Waiting for Virginia Tech Football to start
I’m getting antsy waiting for football season to start so I can watch us beat Boise State at Fedex!
Favorite WordCamp 2010 picture
I’m trying to decide which picture from WordCamp last weekend is my favorite. There are so many great ones but it has to be either this one of Matt Danner or this other that I like the best. Matt Danner (who works for Cory Miller at iThemes) is a great photographer, but somehow always managers [...]
WordCamp Raleigh went well
Check out the WordCamp pictures from this year’s WordCamp Raleigh!
iPad converted to PADD
In Star Trek, they had (or will have?) these little hand-held devices called PADDs, or Personal Access Display Device.
My Blog Could Beat Up Your Blog
Today I received a couple iThemes shirts from Cory Miller of webdesign.com. Add this to my lot of other WordPress shirts from the official WordPress shop, and I’m getting quite the collection of WordPress gear. I’m always up for more WordPress gear/attire, so if you’re aware of any others, please let me know! Fellow Semper [...]
Comparing Video from Kodak Zi8 and Nikon D5000
I’ve taken videos from both my Kodak Zi8 and my Nikon D5000, but I wanted to see how they compared side by side… literally. For this example, I held (sorry about the shaking) both cameras next to each other and recorded Steve Mortiboy driving a Dodge Charger around a circle a few times.
House to Approve Bill without Voting
Hey Guys, I am sending this letter to a few friends. This is as critical as it is unbelievable.: Several days ago, house rules chairwoman Louise Slaughter began preparing a rule that would consider the Senate health care bill as passed in the House of Representatives without the House actually having to vote for it. [...]
WordCamp Miami
Had a great time meeting everyone at WordCamp Miami yesterday. Mark Jaquith’s Tips and Tricks presentation was pretty interesting. Watch the video after it’s posted if you haven’t seen it yet. Enjoyed hanging out with Scott Basgaard again. Met a number of great new people. Got several great photography tips from Travis Ballard and Carlos Miller. [...]
Neither Snow nor Sleet
The January Meetup was cancelled due to snow, and even though it snowed again last night we weren’t going to let that keep us from this month’s meetup. Craig Tuller of StudioPress gave and excellent presentation on theme news, customization, tweak hints, and development.
Media Temple Hacked
I don’t normally do negative posts about another person or company, but I feel this needs to get out there. A few hours ago I received an email from MediaTemple, where I host several of my clients. It was an automated message informing me that:

A Big Thank You
Lately, there has been talk about WordPress Plugin and Theme developers not receiving enough credit and appreciation for their work, if any at all. While this may be true, I want to make sure we acknowledge those who do express their appreciation and gratitude through Paypal donations, sending a gift on my Amazon wishlist, or [...]
WordPress Plugin and Theme GPL Misconceptions, Misinformation, and Perspective
I don’t have some crazy linkbait title bashing some plugin, developer, or Automattic employee/executive, but you’re here so I guess you still found the post somehow. Lately, there has been a lot of talk about a variety of issues related to the commercialization and GPLness of plugins, themes, and Automattic. Some of these discussions have [...]
Foreman Field – Old Dominion University
Check out the new Foreman Field football stadium facility at Old Dominion University. The ODU stadium is still a construction zone. The game day building in the Southern Endzone is new. In the next several years both stands will be replaced as they are the original stands from the early 1900s. ODU last played there [...]

Stan Crawford
I checked my mail today and found a relatively large, padded envelope. I opened it to find a signed copy of the latest album, Crazy Water, from Stan Crawford.
