Das eez kaput! Sometime around 2002 I spaced the entire database table that mapped individual entries to categories. Such is life. What follows is a random sampling of entries that were associated with the category. Over time, the entries will be updated and then it will be even more confusing. Wander around, though, it's still a fun way to find stuff.
August 26, 2003 Montreal I got in the car and started driving at 06H30 this morning. <snip /> I told her I would get up early and fetch her around 07H30 which, notwithstanding the traffic on the way back in to town, would give me a couple hours to work before I took her to the airport. You can see where this all going, can't you? Everyone said that it only takes about 45 minutes to get to Lachute from Montreal. And it does. And it did. On the way back. After I threw the directions that she'd been given in the back seat and simply trusted the map. The lesson here is clearly : always check directions against a map. Had I done that earlier I might have noticed that there are two route 148s in Quebec (separated by many kilometers), that route 139 doesn't exist, that the turn off to route 158 isn't actually marked and that route 158 is in fact a very short country road with the second route 148 at one end and a major provincial highway that leads straight into downtown Montreal at the other. I pulled up the driveway at 09H00. But we made it back eventually. I had baked cookies for her to take up for the rest of the week and there were still some left which helped ease the aggravation on the way back. And then, on my way back from the airport, a rock came flying through the driver's side window while I was driving 110km on the 20 Eastbound, ricocheting off my head. I can't find the rock (which I can only guess came off the big truck with the tarp that I was passing) and all I have to show for the adventure is a bump on my head. Otherwise I appear to be fine. A bit dazed, maybe, but it's hard to know how dazed I already was when I was struck. I'm just glad I didn't have to figure out how to cross three lanes of traffic with a face full of blood.
Fun hacks like this make me wish that MT had a license that allowed distribution of modifications to its core. Although the plugin interface is flexible, it's a dead-end in the long run without the ability to dig in and change things under the skin.
Yours is the only country that has ever invaded ours, and it would do so again in a wink if it thought its interests here were seriously threatened.
MT plugin authors, those of you who don't also agree that Amazon is one the evil-doers, go forth and wet yourselves with excitement!Net::Amazon provides an object-oriented interface to amazon.com's SOAP and XML/HTTP interfaces. This way it's possible to create applications using Amazon's vast amount of data via a functional interface, without having to worry about the underlying communication mechanism.
I'm just too tired to take this one on, right now. I will just say that, so far, I've found most of the arguments lazy and I would rather be reading it "in print"...This is painful to behold for someone who prayed earnestly that Isabel Archer would not return to Osmond, but words are symbols and are ideally suited for the manipulations of the symbolic logic of computers. The processed book takes Isabel Archer and shows her to be the collection of words that she is. She then can be processed.
