The evils of Wal-Mart (among other things)

By Matthew Trevino + August 31st, 2007

The effects of the new Wal-Mart that will soon be opening have already been felt in Maumelle, Arkansas.

E-mail link for posts (and possible bug in 2.3)

First off - the bug. Any post with a slug that is a number only comes up as “not found”. For my last post (”1984″) it would come up as not found until I changed the slug from “1984″ to “1984-itsallconnected” and presto - there it was!

What free time?

By Matthew Trevino + August 28th, 2007

With everything on our plates nowadays, it’s a wonder we don’t die of pure exhaustion.
