Not a legend but the name was fun. This is just the random stuff I've thought about and want to remember. If you find it useful, hurray! If not, you'll know me better anyway.

My Name & Quest
Today is day one of the January 2015 Blogging 101 class, and guess who joined up this time? I’ve had blogs for more than a decade now. I even help others with WordPress! While I understand all of the technical aspects of running a site, I have never focused on learning how to blog well. I’ve […]
Moregeeks on vacataion
I get my kids all week this week, so I took some time off work for “vacation.” But did I take them to Disneyland? No. Amid hikes, home organization, a birthday (mine!), a wedding (not mine!), and a dozen other random things we have going, I challenged my kids to build a Pokémon Database. That’s […]
MoreWhat is FOSS?
I’m speaking at Utah Open Source conference next weekend. Yes, it will be a geekfest, but to say FOSS is only for geeks is like saying cupcakes are only for bakers. This is a cupcake I made recently. I found a frosting recipe online, tweaked it to my liking, and then shared my changes with […]
MoreNerds Gone Wild
My wildest spring break ever involved an impromptu road trip to Tuscon with my little brother just a few months before I got married. We alternated listening to cassette tapes of Simon and Garfunkel and the first Matrix soundtrack, drove through a crazy blizzard, and bought a wicked chess set in Nogales. Yes I know, […]
More“You know you’re a geek when…”
What a day. This morning I woke up to a missing NTLDR that turned out to be a corrupt MBR. I didn’t have an MCE CD because this is a newer HP that wants me to make full drive backups to use for FDISK/Format in lieu of reinstalling. So I tried making a bootable flash […]

MoreNew and Improving
Welcome to the new web site structure. If you notice a difference, kudos to you. But I know the difference and now you will too: In addition to a few minor stylistic changes, private blogs are actually private now.. hurray! I’ll have the portfolio sections separated, and they’ll even be updated soon to show a […]
MoreHands On Web Hosting
I’ve been hosting with handsonwebhosting for over two years. Now I do technical support for them, but I’d post this whether I worked there or not. This site runs on the ultralite package that includes PHP and MYSQL for under five dollars a month. They also have reseller packages. Because the company is still somewhat […]
MoreWorking on the website
I am about to unleash the power of mysql and php! From here on out, the site will have a news feed area, a special area for friends and family, and best of all it will be really easy to keep everything updated. It’s been a bit of a scary process. I knew some sql, […]
