		<description>Secure Wordpress is one of the coolest plugins I know, even though it does nothing flashy---it automates a lot of basic safety features I used to have to do by hand.  Especially automating the blocking of bad queries and the wordpress version hiding are the best features of the lot but also the hardest to do if you&#039;re not technical. 

Secure Wordpress rox0rs. I&#039;m going to have to donate to them soon.</description>

		<description>Thanks twice over: it&#039;s good to be reminded how important this is, and I didn&#039;t know about the Secure Wordpress plugin.</description>

		<description>I wish we could institute some of Flagstaff&#039;s light-pollution laws here. And, well, everywhere.
 
I grew up in asmall town where if you go out to the edge of town (between the last church and the interstate) you can see lots and lots and lots of stars. Or the yard light from a farm 2 miles away. But even there, in town most of the houses have really bright &quot;security&quot; lights that make it unpleasant to walk around at night...they are supposed to make things safer, but they just make everyone close their blinds and kill my light-adjustment so I can&#039;t see anything outside the range of the light.</description>

I had never realized before how much normal pillows can suck. 

I&#039;m probably going to have to check in luggage the next time I travel. This thing is large but oh man it&#039;s so worth it.</description>

		<description>Hello Ken Dawes, 

Thank you for your apology, and I&#039;m glad you accepted mine. And I&#039;m glad you&#039;re a good guy. 

*shakes your hand* 

Another thing: Mur is a woman :) she writes cool fiction and podcasts. 

I know what you mean about WordPress installs going wrong and suchlike; and security tips are always important.</description>

		<description>Yep, none of us is perfect... Though for some reason I always like to think I&#039;m more perfect than I am.

When I saw your conversation with Mur Lafferty about his hacked site, I wanted to offer him some tips to help keep his site from being re-hacked.

I was lazy...

In Tweetdeck I just clicked on &quot;retweet&quot; for a tweet between you and Mur, stripped off the conversation and tipped in my message and link to my WP protection tips.... I neglected to strip out both the &quot;RT&quot; and @arachnejericho. 

That was an error on my part... and I do apologize to you. No excuse for being lazy.

Re &quot;Website driving&quot; Yes, I do that with posts like these. I know that. Working on websites is my business and for better or worse twitter is part of my marketing. 

However, I never send a tweet to anyone about content on my website and then give them a &quot;bait and switch&quot; with information that will cost them to get it... I hate it when that&#039;s done to me and I don&#039;t want to to it to anyone. 

If folks look at what I have offered, and then decide that it&#039;s over their head and want me to do work for them... Well, that&#039;s business. And I welcome it.

I try to provide good content for WordPress&#039;ers. There are many who get overwhelmed with getting their WP going and just need a little assistance. 

One of the Tweets I do send regularly is my &quot;WordPress Wednesday&quot; tweet. On Wednesdays I ask for folks&#039; WP questions or if they have problems and if I can solve it in 15-20 min, I do.. Gratis. 

Once again, besides being a &quot;nice guy&quot; and trying to help out, which I honestly enjoy doing, it&#039;s marketing too. I may not get any business from them... but they will mention me to their acquaintances who may have need to hire me...  I see so many screwed up WordPress installations done by &quot;professionals&quot; that I need to fix...  

So, with the hatchet buried, I offer my hand to shake...</description>

		<description>I have one of those memory foam contour pillows, which is smaller than a wedge, but larger than a regular pillow.  It is a pain in the butt to pack along on all my trips, but I do it anyway.  Any morning I wake up without pain and the ability to move my neck is a good morning... and worth the hassle of packing the special pillow!</description>
