I have migrated all but one section of my old site to this blog.

Once I hack my recipe database functionality to a standalone (my wife states that she MUST have the recipe functionality) I will shut the old site down. See the related post below.

EDIT:
I have taken down the old site. You’ll notice that the Recipe Database text in the sidebar is no longer a link. When I finish the standalone Recipe DB I’ll change the text to a link.

Ben Ramsey’s Blog has an entry showing a shirt he designed. The shirt is emblazoned (nice word eh?) with the php security mantra:

Filter Input Escape Output

You can get the shirt with or without the likeness of Chris Shiflett.

I bought the blue/white with FIEO on the chest.

See Ben’s post for details.

I have added a new link category to the blog – Site Navigation. This category is to navigate to different parts of the main site. Among these links is my old image gallery, as well as an inactive link to the recipe database I started but have not yet completed.

The inactive recipe database link will be activated once I figure out how to hack it to standalone, or into WordPress.

I leave Friday for an Antelope hunt.  I’m not hunting, but I’m helping a friend who is.  The more eyes the better.  We have been on three scouts, so we hope to conclude the hunt on the opening weekend.

If he is successful I’ll edit this post and link a pic.

I’m helping my friend on his Antelope hunt, then he will help me on my Deer hunt in October/November.

I’m off to Oklahoma for a week of training. Oklahoma in late June? It may be hot, but at least it’s humid.

Although I will be gathering material on several new work related topics, I cannot take a trip without a selected book for ‘recreational’ reading.

Based on some recommendations I read on Sitepoint, I have decided on The Pragmatic Programmer.

I’ll never be accused of being a programmer, but I’m sure that I’ll get something useful from it.

EDIT: I found this to be a very interesting book.

I’m also well into a C#/ASP.Net book, but that happens to be for work. Once I finish the C# book, I just might start something on Design Patterns. I read about them, but I lack even introductory knowledge. I would like to, more-or-less, understand the posts I read in threads such as this one in the Sitepoint Application Design forum.

So many books, and so little time.
