Tersosity

• It’s an odd sort of thing to have been right about, since how “happy” should I really be that there WAS a housing bubble and excess lending? #
• It was obvious by 2003 when I started blogging and periodically mentioning it. #
• @chucksimmins Ah, you were thinking I was talking a permalinks change within WP itself. I set the permalinks as needed from the start… #
• @chucksimmins Learned my lesson, because a plugin like this one didn’t work on the blog I tried it on. #
• @chucksimmins My prob is that I need a link to the OLD blog to go to the NEW location of the OLD blog, rather than error page. #
• blogblivion.com/index.php/site/… needs to redirect to blogblivion.com/EEBLOG/index.php/site/… #
• @chucksimmins Well, maybe I’ll load it and see if it takes instructions well. #
• Weird. Far as I can tell, that plugin simply duplicates what already exists in WP’s settings. Broke the blog by causing recursion, anyway. #
• @chucksimmins Oh, not a problem. I thought if it wrote to htaccess it might be adaptable. #
• @Shurakai Are you sure that’s the link you intended? In tweet about web hosting? #
• @Shurakai They’re apparently known for being bad, and I’ve seen them complained about vociferously recently. #
• @Shurakai Not Dream Host. People seem to like Blue Host. I’ve always had luck with Hosting Matters, though some plans from others these days #
• @Shurakai are heftier in specs and/or lower in prices. Your GD hosting is likely to seem worse than most you could select, so… #
• Dishes done. Shame to do them after kids are asleep and I could be *working* but easier, since the kids are asleep. #
• Was going to sit down & plow into stuff, but now inexorably sleepy & lost. #
• Problem all web hosts face is commoditization & steadily lowering prices. #
• Sometime it’s confusing to have 3 mice on the same desk. #
• @michellis7 A fine opportunity to practice for a future career as a diplomat. #
• @andrewbarnett Well, I’m thinking web hosts particularly, with the bandwidth thing. In 1998 I paid $1200 for what’s now under $100 hosting. #
• @chucksimmins That’s what’s required for differentiation. Service, reputation, responsiveness too. For their part, maximum efficiency. #
• It’s not a big bucks, high profit business, but then maybe it wasn’t at $1200 a year either, but I got “how high” service for sure. #
• @michellis7 Diplomat? Your father. Also people who work for the State Department dealing with uppity furriners without provoking Sarajevos. #
• @michellis7 The Sarajevo part was intentionally obscure shorthand for starting a war, as an incident there sparked WW1. #
• @michellis7 But the schools do a great job teaching history, so you’ll cover that at some point, even if you didn’t already. #
• @michellis7 Also, furriners is a funny misspelling of foreigners. Thus, well, what your father diplomatically said. #
• @michellis7 I’m actually known for being diplomatic, and tend to be the nexus, the guy everyone likes, works with well, remembers, etc. #
• @jeffjarvis Happy birthday! #
• @deanesmay Happy birthday! #
• Hey NYT, or you could say “inflation pushes gas & food prices higher.” #
• @arnonel I use Twitter Tools to put tweets on blog. Best in digest format. Comes out weird as singles b/c tweet text=post title & post text. #
• Doh. WordPress inserted the code for stripping index.php from a URL, so even if I redirect old permalinks I have to account for that. #
• Just realized I must need more coffee if I feel this relaxedly vacant. #
• Wow. Henry is soooo allergic to dairy. We did a skin contact experiment with plain organic yogurt on his back. #
• Need to find my direction for the day. At least I have a clear set of errands, as emphasized by the lack of anything I want to eat in house. #
• Isn’t T-Mobile kind of going backwards by raising messaging rates to 20 cents each? #
• Started with paying T-Mobile, so of course their online payment system is down, but I saw the rate announcement. #
• Crackers are on the grocery list. There’s at least 1 kind the baby can eat & they’re handy, #
• I seem to be down at least another pound. Hard to read whether it was on the 7 or all the way to the 6. Conservatively, that’s down 61. #
• @Shurakai I am 99% sure ours is unlimited, and seen no indication otherwise while tweeting & texting Deb at work. #
• It’s also worked out useful that Deb’s phone has web. She can catch up on news during lunch breaks. #
• @Shurakai Cue the obvious cow woman jokes. #
• Well THAT ought to improve our mileage! Not to mention tire life. #
• @sekimori Not grok Firefly? Sheesh. @abigvictory You should really watch the series, too. Then the movie again. #
• Downtown Middleboro was 89 degrees when I passed through there on my way to inflate the tires. Felt it, too. #
• Time to make the donuts. Er… burgers, and maybe fries. #
• @Shurakai She’s not on Twitter. Have you tried phoning in your request? #
• Girls want grilled cheese & tomato soup. Sadie didn’t *see* the cans of soup, yet somehow knew I’d bought it. How do they do that? #
• Sitting for a few with stove off & half constructed sandwiches on counter, waiting to be able to use my kitchen without “help” from kids. #
• @sharone75 You have to go to your list of followees and specify each one you want to go to your phone. #
• @sharone75 Click “device updates” to on. I have it on for 5-6 of you and not for the other way too many. #
• @PeoriaPundit Assuming they don’t also control your domain, they’d have no choice. #
• @neatlytangled Aw, so cute! And Sadie is allowing this? Is she well? #
• Of all things, dude upstairs using charcoal grill out back is filling office with fumes. AFTER the fan’s on exhaust & other fan’s off. #
• Fumes, too, more than “smoke.” As if I am in a closed room where charcoal is being used with suicidal intent. #
