Part of this video is Willie Nelson’s new single Gravedigger. He does a passable job with the Dave Matthews cover. Boy is Willie starting to look old or what?

Fried Ratatoullie…
Yuck is all I have to say. Rat meat (also eaten in China and Vietnam) became popular in Taiwan in the 1940s and 1950s among people who couldn’t afford chicken or pork. Ho-la, a rural restaurant in Chiayi county serves ten rat-themed meals including rat soup, black pepper-dipped and deep-fried rat. The diner goes through about 40 pounds of rat meat per day.
The rat is also part of the Hawaiian and Polynesian cultures as some of the traditional diet.
Moving to a New Server
My web host has suggested that I move to a new server they have online. That will be nice as it should make things a bit faster. I received this email earlier:
Hello,
Richard, after our monthly server evaluation we’ve identified that your account is one of the top 10 in terms of traffic, and hence server usage. To offset some of the load on the server we would like to move your account to our newest server called Chanel. There will be no planned downtime during the move, and you’ll benefit from the speed the new server has to offer.
Please let me know when you’d like us to schedule the move to the new Chanel server.
Thank you
That will be pretty darned nice. I have had to disable 90% of the plugins and addons for MT due to CPU usage and the fact that I couldn’t even log in. I even had to disable my server stats plugin, MT-VisitorStats because the MT dashboard refused to load even after upgrading to the newest release. It will be nice to be able to use some of them again.
Tramp Stamp Tuesday
Here’s a triple threat tramp stamp!
I will be in Nassau this coming weekend so hopefully I can get a few pics down there to post.
