Seems like Xanga is limping along at the moment. In an effort to further complicate my bloggings… news here. Real rants over there. Tech News: Found this by following an article on Slashdot. Thinking this would be good to implement. How to Defeat Bad Web Robots With Apache Only has experimental Apache 2.0 support. Maybe 4.2.1 will fix…

This impulse has these properties and caused this behavior. Repeat for each impulse. Then you can say after time, this kind of…
Windows XP sux. I like Windows 2000 better. Much better. One of the things that annoys me is how IE6 behaves. When I click on a link, the text on that line becomes smaller. Huh? Why? Think I am going to phase out this blog site. Maybe make it my backup for my Xanga site. Anyway,…
I like Mozilla. Found Blogzilla, a blog by one of the developers. He had all kinds of tricks. My favorite is the ability to reject pictures from known advertisers. With the right click menu I can add to this list.
