    Portable Ubuntu - Part 2 started by Jim Reverend
    As mentioned a few days ago, I’m having problems with Portable Ubuntu. This morning, fed up with my perfectionist ways, I decided to jump through the hoops required to do it the no-brainer way, that Justin suggested. I wish I hadn’t.
    I popped out the laptop hard dri
    Propel: a non-review started by Jim Reverend
    Wanting to shave a few hours off of coding time and avoid all the stumbling blocks that are certain to occur when dealing with writing flexible objects for use in multiple projects, I decided that I'd try to find an existing package to handle object persistance (aka. DataObjects) in PHP. The
    yesterday, today, and tomorrow started by Jim Reverend
    I enjoy having a packed schedule. It makes the down time more enjoyable and keeps me from wallowing in too much madness. Unfortunately, a packed schedule often comes with the stress of those things that are packing the schedule as well as the guilt that comes with the fact that many of those thing
    a flava pick me up started by Jim Reverend
    Or, if you prefer, the non-live non-acoustic version.
    I had only 4 hours of sleep and now have a pounding headache.
    I have to leave right after work today for a Myschievia Work Weekend. I'm not ready.
    But, it's a DITL day, and I feel alright.

    containment issues started by Jim Reverend
    Yes, it's that time again. That time where I bitch about my web presence and how it annoys me.
    I want this website to die. I should elaborate "this website" since I have no idea where you're reading this from. I want revjim.net to die.

    Here's the deal: below are my answers to 30 questions. The questions are secret. If you want to know them, you have to agree to do this meme and post it in your own journal/blog/website/email list/whatever. If you're down for that, drop me a comment and I'll email you the questio
    craigslist love hate started by Jim Reverend
    I love Craigslist. I don't post often, though I have before.� I don't really respond all that often either. I just enjoy the raw nature of it. There so much passion in a missed connection. There's so much excitement in seeking a companion. There are so many new possibilities and opportunit
    help: portable bus-powered USB hard drives started by Jim Reverend
    The last time I looked into Portable USB hard drives, in the end, I simply gave up. I ended up purchasing a 160GB Acomdata drive unknowning what a nightmare connecting it to two USB ports would be. This particular drive requires either an external power connection, or two USB ports to be occup

    When did all you people start actively using LiveJournal/Blogs again? It's going to take me forever to catch up since I haven't checked in over a week. It's nice to have some insight into all of your lives again, though, so I'm not complaining. Just need to remember to check more oft
    ezPublish: slow and crufty started by Jim Reverend
    ezPublish has exactly the right idea. It is Inklog in every shape and fashion. It does exactly what I want to do. It's perfect... in theory. In practice, however, it's not so good. It comes with it's own template system that is slow, crufty and difficult to extend. Not nearly as simple %
    weekend recap started by Jim Reverend
    Jess helped me move my office around Friday night trying to find a setup that's more fitting and less wasteful. I think I may have found something that works. I'm quite happy about this as it had been a source of frustration for quite a while. The room was unusable as it was and always [...]
    sorting out christmas lights started by Jim Reverend
    I've taken a hard look at all of relationships I have that I consider important or meaningful. I try to live without expectations of others but, over time, they build themselves up. I believe that I good chunk of my current frustrations is due to these unmet expectations. A good friend of mine
    Cleanse Progress started by Jim Reverend
    Body

    I went 48 hours without solid food. Then I starting eating one meal a day testing both my food addiction and my potential food allergies. I had to stop the "toxin flush" portion of the cleanse because it made getting to work in the morning absolutely impossible since I needed
    Tung Oil Finish application started by Jim Reverend
    I did a lot of research before deciding to use Tung Oil as the finish for my table. Most of the resources said that the instructions on the container of Tung Oil may or may not be the best way to apply it. And most of them agreed on what the best way was. So, [...]
    body cleanse progress started by Jim Reverend
    The body portion of this Cleanse is going quite well. I've also learned that a drastically reduced calorie lifestyle can really make a difference in how I feel.

    Pros:
    I have lots of energy. Lots!

    My Libido has increased (I guess this is a Pro. Ugh. Send provisio
    mind over matter started by Jim Reverend
    Right now I'm starving. However, I know that I'm not hungry. I've gone much longer than this without food before without even starting to feel hungry. But I'm restless. And my body equates that with hunger and it shouldn't. That's only one of the many reasons for this cleanse.<br /
    a cleansing ritual started by Jim Reverend
    Today I'm starting a cleansing ritual: body, mind, soul. The details of how and why are quite personal and complicated. But I'll tell bits and pieces as I feel like I can. The process itself isn't even that straight forward. Some of it is clear, others have to be invented as I go along
    intensity started by Jim Reverend
    I can be intense. Too intense for some people, I think. I'm trying to work on this and figure out how to control it more.

    Twice this week people I don't communicate with very often have commented on how fast I respond to emails. A friend mentioned that she had forgotten while I w
    a day of moments and thoughts started by Jim Reverend
    I know that most of you didn't like the auto-twitter posting that appeared on my site. In truth, I don't really care for it on other sites either, unless I don't follow that person in Twitter and so long as they have more than just nothing but Twitter posts for months on end.

    you're invited to dinner! started by Jim Reverend
    I'm tired of eating out. I'm nearly forced to do so when I travel for work. But at home, I do have options, yet I eat out a lot more than I should. Most of the time, when I eat out, it's because I'm in a hurry, or because I'm meeting people for dinner.

    So, my [.
    stagnant started by Jim Reverend
    I feel like I need to keep writing, even when I don't know what result I'm seeking. I have nothing to explain, because I don't even understand it myself. I have nothing to share because I feel as though with each passing day I get closer and closer to a complete stop. Stagnant. I have [.
    it always breaks started by Jim Reverend
    I think I'm a target for broken things — broken anything. From techology, to things bought in various stores, to that too-emo-for-my-age feeling that even most of my relationships are broken in some way.

    I go into a Starbucks with a simple purpose: get some Caffiene
    Summer Camp started by Jim Reverend
    This is Celeste being bathed in a wash bucket at my In-Law's Summer Camp in Northern Ontario. I love this photograph for more reasons than I can possibly list.

    The concept of a "Summer Camp" to those that don't live in the North is probably quite foreign. In fact, if it conju

    I'm sure you're wondering, so I'll tell you. The new engine behind revjim.net is bBlog. My setup isn't stock, but it's close. Let me go over some of my changes.
