Thoughts Become Things
ML and I adopted a dog early this year and guess what… she was pregnant. That’s right, I got a 3 for 1 deal from the Faulkner County Pound. The pups are cute but they are two handfuls. We are putting them in good homes this weekend so things around our house will return to normalcy. (sp)
Last night was the weekly meeting for the Science Cafe Little Rock, Sciencecafelr.com. The topic was Arkansas history and the panel consisted of a conservator, a Civil War medicine guru, and an agriculture historian. All I. All the panel was very interesting. Personally I could have listened to the Civil War buff all night. His stories of Confederate field surgeons were exciting. It turns out that the Confederates West of the Mississippi River had to use natural herbs for medicine because they could not easily acquire supies from their brethren East of the river.
As the night went on many questions were asked and I felt better about humanity, that is that there are intellectuals in my local community.
When the nerd session ended a lie jazz band hit the stage. Jazz + Smart Talk is just what my spirit needed. The band was inspiring. There were 6 or 7 members and they each ot their turn in the spotlight. All in all, I will definitely be goin back to The Afterthought for Science Cafe and Live Jazz.
Epic Win.
Back when Wordpress upgraded to 2.7, my dashboard did not show the left column admin features. I did back up my install last week but I have no idea how to pull my old posts out of the database. The old saying is to backup often but I’ve never installed from a backup. I guess I will have to jump into the wp forums. Enough bitching for now.
