Backups and updates.

A random site update — comments on yesterday’s post reminded me to back up all the files related to this site. As a former IT professional I should know better than to go long periods of time without backing stuff up.
Thesis Time also means Procrastinating Time so I upgraded WordPress, too. That’s the software [...]

Disclosure.

Starting today, the FTC says I have to inform you if a company is compensating me for mentioning their products on my blog. Well, I’m going to do this a little differently. Here is a list of organizations or entities who aren’t paying me anything, but who probably should:

Whoever makes marshmallow Peeps.
Vitamin Water.
The Washington Wizards.
Saturn [...]

Hello, part two.

So it’s been three months since the official/unofficial end of MoodyTunes. What can I say? Any boxing fans out there? If so, you know that retirements are never permanent until a fighter has suffered so much brain damage that he’s putting Apple Jacks in his driveway and eating gravel for breakfast.

Blog jam.

Random blogging news: We’ve been added to the Lowcountry Blog Jam, a compilation of blogs organized by some pals from my short-lived stay at our local newspaper’s online…what would you call it? Presence? Forums? Whatever it is, I don’t participate there anymore. It’s nice to be included with the Jammers, though. There’s a lot of [...]

Site layout update, and a word about comments.

The WordPress theme experiment is over, and I’ll write more about that endeavor tomorrow. I’m going to stay with what I have. If it ain’t broke, don’t break it.
Working on the site reminded me that a couple of people have asked about comment moderation. I added a line in the About section to clarify:
“Your first [...]
