Redirection

August 12th, 2008

Since the ‘Farm is in a state of some disarray, and I have a perfectly functional blog-style site over at emptyseatsband.com, I’ve decided to start using that as my main outlet for brain dumping for the time being, until I get this site’s act together. This should take place at an undetermined future date. Anyway, in the meantime, you can get your fix of me and my family (not to mention podcasts, in addition to all the other goodness the ESB site has to offer) at the following link:

GO HERE INSTEAD!

Thanks!

Sorry About That

July 21st, 2008

Well, Paul and I tried to upgrade the ‘Farm to a newer version of WordPress, only to fail somewhere along the road, causing the whole site to be missing. Luckily, it’s just going to take a bunch of work on my end to fix it, so that shouldn’t be a big problem for you, the faithful reader. I’ll try to make the site look right while I’m at it, and see how this new version of WP works out while I’m at it. And the old entries will show up someday, when I figure out how to make that happen. And it will. I promise. Just not today.

Housecleaning

July 21st, 2008

I finally think I”ve found a way to deal with the spam registrations that were making my admin email account rather useless - at least, I hope it will deal with the problem. I instituted a CAPTCHA system for new users, which is the funny-looking letters you see when you try to sign up for things that are designed to make sure you”re a human who can read the letters. The Empty Seats Band site is still a mess, with hundreds of bogus comments, but it’’s been a long time since i”ve done anything over there, so that will have to wait for another day. Anyway, I deleted a bunch of accounts, so if you had a legit account that I didn”t recognize for some reason, and it got deleted, you”ll have to re-register. Sorry about that. But thanks for stopping by anyway.

Triumphantly-ish Returning

July 2nd, 2008

Yep, we”re back on the ol” podcast train, folks. I don”t know if anyone is even subscribed to ePodcastFarm anymore, but I”ve got a new episode ready to download. In this installment, I tell some stories about Hannah, discuss our family’’s health (or lack thereof), give some thoughts on the presidential race, and rock out to Coldplay’’s Lovers In Japan. Good times all around. Give it a spin!
