As those of you who have visited the site today will have noticed a few things are different. I decided it was time for a change and then looked around for a design that was to my liking. I am pleased with this new layout and made a quick and dirty custom header with the Fight Club font. This will just be something to last through the weekend and after that I will have some more time to work on a nicer looking heading, maybe even re-incorporate the old design header into this one with a bit of a change. Anyways, look around, tell me what you like, what you don’t like, and I’ll take that into consideration. Have a good weekend. God Bless.

UPDATE 5/16/07 3:49pm: Version 2.2 just came out yesterday, hopefully it won’t take me this long to update to this newest version.
I started this blog last year in July with WordPress version 2.0.3 and there were several upgrades since then that I had not implemented (with the most recent being 2.1.3), not so much from ignorance, but from apprehension. I wasn’t confident that I could properly perform an update and not break this blog. Today I decided to give that a try and if you can read this then it was successful. You can check out WordPress’ explanation for the most current upgrade below:
Tags: Nerd Alert, Site Updates, WorkWell, I got a little bored over the last few days so I decided to update and clean a few things up around here.
Thanks to the Ajaxified Expand Post NOW plug-in whenever you come across MORE>> in a post and click on it then instead of taking you to a completely different page it will just extend the page.
With the new Fancy Archives implemented in the Navigation sidebar to your right you can now collapse the Blog Archives to your liking to declutter or expand the headings to find the posts you want going all the way back to 2003.
I also then completely rewrote the About page. It was in need of an update and I think it flows a bit better now as well.
Since I’m sure most of you don’t like to visit everyday to see if there is a new post, I have added a Subscribe page so that you can subscribe to my blog and be notified anytime I create a new post.
More updates to come when I find something new I want to add.
Tags: Site UpdatesFolks, I apologize for the downtime earlier today. My database server failed this morning and I was not able to get it back up. Contacting the Hostdime support team alerted them to the problem and got them to work on it. This was a problem that affected several other users, not just me. But I have been informed that all is well now and the fact that I can post now is evidence of that. Ok, everyone, get back to it. And Melanie, in case you didn’t get through all my posts yesterday while at work for seven hours, you now have the opportunity to get through the rest of them, may God have mercy on your soul.
Tags: Site Updates, WorkI have finally, and tediously I might add, finished uploading my backlog of posts that I still had laying around on my web server dating back to February 15th, 2003. Some are interesting, most are not, but I figured that I would make it a complete update of all the content I still had access to, now if I were you I would keep checking back for when I finish the Photos section, which should be updated daily and of which I will alert everyone to it’s completion (now nearly 20 pages as of 7/11) and to the updating of Site Archives and the old Quote of the Week section, so, until next time…
Tags: Pictures, Site UpdatesThe Gun Show had to be moved to a larger venue. I am sure you are all saying to yourselves, “Well Jared, it’s about time you did something new with your website, when was the last time you updated, over a year ago?” That would be correct, so to remedy that I have completely redone the form of this website and it will become primarily a blog. As you can see with the importing of a smattering of my posts from back in 2004 when I began this whole blogging deal. Unlike last year’s “remodel” I will finish importing all my old blogs and other archived material throughout the rest of this week. So keep checking back for more value-added content. Now it is just WAY too far past my bed time, so with that, I bid you all adieu.
