A few things: we’ve added links on the right sidebar that make it easier to add the site to RSS feed aggregators, along with a link to mobile protein wisdom, for those of you who are so hard up for excitement you feel the need to read my twaddle on your BlackBerries while out and about. You can find that link at the top of the left sidebar. We’ve also added digg links to the individual posts, on the off chance I’ll ever write anything of interest to more than a few dozen warmongerers.
The captchas (turing words) should be online here presently.
On the meatspace front, we’re undergoing our third snowstorm in as many weeks, so I’m going to have to shovel out from under that today. Which would suck, if it weren’t for a pair of particularly snuggly flannel boxers. Like shoveling snow in a Bangkok cathouse—and with half the chance of later getting rolled by some Thai Ninja thugs for your moneybelt!
So. JEALOUS MUCH?

update: Getting lots of emails from people unable to comment—even those who have cleared their cache, etc. Seems the captcha program / log-in function is acting wonky. We will try to get this fixed as quickly as possible.
Sure does feel lonely in here without you guys. Sniff.
Yes, these work.
Sure do. Like the upgrades. Not sure that I’m totally sold on Digg, though I’ve used it a few times.
I’ve been able to comment so far…
Yup, I’m still adding insult to injury. Yay!
Testi, one, two, three?

Hello? Is this thing on? Can you hear me?
1,2,3,4,5,…
Totally. We haven’t had snow at all, except for a little dusting oh, maybe a month ago. I sure do miss it, and all that exercise you’re able to get in the brisk winter air.
In fact, it’s 63 degrees in Boston right now. I’m totally jealous of your freezing temperatures and of precipitation that needs to be relocated. Totally.
I’ll give you a can of green chile chicken sauce if you’ll come shovel my walk too. Sorry, but I’m out of straight green chiles.
By the way, if I click on the ‘your account’ link at the top of the page, the resulting page is blank.
It’s alive! It’s ALIIIIIVE!
Man, I wish I could be adding another State Active Duty ribbon for flinging hay bales out the back of a Blackhawk…
STARVE MUCH? Heh.

Trying to test and see if this works/shows up as me.
Okay, I cleared cache, all the cookies linked to proteinwisdom.com and restarted my browser.
Logged in. Seems to be working, except the “your account” part opens to a blank page. I’m using Firefox 2.
For me, also using Firefox 2, it shows error messages in mod.member.php
…but that would be because, as a fellow EE license owner, I’ve been granted special X-ray vision to be able to see error messages invisible to mere mortals…
What does that mean?
Anyway, the Sears repair we had done to the Land Cruiser didn’t take, so my wife now has to wait for a tow truck, and I have to drop Satch off at a neighbor’s and go pick her up in the ice.
Does nobody take pride in their work anymore?
And she doesn’t have any tools to get it running again? What kind of girlie truck doesn’t have enough tools on board to do anything short of overhauling the motor?
I kid! Besides, in my defense, McGehee was thinking the same thing, I bet.
Sears Auto Center is pretty good with tires. Other stuff, not so much.
The serpentine and fan belts slipped off the pullies again. She’d have to remove the skid plate to get to it, plus she’d have to have spare belts.
Not sure how easy it is in a foot of snow to climb under the car to remove the skid plate and wrestle with the belts, particularly with gloves on.
Funny thing is, this all started with a Grease Monkey oil change. They fucked up the radiator, “reversed” the serpentine belt (which they said was on backwards), and since then, nothing but trouble.
FWIW, here’s what worked for me: Regardless of whether I’ve logged in, I log in (again) via the left sidebar. I don’t know why that works, but it has worked on two PCs now. Then the only problem you get is a 404-type page when you submit a comment. But when I hit refresh, I find it has gone through.
I love the word twaddle.
Eh, even though I’m enough of a nerd to carry some tools in my truck, I have no taste for roadside mechanickin’ nowadays. Best tool to have is a cell phone.
You mean FEMA hasn’t come to shovel you out?
Where are Shepard Smith and Anderson Cooper when you need them? Or Sean Penn, for that matter.
Has anyone checked the local snow emergency shelters for baby rape and cannibals?
I assume you mean the error messages. I’ll check with EE tech support.
Oh God, now I’m having flashbacks to the last time I took a vehicle to a Sears Auto Center. My ‘91 Jeep Cherokee was eating serpentine belts like Pop Rocks, and it turned out the crankshaft pulley had somehow gotten out of alignment. We were on a trip to Brunswick at the time and had already sat at Sears for hours waiting to find out what was wrong—I wasn’t about to let them actually try to fix anything 250 miles from home, so I had to drive all that way back hoping the belt they put on at Sears would get me home and to my real mechanic.
The thought of entrusting a vehicle to Sears… <shudder>
OK. Did the login work? Had to do what Patrick Chester above did, but that may have cured it.
Turns out Sears had not only put the belts on inside out, but that the pully we had replaced and aligned wasn’t necessary: Toyota had issued a release saying to remove the part entirely. To avoid belts slipping off, etc.
I’ll be getting my money back. Either that, or it’ll be Die Hard vs. Diehard.
Yay! I have a TW!
Perhaps it will allow me to post.
Jeff,
I thought it was decided PW would sponsor lotsa tits pics. Don’t see such so far, so get a move on.
OTOH, with the occasional posts by actus & semanticleo, boobs is covered.
Cordially…
Wow. At least in my case the diagnosis of a bad pulley was genuine, and it wasn’t Sears’ fault.
Dang, Jeff. You topped me.
I see a turing word, but I can’t use the login.
Toss caution to the winds…!
Hope you don’t mind42 a little test…
Yes, I’m in. Ok, I have nothing to say. Carry on.
TW: purpose95
I had no purpose in 95and I am guessing I have very little purpose now in 2007.
