Wax ooon… wax oooof

I found this bonsai tree nursery right near my house, so my friend and I decided to go check it out. He literally had like 300+ bonsais and he nurtured each one.

Here was his most prized one.. its 65 years old and is the only one that exists because that part of china was destroyed.
This one is so rare its not for sale, and thats saying a lot considering his 2nd best one was $5000 and didnt even compare to this one.

Here’s mine

I noticed my PR went from 0 to 1 (GREAT SCOTT!!)

That’s nothing, but I figured this will be a good time anyway to perhaps look at making this blog serve some purpose other than talking about my travels. So I’ve gone through like 5000 technical errors having to do with anything from su_php, wordpress, databases, sql max upload limits, and probably every error under the sun related to web servers in general, things not working, etc. So I’m going to make a ‘technical’ section, and any time I come across a problem that I have to research on how to solve it, I will post it in there.

What sparked this idea was I had to fiddle with liquidweb forever to get wordpress to be able to write via ftp to the host. Things like upload image, update automatically wouldnt work until I had to figure out how to enable su_php module. Things like chmodding to 777 even (bad idea) still didn’t help. Turns out the module makes it so access rights are branched out to the user or something, and then it works. So if you run across this when youre doing web work on someone else’s server, thats more than likely the reason.

I’ve updated the portfolio with some of my work. I left a lot out, and I also included a lot of stuff from 2002.. it’s a great wide variety though, some great some not as much :}
