I have been trying to come up with a new design for the website. Update the look and feel a bit. But everything I look at or try or modify just does not have the same feel as this design it’s rather homey to me. But I am open to input and ideas what would you like to see in a new design of the site?

Go check out
The Website is Down for the full video.

So true to life it’s comical.

Also RSS feeds have all been redirected to appear as if I am inflating my actual readers.

So today came some really good news. The old domain name for the site that I retired became available so I picked it back up again. This site has been through a few changes. Here are the former pages as follows.

1. www.expage.com/pages/craze15 (No Long Exists) Internet Archive
2. http://tjpipo.bizland.com — I got this site when I was using Frontpage and wanted frontpage extensions to do “cool things”. It no longer exists but I think you can find it on the wayback machine
3. XMDude.com — Well this site came about when I was a Satellite Radio obsessed junkie and was going to be a journey into a review site. But I didn’t have the time to devote to it and XMFan.com was founded instead. XMDude.com just redirects to this page now.
4. SiriusDude.com — This site came about when I kinda lost the idea of XM Satellite Radio and went to Sirius Satellite Radio and worked with SIriusBackstage.com
5. TristanPipo.com — What you find today.

So 2005 came about and I let siriusdude.com expire and fall into the pits of the internet. Some spam site took it over and the domain was just left to sit there. I got a notice saying some e-mail was unable to deliver to siriusdude.com which had me wondering WTF mate! So I went to see what was up with the domain. It was available so I picked it up again and now back to an all good domain happy family. I feel so complete right now.

Hello everyone I updated Wordpress the blogging engine behind my site to version 2.5. I must say the new interface is rather sleek and I can’t wait to try out all of the new features. I have been working on a redesign of the site and that should be completed when I find some free time.

I haven’t had much time nor desire to bust out my laptop and login and update the world on my life. Once I get life into a balance I will be back to updating and my normal self. I hope everyone has been well. My contact information has not changed.

But been kinda odd going from a 2 bedroom with a roommate to a 2 bedroom 2 bath with a girlfriend. Odd having rules and things being expected of me. Mostly things that were not a problem before are now a problem. Like WTF it wasn’t a problem before and now it is. Oh well there is always a learning experience.

Cheers!

I log into myspace and I scrolled down the screen among the billions of other useless links I get an image of people with to much time on their hands. I guess I can see how other people waste precious life. At least I know I can sleep at night knowing how well Queen Josephine knows Melissa. Actually I won’t since I didn’t click on the link. Some people don’t pick up on sarcasm well.  I would also note that every single person on that list right there has a vagina. Not one of those people has a penis.

At least it doesn’t annoy my blackberry with useless e-mail forwards.

Well I was getting tired of people who still seem to enjoy the hell of myspace. So I found a solution for my blog that will automatically update my myspace blog letting people know I updated my real blog. So you are reading this now as a test that this new system works.

I hope all is well with the myspace world.

So I have a new feature for those that would care to use it. Well I guess I have two new features. After many requests Stalker Dave now has access to the blog again. But he is aware of the warnings. So he shall be around.

Feature #2 is a pretty cool one for those that are interested in it. You can now subscribe to the comments form. It’s a little checkbox when you leave a comment. If you don’t want to comment but want to see other people’s comments you can just put in your e-mail address and they will be yours for the reading.

Now I don’t save your e-mail address or anything. If you use a fake one the system reports back and basically I get a warning that certain IP Address used a fake e-mail address. Which is good for the Spam Filter on the site. Currently I have 1429 spam comments I need to filter through to see if anything is good.

So anyways enjoy the new feature. Cheers!

Hello Everyone,

I just wanted to make a little blog post that I have been working on the blog this lovely Sunday morning. Raleigh is asleep so I figured I could get some web tasks done. So some of you may have noticed that when you submit a comment you get a totally funky database error that makes no sense to anyone.

The error looked something like this.

“WordPress database error: [Table 'tristanpipo.wp_post2cat' doesn't exist]

SELECT cat_ID AS ID, MAX(post_modified) AS last_mod FROM `wp_posts` p LEFT JOIN `wp_post2cat` pc ON p.ID = pc.post_id LEFT JOIN `wp_categories` c ON pc.category_id = c.cat_ID WHERE post_status = 'publish' GROUP BY cat_ID"

So I took the time and found that a rogue plugin on the site was causing the error. A few searches on the comment authors support forum found the answer and the issue appears to have been solved from my end.

I hope all is well on your side of the earth and I must admit having my blog back in working order is nice. Cheers!
