life-jumps-the-shark

I recently got into watching the TV show Life (NBC), which the first season is available on Hulu. The day after Xmas I caught a nasty stomach bug that had me going at both ends, disgusting I know... Anyhoo, I got exceptionally bored over the next 3 days and I turned to Hulu for some episodes of House, which I can only manage to catch on Hulu for some reason (long story). I ran out of House so I started Life.

How to login to PayPal with Multi-User Access

in

Simply put, after you create the multi-user account (assigning them a username and password) they can login in with that information into PayPal. The PayPal login box says E-Mail Address; just enter the username instead, and then the corresponding password.

I spent over an hour online because the accountant said they tried this but couldn't log on. I figured there might be an alternate location for the person to login to or something, but PayPal in it's infinite wisdom neglected to give any sort of information on how the 'multi-user' user should go about logging in.

This is a perfect example of how the simplest explanation is typically the correct one.

I decided to make a simple wallpaper inspired by the Apple logo.

It's available in three sizes to fit most laptop screens.

Today is Friday

Today was the end to a very long week. Not really a bad week, but just long and exhausting.

One of the big things, at least blog wise, is that I successfully converted my 4 year old WordPress self-hosted blog into Drupal. And everything went quite well! The thing I'm missing the most is comment integration with Feedburner, I want it to be able to show the number of comments on my posts. That is something that happens automatically with WordPress since it is the most popular blogging platform in the known universe.

Ugh, timezones smimezones

Currently having a hell of a time getting the time zones straight between Drupal and Ecto.

Glad I don't have a bandwidth cap

I've uploaded 210GB of data over 117 hours. And I've limited the upload to 500kbps about half the time. Guess that's what happens when you have a FIOS 15mbps up/down connection. Ha Ha!

Update: I wrote this on my iPhone with the WordPress app last night and didn't publish it right away and as of this morning I had uploaded 240GB.

Good Twitter design with background images

A few weeks ago I decided to take a little time to make my page look nice. I settled on a design that's contemporary and good for a sophisticated guy like myself ;-).

This has to be one of the greatest things ever posted on YouTube.

I made a playlist with all 10 episodes in order so it will be easy to watch them all.
