The New Website

November 20th, 2008

So what’s new?

My new website.  I think its coming along ok.  I’m learning as I go, kind of like “pay as you go” - something like that.  I added more pictures to the slide show and, I’ve added some captions to some of the pictures that are shown below in the “Gallery” section.

I’m still trying to learn how to set up galleries by names or albums.  Basically, I want to set up 1 gallery per subject of interest - ex. Long’s Peak 2007, Leadville 100 - 2007, Family, Dogs, da da da.  Then, I want to have it where you click on a gallery and it takes you to that album but the background is semi-transparent like, what you’re kind of seeing when you click on any of the gallery pics on the main page.  If anyone has an idea how to do that please shoot your idea my way.  Thanks.

I also added the “Le Wine Quiz”.  I get a wine newsletter every week and in the letter there is always a cool wine quiz.  I like that.  So, I’ve added some of the wine questions from that newsletter that I find interesting.  You can access the quiz by looking above this journal entry (up & to the left) just below my name.  Its to the right of “about”.

That leads me to another question.  Why am I doing another journal/blog thing?  I swore that I would never do such a thing for as long as I live.  I didn’t really swear anything, I’m just doing it.  I don’t know why.  And, I don’t know for how long or how consistent I will be entering useful information like this in this journal.

I think I’m going to do quotes.  I like quotes - good quotes.  I’ll search high and low for great quotes for the day.  Some will be serious.  Some will be sad.  Some will be happy.  Some will be deep.  Some will be stupid.  All will be fun.

I’m going to have to see how I can incorporate a wildlife inventory into this thing.  Hmm…I’ll have to give that one more thought.  In the mean time, I’ve posted the new lottery numbers for the lottery pool I manage.  If you look some where to the right of this writing you’ll see a ‘lottery page pool” link.  If you are interested in joining The Lottery Pool just let me know.  The membership is cheap.  We just require you to chop off your pinky with a machete.  Nothing big.

Oh, btw, I watched Quantum of Solace last weekend!  It was totally awesome!  The best bond movie yet!  You gotta see it.  The six fingered girl is pretty hot.

That’s about all I dare to say for right now.  I’ll keep updating this site as I learn new things.  I’ll have more recipes in the near future.  Thanks for taking the time to read through this nonsense.

Later,

Frustrating

November 19th, 2008

I’m still trying to learn how to work with Wordpress.  I like it but I still don’t know it well.

Like, I really want to get rid of that line under my name on the upper left hand corner that says something like: “just another wordpress weblog”.

I’m heading out to church right now but will work on it more later.

How does the slide show look so far?  I’m still learning that as well.

It can be so friggin frustrating.

Ok, that’s it for now.

Thanks.
