I managed to “unbork” things that the WordPress “update” messed up — mostly by removing dead links — and put in a silly placeholder for the “about” page so clicking the link doesn’t cause an error anymore. All in all however, I’m pretty determined to write my own software again and ditch WP, at least I’m sure my own SW won’t have the sort of surprises I’ve been seeing this week.

About me…
I used to have a very interesting page telling people all about myself in there, but a WordPress “upgrade” destroyed it (Gee, thanks, WordPress) so I’m afraid it’s gone now and I can’t be bothered to recreate it. Sorry!
Volvo C70: continuing impressions.

More things I learned since yesterday!
Apparently the WordPress upgrade completely borked my pages (like “about”) and categories as well. Gee, thanks, WordPress! So, don’t bother clicking any of the links near the title bar, they probably just won’t work. And since I have 1700+ entries I really can’t be bothered to go in and edit each bloody entry manually. So, I think I need to put WordPress in the list of things I’m not too impressed with lately.
Things I have learned recently…
I had a good look at my site yesterday and discovered a number of things!
Think of it as an opportunity to wear your heart on your sleeve.
I Heart Guts! Plushes and T-shirts (and more) for the anatomy fan on your Xmas list.
He’s going to have a tough time finding mitts and gloves to fit him.
Ever wonder what it looks like on X-ray when someone lets a homemade firecracker blow up in his hand? Wonder no more.
I think “serendipity” is the right word, I really do…
New York’s Serendipity 3 restaurant is famous for having the most expensive dessert in the world, a $25,000 chocolate concoction with lots of edible gold and served with a gold-lined goblet. However hygiene inspectors also found that the restaurant’s unadvertised extras include cockroaches, flies, sewage and rodent droppings. Yum!
Captchas, done right.
Tired of brain-dead “retype what’s in the box above” captchas? Register for an account at the home of the Quantum Random Bit Generator to be quizzed on your knowledge of complex math equations instead! Note that you get a captcha of varying length and complexity every time.
From Hello Kitty to Hello Titty?
A new series of marketing characters is hitting the shops in Japan this year, and this is what they look like – Meet the Milk-chans. Breasts, five of them. Colors vary, but they appear to be all the same size, and in the tradition of Kogepan or Hello Kitty each character has its own personality. Don’t hesitate to visit the official Funwari Milk-chan web site for more bosomy cuteness in Japanese. Enjoy!
