Kelpe

I just learned that the lit­tle bugs that roll up into a ball, that we would call a “rolly poly” as a kid is not actu­ally a bug, but a crustacean.

Recently Net­ninja and Buffer Over­run moved off of my home/business DSL and over to Dreamhost.  So far, things have been really easy, plus Dreamhost has a pow­er­ful web-based con­trol panel that lets you con­fig­ure every lit­tle aspect of things.  They not only have ssh access, they let me rsync my web sites over ssh.  I can­not think of another host (besides maybe Exo) that would even know what “rsync over ssh” is!  Well, plus their FAQ includes ques­tions such as “What hap­pen?” and their monthly newslet­ters have sec­tions like #4 in January's:

4. Data Cen­ter MOVED!

Has any­one seen it?  We can't find it!

If any­one else wants so sign up at Dreamhost, use me as a ref­er­ence.  For each per­son you refer, they knock 10% off of your bill, and I am all about the free discounts.

Today, Kate got me a beer named “Kelpe.”  It is made from blad­der sea­weed.  I hope it ends up being good.  I like seaweed.
