Stalkings

I haven't been stalked since high school. Any takers?

WebSphere AdminConsole not starting

On WebSphere 5.1.1.3 Network Deployment:

Get an error message stating that the virtual host or webgroup /admin/ is not configured.
After verifying that the dmgr was starting without serious error, I did the following:

• Started wsadmin.
• Ran $AdminApp uninstall adminconsole
• Ran $AdminConfig save
• Ran $AdminApp install /installedapps/adminconsole.ear
• Note that I did not install from installable apps. I don't know if this makes a difference, but it is what the linked web page recommended.
• Ran $AdminConfig save
• Restarted the deployment manager.

Bingo.

The worst Member

A friend from theNaz Church came to visit me today. At one point in our conversation he asked me, "Are you a member?"
"Yes," I responed.
"Wow - You're, like, the worst member I know."

"Thanks?" ...

A History of God - re-reading

Went to church today and heard what amounted to a pretty good sermon. I don't understand, however, the fear and avoidance of ideas that is so often encouraged in Naz-dom.

Actually, book burning was mentioned, which gave me a heavy feeling in my gut.

I recognize that I'm angry at nothing in particular and looking for an excuse to hate any given sermon, but why do they make it so easy? Preaching against knowledge, against tolerance, against so many of the ideals I hold dear.

I've decided that I do no want my children raised in that church, no matter how good the people are.

Now, to break the news to Mom...

yikes.

Great anarchy Symbol

Wow, is there any way in which Penny Arcade doesn't kick ass?

Happiness

Happiness is a new puppy to befriend an old puppy (pictures forthcoming)
Happiness is your 2yearOld daughter holding your earlobes, one in each hand, and licking your nose.
Happiness is the cool quiet of evening in a small town, sitting on your deck and watching your children play in the safety of your back yard.
Happiness is an old friend visiting unexpectedly, and talking for hours and hours about the times, both old and new.
Happiness is the embrace of a beautiful woman so blinded by love to not realize that she could do better.

I am a very, very happy man right now.

The Donnas

Wow. They kick ass.
