Re: Is there a way to delete your websites listed

revjim — Tue, 18 Nov 2008 20:52:37 -0000

If there is a way to do so, I have yet to figure it out. Daniel indicated that he could delete them for me by request. I just never bothered to ask.

I am almost certain that they do not.

Re: Why I Switched Comments to Disqus

Not sure if it makes a difference to you, but I've switched from Disqus to IntenseDebate. You can read why, here:

Re: Interacting with the Outbrain ratings widget

Your link to outbrain does not include the TLD (.com). It just happens to work because our browsers are smart enough. It should probably be fixed.

Oh dear... BUY a ticket NOW.

Outstanding. From the beginning I chose Disqus over I.D. for a reason. I've yet to regret that choice. You're new open API makes it even less regrettable.

Actually, it's every 8 days. :)

Re: containment issues

I think you're right. 2 websites would be best. I can update the social page with a little "hey, I added a blog entry" deal whenever I update my other sites. The social page will be the culmination of all the daniel sites, but only in brief with links back for more reading.

I think this is the best idea yet. You rock.

Re: help: portable bus-powered USB hard drives

revjim — Thu, 11 Sep 2008 20:43:23 -0000

I've found that the success it highly dependent on both the host USB
ports and the cable. I am now able to get a WD Passport and an
Acomdata drive working on 3 different machines with only one USB port.
Just took a lot of trial and error to figure it out.

Re: this past week

revjim — Thu, 04 Sep 2008 17:49:04 -0000

Damn. I'm really glad too. If I hadn't, it would just be another thing
in the long list of regrets I have. That isn't to say I don't have
some regrets from the past week (and more)... but... at least I know I
got that part right.

I hope you are well, Mel. You are in my thoughts.

Well, I, for one, am glad to see you writing again. If you all keep
this up, I may actually start using LiveJournal directly again as a
regular, you know, LIFE blog for people who care about me. *GASP*

This post is quite old. I'm not sure what the state of EZPublish is these days.

Ha. Damn it you're right. I was getting this terrible movie confused
with another terrible movie I saw called "Cabin Fever". Ha.

Re: sorting out christmas lights

revjim — Fri, 15 Aug 2008 18:23:11 -0000

This is true. It is better to mention our expectation. I guess I have
trouble in even realizing that I'm having them. Then, in some cases, I
have trouble mentioning them because part of the expectation is that I
won't have to do so.

Thank you for your thoughts.

Re: Cleanse Progress

I hope I do too. It feels good to breathe.

Re: body cleanse progress

revjim — Mon, 11 Aug 2008 20:12:08 -0000

My hopes are that NOTHING will go into the void. The void will just be
there, for itself. To be filled and emptied with whatever pleases me at the
moment.

Re: sorting out christmas lights

revjim — Mon, 11 Aug 2008 18:26:07 -0000

Bingo.

That is, of course, my fear. I've done a cleanse like this before. I lost a
lot of friends. I was very lonely for quite a long time. Some of those
friendships were built back. Many were not. I do feel happier in each of
those relationships than I was before the cleanse, but, I was left with such
a strong guard that making new friends or even building ones that still
existed seemed impossible.

I can't shut off. I'm trying not too. I keep reaching out to people, here
and there, hoping, begging for something to help me hang on.

In the end, something will give.

Re: body cleanse progress

revjim — Mon, 11 Aug 2008 18:24:06 -0000

This is possibly true. But, at this point, it's simply not going to happen.
In a few weeks, I can consider adding even more cardio to the cardio I'm
already doing if that's what's needed. That's a whole additional bout of
research and thought and planning I'll have to do. Forced exercise has never
been my forte. I'd rather just get out and do. And as it is my time is
limited and I'm already devoting a chunk from a few nights a week to cardio.
I'm not going to step it up any until I'm sure that's the best use of my
time.

And a void is not always a bad thing. Imagine a glass without a void. Would
it even be useful?

Re: body cleanse progress

revjim — Mon, 11 Aug 2008 18:20:09 -0000

Agreed. That's the next step. Get clean, then reintroduce myself back in
slowly.

Re: body cleanse progress

revjim — Mon, 11 Aug 2008 16:38:16 -0000

Maybe so. I'm not really interested in that right now. While losing weight
is a nice side effect of this, it isn't the goal. And neither is getting in
shape.

Re: body cleanse progress

revjim — Mon, 11 Aug 2008 15:13:08 -0000

Ha. Well, body cleanse and exercise do not exactly go hand in hand, though
they are related.

However, to that point, the exercise has already begun. I was already pretty
active, more active than most people I know. But I've thrown in 30-45
minutes of aerobic activity 3 or 4 times a week as well. Since starting this
on Friday, I've walked 3 miles (drenched in sweat, ugh), and done 1 hour of
aerobic and strength training exercises.

Re: mind over matter

revjim — Sun, 10 Aug 2008 15:40:05 -0000

Thanks! I'm actually doing pretty well. Quite a bit of residual sodium and
only about 100oz of water each day. I've been the exact opposite of dizzy
and light-headed. I'm generally that way and this has made me more stable
and I have more energy too. The only negative so far have been headaches
but, a) I get those almost every day anyway and b) I'm probably suffering
caffeine withdrawal.

Time off for this would be good. But, I'm trying to do it while working.
That's probably going to be the most difficult aspect. I'm going to have to
get up quite early to get it all out of the way before I leave for work
every day.

Re: a cleansing ritual

revjim — Fri, 08 Aug 2008 20:28:12 -0000

I'm going to the Farmer's Market tomorrow morning. And most likely my
parents house on Sunday night. Other than that I'm free to do anything that
doesn't involve drinking or eating.

Re: intensity

revjim — Wed, 06 Aug 2008 23:25:18 -0000

Ha. That is ironic. To be honest, I've never noticed you being too intense. But... maybe being that way myself, it just seems normal. I've also never noticed you to be too slow. :)

The site widget is a good idea. I'll implement that. I'll go mostly unseen
since most people read my site in LJ or via a feed reader, but, I'll put it
in anyway to be complete. :)
