Now who wouldn’t want to send this around to friends is beyond me, but works well for this post. All the labour pains, huffs and pufffs, my inner voice cried out “Push! Push!”, the sweat poured off my forehead as gave birth to my new upgraded theme IE7&8 compatible website last night around 12:30 am. Obsessively I thought about it up until midnight last night. I pulled out the Mexican Laptop – and as awful it is to say this, but I will, in the name of my unPC humour – but I think real Mexicans work much faster than this machine. I’m channeling my former Canadian hotel owner in Puerto Vallarta th...

Ok, I’m re-writing this as I’ve chilled out. The frustration of taking on a new theme, not eating all day and turning all OCD in trying to resolve a glitch when I’ve only got “trial and error” working knowledge of websites, CSS, HTML coding, etc. Since Ken has identified that the site is working on his Explorer 7, it may mean that the site is not compatible with Explorer 8, or at least Explorer 8 run on a Mexican Laptop with Vista and only 512 ram.

Last night I shared that I was feeling crappy because of dropping the Lithium out of my repertoire of drugs that I take. It was never to be used for bi-polar, but as a low-dose anti-depressant enhancer with a synergistic effect allowing not to have to raise the dose of the antidepressant, and thus, in theory, less side effects. I had been doing this since 2007 - post rehab. It was quite helpful. Also I had read studies where 300 mg doses of Lithium was helpful in dealing with mild HIV-related cognitive issues, something I struggle with (especially with language). Unfortunately, the Lithium turned out to be almost like Sust...

l have been waxing somewhat less than nostalgic as I’ve learned how much progress has been made in the LGBTTQQ2S community in Niagara, where I went to college and worked through the 1980s. It began as I read the profile of a remarkable young guy, Matthew Cutler, being honoured by Pride Toronto for “excellence in youth [...]

Nata Village has a population of 6000+ people living in six community wards. Each ward, which includes the following, Sekao, Basimane, Maaloso, Manakanagore, Makwenaejwang, and Kachikau each have one chief and a place to hold weekly meetings (kgotla). During the past years all six wards did not have a sign or anything identifying the community by their given name.In the coming month all six wards will have a large sign with the wards name on it. The signs will help each ward by posting announcements for the coming week or any special events. The community will benefit greatly from this project.

Shitting yourself in your sleep is one definite omen of what the following day may bring. I’ve been told to make the opening sentence an eye catcher, so I hope that worked. As it turns out, they (the dentist, endontist, and now oral surgeon) are not done with the other hole, my mouth. After one root canal, one api-something (I can’t spell it), and another opening up of the gums to take a peak only two weeks ago, I’ve now got to go to an oral surgeon to get the f.ing thing yanked out. Thus leaving an onslaught of really nasty antibiotics, and hainess bills to pay. That means once it’s all said and do...

June 20/09 Xtra Party, Times when drink(s) would come in handyEmail this article to a colleague. Save this article to My Clippings. Discuss or comment on this article.
Since it’s getting to be near Pride, and that I never go out, plus the fact that since I’m starting a new project, I figured I should smooze at the Xtra 25th year anniversary party. I arrived around 9:30. That seemed pretty early to me, early enough that there wouldn’t be tones of people. The reality was that at least half of the space was packed and the other half was nearly empty. Heading there alone, I felt that feeling of social anxiety creeping upon me. If I had some friends I’d know I’d have someone to fall back on, but I didn’t. From the very beginning, I knew this was going to be interesting as the firs...
