To: All the complainers in cyberspace

I sat down during office hours this evening (thankfully there were no students visiting) and fixed some of the problems people have been complaining about.

  1. I fixed the header links. You can now get to my calendar with ease
  2. I am now XHTML 1.0 Transitional compliant. Yes I had to hack the Wordpress source directly (the problem wasn’t in the theme that I had installed) and this once again affirms my belief that PHP is a HORRIBLE language.
  3. I now have threaded comments on my blog. Dusty will have to find something else to complain about. Not saying they’re great, but they are threaded.

    I love how your solution to making the links work is to basically remove the majority of them. But hey, they work as was requested so good job man. And dude, PHP isn’t pretty but it gets the job done - you wouldn’t have a website without it.

    It could have been something in J2EE. Dynamic AND structured code.

  3. shoe Says:

    I thought you found java inferior as well. And last I checked, there was no J2EE version of wordpress . . .

  4. shoe Says:

    Here’s what you need to do - make a J2EE-like infrastructure using an OO-based functional language for web development. That would be like your own little joy-gasm.

    Not saying that there is a J2EE version of Wordpress. I’m sure there is a J2EE blogging tool.

    Why don’t you have your own little joygasm with Ben.

    Wow, hostile today

  7. shoe Says:

    Oh and dude - there IS a PHP version of Wordpress - it’s the only one and the one you’re using. Do we have to go back to the lessons on actually reading your own writing before hitting submit buttons?

    I don’t even know how I got brought into this…you guys are all talkin’ in french canadian and all of the sudden I’m having a “joygasm”….come to think of it I don’t even know what a “joygasm” is…seriously people, english if you’re going to call me out, then the “serving” can commence…

    Hehe, don’t mess with he who can change content…

  10. rmorlok Says:

    Shoe, can you go ahead and explain the birds and the bees to ben?

  11. Ben Says:

    I didn’t mess with anyone…I was just sitting here and I was attacked. Though I must say this “Dusty” character knows his stuff. These “threaded comments” you kids are using these days are an affective means of communicating. Perhaps I shall subscribe to HIS newsletter…I’ve subscribed to Brian’s for about 9 years now and all that does is get women annoyed with you, and makes Morlok rock one’s world…it’s about time I try something different.

  12. shoe Says:

    Screw you man, screw you. You’d be dead without my newsletter

  13. shoe Says:

    And I think maybe morlok needs the birds and bees explained. The term was “joygasm” not “orgasm”. Why you gotta be all sexual with everything morlok? This is the internet, yo u can’t be talkig like that on the internet

  14. shoe Says:

    Wow, bugs in this here threaded comment system. It cut off the words at the end of the line (hence the you with a space and the inaccurate spelling of “talking”

  15. Morlok Says:

    Ben, you rock.

  16. shoe Says:

    I love how I am nice enough to alert you to the fact that Morlok brought you into a conversation (in a bad light) and you go on there and rip me. Nice.

  17. shoe Says:

    And what was the “Hehe, don’t mess with he who can change content. . .” referring to?
