The 24 Hour Upgrade

tbbs is now proudly powered by WordPress 2.2.3. My simple-minded upgrade script placed something where it didn’t belong, so I resorted to my old command line approach of copying stuff around by hand. The value of a good backup was brought home yet again.

Thanks, WordPress!

NASCAR HotPass Lineup

The drivers, and important numbers for todays running of the Pennsylvania 500 at Pocono Raceway are as follows:
#31-Jeff Burton, 795
#11-Denny Hamlin, 796
#24-Jeff Gordon, 797
#12-Ryan Newman, 798
#99-Carl Edwards, 799
Dale Jr is not in his familiar channel 799 slot today; presumably, winning the pole will make up for that.
