As you can see North Carolina was fabulously windy and brisk today. A lovely and perfect day to be out and about rather than in an office doing a programming course. But the day one of the course is good and I am happy.

Here are few notes, bits, and links from today's browsing:

1) More troubles between my phone and Flickr: I had to send the above tulip photo three times before it appeared in Flickr. It showed up first time around on Vox.

2) Excellent article on the truckers of East Africa by Ted Conover. Go read it.

3) Tom on the Tube. Photo by George. Must visit London soon, so that I can go to dim sum with Tom and catch up.

4) Having trouble with MAMP and my Mac. MAMP works with all types of files as a localhost for me, but not PHP. And it is supposed to be Mac-Apache-Mysql-PHP. hmph. Wonder if the additions to the config file to allow for SSI caused a disconnect with the functionality to interpret PHP on my machine.

Update: Solved my MAMP and PHP problem thanks to Splash of Style.
