I realized after a recent upgrade to WordPress 3.0 and after changing my blog’s address that I was tired of my old blog’s look. I was really impressed with the new default theme for 3.0: Twenty Ten. It’s simple, aesthetically pleasing, and supports all the new features of 3.0.
Since my new job requires me to learn a lot of PHP and HTML I’ve used some of my new skills in developing a child theme for Twenty Ten. Child themes are great! They allow you to basically extend and customize an existing theme in a way that won’t break if the theme gets an update.
My blog’s old domain, law-family.org and bradford.law-family.org, are set to expire in November. The reason I initially registered the law-family.org domain was to create a family website. My family
traditionally has communicated by mass email and reply-all conversations and I thought it would help to give them something different. They rarely used it however so I decided to simply focus on my own blog, that’s why it’s now theblawblog.com. Since I have several articles that get regular hits from search engines, I worried that my articles wouldn’t be very visible. I decided to try writing up some redirect rules for my old domain in the lighttpd config file so that anyone going to my old blog links would be redirected to their new addresses.

Last Thursday I finally left Bacolod, Negros for San Enrique. I first stopped off at the Carriedo family and had a nice time seeing Pinky, Opie, Bambie, and Tisay again. They even fed me some delicious adobo. After that I stopped off at the houses of a couple friends in San Enrique.

After I posted the last two posts on Monday in La Carlotta I felt a hunger stirring in my loins. This hunger was a little suspicious, however I trusted it and bought a bag of popcorn and some water. It was late and I was exhausted, so I went back to the pension house I was staying at (Comfort Inn, I believe; a block west of the plaza) and went to sleep. The air conditioned room made it very easy to fall asleep.
Zzzzzzzzz………
ZZZZZZZZZzzzz…

I left Sipalay Friday morning around 11 am. I walked back to my bike where they told me that I had to wait a couple hours for the tide to go down because at high tide the road going back to the highway was covered in water. A couple guys who walked through it showed me the high water mark on their shorts to make their point. I just said I’d see what it was like and put my gear on and left. Once I got to the water it was a lot of fun driving through it, until I hit the deep water and
