I recently came to the realization that my best friend in Fredericksburg is my 12 year-old neighbor. I just can’t avoid the fact that I have never really progressed beyond the sixth grade; I am still so dearly enthralled by the product-inspired wonder of my youth. Whether it be Star Wars (and this encompasses everything [...]

I am trying to move the bava to a wpmu installation so I have something to blog about. I expect that the site may be down over the next 12-24 hours during the move. I know this is very horrifying for many of you, so I just wanted to encourage you to be strong [...]
I discovered Godwin’s Law after reading this thread on the WPMu Forum. Here’s an excerpt from the Wikipedia article:
Godwin’s law is often cited in online discussions as a caution against the use of inflammatory rhetoric or exaggerated comparisons, especially fallacious arguments of the reductio ad Hitlerum form.
The rule does not make any statement as [...]
My very own WPMu blog
Published by September 11th, 2007 in WordPress and wordpress multi-user. 3 CommentsTruth be told, I really don’t consider bavatuesdays an Ed Tech blog. In fact, it is first and foremost a b-movie blog that never really got off the ground. Instructional technology has colonized this idea, and if you are brave enough to subscribe to this feed you probably have to deal with a [...]
I am officially taking bavatuesdays off Bluehost starting this weekend, so there may be some extended downtime on the bava. All day today I have been unable to access this blog regularly because of CPU errors and, quite frankly, I’m ready to take the bava off of my experimental hosting account I got through [...]
I don’t pretend to be much of a soccer fan, but Diego Maradona is just about one of the coolest figures of the last 30 years. Just imagine taking Italy by storm, and in particular Naples, with sex, drugs, and one hell of a dance routine. Enjoy this gem.
It is always fun to see what search terms send people your way. In my case it’s usually keywords like De-Animator (the flash game), Simpsonizer (the Simpson-ized self-portrait maker), or Felix the Cat -now these are all topics I have talked about on a few occasions, but they don’t necessarily reflect the meat and [...]
Intermittent presents of endurance and hope on Flickr
Published by July 16th, 2007 in museums. 1 CommentOne of the things I love about my Flickr photostream are the intermittent gifts from my contacts. Fotoedge’s images regularly provide me with a beautifully textured and preserved Americana of the Mid-West. Whenever he uploads a new photo I am sure to spend some time thinking about the relationship between our state of mind [...]
Interesting how the reverend conflates radicalism, liberalism, leftists, and communism in his “God’s People” speech (disambiguation please!). More than that, it is frightening how his rhetoric seamlessly frames all these political positions as perversions that have come way too far “out of the closet” for his liking. You have to hand it to him for [...]
…and be careful of those fireworks of mass destruction, kids. Yet another gem from the Internet Archive.
