Some Scary Stuff

My junk store

I am always amazed at how much good junk there is on the North American continent. As the king of junk, I have made a fair bit of money with little or no investment from junk. This past week for example, I eclipsed $1,200 from junk, spare money that anyone would like to have. A number of my... Sign in to see full entry.

If I owned Blogit >>>

Everyone would have a spiffy looking blog template that they could call their own. Even though I can whip up a template for Blogit in about 10 minutes, unfortunately I am on the old format. My templates only work for those who have been here 18 months or more and are using the same format that I am... Sign in to see full entry.

Any ideas what to do with this?

I was looking around the internet for some free scripts to play with. Of particular interest were some of the free classified ads scripts available. After checking out a slew of poorly conceived ideas and scripts that didn't quite have the flexability I was looking for, I came across Noah's... Sign in to see full entry.

I'm the wrong guy to mess with sometimes

If there is one thing in this world that I truly hate it is when some dummy steals from me, gets caught at it and then has the utter gaul to become indignant about it. I caught one such chucklehead stealing a great deal of my development website bandwidth to show pictures in his eBay listings.... Sign in to see full entry.

Wanna see a real blog?

The question is posed in this blog title not to suggest any form of negative implication towards other blogging platforms but more as a means of demonstrating all that is available in blogging options. There are free blogging options and there are some options that cost a few dollars. My public... Sign in to see full entry.

Sometimes the king of junk must act like a peasant of junk

But I can say that it is in keeping with the King of Junk philosphy which is simply to retain the crown at all costs. Getting something for free, (as someone else's junk) then turning around and making a quick $150 will not get me another entry into the junk hall of fame but it will maintain my...

Backing up your computor

I just stopped in to see a friend who has just experienced the mother of all computer data nightmares. His office was broken into this past weekend, they stole his computer and a few other things but more to his horror, they lifted a case of CDs he had in a case in one of his desk drawers. These CDs... Sign in to see full entry.

Need a free HTML editor?

If you are like me (cheap), spending money on one of the widely used web page editors such as Dreamweaver or Frontpage is something that can be avoided. In all of the free software categories, HTML editors seems to have a great number of choices, so much so that it is difficult to make a... Sign in to see full entry.

The results after a week

I've referred to my dramatic method of stopping the auto-spammers as throwing the baby out with the bath water while tying a rope around the baby. Okay, admittedly that analogy sucks but the point is that I wouldn't recommend this method unless you find yourself in the same situation. That being... Sign in to see full entry.

Eliminating spam email - the fork in the road

Yesterday's solution of using an email challenge form has reduced over 300 spam emails on Friday to just 2 in a 24 hour period. Still, this is not the most desirable set up as it relies entirely on a second email sending effort on the part of the client. Filtering incoming emails is still the most...
