After much trial, tribulation and ado, the kitten arrives!

With all this up, it’s obvious that the cat must climb. Climb kitten, climb!

TV bad! The wire is the culprit…must kill wire!

ImageMagick

Reinstalled ImageMagick to facilitate image uploads using these instructions. So far so good. Now I will attempt to use a plugin to manage the images:
ImageManager 2.0 to start… nope
Flexible Upload… nope
Batch Image Upload… nope
Multifile Upload… nope

hmmmmm, not quite there yet…

Seems I should have gone the hard way an installed GD rather than Image Magick. I think I can get Flexible Upload to work for me if I don’t use the resize feature…

Bible

A copy of the Gutenberg Bible in the New York Public Library
L and G

L and Gertrude Stein just out side the NYPL…

Yah, multiple upload but no resizing…

Hmmm, I’ve got Image Manager working now. Just had to find the install of ImageMagick which was in /usr/local/bin But no multiple image upload AFAIK…

I am trying to get GD to work (using these instructions) but i think I may have multiple php installs on the stupid box since I have upgraded it so many times… …

Crowding…

A truly bad poem written in La Guardia Airport

Never been a positive
The prairie vista’s lack the trees
Boreal pressure creates illusions
The view from the mountain top

Always seems the apex

Enforces human interaction
As Birnham Wood approaches
The critical moment crowds near
Life is a collective, a system

Many uncontrolled parts

Is a social stabilizer
Chaos is not a border, nor a choice
The tree line divides but connects
Social systems continually evolve

She is my brother, in my space

Test of Flock

This is being written in Flock, a new social browser that has feeds, integration with things like Facebook and blog/image management capabilities… An interesting experiment…

Web Comics

I ran across a reference to this comic strip the other day so I started reading it. I just got through all 1000+ strips and I have to say its one of the best things I’ve found online in a long time. Well worth slogging through 3 years old of strips…

pedro the lion is so a puppet…Totally happy until he gets into the fermented gazelle blood and banana margaritas, and then he’s like so all over the chimps for being too bossy and gnawing on the giraffes cause they’re so uppity. And then Chiquita the lioness comes home and chews his ass out and he’s so “oh yah!” and then the neighbours complain and the warthog cops come and he’s gets his butt thrown in jail until Chiquita bails him out so apologetic-like, but you know she just wants something and then the stupid cubs tell him they wrecked his favorite bone and he smashes ’em one but then totally regrets it and the cheetahs rat him out so they take the cubs away and his boss finds out and he’s booted from the pride and …well…you know.

I really feel for poor Pedro…sigh
