Humor, The Geek Side

U R 2 kewl!

Apparently, my brother has jumped ship. For some reason he wanted the flexibility and features of Xanga for his online writing, so he’s run off to join the high school kids for his site. I do kind of like that it gives a place to post what you’re reading/writing/listening to with each post, but I’m sure with some digging I can give him that same functionality and more without all the Xanga business that goes on around it.

Still waiting to hear from McSweeney’s to see if I’m a published humorist. For those not familiar, they have a section called something like “An Open Letter To Something That Can’t Possibly Respond” or such. So, when Royals DH/1B (and former catcher, dammit!) Mike Sweeney got hit on the wrist by a pitch last night, I figured what better thing to do than submit an Open Letter about Mike Sweeney to McSweeney’s? (Incidentally, “mikesweeney.net” belongs to some crazy guy, I think.) The submission process is a little bizarre, but it is what it is, and we’ll see how that goes.

Also, my procrastination with BGSUsports.com has led to a potential new idea. Something I never heard of called “MamboServer”, which supposedly loads really easy thanks to my hosting company, and looks like it could make page publishing a snap, might get a whirl in the near future. Then again, that site has had more ideas than I have brain cells in the last 3 months, so maybe I’ll stick with the status quo.

  1. Tony,
    I agree that Xanga is overrun by teenagers, and I think it’s great that you use WordPress (if I had the knowledge and expertise I might too), but Xanga isn’t all bad. Someday, though, I hope to ween myself away from the group of 12-year-olds who frequent my site.

  2. While you’re waiting for Mike Sweeney, maybe you can get around to acknowledging that it’s not Memorial Day weekend any more and change your banner. Or, in the spirit of people who decide in May to leave their Christmas lights up because “it’s almost Christmas again anyway”, you can keep it up until early August when NASCAR comes to town.

    Either way. Your site.

  3. (Okay, I should have noticed before now that the banners rotate. Still, it’s not race week, even if your banner occasionally insists that it is.)
