The Blog that Noone Reads

I finally started going back to the gym. I’ve been wanting to for quite a while, but now I’ve actually started going. I’m so sore. It’s rediculous. I haven’t been able to lift my arms since Tuesday. Anyway, I think I’m gonna buy some new Rollerblades sometime soon. That will give me something to do inbetween gym visits.

The Easily Distracted Theatre will be hosting a DVD release party Saturday, February 18 at 8pm. It’s gonna be a fun event. There will be live music, food, and some other cool stuff. If your gonna be free, come on down and see what we’ve been up to. Checkout the ED Website for details.

If you can’t make it, that’s ok too. Just get on over to the ED Online Store and order your copy of the new DVDs today.

I’ve spent the last few hours working on my new site here. There was some formatting lost when I moved over to the new site, so I’ve been trying to restore that. The only problem is, there are literally huntreds of posts that need attention, so it’s gonna take a while. All the content is online, its just not as pretty as I’d like.

Anyway, I’ve been working on the About this Site page. It’s not really complete. I’ll probably be working on it for quite a while to come, but there’s a good start there and it’s worth a look.

I’ve finally decided to move away from Blogger. It’s not that I don’t like blogger. It’s that, well Blogger is very basic and I’m ready for something more. I’ve decided to go with WordPress for this new revision. You can get your own, free, WordPress blog over at WordPress.com. Or you can go to WordPress.org and download WordPress to run on your own server, which is exactly what I’ve done.

Anyway, there are more features available to me here, so this is where I’m staying. The good part for you people is, because I can do more, I will do more. Specifically, I’ve got plans for some other categories of content beyond just a plain ol’ blog. I’ve got some interesting articles on the way about digital photography, computography, and … ummm … food-ography.

Damn! Now that you’re reading this, I really can’t accurately call it “The Blog that Noone Reads.” But, for the sake of brevity, I’m not going to change it to “The Blog that Until Recently, Noone Read.” So the current title will just have to do.

If you’re viewing this site, there’s a good chance I’m somebody you already know, so I’m not going to waste precious space on this page explaining myself. You probably already know that I’m often quite the hairy dude. You probably already know that I’m a computer geek and I hardly ever sleep. You’ve probably already seen the VW Passat that I drive around in. And, becuase you already know me, there is no reason to post any pictures on this page.

Way back in October 2004, I decided to try out that crazy “blog” thing all the cool kids were talking about. I’d actually been working on a website engine for myself for quite a while. The thing was, I wanted to actually create a site instead of spending all my time creating a site creator. I’ve never had anything really interesting to write about, I just wanted to create something as an exercise in contributing to, and maintaining a website. So, I went to Blogger and setup The Blog that Noone Reads. Blogger is a great tool for getting started with a site like this. But eventually, as you become a more seasoned blogger, the simple tool becomes quite limiting. So, I decided it was time for an upgrade. I moved over to my own server and setup my site using WordPress, which is what you’re looking at now. So what do I write about, you ask. Well, I’ll tell ya.

I like to write about

• geek stuff
• cars
• food
• drink
• passion
• love
• sickness
• pain
• friends
• vocabulary
• vacations
• chemistry
• hot reindeer babes
• ninja chefs
• hatty mans
• and iPants

I saw this commercial and I was instantly reminded of this Penny-Arcade comic. I’m sure you’ll understand why.

Ok, so I updated my template today. I’m not done with it at all, but I wanted to get something up that wasn’t a built in Blogger style. Whenever I have some time, I’ll continue updating the template until I get something that I’m satisfied with. I’ll keep y’all posted.
