Issues with embedded video

March 27, 2009

It appears that the TinyMCE editor which ships with WordPress 2.7 does nasty things to HTML in a misguided attempt to be helpful.  In particular, it strips "embed" tags from embedded media (such as flash video), leaving only the object tag. The end result of this particular example is that embedded video shows up fine [...]

The movie makes it more dramatic

January 29, 2009

I'm reminded at this time (thanks, no doubt, to previews for Ron Howard's movie Frost/Nixon) of this gem from Richard Nixon: Well, when the president does it that means that it is not illegal. And thanks to the magic of YouTube:

I got better

January 26, 2009

And because I can't get enough animal transformations, here's one from Monty Python and the Holy Grail: Sir Bedevere: What makes you think she is a witch? Peasant: Well, she turned me into a newt! Sir Bedevere: A newt? Peasant:...I got better.

The M is dead, long live the M

April 17, 2008

This weekend's drive has driven home the realization that my car is gone. (Assuming I even can drive with my knee shot to hell. Squash is a bloodsport dressed up with golf claps and lets. But I digress.) But I won't go on moping about it because a) the new car in the stable is [...]

At this time, CNN is projecting...

March 4, 2008

I'm generally not a fan of CNN -- I don't like their gimme interviews, I can't stand their tabloid website, I don't want to be an "I-Reporter." -- but while I've been enjoying MSNBC's intelligent journalism, CNN went out and picked up some giant touchscreens.
