owen

Today is my last official class in Macroeconomics at West Chester University.  Boy, am I glad for that.  Tonight I will take our third test, and next week is the cumulative final.  Hopefully they're not that difficult.

I have vacation over the next few days, and I'm going to do some Christmas shopping, writing of my paper, and possibly taking Abby to Gymboree class.  I keep thinking like I'm done with work forever.  I'm going to be very disappointed when I have to go back on Monday.

I've been sifting through my web logs, and it has inspired me to create a new column for the site.  It's going to be "strange searches".  It turns out that this site appears in many search engines for some of the strangest topics.  The most recent one is "for weird people pictuers" on MSN search.  (Yes, it's spelled wrong.)  Last month was full of strange ones, too.

When I get motivated to do so, I've been conceiving of writing some code to strain out these search strings from the logs for display on the home page.  Maybe that will boost my relevance?  You never know.

Maybe if I then do a google search for the search phrase and parse the results onto the page under that, it will increase relevance for that term.  Or if I get a link in from someone else's site, I can have the home page link directly back.  Or maybe to a search for sites like the incoming site and post links to those sites, too.  Hmm...  Too many possibilities to mess with the system.

What I really need is a comment system.  Where did that feature get to, anyway?
