Blog Upgrades

February 28, 2006September 29, 2018 B. John 318 Views Blogs, Plugins, Upgrades, Wordpress

I ran through the upgrade process on my Mother’s blog. That went very well, but I was holding my breath as I upgraded the Deep Sand blog. It is a significantly more complex site. However, the upgrade went very smoothly. There are one or two minor problems that will have to be corrected. I think I know how to resolve these fairly quickly tomorrow. There is a file uploader that I use for the photo gallery that isn’t working, so I’ll have to do some research on that. There is an option to it using the Flickr photo system, and there are plugins for that too.

While I posted movie reviews (Date Movie, The Pink Panther), there has not been much else posted lately. I had a pretty bad couple of days related to work and my profession at the end of last week. I have also been busy with work, and the social calendar has been pretty full.

At 1pm, I still had heard nothing from FTD about the delivery of Lay’s flowers. I called their 800 number again, and just had it on the speaker phone on the desk while I continued to work. Two hours later….At least I wasn’t hearing other conversations this time.

It seems that FTD has a problem with their 800 order number (800-Send-FTD). After being on hold for a while, you are allowed to listen in to other callers talking with FTD Customer Service Representatives and placing orders. This means hearing the sentiments, addresses, phone numbers and Credit Card numbers.

By now, I’m sure most everyone has heard about the Vice President shooting his “friend” Harry Whittington. I’m sure accidents can happen, but a whole lot of this story sure does not add up.

Well, it is interesting that after Little Al Gonzales got ripped a new one during the Senate Hearings on King George’s domestic warrantless spying, the King suddenly decided it was OK to declassify some bogus “threat” so he could tell us about it (you know 9/11, airplanes into buildings, be afraid, be very afraid). Bush says he will not talk about specific security threats to America. Unless, of course, he needs to talk about a specific threat to Los Angeles to confuse the public and gain some cheap political advantage.

The New York Daily News reports on an internal Veterans Health Administration (VHA) study showing 120,000 U.S. soldiers — “more than one of every four who served in Iraq and Afghanistan” — have already sought VHA treatment.
