2012 Draws Nigh

2012-11-20T20:14:00.001-06:00

I've been remiss about posting here. Looks like nothing since the end of last year. I'll try to step up.

Last Game 2011

2011-09-28T18:55:00.001-05:00

Before the game, Bert Blyleven, Dick Bremer, and Dan Gladden are out to congratulate John Gordon on his retirement after 25 years as the voice of the Twins.

Last Airport

2011-05-20T09:52:00.001-05:00

I guess we also land at an airport, so it's a little misleading. It is the last departure before we finally arrive! Gate is full, but plane not yet opened. We're supposed to depart in 15 mins.

Awake and Ready

2011-05-20T08:22:00.001-05:00

It is 3:20AM. I'm cean, dressed, brushed, and mostly rested. Shuttle leaves in about ten mins to the airport. Plane leaves at 5:30 or so.

Hawaii!

2011-05-20T02:23:00.001-05:00

Room to rest and shower, then back to airport at 3AM. Again...

LAX Remodel

2011-05-19T17:33:00.001-05:00

The airport is undergoing a facelift, so it's filled with tons of art-wrapped scaffolding.

In LAX

2011-05-19T16:12:00.001-05:00

Too close to next leg to leave airport, to long to be lurk in a restaurant.

Alone at the airport

2011-05-19T04:31:00.001-05:00

Starting our trip. Through security, bags checked, seeking coffee!

New Scoreboards

2011-04-09T11:27:00.001-05:00

Twins added a new scoreboard and light tower. They also removed the trees and painted that wall black. TC Bear was introduced and looked for the trees.

Droid Blogger Software

2011-02-22T08:57:00.001-06:00

Google might win this one... With time to spare, I poked around on the Android Market and found an official Blogger client for my Droid.

Not sure how to do things like seperate the introduction from the rest of a post, but it's kind of nice having a dedicated software instead of a message from the browser that I can't use the site. Sure, there's e-mail and SMS posting, but I'm wary...

2011-01-14T16:37:00.001-06:00

Snow sux. A little dusting and all the sheeple go demented.

Learned about More!

Just checking, but I thought I saw a post that allows an injection of the  comment in HTML that will allow "pages" in a blog post. Let's give it a shot.

Not So Mobile Friendly

2009-08-20T01:31:00.000-05:00

Seems even this blog isn't really mobile friendly, either. I should get on that.

Photo of Me

2009-01-09T20:12:00.000-06:00

Yes, I tried to make it creepy and in-yer-face. That's just the way I roll.

Goofing With Amazon Plug-in

2008-05-12T11:20:00.001-05:00

Look, if it worked, there's a cloud for Amazon to sell some stuff and pass on pennies to me!

Sure 'nuff

2007-04-04T15:14:00.000-05:00

Seems odd, but I can easily log in and out and reach the dashboard and do everything, even without the tell-tale blogger.com titlebar.

Probably still evident that it's blogger.com when trying to leave a comment. Wonder how to turn on anonymous comments, and what the dangers are therein. SPAM, I'd guess.

Nav bar gone

2007-04-04T15:05:00.000-05:00

Heh.

Found a way to hide the nav bar. Of course, it works against me 'cause now the dashboard link is gone.

Able to get back into it by editing a post and then re-navigating from there. Suppose as long as I'm logged into GMail I'm good.

New Long Post

2007-04-04T14:37:00.001-05:00

This is curious to me, how the post can just be freaking long and not bother anyone as they each shove the data all the way off the bottom. Someone ought to tell the blogger.com people about pagination.

It seems really weird that a person could just blather on and fill a screen with whatever rambling garbage falls out of their heads. This is just me blathering on about blathering just so I can come up with some lengthy stuff.

I'm not really trying to put anything useful to words, just take up space. I'm adding to the noise. I'm banging my own drum. Listening to my keys clatter.

Just to be bigger than before. I gotta see how long this is and how far down the page it shoves everything.

Of course, the whole reason for it is because I'm trying to recreate this for our site. Not because I think it needs to be this way, but because someone else does.

Long isn't always better. Well, maybe if you're trying to eat a candy bar. Then you want longer. Even then, longer isn't better. Maybe if it's a fiber candy bar, but that's an icky thought.

Candy bars aren't so icky, unless they've been in the sun too long. Then they're not icky, exactly, but messy. Messy can be icky, especially if the melting chocolate is oozing from the packaging and has meshed into the carpet or furniture.

Long enough?

Really Long Post

2007-01-10T15:12:00.000-06:00

Just curious what happens to the list of entries when the post is really long. There doesn't seem to be a forced page or preview kind of button, nor does there seem to be an indication of where a break might get placed in a post that exceeds a quick preview. Is it the case that the entire post is listed on the page, and you have to click separately to view the comments? That would make for some potentially obnoxiously long preview pages. How does the site keep the list manageable, or does it just allow the whole deal to scroll down?

It should be the case, that either everything is shown here, as is now suspected with the comments are separate idea, or that snippets are shown here.

What happens on the main page? Is it just the title? Is it just a note that the blog has been updated? How is it handled if there's more than one post from the same blog?

Organization baffles me sometimes.

Adding Content

2007-01-10T15:11:00.000-06:00

This is just me adding some content. Need to see the division of entries and arrangement of comments, etc.

First Entry

2007-01-09T18:12:00.000-06:00

Every web log has to have a first entry. This is mine. You can copy it if you want, but you can't have my first entry completely. I've already done it.

See, here it is.
