The hosting company that I use had a major hard drive failure, which resulted in me loosing some blog entries. I've been able to recover those using the cache at Bloglines. The following posts are now back:
- Parental Filters
- Namespace discussion
- Look at me I'm on TV!
- What is an SVG?
- Firefox 1.5 beta 1
- Letters from Katrina
- Microsoft marketing
Sorry to all those who have a reader which is going to show all these as new entries again. I realize they were painful enough the first time <smile>.

How to know you're in OC
Today I took a trip where I ended up in a grocery store in Orange County. Orange County is an area to the south and east of LA which is stereotyped as being conservative. Conservatives are definitely the minority in California, so they get harassed. But, I was in this grocery store, and I looked at the magazine rack next to the register. On that rack was the latest issue of "Vanity Fair" with Paris Hilton on the front, covered. There was a little plastic insert over the front of the magazine so all you could read was the title and see Paris' face. Yeah, it's a touch risque, but nothing I'd worry about covering. I guess that's just how you know you're in The OC.
