Yup, we voted early today, and I hope you don’t have to ask for whom. In little ole Taos County, over 3,300 people have voted early so far. That’s pretty remarkable, considering the population is only a little over 31,000 souls. I believe the number of registered voters is just under 23,000, but don’t take [...]

No, I haven’t been posting much. In the first place, another one of those meta-reorganizations is taking place. I’ve bought additional software and will shortly launch a completely repurposed site that will feature not only a blog, but everything I’ve ever written. A tall order, but there will be many more reasons to visit. The [...]

Thanks to everyone who’s left a message or sent me one! Yes, it’s here, the actual calendar anniversary of my birth long ago in the wartime summer of 1945 in Bryan, Texas, YE GODS!!! And here’s a picture of me (look hard) with my mother, pretty young Helen Masson from Middle River, MD, taken a [...]

In a very real sense, absolutely! Today is my “actual” birthday (from AstroDienst), with the sun lining up precisely with where it was when I was born in 1945 (!) at 9:25 p.m. tonight, rather than tomorrow, my calendar birthday. This has to do with the imprecision of the numbers, things slipping, the impossibility of [...]

I can’t believe I just did this… Using the WordPress Automatic Update plugin (WPAU), I actually upgraded from WordPress 2.5 to 2.6 successfully. Not without a lot of hassle, but successfully. The first thing that happened was that after the upgrade, I couldn’t log back in to my administrative dashboard. No way, no how. So [...]

In the next day or two I’ll be doing some heavy lifting, Web-wise. The first thing is that I need to recover some files from an earlier version of FarrFeed not currently online. I’m having trouble running this locally on my MAMP virtual server and may need to temporarily transform this blog into the old [...]

Oh, right here. Much work that I’m behind on, way off schedule on obligations to Web site clients, etc. Our house hunting is becoming a full-time job, now that the days are getting shorter — yikes! I pulled a recent contribution to the local alternative paper because it was too rushed and didn’t meet my [...]

A friend of mine called this morning and mentioned my (and his) “existential crisis.” He’s a stalwart fellow and I appreciate the sympathy, but I’m actually not having one. I did get a bit exercised over any number of thoughts during the last few days, and writing is frequently how I process all the stress. [...]

Well, it’s only taken a whole year, but I’m finally mostly done with a new website for a very talented musician, Stanley Greenthal of Seattle, Washington. You can see it in all its nearly-completed glory at StanleyGreenthal.com, of course. Stanley counts a couple of excellent professional photographers among his friends, and I’ve used as many [...]
