First Entry

This is my foray into the weblog world. I downloaded Movable Type a few weeks ago, and just now finally got it Installed and running. Ran into a few perl problems that had me frustrated. But, it seems to be working. Then edited the style sheet, hacked around a few other things, and viola – it seems to work.

I used to work at Remarq, which was a company providing web-access to usenet. (It was later acquired by Critical Path). I must say, the whole blogging concept looks very very similar to usenet. Sure, the technology is a little different, but the concepts are the same – people can publish topics, ideologies, etc, others can read it, and then you can get whole threads of conversations going. So, I find this interesting… Its also interesting to read about people stumbling into many of the same issues that Usenet stumbled into.

Oh yeah, and I had chicken for dinner.

    Actually, it was a Jersey Giant Hen. These hens are known for their large size, she was about 9.5lbs. She looked like a typical red hen, but she had her cute mannerisms, too. We used to call her ‘Fluffy’. But alas, she just wasn’t producing enough eggs, and hence we had her for dinner.
