  • Shutting down my other sites

    After years of neglect, I am shutting down OnTheSoapbox.net and CustomCommunity.org CustomCommunity.org is being shut down because it is no longer the focus of my business and has not been since I partnered with the guys at Four Roads over a year and...

  • Quit Smoking with Magnetic Therapy

    Those of you who know me, or have read some of the older posts in my blog, know that I am somewhat of a skeptic. I am also a recovering smoker. I still struggle with occassionally having a cigarette from time to time, but it has been almost almost 3 years...

  • CS Media Gallery

    Well, now that the Beta for CS 2008 is out, I can safely point out a feature that is remarkabley reminicent of a suggestion I gave nearly two years ago. http://trefry.net/blogs/michael/archive/2006/07/13/649.aspx I am of course referring to the new Media...

  • Gotta love them Televangelists

    Whooeeeh! There was Jim Bakker, Jimmy Swaggart, Paul Crouch, Ted Haggard, an now … Richard Roberts! Richard Roberts son of Oral Roberts and current President of the Oral Roberts University is fighting a number of allegations regarding misuse of funds...

  • Quote of the Day

    It's been a very long time since I've done a Quote of the Day, so I thought I'd throw one out there for your contemplation. I am driven with a mission from God. God would tell me, 'George go and fight these terrorists in Afghanistan'. And I did. And then...

  • Return to Blogging

    Well it’s coming up on a year since I wrote, and I feel pretty bad about that. My only excuse is that since I broke off from the corporate world to work on my own, I’ve been pretty busy. It’s strange. While I thought that I would have more time to myself...

  • New Host (Yet Again!)

    My websites were down today for a few hours because of a recent move away from ASPnix to my own dedicated server hosted with CrystalTech. I seem to have been doing this moving thing a lot over the last couple of years, but now that I've reached the pancea...

  • Get Out The Vote

    Today is the big day! I know it’s just mid-terms, but this is, I think, the most important mid-term election in my lifetime. It’s kind of exciting. (I know, elections, exciting?) But here in Connecticut, we’ve got one the highest profile...

  • Double-Super-Secret Blog Posting

    A new tool to be released in the very near future is allowing me to make this post directly from my email. In this case Outlook. Can you guess what it is? Published with blogmailr

  • Who Killed the Electric Car?

    Not me! After watching the movie, and being exposed, for the very first time, to the radical idea of converting a conventional car to an electric car, my girlfriend and I were inspired to give it a try. So after researching a bit about how this might...

  • New Software for CommunityServer 2.1

    Ok, so I know I keep switching around where I'm officially hosting my downloads, but this is it, this is final, I SWEAR! All my new stuff is now over at http://customcommunity.org which just so happens to be the web site for my new company Custom Community...

  • Blogging from Word 2007

    I just found out about this feature of Microsoft Word 2007 (beta 2), so I had to try it out. For the most part you can ignore this post, if it works, you’ll know it’s a pretty cool feature. If it look like junk, you’ll know it still needs work

  • Resume of George W. Bush

    I recieved this by email from a co-worker and thought it was a wonderful run-down of our current president and his administration. However, because I refuse to be part of the chain-mail problem, I won't forward this to every voter that I know. Instead...

  • Announcing Custom Community Systems

    I’ve posted a couple times about my wanting to take my part-time business full-time and the responses, while few, were encouraging. Well, I’ve made the decision, I’ve given notice, there’s no turning back now. Starting September 1st, Custom Community...
