In this registration system I’m currently coding, I have a custom Zend form to deal with a group of checkbox/input pairs (which I’ll post about later). For Zend forms, these come out with names like fieldname[row][number][whichfield]. Yep, three sets of square brackets. Fun fun! It works great for the Zend […]
Tonight I finally finished playing the PS3 RPG Ni No Kuni: Wrath of the White Witch. I started this game February 7th, so it took me 171 days to finish it! That’s a pretty long time, especially considering it ended up being only 60 hours of actual game play time. I […]
Way back in 2013, I posted about using ColdFusion to pull data from an iTunes-capable RSS and CFFEED’s funkiness with it. For that post, I just put the bit of code that took the RSS contents and put it into a DB. It was a script for a client, that […]
Only two goals done this month and added a few more on the basis of my new overall plan for improving the cooling/heating situation in my house without getting central HVAC. Really need to work on knocking out some of those smaller goals :-/ Financials Pay off the $5,000 personal […]

I finally decided on a tablet last week and went to pick it up Friday. So which one did I finally decide on? Saturday I picked up a Targus 3D case (mine looks slightly different, with a nice magnetic latch, so maybe an older version of this one, but I […]
Financials remain on track, another goal cancelled, a little progress on some, and I added two new goals. Also got going on one goal before I could even put it on the list: give my laptop an upgrade with a new SSD and max out the memory (parts ordered anyway), so […]
