Short posts that are usually announcements or quick comments on things I come across
One of the projects that has kept me pretty busy this last month is designing my new sermon site.? After many long hours and code wrangling I think I’ve managed to put together a half-decent place to host all the sermons I write and preach.? Of course – the core is WordPress – but I’ve […]
As usual there’s been a flurry of activity behind the screen of my computer but it isn’t reflected in blog posts ;). But I just had to put something up to announce the changing of my theme (yet again). My first attempt at creating a theme wasn’t so great (I feel sorry for any who […]
Yeah I know, I haven’t posted in a while. It’s just things have been so busy everytime I visit thinking I’ll post something I’m just so tired – too tired to think let alone type :lol:! Anyway, what have I been up to that’s kept me so busy? Well aside from church stuff I’ve been […]
YAR! has morphed into Eclectic Excogitation and I’ve transfered it to my new domain http://www.unfoldingneurons.com. Why “Eclectic Excogitation”? Because I’m a nerd with a lot of different interests!

Well my very first wordpress upgrade was a success 🙂 [upgrade 2.0.2 – 2.0.4]. I did have a couple of hiccups along the way though. I carefully followed instructions for upgrading at the WordPress Codex – specifically the part about disabling all the plugins. Only thing is I disabled the Sidebar Widgets plug-in before disabling […]
I’m upgrading YAR!? to the latest release of WordPress (2.0.4).? Along the way I’m deactivating some plugins etc. that may interefere with the upgrade process to help troubleshoot if things get “messed up”.? So…if things aren’t normal bear with me – if the upgrade bombs out I’ll restore things to the way they were.? Of […]
This is an Ideas Brain Dump Post. On my way to the office today I noticed a construction crew working on the side of the road digging in preparation to put a sidewalk in. Then it hit me – these guys were tearing up really niceley manicured grass (it was in front of some businesses) […]
