My blog. Personal thoughts, anecdotes, and musings.
(AP) – With his unique baritone ? a mix of velvet and gravel ? R&B great Barry White was the voice of America’s bedroom, his throbbing compositions conspiring with purring vocals to seduce fans for over three decades. White, who had kidney failure from years of high blood pressure, died Friday at age 58. He had been undergoing dialysis and had been hospitalized since a September stroke.
I’m heading out to see the fireworks… hoping to have some videos to post when I get back. It’s going to be cool! Mom and Dad were over today and we grilled bratwurst outside. It was a pretty cold morning until around noon when it really heated up. For awhile, we thought it would rain, but it turned out to be a really warm day. I spent some time with my dad after Mom went to work.

Check out this fun HomeRun Rally game I found on the net. It’s pretty simple, but I think it’s a neat use of Flash. The graphics are pretty decent too.
I’ve been getting back into karate again, more seriously this time. I have no choice.. I have two students now who are very interested in learning whatever I can teach them. I enjoy it because it makes me work harder; I get a chance to really analyze how different moves work. It’s a great workout and it’s really an awesome way to build up endurance and stay in shape.

Well, as you can see, everything’s working again. I installed a new FTP server in the hopes that it would solve my problems, and it certainly did. However, if you can’t get access to the server anymore, you’d better let me know.
I’ve been trying for a week to publish to my blog with no success. Blogger changed how they publish my entries and I had to learn some stuff about FTP to get it working. They also changed interfaces on me again, and I don’t like this new one.
Blogger took longer than I’d hoped to migrate my blog, but it appears that
everything is up and working again. I like the new interface they provide.
I love spam. I love it so much that I get to spend half of my day weeding through it to find my real messages. The best ones are the “Nigerian Money Hiding” scams out there. I found this great satire page on this subject. What a riot!
Well, my life is somewhat back in order, and I feel like I can finally put
some more time into this website. Summer makes me lazy, at least in terms of
spending time on the computer. I’ve been outside a lot more, spending time
with family and friends, shooting baskets, doing the karate thing, bike riding,
etc.
