Reality TV
I don't know a whole lot about the whole reality TV show craze, (I actually haven't seen a single one) but since this is a blog, I feel liberated to spout my views on the subject. There is an article in the Pittsburgh paper a couple of days ago regarding a former Pittsburgh priest, who has... (More)

Bits
Jonathan has been very happy with his bits recently, asking for them a lot. He is never bored with the picture bits, but I have had to scale down on the math and reading cards. However, the other day I discovered a way to show the math dots that keeps him riveted. I say the number several... (More)

All Natural
Today's comic in Jon's Dilbert page-a-day calendar has Dogbert saying "Hello, this is Dogbert's All-Natural and Holistic Tech Support. . .Try stuffing tree bark in the CD drive and meditating. . . No, of course it won't damage anything, it's all natural!" As anyone who knows us knows, we're quite... (More)

Seat Assignments
We are on our way to Vermont to spend a weekend with my family, and I printed out our boarding passes earlier today, and the web page asked me if I wanted to change my seat assignment. There were two choices that looked better, though one pair of seats was all the way in the front, which... (More)

PHP Zip Uploader Script
I wrote this script a while back to upload (via HTTP) a zip file full of .pbm files, convert all the pictures to bitmaps, put the bitmaps in a zip file, and then send it back to the user.I don't know how secure it is, so I wouldn't leave it around published somewhere on a server, but... (More)

Keys and Locks
I have been locking the file cabinet because Jonathan not only likes to pull the drawers (which is fine) but he also likes to pull out the papers in the drawers (not fine!) Just now he was sitting on my lap and he saw the keys on the table. He asked for them and I gave them to him. He... (More)

Frequently Used Bus Schedules
This post isn't much use to anyone else, unless they want to try to stalk us and find us at the bus stops. Here are (or at least, here will be) lists of busses that we take often to get various places. This way, Heather won't have to do as much work in the future. To Kuhns :... (More)

Web Washer
I just realized that I haven't ever mentioned my Windows HTTP proxy server that I use. Web Washer is very useful. It turns out that yesterday was the two year anniversary of my using it on this computer. In that time, it has filtered: 227,646 images, 30,746 popups, 53,413 scripts, and... (More)

Christmas Adventures Part 2
The night we arrived (Monday) was "Christmas Eve" so we each opened our one present from "Mr. Ho" and filled the stockings for the morning. It turns out that Santa had also visted Bermuda, because we each received a souvenir ornament from Bermuda. "Christmas" morning was leisurely, as Mom had to... (More)

BM
Warning: this post has to do with potty training and bowel movements. Those who do not wish to read such things should not click the "more" link. The new little potty we got Jonathan is great for urination, but it is not quite right for bowel movements. He does his best when squatting all the... (More)

New Version of Plog
I downloaded the development version of plog, and it is likely to be a little bumpy the next couple of days. The current schedule says it will be released in March, and I am planning on helping out. I have been working on the code behind the scenes anyway, but since I was working on the older... (More)

Frozen Pipes
We woke up this morning (5ish) to no water in our upstairs bathroom. The downstairs sink was fine, which had been trouble before, so maybe I actually fixed that last year. The temperature was 9 degrees Fahrenheit, and typically, we have had trouble once it gets to the teens. We set up a... (More)

Plog Plugins
I decided to write a post to describe the features of the plugins that I wrote, and upgrades that I made to existing plugins to others can benefit from their use as well. You can see the actual source code, or else read my feeble descriptions. User Comments by Jon Daley : Description:... (More)

Plog Template Update
It had always annoyed me that you couldn't use smarty commands in the stylesheet files in plog. It turns out it wasn't that hard to figure out, and the original authors had it basically done, but if you believe the comments, didn't think it worked yet. It is helpful to change... (More)

Version Manager Setup
Whether you know the program as Merant, Serena or PVCS, the setup is difficult, and despite the sales department insistence that you don't need a full-time person to run their servers, I am starting to doubt it. Here are the instructions to setup a new project using the file server model... (More)
