What a day...

Well, we got up this morning and got ready to go eat breakfast. I poped the hatch to my car to load our stuff in the back then shut the hatch with my keys still in the drain tray... :( So thanks to Alastria we called GM roadside assistance and got it unlocked in no time. However when I was running to the front of the hotel to get the address I dropped my nice new Motorola v600... It shattered the external display... The good side is everything else still works but with a bluetooth headset I actually used the external display more than the main one. :( plus there goes my $300 phone down the drain...
During all this my parents walked over to BK to grab us some breakfast. There was a nice picknick table out behind the motel so they plopped down then over they went food and all. Turns out the table is a true safty hazard. One person sitting is enough to flip it over... Not good.

But! I did finaly get my new exhaust installed!

My car is exhausted

It sounds amazing. I'm soooo glad I got it.
So tomorrow we have to go back so mom can pickup a part she ordered for her car then I think we'll head back to St. Louis and waste some time.

So I guess maybe it is time to think about a new phone... I hadn't planned on upgrading even though there are many nice ones I might want. I'll take it in to Cingular Monday and see if there is anything they can do. I could fix it if I could find a display... oh well, we shall see...

The blog is dead. Long live the blog!

A few months ago I dusted off this blog which I had not touched since 2011. The reason? I was prompted by an article written by Mike Elgan about how famed podcaster and internet host Leo Laporte was dropping social media all together. No Facebook, no Twitter, not even an Instagram. Leo retreated to the safety and security of his own blogs. A world totally under his control. That got me thinking about my terribly limited use of social media (i.e Google+) and why I even bother using it. My engagement on the once flourishing Google+ had all but dried up. I really only communicate regularly with three or four people on the platform these days. All of this lead me to examine the reasons I still bother to post anything to Google+ and the answers were pretty simple. The primary use? To share photos of our travels and grandpuppy with our family. The others? To read the news and to share and converse about things that I like and that matter to me. Then came the announcement that Goo...

The end of an era...

I received an email today from Blogger informing me that as of March 26th they will no longer support FTP blog publishing. My blog has been powered by Blogger since 2004 and FTPed to my hosting service. I really don't know exactly what I plan to do. This site can remain exactly as it is but I will no longer be able to update it via Blogger. For the time being I plan to move this blog over to http://batcaveweb.blogspot.com . Google supports custom domains and such but I'm not really sure I want to continue to use Blogger after this change. I will loose all of my custom sub-pages and a whole lot of customization ability. The same goes for the Istari blog. I will be moving it over to http://istariguild.blogspot.com . I may at some point use the custom domain option to redirect batcaveweb to the Blogger server but I doubt it. I will probably have to start from scratch and move to some custom content system. However, I really don't use my blog all that much these days so...
