Poll for the audience: What's a good, affordable, RELIABLE webhost? Features I'm looking for: Unlimited domains, unlimited IMAP email, subversion, shell access, php/mysql support. And of course, lots of storage and bandwidth. Recommendations? :D

Here's a link for you: More men taking wives' last names. The article itself is short, but what's interesting is the range of responses you'll see in the user comments.

I went to see Gizmo yesterday, and let him run around in the grass for a bit. It was fun, but it also made me a bit sad. He's a unique little bugger, and it's hard to look at him and realize that he's actually very old for a dog. I talk to the little guy like I would a person, a lot of the time--I generally do the same with kids, too, but that's a soapbox point for another time--so I guess I miss him like a person.

Anyhoo! We leave for Berzerkely tomorrow morning! (hint to Bay Area people: come see!) My weapons bag shoulder strap broke off yesterday, and I accidently whacked myself in the head with my staff at practice last night. It aches like nobody's business. Owwww. I am trying not to take these two things as an omen. XD

I'm half-scared, half-indifferent. I kind of want to drop one, maybe two of my events (staff and nanquan) because I haven't practiced them enough, but eh, whatever, I'll do them anyway. This year feels different, because last year I was so, so hoping to win or place, whereas this year I don't really expect that at all. If my beginners do well and have fun, that'll satisfy me. There's a small part of me that wants to do well, so I can do *them* proud, too, but it's more about them than me.

Anyway, today is almost over. Woo! And I got my hairs cut! It looks cool. THE END!

hair pics, hair pics!

I would highly recommend my host micfo.com. I like them SO MUCH more than any other webhost I've had. The only thing I don't like is their webmail clients, but now that I can use gmail for all of that I don't care. :D

OR MAYBE take them as omens that you've gotten all of the small glitches out of the way now, and so the trip itself will go smoothly!

And I got my hairs cut!

Ha! That reminds me of a smart-ass middle school bit:

A: Get a haircut?
B: No, I got 'em all cut. :P"

...which, the first couple times, left me thinking "WTF is a mall cut?" shutup -_-;

how much you spending? my website admin can probably match any place you get, plus he's a really good guy.

I always recommend LunarPages to people - if I had to buy my own webspace again, I'd go there first.

When are you showing your stuff? I'll literally be right next door to you hanging lights in the Playhouse for Berkeley Dance Project - I'll try to come over on my lunch break. Good Luck!

They don't know exact times for the events, but probably sometime in the afternoon. :)

[skeets.livejournal.com]

Oh yeah, and the Extra-Awesome Wushu (i.e. the advanced events) are supposed to happen first thing in the morning. :)

Take a gander at http://www.phpwebhosting.com/

I think it might be what you're looking for in a host.

[skeets.livejournal.com]

Heh, that's what I have now! They don't have IMAP e-mail.

[randvek.livejournal.com]

Haha, small world.

I wasn't sure about the e-mail. Odd that they have so many features but not IMAP. Wonder if there is a reason for that.
