I love tea, all kinds of tea. People are generally freaked out by my love of tea and simply because I want more tea - I’m hooking up Adagio Tea with a link. Normally I’m a Stash Tea girl, but I figure, free tea samples can’t hurt :D.
If you’d like to spread some tea love [...]
February Ramblings of the Mildly Insane Archives
Because I’m a Tea Snob
It’s Official - Mild Insanity Has A New Home
I’ve finished moving the insanity over to the new host - yaaaay. It wasn’t difficult, the delay came because my lazy behind just didn’t feel like porting my current design into a WP 1.5 theme :). It’s funny because I wouldn’t have experienced any downtime at all - the “I’m sorry” page was due to [...]
The Insanity Is Moving
I’ve been with my current host for quite a while now. I was with them since the beginning of my first real website (that’s roughly 2 years now) and they’ve served me well. Their customer care is super awesome and I have very few complaints with them.
However, it seems some of my websites are outgrowing [...]
Tigerspice is offline (hopefully they stay that way)
It seems that tigerspice.com and webserverhost.net has been bumped offline.
Also, the trackback spam for tigerspice.com seems to have stopped for the moment, but Google and Yahoo! still have a few pages from the site in their index. Hopefully they get removed soon.
Apparently someone somewhere with some power to shut them down heard the complaints [...]
I’m Neo-Pagan?!? What?!?
I just got done taking the belief-o-matic quiz at beliefnet just out of sheer curiousity and it seems as though I’m a Neo-Pagan.
Time for me to admit something - I don’t really know what Neo-Pagan is and I’m sure my (very Baptist Christian) family would raise an eyebrow at these results. Baptist Christian doesn’t [...]
Trackback Spam Revisited
If you run a blog or weblog, chances are you’ve been hit with trackback spam/comment spam and chances are you don’t like it. Well Paul decided to take the initiative and post the spammer WHOIS info and mentioned reporting the spammers.
I’ve decided to take a little initiative myself and I’ve tracked down the hosting provider [...]
I can finally grocery shop online…sort of
Amazon is really bringing laziness (or convenience) to new levels with their gourmet foods (beta) section.
When I was looking to purchase some washing soda online which returned the result of “Gristedes Supermarket of New York” and then thought to myself…hmmm…if it’s a supermarket, then they may have other supermarket type stuff, so I clicked around [...]
oh yea…real smooth
What not to try and spam a woman’s blog with:
Woman is not yet capable of friendship: women are still cats and birds. Or, at best, cows.
This is bonafide proof that spammers are idiots (if all the other stuff wasn’t enough for you). I’m almost tempted to make a category specifically for stupidity…
Did Anyone Else Notice That Google’s REALLY Giving Away The Invites?
You know, I had a tough time trying to force people to open a Gmail account borderline bribing people to open a Gmail account b/c the invites just kept coming. Well it seems today that Gmail really wants to start unleashing it’s G-ness on the world b/c I now have 50 invites remaining.
Yes, 50 - [...]
Wordpress 1.5 Is Here - woohoo
It’s official - WordPress 1.5 is here and ready for human consumption. It definitely sounds appealing and I honestly didn’t think I’d be driven to update my installations of WordPress (I have 5), but after reading that loverly post on the dev blog, I can’t resist.
I’ll be testing it out on the project that is [...]
