Did you know that bird people live in the Underground Kingdom? You would if you choose to 'Enter the Cave' and turned to page 5.
Yesterday I got my Clear Hub Express for wireless 3g internet. The initial setup was straightforward and I was soon online with the default network ID and password. I like to have my network settings much tighter, so I needed to get into the modem admin screen. The 'quick start' guide supplied with the modem said to surf to 'http://cleardmodem' in your browser to administrate. This address does not work! The correct address is 'http://clearmodem'.
Jerk offs!
I got the above free embed-able hCard by visiting bvcard.com. They also provide downloadable vCards.
After upgrading to OSX 10.8, I no longer needed Growl installed because of the built-in notification system. After uninstalling Growl, I fould that GrowlMail was still installed and was keeping my Mail program from starting automatically. You can remove this plug-in manually by turning off mail, and then removing ~/Library/Mail/Bundles/GrowlMail.mailbundle
A historically interesting, yet somewhat disjointed, look at a man's hard life in the old west.
I just opened up the viewing of revisions to anonymous users on my site. Check it out on my recipe for pickled eggs: http://baxwrds.com/node/469/revisions
You can use the Diff function provided by the diff module to get revisions highlighted for you. Allowing you to tell that I just added this paragraph:

One of my clients started getting massive amounts of SPAM through his web form created contact form. Since this contact form is displayed as a block on ever page, I didn't want to put in an obtrusive captcha. I did try the hidden captcha module, but found that it is already automated against. I decided to hit it straight on and wrote a snippet of code to not submit, but error instead, when the body contains the http prefix.
In a previous post, I outlined how to park a domain at google. I have since started handling my own parked domains internally at BBros.
If you haven't installed Growl yet on your Mac to handle notifications, then you should do it now. And if you did have it installed, you probably saw it disappear during the last system update numbered 10.6.7, which updated Mail to 4.5. As for now, there is not an official release of Growl for the newest release of Mail (or the previous Mail 4.4), so to get it all running you are going to need to do a little poking around the preference files. The good news is that the only change needed is to simply tell the growl plugin that it is compatible with the newest version of mail.

On my most recent trip to Prague, I needed to secure relatively hi-speed internet on a month by month basis, without waiting the 2 weeks required to DSL your home line. A home line that I didn't even own. Before my arrival my wife got a vodafone cellar modem for me, which worked right out of the box and came with a month free trial with deposit. This sounded exploitable, except the 2gb limit (in a month) ran out fast, and from there Vodafone requires 6 month contracts. I did a little research and found that O2 has an English speaking store and a day by day prepay contract. Awesome.
I get the modem, run to my soviet-era panel building and plug the modem in. Nothing. Nothing at all.
