Maggie as Goth Tinkerbell

Tinker-punk. Loved her costume. Not the clearest shot, but she looked
great.

Bush-b-Gone Mobile

:-) loved this thing. Just had to post another picture of it.

At Father's House

Had a wonderful time playing at Father's House with my friends Debbie and Steve Trujillo. They invited a worship leader named Raynee (sp?) and she brought a true and tender time of worship to the body. Beautiful time.

Thanks for inviting me, Steve!

Fund Raiser Night

Our church, Cascade Park Baptist on the wealthier end of Vancouver held
a dessert event to prep everyone for the upcoming capital campaign.
Pretty ritzy shindig.

I played and really enjoyed the musical time w Kent.

But I'm also on record against the building program. I think there are
MUCH more worthwhile ways to use donations. Many in our buddy have
needs, some desparately.

Anyway....

Blog by Email seems spotty

Now I'm trying to post from various points and Blogger doesn't seem to
be picking up the posts. I can't really see the pattern. Anybody have
any hints?

More Florida Hijinx

Greg Palast, who documented
the last
Florida voting nightmare has uncovered new indications that href="http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/programmes/newsnight/3956129.stm">the
Republicans are at it again!. Please read this.

New Florida vote scandal feared

According to Greg Palast for the BBC: New Florida vote scandal feared: "A secret document obtained from inside Bush campaign headquarters in Florida suggests a plan - possibly in violation of US law - to disrupt voting in the state's African-American voting districts, a BBC Newsnight investigation reveals."

Blogger's Cool

Okay, I've been messing with it for more than a day now and I can say,
blogger's COOL!

Quite the collection of features and yet it's still friendly to me
hosting the system on my own server. They host the application and
storage, etc. but the site publishes to my server. Pretty cool.

I can blog by email (as I'm doing now). There's even a service from
flickr.com that handles photo-blog
email posting directly to my blogger site. Couldn't be much easier.

Best part is, I don't have to write any of the code. It's just there.
A service I can tap without thinking much about it.

Email Works!

Blogger even supports post-by-email. Very cool. (Posting from my
sidekick, of course).

Trying Blogger

Well, I'm going to give Blogger a try, before I try creating my own yet once again.

My first blog app was written a year before Blogger, also in Python, but I had no idea the value of where blogs would go. :-) Silly me.
