Another Warm February Day

  • 12 Feb, 2005

So what’s up with this weather? No snow and temps in the 50s?! Come on. Here it’s only February 12th and we have no snow on the ground and temps warm enough to wear shorts in. This has to be one the saddest Minnesota winters ever. So far I think our snow total is up […]

Wisconsin Quarter Mix-Up

  • 10 Feb, 2005

So I’ve been hearing about the Wisconsin quarter issue and how some are worth big bucks. So I looked it up on the internet and came across this forum thread and found something interesting. The quarter I picked up off our dresser has no up or down leaf. Is that normal? What am I missing […]

Some Useful Sites

  • 8 Feb, 2005

Every day someone comes along with a new site that helps you do something new. Well lately I’ve found a few sites that I like and find useful so I thought I’d share. Technorati – Mainly blog posts, this site has the most up to date information available. Search for something that was on TV […]

Happy SuperBowl Sunday

  • 6 Feb, 2005

Happy Superbowl Sunday all. I’m routing for the commercials even though I think I’ll be disappointed again. I’m interested in seeing the Apple ones of course. 😉 Plus the Simpsons Superbowl special afterwards and the American Dad show look awesome too!! Should be fun.

Making My Car Happy

  • 5 Feb, 2005

Well I finally treated my car to some updates. It got an oil change and a 60,000 mile check up. It wasn’t the cheapest but I took it to Precision Tune Auto Care and I feel they did a great job. No major issues either! After that I took it to the car wash to […]

Spam. The ongoing battle.

  • 1 Feb, 2005

The one downside to WordPress I’ve found so far is the spam issue. Whether it’s in the comments or now in the trackbacks. However, this is a small price to pay for WordPress and there are workarounds. I think I’ve stopped the comment spam by adding the ‘preview’ button to the comments. This involves a […]

Comment Spam! Someone help.

  • 30 Jan, 2005

When I installed WordPress I also installed spam stopper. That worked pretty good until recently. So far today I’ve gotten 30 comment spams. They are all moderated so the public doesn’t see them but it’s still a pain in the butt. Can anyone suggest a good spam stopping method? Since spam is all just bots […]

Creation of MacThemes includes Me

  • 21 Jan, 2005

As I was checking out the sites (via RSS) that I do on a daily basis I came across the history of MacThemes.net. I skimmed though the article on how the basis for the site was thought up and created and what did I see? Me! 😀 They were nice enough to mention my brief […]

Safari Firefox Theme

  • 20 Jan, 2005

I’ve been looking all over for a good Safari theme for Firefox and finally ran across one that has potential. Ran Aroussi has created a great Safari FireFox theme that has a lot going for it. Not only does it use the Safari buttons, it also adds in brushed metal. Granted it’s still under construction […]

Toy Story 3 Without Pixar

  • 20 Jan, 2005

Disney has decided to go on with Toy Story without Pixar. The sequel happy company already has a script for Toy Story 3 and probably is already working on it. I doubt it can be as good as the others seeing as they took out Pixar and Disney sequels don’t do that great. However I’m […]
