Back
I moved my site hosting to a new account and it looks like that fixed the site not working for a few weeks. I’m still not sure why it wasn’t working right, but it’s good to have it back.
I still don’t have a lot of time ot write, but maybe having things functional again will give me some motivation in that direction.
New Store
I’m testing this out. Let’s see how it works.

I have seen the future of the web and it is shiny [UPDATED]
Web 2.0 is here. Sure, it’s the future of the Internet, but since the Internet waits for nobody, we need to deal with this wonderful future technology now.
Breakfast of Champions
I went to lunch with a friend and Las Vegas blogger Hurricane Mikey yesterday. He actually writes in his blog, as opposed to me. I just pay hosting fees and occasionally pop in with something interesting to say or (more probably) something to complain about.
Fry’s price matching works!
I’m genuinely surprised in a happy way.
Fry’s has a price matching policy. It’s not plastered all over the store, but I found it on the good ol’ Interweb after a short search:
If within 30 days of purchasing an item from Fry’s you see a lower in-stock price at a local competitor with a low price guarantee, Fry’s will cheerfully refund 110% of the amount of the competitor’s low price guarantee.
New Story Appears!
Could it be? A new story?
Nope!
Just testing the web site.

Merry Christmas from the Vargases
Christmas brings up so many fond memories of turkeys at Grandma’s, her special stuffing, presents, and happy family times. Memories of snow, cold, and even some bad weather. So many wonderful memories, and too many to mention here.
Check Your Stats, You Might Be Missing Something
The say that Google page rank is everything on the Internet these days, and that getting it is somewhat of a black science. I don’t write these pages with any particular page ranking in mind. Since “Lars Vargas” is a fairly uncommon name, I tend to rank pretty high (usually at the top) when searched in Google.
The Christmas Decorations Are Up
That’s right, it’s a “Christmas” theme. Not a “Holiday” theme. I’m totally not into that politically correct crap, where we cannot possible offend anyone for any reason, or exclude them.
The New Site Design Is Up
It’s amazing how a little spare time evaporates quickly and a quick project turns into one that takes much longer than anticipated. But such is life.
The re-styles theme for the site is up.
Minor Makeover, More to Come
I have a little bit of spare time to play with the site’s design. The original Lars Vargas design was something I threw together in a few hours in order to get a site up and going. It’s rough around the edges at best, ugly at worst.
Ok, so what IS this mess?
Well, this mess, bless its little heart, is a blog. You probably know what that is, but in the interest of complete disclosure and adding a few extra words to the page, a “blog” is a “weblog”, or someone’s log on the web.
There are lots of different kinds of logs: Yule Logs, Lincoln Logs, wood logs, even Log Cabin syrup.
