…about the Macro errors. Hope to resolve them soon.

Tuesday morning: trying to fix Macro error.

Well, not quite, but at least the site finally updated again.

Do I know why? No.

Am I tempting fate by making some changes (adding Trackback, removing some badges, adding monthly archive links)? Yes.

Well, updates are still going through, and I like monthly links, but the Trackback addition is still problematic. The ping went out fine to at least one site, but for anyone who reads the site, rather than the RSS feed, there is a weird Macro error showing on the page. Turning Trackback on and off in the Radio prefs hasn’t changed anything in the display. I’ll dig a bit more, and then back to bed.

Posted to the Discussion group. We’ll see.

OK, so I saw the meme from Caterina on Michael Sippey’s site, so I’ll jump in.

The instructions:

1. Grab the nearest book.
2. Open the book to page 23.
3. Find the fifth sentence.
4. Post the text of the sentence in your journal along with these instructions.

OK… nearest book is Curious George rides a bike. It does have more than 23 pages, fortunately (46). But there is only one sentence on the page, so counting sentences on successive pages, we find the following on page 25: He wished he had listened to his friend and kept close to the house.

Not bad as a summation of the plotline.

The next closest book was Dr. Seuss, The Cat in the Hat’s Great Big Flap Book. Hmmm…
