We now return to our regularly scheduled blogging

Sorry about the downtime. I dunno what happened, but my host’s server crashed in a big way. They said they fixed it around midnight last night, but I was still getting funky error messages that you might have seen if you dropped by earlier today. After raising four tickets in eight hours, all of which they ignored, I took matters into my own damn hands and restored my own database and upgraded my WordPress installation to boot.

And I cooked up a mean pot of chili while I was doing it!

Sorry about the interruption.

5. Blog woes I’m feeling a lot of blog angst today.  First, while I was on vacation they unilaterally cut access to blogs from work.  Ugh!  No blogs whatsoever!  You might remember, I’m starting work on a project to integrate social media more fully into how we communicate as an organization; this isn’t...
