Y'all remember when TheEndlessApproach -- now blog-deceased -- used to blog about his fruit trees? Well, I liked that, and I'm trying to capture some of that same spirit with my blogging about my basil and tomatoes...

I haven't cruised my own blogroll for a while, so I just spent a few minutes, relaxing, seeing what everyone is up to... It's good to relax a bit on a Saturday; it doesn't seem like I've done that for a while.

Anyways, Koobs is coming back from Europe. Acidman is still alive, Nevermore never posts any more, Seldom Sober's got some more past love documentaries, and Nail in Coffin's got a new look.

And Clara (a.k.a. TSG) actually posted lately!

This is the first post from the new server... It's taken me a long time to get it over here, and, most likely, things will be a little strange as I convert Intel/MS specific php to Redhat... But bear with me. And update your links: some of you have me as yourcomputergenius.com/ec or computergenius.net/ec, but the correct url is http://equivocalcatharsis.com.

Google chronicles my life (via my blog). Wanna know what snowboard I used to ride? Google "Donal Turrentine snowboard." I don't know if that is good or scary.

I know I'm really blogging again when the home page only shows blogs from the last week. And I'm REALLY blogging when it's only a day or two worth.

So I didn't like the double-colons between the date thingies, but I do like the day-of-the-week. And I realize that I don't use most of those categories over there --> so maybe I will axe some of them. I should really just set down a week to hash out the rest of the blog software and get it done, but of course, time is short.

Made some two-second blog changes. I'm tempted to switch over to my WordPress blog server, and sellout on my own blogging software for the time being. We'll see, I guess.

Since I discovered the ease of WordPress (over on my new *nix server) I have been hosting a few blogs at UnZilla.com. So my blog software development is definately on the back-burner. But contact me if you want a WordPress Blog (on Unzilla or your own domain) complete with easy picture uploading and hosting. We can work something out - I'm trying to get tons of people paying tiny bits of money individually so collectively it will pay the whole thing off.

And did I mention how much I like this guy's blog?

Introducing a new blogger from the frozen north...

Ditch Doc can be found at ditchdoc.unzilla.com.

In lieu of actually blogging, I have spent quite a bit of time today working on the code behind my blogging program. It has gotten a lot closer to completion, and soon I will release it out into the wild...

Note the new functionality of the archives, categories, etc, on the side bar. --->>>

You can tell I'm back into blogging (somewhat) because the entire front page of my site is taken up with posts from TWO days...

Some short phrases that GoStats found led to my blog:

I found this somewhat amusing...

If you haven't seen Gizoogle, it's pretty funny, if you're into that sort of thing...

I'm going to code the link-management portion of my blog software soon, I was wondering if I should make it like a blog-rolling option, where it can be syndicated and customized for each individual blog, perhaps in the form of RSS. I probably should, but I'm willing to accept input and criticism.

I fixed the comments over at LiveRevolt (acutally I had not-very-much to do with it, I just sat there while Achilles fixed them, but somehow -- metaphysically, perhaps -- my being was involved and necessary), so GO COMMENT OVER THERE!

I was hoping this day would never come: the day when I would have to blog about the demise of my favorite online news site: our very own Newsfeed Online.

I understand the reasons, the time contraints, the unfortunate realities that unpaid jobs cannot overcome...

I wish the reins had not been dropped, I wish that someone had been able to pick up the reins -- someone with the time on their hands, and the necessary prudence. I even thought of doing it myself. Alas, I am not in a position where I could.

I do not see the site being dormant for long.

Some of us like our new digs.

I like this blogger's stuff.

I am in the process of tranferring the technical side of my blog to a new location. It's still a beta.

As you may have noticed, since I got back and began working again, there have been a whole string of technical posts... It's not that they are out of place here, but just that I get a lot of hits from people who search google or yahoo for answers to their technical problems, and it would be more helpful to that crowd to have all the posts in the same place.

My idea is to keep a rss-like shadow of the technical posts here, so that those who are interested can follow them along.

The mysterious fuzziness in those pics is due not to my camera-phone, but rather (I suspect) to some heinous compression in my cell-phone-network-accessing-pc-card-modem's service. I'll try to connect uncompressed and fix them.

The whole point of a blog - that is, using the "blog" style of publishing - is that your work is visible, immediately/instantly, to the entire world at large. However, the anonymity of the internet guarantees that you don't know who is reading your work or when. Sure, the various tracking procedures can oftentimes reveal the identity of any particular visitor, but, unless you are a maladjusted junkie of some kind, who has either subscribed to or written a real-time website monitoring app (they exist), you don't generally monitor the comings and goings of your online and virtual, visitors.

This extends from the actuality of the site to a detectable presence in the writings themselves. How and why the notion of the indefinte audience affects the author are subjects of much debate and contention, however, we do know a few things about this subject.

After doing much (tongue-in-cheek) research for this article, I have determined that blogs generally do the following things:

- talk about blogs (this blog, your blog, any blog)
- bitch, rant, rave, grumble, groan, moan, meow, or whine
- post pictures relevant to the pursuit of beauty
- are not ordered entities

I mostly write about girls in my journals, when and if I keep them (the journals, not the girls). And since my "blog" has become well-read, I largely don't publish my musings on these particular females in any form except obtuse or obscure poetry. Which means that the "blog" is not the sum total of my cathartic, creative output - it is an artform limited by its very versatileness - or is it?

Is it rather limited by the cojones, so to speak, of the blogger? This blogger was fired from his long-time job because of his blog. I think it's bullshit to pretend to have an "online-journal" of one's life and not then to not post the very things that are most relevant to that life - like girls, jobs, and so on. If I get kicked out of school for what I write on my blog, so be it. I'd just like to see what they put down as the excuse. Further, there's no guarantee that every event related here is truthful, factual, and non-fictional.
Ultimately, the blog should correspond to the author's wishes, much like any song, book, or article. However, this particular artform takes on a life of its own.

BLOGICIDE! Aaah! Flee in terror!

Question: On most people's blogs, if you post a comment, and someone replies to it, do you get an email notifying you of it?

(I had to think about that sentence for five minutes before writing it.)

Should I implement that feature? Whaddya think?

Oh, and listen to the band.

Oh, and my Florida-based webserver is time-shifted one hour ahead of where it should be, so these posts are one hour ahead of what they should be. Guess they don't do dalight savings down there, or something.

This site used to be a full-truth, no-holds-barred, gut-spill of a blog.

Then I went to Africa and two things happened. (1) I did not have regular internet access, and so my journal took the place of my online journal. (2) Lots of family-type people started regularly checking the site for news-type things, and this has, unfortunately mitigated and compromised the content, much to the chagrin of blog ethics.

I am thinking that I will change this, and go back to the old ways, but right now I am going to watch a Woody Allen film [Sweet and Lowdown], something I haven't done in a while.

I am streaming Phish's Bathtub Gin from my home computer whilst sitting in J's flat in Manchester. Cheers!

First on google for "blood sucking parasites"!

2:35 am. Cease Blogging. Commence (Post) Midnight Snacking.

Wow, it's like the old days of blogging... Actually blogging...

Been sorting through a mailbox of mine with several months of (then-new, now-old) news. Lotsa stuff I wasn't aware of. A lot of it from CatholicWorldNews, which y'all should check out, despite your religious what-have-you's... says donzilla...

Number 1 on MSN Search for "bolting down a toilet."

Does it get any better than this!?

Equivocal Catharsis is...

1st on Google

4 out of the top 5 on Yahoo Search

...for the search "Shastine Hudson"...

Haven't checked my eamil since the 26th. 44 new emails. ^#$%^#. And I'm not on a fast connection. Blogging may be light today...

Ok, ok, I've been really bad lately about linking back to all y'all. So... I'm going to do it... one of these days... soon... no, really... sorry... poli sana, as they say here...

I don't think you guys are reading Dominum ut Videam enough.

So... EC is sixth on google for "catharsis greek vomit"...

Which I think, personally, is really fascinating, actually...

If you guys arne't reading Acidman, well you probably should be.

A new blogger has arisen. Check it.

And now folks, this is my all-time favorite search that brought a guest here.

That's right, folks. I came up FIRST on AOL search (and Google) for the phrase "dog shit picker uper." Notice that it's not "upper." That would be too conventional.

I like doing a whole series of posts that end with formal finality, all in a row, so that reader thinks that I left after each one, when, really, I didn't.

So, that's all folks! See ya next time!

Alcohol-and-Pink-Floyd-fueled, it's time to tackle PHP Uploading. It's go time!
