If only we all thought through starting a blog as well as Ted.

Please Sir, May I Have Some More?

No one likes a whiner; therefore I haven't written to my blog lately.

Here are a few quick list of things happening right now:

1. After nine years working independently, I'm looking for a full-time salary job, wish me luck!
2. I've been doing volunteer work for WebKit. WebKit is the web engine behind Apple's Safari web browser.
3. PT Wetter 3 is actively remaking his to-do system, Frictionless. I will be trying this out tonight.
4. I have been fixing-up my 1993 Volvo 850 GLT sedan. It's got 179,000 miles and going strong.
5. Now that it is past 15 May it's Summer in this part of Arizona.

Major Moto

I like Zeldman's work, so I loaded one of his templates for this blog. Turns out that Zeldman doesn't use his own template these days. Oh well.

Since I was planning on taking the design apart and making it my own; I used it anyway. "It" being Zeldman's "Mr. Moto" template.

In hacking through the template, I found the following error:

Originally:
Variable name="bodyFont" description="Text Font" type="font" default="normal normal 100% 'tahoma Trebuchet MS', ...

Corrected:
Variable name="bodyFont" description="Text Font" type="font" default="normal normal 100% tahoma, 'Trebuchet MS', ...

Then there was the 3-pixel height the heading got pushed down the page. I still haven't firgured that one out, yet. But I did force the headline back into place. That was and is still a frustrating bug.

Thought Dump

Well, here we go again with a new blog. Google takes over Blogger; we will see if they can make an even better go of it than Blogger did by themselves.

If things go well, I'll be logging lots of trivial personal, tech, political, and other thoughts and seemingly random factoids. Posting here means I would encourage comments if you have them.
