For the past few months I’ve been living off of a very stripped down version of my normal setup here on my trusty MacBook Pro. Occasionally I’ll dig through my backup image to get an Application, a file or some preferences. One thing that I had not transferred back was NetNewsWire, my RSS reader.

Among my normal feeds, like slashdot and gizmodo, was a feed to my cousin John Kauffman‘s blog. In an abstract way it kept me close family in Florida more than I had in the past and John’s sardonic sense of humor follows closely to my own.

I still haven’t transferred NetNewsWire back, but on a whim I checked it’s online version at NewsGator. Glancing through some of the posts I found some disturbing references. I quickly found the root of the issue:

Well, the week between Jesus Day and the End-of-the-World-as-We-Know-It was meant to be super quiet at work. It wasn’t (isn’t…)

Complain, complain, complain.

I think it may be either time to scrap this site and start over or make an effort to really post more often.

oh well…

Months go by and I didn’t even notice. I mean, its not like anyone emailed me, wondering where the new posts are. No one, but me reads this thing, but still… MONTHS!?!

I guess that is not entirely outside the realm of possibility.

In five minutes I’ll be late for my next client and I thought that since I’ve wasted enough time already that I’d make a quick post.

thanks for all of your patience.

Who cares, I’m tired and I’m sure that I’ll forget to do this later. So, here you go. A brand new version. Live and untested. Full of the world greatest bugs. I’m sure that they’ll compliment the writing. (remember, I hate to use the spell checker…)

I just paused, for like, thirty seconds. So I’m done for tonight.

well, i wasn’t about to let two whole years go buy. a big move, a real job and an attempt to make everything database driven sure has put a damper on things though. anyway… something might happen soon.

i don’t know who you japanese are looking for, but i sure am getting a hell of a lot of hits from you. anywhere from 25 – 50% of my hits in a day (via the videomoon.com domain parked on top of me) are coming from .jp domains. over eight thousand hits from this month alone. for a piddly sight like mine, that is quite a bit. granted you arn’t looking at much, “local” .com and .net bytes transfered are twice as much with half the hits. also granted, this sight, along with every other webserver in the world, is getting hit on a constant basis by virus attacks. but i can’t believe that the number of infected computers in japan is *that* high. so tell me, what are you looking for? if your from japan and are passing through, just hit that email button up there to the right and give me a clue. i’ve done a few passing google searches, nothing fancy, just to see my name pop up, but haven’t found anything interesting. so, if you arn’t interested in my sight, you’re not a virus and actually a live person looking for something you must be looking for porn. sorry, no sailor moon hentai here. do you guys actually watch that stuff? eh, who am i do judge. if that is the case, spread the word around. nothing here on those lines. for anyone else who happens to read this. check back in a couple of weeks. i’m doing some more research on my .jp phenomenon and hope to have something humorous for your reading pleasure.
