  • Why People Suck: A theological examination

    I tend not to get into religion or personal issues here.  The theory is sort of that that’s one of those subjects that’s bound to rile people up and not polite to discuss.  Then again, this site gets very little traffic, so riling people up can only help… I consider myself to be pretty theologically…

  • jazzsequence.com redesign

    i’ve been thinking of redesigning jazzsequence.com.  i love this design, i do, and it was a huge project to design, since much of it was written by hand, but i’ve been thinking of ways to monetize the site, if possible, and this layout isn’t very conducive to that.  it’s a good blog layout, and if…

    we rarely (if ever) go to movies in the theatre anymore. this is sometimes depressing when long awaited films are released in the theatre that we really, really want to see. as the kids get older (particularly our youngest), scheduling a block of 4 or so hours where they can be sat by the grandparents…

    Today I’m going to talk about the Kitchen Sink. No, this isn’t a post about plumbing (thankfully — I hate plumbing). This is about the Kitchen Sink in WordPress. I can see your double-take already.

  • Fixing bullet points (list items) in WordPress

    As I was working today, I got a request to fix an issue in which bullet points and numbers for ordered lists were not displaying at all.  The list would display, but the bullets would not, and this was especially frustrating when using an ordered (numbered) list.
