Stuff worth writing about
Two amusing screenshots from earlier this week. Click ‘em to make ‘em bigger.
Apparently Team Fortress 2 hasn’t been updated since the Johnson administration.
And apparently EA wants you to pay a little protection money. In case something should “happen” to your files. We wouldn’t want there to be an “accident.”
Check out my new home page. It looks a lot better than the old placeholder did. It took about an hour to create.
After seeing part of the democratic debates on TV a couple of nights ago, I think that this is an entirely accurate portrayal of how ABC would handle the Lincoln-Douglas debates:
LINCOLN: In my opinion, slavery will not cease, until a crisis shall have been reached and passed. “A house divided against itself cannot stand.” I believe this government cannot endure permanently half slave and half free.
STEPHANOPOULOS: Excuse me, did an Elijah H. Johnson attend your church?
LINCOLN: When I was a boy in Illinois forty years ago, yes. I think he was a deacon.
STEPHANOPOULOS: Are you aware that he regularly called Kentucky “a land of swine and whores”?
LINCOLN: Sounds right — his ex-wife was from Kentucky.
STEPHANOPOULOS: Why did you remain in the church after hearing those statements?
LINCOLN: I was eight.
DOUGLAS: This is an important question George — it’s an issue that certainly will be raised in the fall.
STEPHANOPOULOS: Do you denounce him?
LINCOLN: I’d like to get back to the divided house if I may.
STEPHANOPOULOS: Do you denounce and reject him?
LINCOLN: If it will make you shut up, yes, I denounce and reject him.
STEPHANOPOULOS: Do you denounce and reject him with sugar on top?
LINCOLN: Yes.
There’s more. Frankly, no matter who wins, I’ll be glad when the election season is over.
I’m in the process of updating to Wordpress version 2.5. The site may look weird for a few minutes.
OK, I think we’re good now. Fingers are crossed, but I think I’ve fixed the problems that cropped up in the theme. Let me know if anything looks obviously wrong.
On the good side, they redesigned the backend that I’m using right now to type this, and it’s a lot prettier. Much less messy. So far, I approve.
Jared Axelrod played The Ballad of Barry Allen, and I’ve listened to it a half-dozen times today. It’s about the downside of super-speed.
When I upgraded Wordpress to the latest version today, I discovered that the K2 Sidebar Manager had disappeared and that the original Wordpress sidebar widgets had reasserted themselves.
To fix that, I installed the Disable Wordpress Widgets plugin. The K2 widgets instantly reappeared.
This man may want to check into AA.
I thought that this said “Victorian Boxers Revolution.” That would have been *much* more entertaining.
