General Spewage

Well... I haven't written in awhile, and quite a bit is coming to a head soon, so I thought I'd just site down and write whatever comes out. It may be a novel, it may end right now.
Lately I've been focusing a lot of my time on music. Our band Mimic, is in the process of getting gigs around Utah, so I've built a website for us,...

DSpam and Postfix
PoeticIntensity
For the last few days, I've been fiddling with my new postfix installation (which has been working quite well), trying to figure out how to even out my current 200 to 1 spam ratio.
I'm now trying out dspam, and I have all the routing working, and the web interface is working (finally), but the only problem I'm having is, well... All the tr...

Collin's Testimony
PoeticIntensity
During last month's testimony meeting, our wonderful Luci whispered into Sarah's ear, as the church members were expressing their feelings about Christ, that she really didn't want to go up there. It was totally unprovoked, but as she is somewhat frightened of unfamiliar situations, was totally understandable.
We told her that it was okay ...

Postfix and Dovecot on Gentoo

I really don't know how to begin this entry - at all. I'm still sort of in shock, to be honest.

It was an interview for a Microsoft ASP programmer I responded to about 3 years ago. They wanted a senior web engineer, and I responded with my PHP credentials, and for some reason, that led to an interview.

Proof I Went to a Jazz Game

1st Nephi : 18 - Nephi's Faith

I don't think that ever you will find any words of righteousness associated with Laman and Lemuel, not once, but twice, within 4 verses more than in this chapter alone.
Not sure why that stood out at me this time, but once in verse 1 and again in verse 4, Nephi said that Laman and Lemuel were on good behavior. I thought I'd take time to suc...

1st Nephi : 11 - Do You Believe?
PoeticIntensity
As soon as the angel of God knew Nephi's purpose and desire, the first question he asked him was "Do you believe?".
I think that's a fairly important question, which we should ask ourselves each day. If we are being tempted and we ask ourselves that question, to which we already know the answer, I can promise you the tempter's pow...

Interesting that the council invites the entire Nephite people in the land of Nephi to join in the discussion about how they should free themselves. I wonder why they make a point to note that.
