Gale Force Winds

There isn't a good term for gale-force winds that flatten your tent out on the plains of South Dakota and send you running to your car, realizing that it isn't necessarily so safe either and running farther to the cinderblock bathroom structure to wait out the thunder and lightning that ...

I See You

I got all worked up about Many Eyes until I discovered that I couldn't quite load any of the visualizations because my Java setup isn't what it should be. Then I actually met someone from Many Eyes and got inspired to ask for advice. I got some: One of ...

Ask Cherry Crush (they’re fragile, dude)

Silly Server, That’s Not Your Mail

The Frankenserver walks again ... I finally figured out that the frankenserver, which serves web service for example.com and examplefoundation.org doesn't know that it is not the mail server for these domains.

Stinking Rotten Stupid Database. Grumble.

I have this database all defined for postgres. It is complex beyond necessity. Waaay beyond necessity, and it is making me all mad.

What I really want to know is if there is an easier way? Why are these constraint references breaking down? I'm not used to constraints. Also, does postgres just not need commas?

Making Up For It

My knee hurts, my neck hurts, there's no milk for my tea and the quiche I bought for lunch because my lunch date canceled was just so-so. However, between this (via Jenna) and that, I think I'll live. Also, I've joined Arif's food writing cabal.
