Tree Gone

The lilac tree in my back yard is mostly firewood. The tree collapsed while it was being cut down. The roots looked rotted. I want to remove the rocks and put in grass. Removing the tree was the first step in that direction. Once I get the lawn in, I will plant at least one lilac tree, and maybe two.

January 2010

Guess it has been a little while. I've been working on my other domains. I tried to get TikiWiki to do my website on, but it just won't do what I want it to do. That is the latest for now.

Merry Christmas

The best thing I have heard in awhile:
As long as there are tests, there will be prayer in public schools.

Peace.

Website For a Friend

A friend of mine asked me to setup a website for her. It will be a website musical in nature, have an event calendar, some music and cool pictures, of course.

I started out with WordPress. I like how it is written, how it laid out. I had used it before and was willing to get back into it. After spending a night trying to get the calendar working, without success, I moved over to tikiwiki.

Tikiwiki kicks... er butt! (keeping it clean for mom) It is an awesomely powerful tool for running a website on. Another day and not a working calander, drupal was next.

Drupal would involve learning a whole new concept. It, along with tikiwiki, was almost overkill for what I was trying to accomplish.

joomla_15 is next.

Got a Fire, Finally

Well, it took three tries but I finally got a decent fire. Disappointed I didn't have a love one to share it with. OTHOH, I did try a romantic fire, several years ago. But firemen showing up because I set of the fire alarm just doesn't do it for a date.

It took three tries. The fire one never got going. I had the fire grate upside down. Corrected that little error and made attempt two. It made a good show and just fizzled out.

Try three yielded much better results. I loosely followed the steps as outline by the blog of Tim Ferriss. It worked out pretty good. Oh and I removed that pesky grate.

My one disappointment with the fire was a lack of heat. I remember when I was a kid the fires where very warm. We sat across the room from the fireplace and the whole room was very warm. I got heat near the fire... but not much in the room. Will have to try it again.

Take care.
