Looking At Performance
Optimization and performance tuning is something that has sparked my attention and consumed lots of my spare time in the past couple of months. All and all, it really has been worth it.
Late last year, it became clear to me that administration and upgrading was really becoming a real pain for me. Just [...]
Firefox CSS Question!
I really would like some advice on this problem that I am having with some avatar alignment in my comments. It seems that Firefox just can’t seem to figure out that the avatars are supposed to be on the same line with one of the left and one on the right. [...]
What’s New On Sunday
Let me tell you briefly what I know since I have been up since 5:00 am MST. I found out the following:
Obama pulled ahead 1,617 to 1,498 over Clinton yesterday with a few more pledged delegates
Raincoaster got the big laugh for me with her tumblr blog entry:
Why are the links I put in days ago [...]

Domain Mapping Questions
I have really been working on getting the annoying issues of my WPMU install sorted out today. With the addition of my ssl certificate on the server, anything that works on a domain outside of *.onvertigo.com is just a pain in the ass. If anyone posted a comment on any of my mapped domains, they [...]
Start of Grass Season 2008
Today the grass season started for us on our main ranch with the arrival of some of our cattle. I guess I should almost called it the start of the Pied Piper as that is what these first two (2) photos look like! May the year be full of rain [...]

Music right out my trips to Sandals!
Body In A Box
I heard this song not very long ago and just thought it was one of the best message songs I have heard in awhile. Also a catchy tune really! This is my version of “Body in a Box” by City and Colour. It was recorded using my Macbook iSight of all things, so the audio [...]
Comments Whoops!
It was this morning that I figured out that anyone that posted on this blog in the past week was shown a pop up for “accepting my security certificate” and I wasn’t even aware of this! I never meant for that to actually happen and I apologize for that if you tried to comment and [...]
JBS The Biggest Packer/Feeder
In a dramatic chain of events, JBS purchased both National and Smithfield Beef today. With this purchase they also picked up 5 River Cattle Company with a one-time feeding capacity of 800,000 on feed! If this one is approved by the Justice Department, they will become the largest packing/feeder company in the USA. The following [...]
My Google Experiences
It is just plain stupid for someone to replicate data that they have on one blog with another one. I have done it in the past and you have to ask yourself whether you should even have those extra blogs if that is what you are planning on doing. Here is my example!
It is no [...]
Google Docs & Privacy
I have played around with Google Docs since it was first introduced, but I really haven’t been bothered to use it since most of my spreadsheets and documents are related to work and that is not something that you really want on the internet. While the team at Google have stated that [...]
The Ant & Grasshopper
Sent to me via Pat!
*Disclaimer* - This is all in fun and not my work. Someone else wrote it as a joke.
CLASSIC VERSION:
The ant works hard in the withering heat all summer long, building his house and laying up supplies for the winter. The grasshopper thinks he’s a fool, and laughs and dances and [...]
Private YouTube Videos
I have to admit that without any mass editing tools at YouTube, I am losing my mind. I have a couple of “private” video sharing playlists and one of them is up to 107 videos now. On every video, I have to update the “sharing” list so that [...]
YouTube Private Video Sharing?
I have to admit that without any mass editing tools at YouTube, I am losing my mind. I have a couple of “private” video sharing playlists and one of them is up to 107 videos now. On every video, I have to update the “sharing” list so that the videos can be seen by the [...]
