Rough Around the Edges
Baby, it's Dan. Please, baby, take me back. I can treat you good again, I swear.
As you can see I've been playing with the site a little bit. I installed the all-new version of Movable Type (the publishing software I've been using since 2002). I must say, 4.01 is to 3.2 as Mac is to Windows. There's a plethora of new features and gimmicks for the using, but their execution is not immediately apparent. Don't be surprised to find the whole thing undergoing constant changes in the coming weeks. The style is stock, but the new modular template system has me a little halted at the moment.
I suppose this is the point when we should start planning some Xmas party, eh? I've received only a few comments about scheduling so far, but this is the official all-call. I hope to have all of the info I need by the end of the week, and maybe I'll use Facebook to issue appointments next weekend. I am suggesting, as a start-off point, that the party be the Saturday before Xmas. The 22nd, starting late afternoon early evening. Venue, I will assume to start, will be a traditional Treehouse setting. If people want to have the standard pot-luck and round-robin-fuck-your-neighbor gift exchange, let me know and we'll issue the rules immediately. Leave comments below regarding your preferences and I'll get the info out as soon as I can.
The Mrs. and I just returned from seeing The Golden Compass. I had read the books (His Dark Materials) a number of years ago and forgotten most of the plot points. It was pretty good, though Shannon argues that they jumbled a few things around for cinematic smoothness. The next movie-of-note as far as I am concerned is I Am Legend. Call me queer, but Will Smith can do almost no wrong, in my book.
What am I listening to now? Why, let's consult Last.fm. I've dropped a plugin in on the right, so now more "Now Listening To" boxes on my posts. Your disappointed, I know.
It's time to score some food, perhaps I'll update again soon.

Dan, you are queer. Will Smith just plain sucks.
But, he's a Prince. A Fresh-Prince, if you will.
PS it doesnt seem like your RSS feed works right now
Fixed the RSS feed. Bad data in the import from the old database. I apologize for the inconvenience.
