April Fool’s

ByMike McBride Reading Time: 1 minute

After reading about how AOL bought out the rights to a bunch of popular bloggers today, I realize that there is absolutely nothing I can put up here that anyone is likely to take seriously. (Of course, how seriously do you take me any other day? *L*) While I prefer to think of this day as something else, (April 1, 2000 was the first date that Angela and I went on. We saw Hi-Fidelity and had dinner at Applebee’s, and naturally, ran into a co-worker when we were trying to keep our office romance a secret.) to most of the world it is the day to not believe a word anyone says! So given that, let me just say that I did get the blog associated with my child abuse site moved over to this server and all the links updated to point to it here from there. It’s not a regular part of this site, but it does need some work, so I may be focusing on that until this April Fool’s craziness is over!

    The other thing I need to figure out is about using Outlook to forward email. We don’t have an Exchange Server so I can’t just forward it at the server level, I have to leave my PC running with Outlook open. (Locking down the PC, naturally) Then I use Rules to simply forward all the…

    Mike Sanders, blogging’s philosopher in residence, has been having cross-blog conversations about “community”. Being in that same thoughtful mode I was yesterday, (What can I say, my work is lacking in the intellectual challenge department right now!) I would like to add my thoughts on community: When I first discovered the idea of “blogging”, it…

    OK not really, it is Monday after all! But I figured I’d let you all in on the latest news surrounding this site. First, in old news the site for That Hosting Company is online again, with the simple message that there is a “Server Update in Progress, please check back in 60 minutes”. That…

    I went by the office where they moved the furniture around on Friday, and discovered that the PC is on the opposite wall from the Ethernet jack, and the Cat-5 cable is running across the middle of the office, about a foot off the floor. You have to step over it to get into the…
