Last night, I was using my wife’s PC laptop to test a web site in Internet Explorer, which nicely reminded my that 11 Critical Updates were needed. After running these and restarted, the machine was totally frozen about 90% into the startup sequence. It was toast. Stretching my minimal PC rescue skills, I was able […]
Someone out there has been working at hacking this web server. I am so #&$^$ing tired of wasting my time rebuilding it, trying to fortify it, being a server den mom is not in my interest. This web server provides free services such as Feed2JS and the cheerful barkings of this blog among others. Frankly, […]
Some people may pay heed to the title of Glen Campbell songs (who is a local, and has even taken tours of the Phoenix Jail) and give me a call or email before landing at Sky Harbor Airport. Micheal Roy, from Wesleyan, and I have exchanged emails for a few years but have always missed […]
I’ve been hibernating but not necessarily in a subconscious state. First it was the Thanksgiving cold that decided to stay at least a week. Then it was the rush at the deadline of our Learning Grants applications, our internal grants program that has a 100% online application and review system (which means about 100% of […]

I am still liking the Glu. It seems SuprGlu is gaining some traction (judging from seeing other Glu-ers out there, Jay Cross, Tim Lauer, Scottish Educators, I am sure there are many more) and some new features (judging from poking around the site). My CogDogBlog RipMixGlu Feed File now has a few more RSS things […]
I cannot believe how lucky I am to get so many valuable offers for everything un-imaginable– people I do not even know are nice enough to personally email me with great things to improve my life: You’ve been nominated, Thanks to a private nomination, you are now eligable to obtain an official University Degree. Obtain […]
Trying to make a doctor appointment, I am on hold, and what music comes piping in? It is Led Zeppelin doing Whole Lotta Love, not some muzaked version (I had an elevator experience with a Muzakized Stairway to Heaven). Yup, Dr G’s office phone is rockin’: You need coolin’, baby, I’m not foolin’, I’m gonna […]
