Singapore and Thailand 2008

Saturday, August 16th, 2008

I’ve finally gotten around to finishing tagging, titling and describing my trip to Singapore and Thailand that occurred in March (!!) of this year.  I know that it is really late, but I guess it is better than never.  I put all the pictures up on flickr for people to check out.  Since I’ve got [...]


Cache Miss

Plus, it made the page much slower, and harder to work with. As part of the front-end change, I rewrote the back-end. Now, [...]


Lots of New Stuff

Tuesday, January 3rd, 2006

First of the new things, Happy New Year! It doesn’t yet feel like a new year, but I’m sure it’ll kick in soon enough. Secondly, I finally decided to go ahead and get some real hosting going on. I eventually decided upon BlueHost as they had a good deal with all I wanted out of [...]
