After two-plus years of the World Trade Center being a seemingly taboo subject in TV and movies (it has made some appearances, sure, but especially right after the attacks the big thing was everyone scrambling to edit it from their TV shows if at all possible), we have returned!

Last night, the local FOX station ran the Simpsons episode where they went to NYC to get Homer’s car back from its illegal parking space beneath the Twin Towers. I could understand if they didn’t run it ever again out of respect, but damn is that one good episode!

I think there was more in my head, but it turned to mush during my latest bout with technology. (Geek Speak turned on, others can return to whatever it was you weren’t doing to get here in the first place.)

I’m trying my best to catch up to the blogging world and giving this site an Atom or RSS feed. I found out how to do that, unfortunately, the setup I had for this site involves a whole bunch of .ssi files, rather than .html, so it publishes funny. If a site feed tries to request an individual day, it comes up as an .ssi file, and it isn’t pretty. So what I need to do is make my blog template publish as an HTML file each day, but I can’t figure out how to work that with my current setup. Maybe next week when I have some time I’ll just break it down to a basic Blogger template and rebuild my CSS and links around that, or maybe this is what it will take to make me take a more serious look at TextPattern, which has intrigued me since Pete started using it, or another blogging platform. I’d hate to, because Blogger really gives me what I need for free, but it would be nice to have a bit more functionality with what I’m trying to do.

Any ideas, please share.
