We’ve had our back door open all day today because it’s so beautiful. This has allowed Ester and Russ to go out as they please. We just sat down to rest a bit after hanging curtains in our dinning room. We looked outside and to our chagrin, Ester had grabbed Russ’ e-collar and he backed up therefore taking it off. They proceeded to play.
Luck? I don’t think so, they teamed up…I can’t stop laughing.
And you may be asking why is this such a big deal? Mainly b/c I have about 2,100 files @ 500GB in my iTunes library spread out over multiple locations on my disks. The problem is, if I don’t account for them all, I stand to loose all the items I’ve purchased from iTunes.
Backing up that many files to DVDs would take forever. With a quick search, I found a way to backup your iTunes library to an external hard drive. I’m going to give it a shot. Wish me luck.
Today, Russ finally got his cherry eye fixed. When the vet called letting us know he was ready to go home, she said he was grouchy. He was more loopy as the anestesia had not completely wore off yet. He just ate a little bit and is now resting as well as you can rest wearing an e-collar.
Here’s a great stop animation film about dueling t-shirts. The best part is, the t-shirts are for sale.
While reviewing the commercials from the Super Bowl out of some morbid curriousity, saw the one from the NFL that is just cool.
In case if you missed it, here it is.
When I was in elementary school, I wanted to be a weather man. I never became a weatherman, but thanks to the Weather Underground, I have taken one step closer to reporting on the weather.
We have an honest to goodness snow storm going on in Nashville. Actually, we are closer to Columbia. Russ is enjoying his first real snow. It’s the most snow I’ve seen since living in Colorado.
Recently, I was working on a web application that provides the ability to download data to a CSV file. It is a .NET 3.5 web application.
To generate the CSV file, I created a custom httpHandler for the extension *.csv. The goal was to allow any request for a *.csv file to generate the desired output by querying a DB.
Everything worked great on my laptop but did not work when I deployed to the web server (IIS 6.0).
What gives?
The problem was that on IIS, I needed to add the *.csv extension to the MIME type map. I pointed the executable to the ASP.NET dll and viola, it worked.
I’m the one with all the mortgaged property. I had to mortgage
everything to pay $1,275 in rent on one of Charlottes properties with
a hotel. It was game over after that.
