Software annoyancs

Wednesday, January 30th, 2008

Nothing too important, but I wanted to vent a touch about certain software annoyances that have impacted me lately.
Wordpress Blog software and Safari: Why can’t these two applications play nice in the Post writing dialog box? Safari keeps removing paragarph marks, condenses images and completely destroys formating. The main use of Firefox for me is [...]

More skiing

Wednesday, January 30th, 2008

Last Friday, I drove up to Mammoth. The entire state of California was in a lull between large storms, and Mammoth had received around a foot a day the past 3 days. Fortunately, the drive up was sunny, if a bit breezy. These cold winter storms left lots of snow around, including a dusting at [...]

It’s snowing!

Wednesday, January 23rd, 2008

Well, it’s not snowing here, but it’ll be raining soon. My annoying cousin, who is up in Mammoth at the moment says it’s snowing lightly, with not much wind, but they had a fresh foot overnight. I’d like to go up this weekend. Anyone interested in that? So far, I’ve had no takers, so it’s an [...]

Cloverfield

Friday, January 18th, 2008

I finally found someone to go with me to the free showing of Cloverfield last night, at the Grove. I didn’t know it, but KROQ 106.7FM was hosting the screening. Young showed up at 6:30, half an hour late due to traffic. Shouldn’t be an issue right? We pull into the parking lot at [...]

Cloverfield movie screening

Thursday, January 17th, 2008

I was able to score two tickets (well, an invite for me and guest) to a screening of Cloverfield, tonight at 7:30pm. Anybody interested in going? It’s a monster/horror movie, and hopefully will be pretty fun!

Sunny day (and a half) in Mammoth

Tuesday, January 15th, 2008

Mammoth this weekend was cloudy with a light dusting of snow (about 2 minutes worth) Saturday morning, then clearing up in the afternoon. Sunday had not a cloud in the sky, and you’d certainly want a lot of sun screen! Ed and I arrived about 6pm, and spent half an hour shoveling out a walk [...]

[image:4307:l]I’m testing out a plugin to make it easier to add photos to the blog, from my gallery… But at least it’s lunch time! [thumb:4307:l]

Behind the scenes stuff

Thursday, January 10th, 2008

I’ve been doing some behind the scenes stuff on this website, and hopefully people will take advantage of it.The first big one is that I added an RSS feed to my gallery. You can access the gallery via this feed. Unfortunately, it adds each photo as it’s own section. But add it to your favorite RSS feed reader ( [...]
