      Grumble Grumble

      Thursday, June 25th, 2009

      Dreamweaver isn’t cooperating at all. Not in either of the versions I use.
      All I want to do is change the database referenced in a page to a different table. Will it let me make this simple one digit change that brings everything up to date?
      Not even close.
      Edit:
      Figured it out. Server changes meant that [...]

      Playing at the Bean

      Wednesday, June 17th, 2009

      I played at Planet Bean again tonight and I realize that I’m the only person who plays here that doesn’t use any real gear.
      I mean that.
      Everybody comes in here with an amplifier. They use it to hook up a microphone and their guitars. They sound really great, and this isn’t meant to criticize them at [...]

      Skunked

      Monday, June 15th, 2009

      My efforts at getting the garbage put out at the curb tonight before bed has been foiled by the presence of a skunk foraging through the bags at the end of the lane.
      We live in a townhouse complex, so there are a lot of bags there. As I walked down the lane, there it was. [...]

      Playing Games

      Sunday, June 14th, 2009

      Wow. We just finished playing Settlers of Catan with the neighbours. We played several games, starting at 2 this afternoon. Jan figured it was 7:30, so we’d move on to another game, but it was, in fact, 10:30.
      Now, we’re watching the PVRed Game 7 from the other night. I already know the Pens won, but [...]

      Lazy Sunday

      Sunday, June 14th, 2009

      Taking it easy for a Sunday afternoon. We did some cooking this morning and are kicking back to listen to the Vinyl Cafe on the CBC. I have my coffee and Jan is “resting her eyes” on the couch, Charlie draped over her legs.
      Charlie is maintaining no such deception over his sleep, and his [...]

      This is a Test

      Wednesday, June 10th, 2009

      Just trying out the WordPress iPhone app. It seems to be working well at long last. For weeks, it wouldn’t connect, but today, I upgraded my WP installation, and at long last…
      nothing.
      Not a thing.
      Then I switched off the Resize Photos button and, well, if you can read this, it worked!
      In other news, I was going [...]

      A Little Friday Irony…

      Friday, June 5th, 2009

      I thought I’d take a look at our wedding site today. It’s here if you’re interested.  Anyway, we kept a blog as we got married and went on our honeymoon.  We made a point of updating it everyday so that we would be able to look back on it and remember what we were thinking [...]
