Please don’t waste your time – and mine – astroturfing here.  I’ll just delete the comments as soon as I see them.

I really, really welcome genuine comments on any of the posts I’ve ever written (the ajax logfile tailer & the elliptical mileage calculation posts are especially popular), and I read them all.  But the moment I determine you’re fronting a comment for advertising purposes, it gets deleted without a second thought.

Save yourself the trouble, really.

Yesterday, @pkedrosky mentioned having watched a great Pink Floyd documentary on VH1.  I searched around a bit, and though I couldn’t locate the entire program, I did find these six parts.

Edit: The videos have been removed due to Terms of Use Violations… I’ll get some good sets up there – there are many.

Sometimes this stuff just comes to me & I have no choice.

I watched the temperature in Littleton, the nearest town with an official weather feed, climb from 2 to 3, and now 4 degrees F.

I may have to remove my fleece…

Today, it is cold.  Actually, it is very, very cold in most of Colorado today.  That’s theme #1.  Theme #2 is Wordpress themes.

I’ve used Wordpress since 2005 or earlier (I began testing it before I made the switch), and one of the reasons I’ve stuck with it is the theme metaphor.  I appreciate the ease with which I can made visual presentation changes, with almost no coding effort at all.  The folks who’ve developed themes & made them freely available are to be thanked.

Yesterday & again this morning I tried several new themes and have settled into one that I really like.  A couple of tweaks later, and this feels like what I’ve wanted for quite some time.
