WordCamp Dallas 2008
I’m looking forward to attending my first WordCamp this weekend in Dallas. I’ll be eager to learn from the great lineup of presenters, and hopefully, personally say thank you to some of you who have contributed so much to the WordPress community. Be sure to say hello if you’re attending too. I’d love to meet you.
I believe they are still taking registrations, so you may not be too late to sign up if you haven’t already.
It’s Spring and Even the Porcupines are in Love
Happy spring everyone! Our Illinois Winter has seemed a little longer this year so it’s nice to feel things warming up.
Every spring I recall an old Looney Tunes or Merrie Melodies cartoon from my childhood. The cartoon starts out looking like a nature documentary as the camera pans through the forest. Then the narrator says, “It’s spring … even the porcupines are in love.” Two porcupines repeatedly pucker up, kiss, then jump back in pain with an “ow ow ow ow!” You gotta love that classic Looney Tunes humor.
So here’s a little spring quiz for everyone. What is the name of that episode and is it available anywhere?
My kids are probably tired of hearing my wife and I quote it every time someone mentions spring. 
I’d love to show the cartoon to them but I can’t find it. It would stand to reason that it may be a Pepé Le Pew story, but I’m not sure. We own the first three Looney Tunes Golden Collection DVD box sets and it’s not on any of those.
Happy Pi Day
Happy pi day to everyone. Here’s the dessert we served tonight in honor of the day.
I know, purists might only celebrate at 1:59 and 26 seconds, but we saved it for dinner anyway.
