I fixed a few issues with the Photolog templates, so things should look much nicer. It's still missing basic functionality like previous, next and back buttons, but I've already had my fill in dealing with Movable Type for the week.... Keep reading this entry »
Last night I upgraded my version of Movable Type to start using a MySQL database, and I was surprised at how smooth the process was. Since I'm quite fond of the directory structure I have set up here, I was... Keep reading this entry »
I'm slowly tearing this body apart, and I'm not sure how much longer it's going to last. Last Tuesday I skipped out of work at noon to go bouldering with Mark and Laura out at Skeleton Cave, a beefy lava... Keep reading this entry »

First off, a slight history lesson. I started building what ultimately became Brainside Out in January of 2001. At that time it was called Cromlech, and it was clumsily spun with the help of Go Live and Dreamweaver. The first... Keep reading this entry »
Okay. Things are looking pretty good now. Welcome to the new hotness. It has been a long haul and now I'm dizzy and tricked out on dnL, so it's probably about time to hit the sack. In completely unrelated news,... Keep reading this entry »

Despite an apparent lack of activity, things have been pig-bustin' wild. Yesterday we hit up the Christian Brothers wall at Smith Rock and I top-roped Ring of Fire, my first 5.12a climb. It was quite a jump, seeing as how... Keep reading this entry »
