Don't be scared.- September 14, 2007 The site's probably going to go tits-up sometime this evening, which will actually be a good thing if I know what I'm doing...which I probably don't. Basically I have to delete all the MovableType files out of my main directory and put in all the new stuff I've been working on over at the subdirectory. I'm guessing that will make this place look like Chernobyl for a bit. Sounds like a fun Friday night. Watch out, I'm exciting! I will be drinking while I do this, of course.http://www.rachellucas.com/2007/09/dont_be_scared.html Shock and awe.- September 14, 2007 I am still toiling in the bowels of PHP, HTML, and CSS, and I would still like to beat someone's ass. Who writes the documentation for this stuff Do they not understand that some of us don't have degrees in software engineering Assholes! My hero, known in the comments around here as phineas g., has via email managed to reverse me from my headlong march towards apocalyptic destruction. That is seriously how I feel. I work hard for you people. Hard! You better comment your freaking...http://www.rachellucas.com/2007/09/shock_and_awe.html Sunny expresses my emotions about templates, Part Two.- September 13, 2007 I'm managed to install Wordpress and import all my entries to a temporary subdomain, and now I'm engaging in something even less pleasant than Rosie O'Donnell's body odor: editing the template HTML. Any-diddly-doo, this blog will stop sucking and start being awesome tomorrow or the next day, with full comment-enabled deliciousness. You can't wait!http://www.rachellucas.com/2007/09/sunny_expresses_my_emotions_ab.html He is sooooo dead.- September 13, 2007 HA! I can once again stand by my deep belief that Osama bin Laden, Lover of Goats, is dead. If he was alive, they'd make REAL videos of him; it'd be ten times easier than all the fakery. The September 7 video shows bin Laden dressed in a white hat, white shirt and yellow sweater. Krawetz notes this is the same clothing he wore in the 2004-10-29 video. In 2004 he had it unzipped, but in 2007 he zipped up the bottom half. Besides the clothing, it appears to be the same background, same...http://www.rachellucas.com/2007/09/he_is_sooooo_dead.html Awwwwwww.- September 12, 2007 While I do battle with my Wordpress installation, you should read this. It's sweet. A male chow mix laid down in the middle of a busy street this morning to keep watch over its companion, a female German shepherd mix, after it was hit and killed by a car on Chambers Road near East 52nd Avenue. The dogs lacked any identifying tags and had been reported running loose together for the past two days, according to Denver Animal Care & Control director Doug Kelley. "When a companion animal is...http://www.rachellucas.com/2007/09/awwwwwww.html Public schools are fantastic.- September 12, 2007 Remember what I said yesterday about how we're fucking doomed because public school administrators are fools I offer you further proof. First, a school in Queens who have a "no 911 calls for any reason" policy: Schools Chancellor Joel Klein yesterday vowed to investigate a Queens high school policy that may have cost a teen girl her health. The Daily News reported yesterday an official at Jamaica High School barred school deans from calling 911 in an emergency - just weeks before...http://www.rachellucas.com/2007/09/public_schools_are_fantastic.html I am banned from my own blog.- September 12, 2007 I have about 40 emails from people who can't post comments, and I want to post them for you guys but I can't because stupid fucking Typekey is locking me out still, too. I am going to start cutting myself soon. I'm working on the Wordpress thing. Wish me luck. I have some posts to make, too; I won't leave you hanging, bored in your cube at work. I guess there are about five trillion other blogs you could read but we all know mine is TOPS. Where else can you read the little-known fact...http://www.rachellucas.com/2007/09/i_am_banned_from_my_own_blog.html About as sexy as a severe case of salmonella.- September 11, 2007 Britney Spears launched her big "comeback" the other night on MTV (yet another one of their lame awards shows), and it was very, very bad. Bad so bad it makes Baby Jesus cry. She was drunk andor medicated, utterly uninterested in appearing to give even a tiny little atom's worth of a shit. She didn't even bother to fake her lip-synching and completely stopped mouthing the words about halfway through, and most of all, she looked like hell. And yes, I am saying she looked awful, even...http://www.rachellucas.com/2007/09/about_as_sexy_as_a_severe_case.html Nice. Real nice.- September 11, 2007 So here we are, six years out from 911, and not too many people seem to be giving a shit. This no longer surprises me, but there's a difference between adults choosing not to give a shit and adults deliberately keeping information from kids, whose lives will be forever colored by that very information. We are fucking doomed if this keeps up. SALT LAKE CITY - Several Utah schools have decided to let Sept. 11, 2007 pass without observing the sixth anniversary of the unprecedented terror...http://www.rachellucas.com/2007/09/nice_real_nice.html Comments are basically broken.- September 10, 2007 I can't even sign in to make one now. Who can I kill for this Working on Wordpress download as we speak. Sorry for the crappy comment-broken blog today.http://www.rachellucas.com/2007/09/comments_are_basically_broken.html |
