Theme mod

Personal,

I got to give props to the everyone who does web site design, if I only had that kind of imagination… but I live in the real world and that kind of creativity is just not me. I do find it challenging to make changes working with what others have done. I am a fan of the guys at Binarybonsai as they have done nice work with K2 and the now WordPress default Kubrick.

So as I started to look at themes and what I could do I kept coming back to what The Glass People have done for WordPress. A simple to column theme with the sidebar on the right. So off and on for the last few weeks I’ve been making little changes to the css and php to where I think I’ve got what I want. Tonight was the final mods.

You can see from the standard theme is wasn’t much but I like stuff clean so fonts and colors had to change as well as a bit of modification to the sidebar.

Home page update

Personal

Recently I’ve been toying with the idea of promoting a consulting business on my home page as for a while now it has been under construction. Well I’ve decided if that is going to happen it needs to be different. So habbenet will be the front end to my world moving back to where it was before but maybe this time a little more on target.

Points hard to come by

Personal

As I commented in my last post every once in a while the planets align and you have a good game, get some points and a win. Since then I’m back to the norm and can only contribute defense as no points have come in the last couple games. Sunday was a marathon as I played 9 holes in the afternoon before three games (ice hockey) after 4:00pm. It does not happen that often I’ll play three in a day and normally when I do I say I’ll never do it again.

So I’ll never do it again…. till the opportunity presents itself. :)
p.s. Should also mention the above would never happen without the wifes approval.

7 point night

Personal

I’m greatful every day I can get on the ice and play some hockey. The two leagues I play in are filled with guys who have played high school, college, minor league and yes even NHL level… but most of us are just regular old guys who want to keep playing. For me I feel lucky that after playing for only five years they let me skate with them.

So on a rare occasion the planets align and a good game comes alone. Most of the time I’m on defense which suits me just fine but I will play forward from time to time… Wednesday night was one of those. Four goals and three assists in a 13 – 1 win for us, Labatts. Those games are fun and make up for the others where we are on the other end.
