In my post yesterday, I talked about how I added Matt Haughey’s Trackback Playlist and that the song titles would link to a Google search. I wasn’t at all happy with how the results were being displayed. I wanted to be able to provide you with a link to the artist, or at least to a page where you could find more information about the artist.
Since I’m a bit anal retentive (who me?) with my mp3 ID tags, I always include a link to the artist’s web site in the URL field. Unfortunately, the Do Something plugin doesn’t support that field. After fighting with it for about an hour, I had decided to give up – this feature just wasn’t meant to be. 🙁
I just can’t seem to leave well enough alone. Every morning, after I post my entry, I have a tendency to tweak the site here and there. There’s always a little something that needs to be added, nipped, or tucked.
By now you’ve no doubt heard about the 
As everyone who reads this weblog must know by now, I love Palm OS handhelds. So, it was only natural that I would try and find a way to manage my weblog via my ever present 
As a child, I was always the smallest, skinniest one. Everyone was bigger than me. I’m not kidding, everyone. My father was 6 feet tall, so I kept waiting and waiting for this big growth spurt to happen so that I could tower over everyone I grew up with. High school came and went and no spurt. Then in college I figured I’d pretty much topped out at 5′ 10″ and that the spurt wasn’t ever going to happen. I was wrong. Since we’re three dimensional beings, growth can happen in many directions. My growth spurt did start in college, but instead of it making me grow vertically, I began growing horizontally. In other words, I started getting fat. 😛 Up until my senior year in high school, I was very active in soccer and other activities. Weight had never been a problem, so I could eat anything I wanted. Just before Christmas 1984 I broke both my knees (that a whole other story) and after that, I had to give up soccer and most activities involving running. I just couldn’t take the stress to the knees. So, after that accident my level of activity dropped significantly. When I was in college, I was either pounding the books, or sitting in a practice room playing my trumpet. Not a lot of activity, but I never really got too heavy, just a little out of shape. 
My television viewing habits have changed a lot this past year. Used to be that I was totally hooked on the 
I stumbled upon the stroopwafel some 10 years ago back in Baton Rouge. Coffee shops where just beginning to blossom around the United States and people weren’t quite sure what to make of them. In fact, I remember the first time I walked into 
When I was a kid, I used to believe that dogs were male and cats were female. I thought that dogs and cats got married, just like people do, and when they had babies, they had puppies and kittens. I’m not making this up, I firmly believed this. When my parents explained to me that this was not the case, I was crestfallen. As a child, that belief was not just a whimsical thought, but a governing rule of the universe, just like gravity. Of course, I also still believed in the Easter Bunny. 🙂 With all the 
I think Gracie is the most perfect dog in the world. My cats, on the other hand, this that she is the spawn from hell. We’ve been trying to integrate Gracie with our four cats for about a month now and we’re having very little success. We’ve tried supervised visits with one cat in a neutral area, we’ve tried group meets, we’ve tried just about everything and the cats simply want nothing to do with Gracie.
