I read and see that the rest of the country has snow and ice, but you really can’t appreciate it until it happens to you.
Boy it’s tough to even walk to the car in the morning.
And getting out of the car to run into the office- even though it’s only 50 feet away, it’s still quite an adventure. I feel like one of those explorers that climbs Mount Everest.
I mean, Tuesday it was 80 degrees, and the next thing I know it dropped down to 50 degrees, and right now it’s only 41 in Fort Lauderdale, Florida! It is freezing here!
So for the rest of the country- you have my sympathy!
Here’s a shot of South Florida RIGHT NOW, showing the conditions we have to deal with:
CCB3 is a regular poster and contributor. He has made numerous videos that I have not gotten a chance to upload yet from his last visit. His first was his now infamous Taco Bell skit.
DailySkew: Are you thinking about your 2008 return to Coral Springs?
CCB3: when i return to south florida to visit,i have unfinished business.
Dailyskew: Like what?
CCB3: first,i need to redeem myself with a low,slow song on american idol.then you can tape me on my “cops” impression while driving around-preferably in the day in a bad neighborhood.you camera work will be key,as you tape me talking and driving,you can alternate to shots of people in the street.as i comment.we’ll try to make it as realistic as possible.
Dailyskew: Sounds great!
CCB3: and lastly,the batting cages,i have improved my stance-i’m still horrible-but a little more improved.and i want to see you in the cage.
Dailyskew: Let it be written, let it be done! Thanks!
Let’s give a round of applause to ALFREDO ACEVES, who is now leading the pack (as of Monday @ 1:47PM) for the 2010 New York Yankees 5th starting pitching slot (ERA of 0.90 in 10 innings). Based on ERA and innings pitching, Aceves is 1st, Sergio Mitre is 2nd, Phil Hughes is 3rd, Chad Gaudin [...] […]
NPR: - Blockbuster is about to go bust OPINION ALERT – we’ll be covering the end of Blockbuster here, with lots of apocalyptic-style photos; Blockbuster has been behind the curve for years — what. They couldn’t negotiate to get rights for streaming movies like Netflix did? They didn’t see the idea of a DVD rental machine like [...] […]
This time around I realized that the raccoon was free from suffering now. It's a shame its life had to end like that- it was blameless; humans built roads in the middle of his ancestor's forest. Progress and technology broke that raccoon's legs and took his life tonight. But now the suffering has ended for it. I mourned the raccoon and the way […]
ust a quick observation before I run: I jumped from watching 1980's pro wrestling to the 1991 Survivor Series because WWE put up the whole PPV online for a limited time. It never fails to amaze me how much things change. It was like I was in a time machine from 1987 to 1991... […]
