I was trying to get home despite the fucking monsoon, and got right past President’s Island when traffic came to a dead stop. I sat there for a few minutes before noticing that no traffic was coming the other way either. I finally put it in low range and cut through the median, looping back [...]

Site should be a lot faster and more stable now. I recently swtiched to a new host, because they had a pretty good deal. Or what would have been a good deal, were I ever able to get more than ~80kb/s down, and if my site wasn’t down at least once a day. I left [...]

I was just looking at my site data and noticed a new referrer.
I added the link to mallofmemphis.org when I first started this site, because I thought their LostMemphis page was very cool. I just noticed that someone at the site added a link to my page. I couldn’t find an email contact to shoot [...]

I ordered a TV card from Newegg, so I’ll get some better shots later, but you get the idea.

Way to go Godwin, you jackass. There’s no better way to make yourself look like a giant douchebag than to waste time and resources persuing a blogger that hurt your feelings.

Another Memphis blogger wrote an article about the CCC meeting here, so I won’t rehash. Go there if you want to read about the meeting.

I went and picked up a few cleaning supplies, some beer, a pack of smokes, etc at Ike’s on Union. I thought the total of $70 was a bit high, but then again I bought some stuff I don’t usually buy, and I never pay much attention to the prices, so I just paid it [...]

I switched hosts, so I was down for a day or so while the DNS settings resolved and I moved everything to a new server. I’m at Cirtex now. So far so good. Really cheap for what you get, cpanel, etc. I dig it. More posts coming, still working to make sure everything is right.

Occasionally, instead of simply walking down to the Second Street Shopper, or stopping at the Riverside Grocery and Deli, I’ll make the trip to midtown after work to buy beer. Why? Because Schnucks carries 12 packs of Newcastle. A 12 pack is easier to carry than two six packs when you park a block away [...]

I just called tech because I hard restarted my modem and it changed the password. I also got them to reset my bandwidth allocation because I went from 1.5MB to 6.0MB.
Speed test last night: 700kbps down.
Speed test today: 6500kbps down.
Hot. Action.
