No Runny Eggs

The repository of one hard-boiled egg from the south suburbs of Milwaukee, Wisconsin (and the occassional guest-blogger). The ramblings within may or may not offend, shock and awe you, but they are what I (or my guest-bloggers) think.

One UGLY week

by @ 18:35 on March 25, 2006. Filed under The Blog.

Sorry about the lack of posts. Let’s see what all went wrong this week:

- The South (I refuse to call it Atlanta) regional continued to be my Regional of Doom; I lost my national champion Duke out of there, and I will finish under .500 for the tourney.

- My unplanned computer upgrade didn’t go as smooth as planned. Had some power issues that I think I finally solved by locking the voltages and frequencies at what they should be instead of letting the system adjust them at will.

- Scott Walker dropped out of the governor’s race. More on that in a bit.

- I’ve been getting some spam comments sneaking through my anti-spam defenses. I’d rather not have to make everybody register to comment here, but if I must, I will.

(Revisions/extensions) - Forgot to mention the bad sensor on my car, which I did mention on Monday. At least that was under warranty, though my 15,000-mile checkup wasn’t.

    Steve, check out the Spam Karma 2 plug-in for Word Press, I installed it a few days ago and it has really helped a lot.

    Strange… I hope this doesn’t show up twice, but if you try the Spam Karma 2 plug-in for your blog, I think you will be happy with the results. I installed it a few days ago and it’s working great.

    You’re not the only one under .500 for the tournament. Though, despite the fact that my picks have been long blown (just one Final Four team left in the tourney), it’s been a heck of a tournament to watch. How about the Texas/WV game?

    I’m just hoping the seeming parity in college ball transfers to the NBA. If it does, I just might start to watch the NBA again….
