Ah… There’s nothing better than the Red Sox, a Fenway Frank, cold beer, 30 degree weather…

30 degrees?!?! Ok, so it wasn’t quite that cold, but it felt like it at times, and I COULD see my breath around the 6th or 7th inning.

A man is flying in a hot air balloon and realizes he is lost. He reduces height and spots a man down below. He lowers the balloon further and shouts, “Excuse me, can you tell me where I am?”

The man below says, “Yes, you’re in a hot air balloon, hovering 30 feet above this field. “

“You must be an engineer”, says the balloonist.

“I am”, replies the man. “How did you know?”

“Well”, says the balloonist, “everything you have told me is technically correct, but it’s of no use to anyone.”

The man below says, “You must be in management.”

“I am”, replies the balloonist, “but how did you know?”

“Well”, says the man, “you don’t know where you are, or where you’re going, but you expect me to be able to help. You’re in the same position you were before we met, but now it’s my fault.”

This is a simple test post.

The link that you see listed at the bottom of this post should actually be displayed as an inline image. When permalinks are enabled, like they are now, the image is converted to a text link using the image’s ALT tag for the text. If permalinks are disabled (or if I remove my .htaccess file) the image is displayed inline as it should be.

The image is being called like this:

Update: a change to my permalink structure resolved this.

I’m one of those people who sign the back of their credit cards with “Please Check ID”. I do this for a couple of reasons. First, it usually causes the merchant to check my photo ID which also has my signature, and second, I have handwriting that even most doctors would be ashamed to have.

When I sign a CC receipt, it’s little more than a scribble which will vary greatly based on how much of a hurry I’m in at the given moment. This has caused me to wonder just how far someone could go with their CC signature before it was no longer accepted.

Well, I no longer have to wonder, thanks to John Hargrave from Zug.com.
