In which I do some maintenance. For the good of the household. When I got on the laptop today, there was a new icon in the systray and every few minutes it would launch a popup to tell me that the machine is infested with spyware. I think it came bundled with a codec I […]
In which there was an electronic exchange between myself and my bro-there. Jayrob 7:03 pm: These are the ducks at my work telling me about the day. Mush 7:08pm: Egad! Quackers! Where’s the soup? Jayrob 9:23pm: Every day those lil fuckers waddle right up to me on my break and try to control my mind. […]
In which Vuboq thinks I’m crazy. I say watermelon is sold by the pound. Vuboq says they’re sold by the piece. What do you think? Fifteen of the first 17 votes were Vuboq, btw. RESULTS ARE IN!: 4 to 20, in favor of by the pound.
In which I babble about a few unrelated things – mostly technical, some travel. Three days ago I installed a WP plugin called Bad Behavior. It stops bots from leaving comments on the site, and therefore reduces bandwidth usage. In the brief time Bad Behavior’s been installed, it’s stopped 1680 access attempts. Which makes me […]
In which we talk about comments spam and ID3 tags. We’ve been getting utterly hammered here at goblinbox by spam comment bots for lo, these past 12 hours, and Askimet isn’t catching them because they don’t have any links and they’re not from known IPs! It’s crazy! Bandwidth-eatin’ mofos, a pox upon you all: I’ve […]
In which the Robot Party is currently in full swing! You should come over! Isn’t the food cute? AmmZon busted her ass today preparing all this wonderfulness. She rocks. When I rolled into the kitchen at four, she left to run errands and I finished up, making the sandwiches and the pickled mushrooms. There was […]
In which my day job gets in the way of my napping. The gig last night was fun. (I’m a backup singer. Whee!) I got fewer than five hours of sleep last night, and there’s another gig tonight. I’m strung out! YAY! I took series of clerical tests at a temp agency yesterday morning. I […]
In which it’s raining like hell, and me with only one windshield wiper. The weather’s here, wish you were beautiful. Oh, wait, you are beautiful! Well, it’s just started raining cats and dogs here and Truck and I are leaving in a few minutes to drive to Ottumwa for a gig. On the porch a […]
In which I’m overhung. (Shh. Be vewy quiet. Pweese.) KR apparently stopped at every microbrewery between Ellensburg, WA and here and bought beer, so he had a tasting party at his house last night! I liked the Rodeo IPA. I also liked eating J’s fresh salsa. Yum. After nine, most of us wandered over to […]
