June’s Model Build Gathering

This weekend, a good number of the usual suspects didn’t show up; but we were still able to get about 14 people over to the build gathering. Rockband was fired up off and on through the gathering, Season 4 of Family Guy was thrown in, the grill was loaded with food, and we also built models.

Hugo & Beanie

Of all the things I write about, I have yet to really write anything about my two dogs, Hugo & Beanie. They are both Pembroke Welsh Corgis, both boys, not related, and about half a year in age difference. Hugo is the tri-color and Beanie is the fawn (for you Cowboy Bebop fans, think Ein.) Although both are very intelligent, Beanie is clearly much more intelligent than Hugo. Hugo is a very quick learner, because he just likes food, and will pretty much do anything he can to get a treat. Their two personalities differ greatly, I often find Beanie sitting on the couch with one arm propped up against the sofa end looking rather deep in thought; while Hugo looks at you and smiles vacantly. Hugo is the more active and playful of the two, and will easily find all sorts of ways to entertain himself such as running around with one of his many toys and chasing Beanie around the house.

A few plugins

I reactivated the “post ratings” plugin. I guess when I updated the blog to 2.5.1, some of the plugins broke, so I never picked up the updated versions and reinstalled them. So ratings are back, for those who care. I also added a plugin that gives the logged users some benefit. Although, I have very few logged users, up until my recent addition a spam filter for registrations; I was getting tons of bot and spammer registrations, so the new sabre plugin helps weed out a good number of bots and spammers. I’m also looking into some other plugins to add a little more functionality and interactiveness to the blog side of things.
