Links, Blog, Tech Stuff and More!

September 12th, 2006 by Carl Thomas.

1. I have been on a blogging frenzy latley but wanted to post a few things of varrying importance.I have a soft spot for missionaries but I have a special affinity for Holy Ghost missionaries. I discovered a missionary drunk on the new wine a while ago while he was waiting to go to Brazil. If I had any money I would sponsor him but you all know how broke I am so he will have to settle for this plug and my prayers. Carl (great name by the way) keeps a great blog about his adventures adapting to a new country.

Brazilian medical system works differently that anything I am accustomed to. I€™m not exactly sure yet how it works, but I am most definitely sure that I€™m not accustomed to it.

and

Chatting with the guard, asking about his family, inviting him to dinner sometime, and wishing him a good day is also some insurance against getting shot should you inadvertently drift into the wrong line and have to be escorted away. It is, after all, considered poor manners to shoot someone who has invited you to dinner.

Just a few of the informative quips. Check it out and follow the adventure of hislegs and see if they, “first explode or burst suddenly into flames.”

2. If you don’t have Cocomment, get it. If you have a blog, get the plugin.

3. I am looking for a new webhost. Mine is not very good. I need xNix, CPanel, Fantastico, shell access as well as the ability to host multiple domains. I don’t need phone support. If you have a lead, let me know.

4. If you don’t use firefox stop reading. Get the TrashMail plugin. Once installed, you right-click in a mail for box and post a disposable email address. I keep it set at 2. So once someone has sent you 2 emails, the address gets deleted. My wife completed a form online last week and gave her real email address. She has gotten close to 1,000 junk emails since. With trashmail that would have been 2.

5. If you are still reading this far get a life.

    My son-in-law David Russell got up connected to 1and1.com. The have good rates and it works for us. The only negative is their webmail loads kind of slow. But when you stay in the boonys like I do daylight is slow!

    And of course I know just enough to make me dangerous!

    I am glad they are working out for you. I read a bunch of bad reviews about them.

    Anyone use dreamhost or bluehost?
