I Wish Other Web Apps Were Built Like Wordpress

Wordpress really is a very well built piece of software. Wordpress is what I use for this blog. I’m working a new version of this site that will be completely managed using Wordpress as a CMS. Same thing for my business site. That’s how powerful Wordpress is. Development is very active and I love the theme system and the modular system of plugins. Everything just works and it works well. I often find myself wishing other open source projects were built the same way like ecommerce shopping carts or client billing software. Basically something that’s standards-based and is very extensible.

I Hate Driving

I’m not afraid to say that one of my flaws might be my impatience in certain situations. Like driving. I don’t know what it is but I just want to get from point A to point B in the least amount of time with the least amount of obstructions. Other drivers and other cars just piss me off. Traffic lights annoy me. Stop signs annoy me. I hate having to hit the brake. It’s funny because I yell at other drivers but they can’t even hear me. A lot of things bother me about other drivers, and trust me there are a lot of bad drivers out there.

Lost Season 3 Finale

I’m watching the 2-hour season finale of Lost right now and I just have to say.. OH MY GOD. And it’s not even over. Even though the episode doesn’t answer ANY questions or mysteries about the island, it sure is INTENSE.

Lost just finished Season 3 and all I have to say is:

NBA Playoffs 2007 Update

Man, the Spurs v. Suns series is brutal! And Nash seems to be taking the brunt of it. There is definitely a lot of animosity between these two teams. For me, this series has cast a very dark shadow on the Spurs. Bowen is just despicable. What Horry did at the end of Game 4 was completely unnecessary! Now I’m rooting for the Suns to go all the way. I especially want them to win the next game. That would be the sweetest revenge but it’s going to be very difficult with both Stoudemire and Diaw out (unfair suspensions, but rules are rules). I was rooting for Golden State but yesterday’s loss was so disappointing.

Hooray for Golden State

I didn’t want to say too much about this because I didn’t want to jinx anything but.. HAHAHAHA Dallas Mavericks and Dirk Nowitski, you suck! GS all the way! This was the best series and most fun to watch so far. Man, those 3-pointers are like daggers! Who wants to watch the Eastern conference play slow basketball and miss shots? BORING. Like the East even has a chance at the championship. Tell me which team in the East can keep up with 120 point games or 30 point quarters.

Okay, this post is a little incoherent but I just wanted to chime in on how the Warriors rule for beating Dallas. Congrats to Golden State and Nellie.

See’s Gourmet Lollypops Are The Best

Man, I love these suckers. They’re so good! By the way the title is not a mispelling - they call this particular product “Gourmet Lollypops” and I think it ships out of California. I’d definitely recommend everyone giving it a try. There’s 4 different flavors and they’re all decent but I like Butterscotch and Vanilla best (other 2 are Caffe Latte and Chocolate).
