I am a carbon based creature! Some would say of a higher form than most but then that will always be left open to interpretation! For the most part am a Southern boy with an overall cranky disposition.

the LZ – keep your head down!
Feb 2nd
This blog has been put in a content freeze!
This will be kind of an open apology about there not being much of anything here. I’ll must likely have this be my latest {and my last for a while!} post so it will be the first thing that most folks see when they come in. I probably should have kept this whole thing private until I learned what I… Continue reading
My Step by Step Learning Process {1}
Jan 23rd
FROM THE GROUND UP!
Permalinks and web hosting changes!
I just spent the last two days going back over my posts to make sure that the permalinks were working correctly! I also found how to get the blog to come up under my hosting name without the Wordpress sub-directory showing in the address bar. The latter was super easy! Go-daddy had set up Wordpress for me so I… Continue reading
Finally, a compass bearing or the direction of this Blog
Jan 22nd
I started this blog late last year and then the holidays came along. As with most of us I dropped off most everything else and just enjoyed myself. Coming into the new year I reassessed the look and direction of this whole blog thing. With this new category I will attempt to show a measured look as I learn what I’m doing. I made a mistake and started out… Continue reading
To click or Not to click?
Dec 23rd
Still just muddling along but in my research so far I must admit that I am getting a almost paranoid feeing about opt in boxes and all those other little forms/landing pages. I have always watched software and their insidious little checked boxes to add me to their mailing list for new product offers but am now seeing how many places out there that have the little sign up boxes Continue reading
Linux – Get IT!
Dec 21st
If you can read and aren’t too afraid of losing your windows setup to some OS from an evil empire then I would strongly suggest that everybody at least try some distro of Linux. Personally I think that Debian is a good applicant! In my opinion it is extremely stable. Provided that is the what you are looking for. They have three different branches or releases that you can install Continue reading
Money & Blogging
Dec 19th
It’s out there! We’ve all seen it and from what I can tell there are a lot of people making money off of their blogs. At least I would assume so otherwise why all the little funny {and somewhat annoying} highlighted word and adds. I have up until now imaged that If I wanted to make money with this blog that I needed some kind of product or service that Continue reading
First Impressions of Blogging
Dec 17th
Hummm! As I walk around in the world of blogging I see a bunch of stuff about making money with a blog. OK! Making money is always a good idea but for me, with this blog? I’d have to say that the jury is still out on that! I see a bunch of stuff about Squeeze Pages and how to pick a niche for the product or service that I Continue reading
A newbie in Linux land
Dec 13th
Several years ago I decided to investigate Linux. I down loaded about 90% of the major varieties and loaded them. A lot of them wouldn’t even load on my machines! As most of my computer work is now business oriented I was looking for a stable and ultra secure OS. I haven’t had a systems crash or lost data since migrating to Linux. I know. You’re saying but Debian Stable Continue reading
Discoveries in a Binary World
Dec 11th
First in line came the PC! I stumbled onto an old 8088 IBM machine that was setting on a back desk in a construction office. Grabbed me a book from the library and learned how to run DOS on the dusty old beige box that nobody else knew what to do with! Now for something that is in fact a glorified adding machine that just blew me away. I spent Continue reading
