Trivial details! More information than anyone wants! What I ate for breakfast! Blog abuse continues at bucketFountain as I detail day 1 of our bathroom renovations in this stunning photo account!
The theme for today is bathrooms made of old packing crates.
The most interesting part of looking at site stats are the search terms people have used to find the site. Sometimes they’re lewd, sometimes they’re slightly odd, and sometimes people just need a hand with something. Take, for example, this poor chap:

Oh dear! Well, on this happy occasion I’m glad I can guide this reader to a solution.
Which isn’t necessarily a good thing. It looks as though hoards of upgraders to Feisty are finding that they can no longer connect to wireless networks. One of my machines could not even connect down the wire…. Oh why didn’t I just stick with 6.10? Come back Edgy Eft!
Holy crap, where is the year going? Fav story this week is the supercomputer that has mimicked a mouse brain. Well actually half a mouse brain. For 10 seconds. But actually it turns out that it was running 10 times slower than a real mouse brain, so it was equivalent to one second. Still, that’s great progress.
Kurt Vonnegut, the author of Slaughterhouse Five has died. Water has been detected in the atmosphere of the giant planet HD 209458b.
While I like Ubuntu I can’t say I’m a huge fan of Gnome (I prefer KDE). However, the Dive into Mark man’s essential software list has some gems on it (such as k9copy for copying DVDs).
Another painful upgrade, although I guess I’ll get used to them. What I hate is that the site is down and I’m never sure how long for. That’s mostly due to the slow FTP speed I get with Bluehost. It’s certainly something I don’t want to do regularly, but I was unlucky enough to upgrade to WordPress 2.1.1 which had been compromised by a cracker. 2.1.2 fixed that, but no upgrading for me unless necessary or highly beneficial.
