yay for the fat vegan

ryan fixed my blog. all broken becasue of one little closing tag in the wrong place

have i broken it?

it seems that i may have just broken my blog and i’m not sure how i did it or if indeed it is broken.

if you are using mozilla firefox to view this page is the background white?

it should be white but on jenny’s computer it seems to have dissapeared.

oh humph!

I’m back

for some reason my blog has been down all morning, but now its back. I think smartyhost must have broke themselves. I sent them some emails asking why my site was down, they replied telling me that iwas all fin and fixed. So then i had to email them again and say the same thing becasue it wasnt fixed. But now finally it is.

I could have lost my audience becasue of smarty host, all 2 of you.

the future is dark

I know you may not be wanting to use a muslim online dating service and you also may not really want to help support the bounty associaction of California, but you can click on the ads. The more you click the more i can blog, you see my server is almost full and once its full i cant afford to upgrade unless i have dosh.

So keep the dream alive

support thehowie.net

click on the ads.

So popular

this is a graph of visitors per month to my blog.

I”m gonna be rich

having ads is fun.

I get about 6 cents (US) per click through.

so far i have made $1.30 (US)

I’ve sold out

Well you have probably noticed that my blog now has an advertisment at the top and another one on the side in the menu bar.
And you are probably thinking. “what the hell is he doing?”

Well you see i’m not a very rich man, so any little bits of money i can get are very welcome. So i signed up to get ads from google and i get paid on the amount of click throughs.

I have tried to get the as little intrusive as i can. And the ads will be tailoured to the content of my site, so it shouldnt be too bad.

I’m sorry if it makes you angry, but you’ll live!

upgrading time

Well i know its getting anoying for me and probably you too.

Soon my comments will be fixed. Soon order will be restored.

Currently i am using wordpress to power my blog, but one of the files has managed to get corrupted. So David the IT man is going to help me upgrade to a newer version of wordpress and hopfully solve all commenting problems and also make it so spammers have no chance of leaving comments or trackbacks.

so yay,

eta about two weeks.

ok i havent fixed my comments, but i’m on the right track. Chris helpem me get a template happening again. now i just need to fill in the missing php.

While my comments are broken i figured i need some sort of make shift commenting system.

so if you want to leave a comment just email it to comment@thehowie.net and tell me the post you are commenting on and i’l stick the comment at the bottom of the post.

bit dodgy but its better than nothing

Comments:

Jenny You’re right this is dodgy

Michaela C well i have never posted a comment on your blog so i thought it would be fun
to do it know! well doing it this way might be dodgy but at least you get
comments! no one puts comments on my blog

Due to comment spam overloading by online casinos.

you can no longer place a link anywhere in a comment incliding in the webpage box.

sorry.

stupid blog

is my blog broken.

can you see the links list on the side ?

or do you have to scroll all the way down to the bottom of the page?

It seems to work in some browseres but not in others.

Newness

as you can see i have a new template. all very exciting.

Anyway the image at the top isnt very interesting so if people want to make me some I’ll put them up. The image size i’m looking for is width 600 pixels and height 300 pixels.

yay!

I’m getting a big head

Yesterday was the biggest day in the history of my blog. I have never had more than 200 visitors in one day, last week i had 199 and then yesterday 214.

you crazy people

Road Work Ahead

Caution workment ahead! My blog might look at bit ugly over the next few days, I’m just upgrading a bit and giving it a bit of a makeover. But due to my slowness it may take a few days.

I’ll still be posting just the template is a bit of a mess.

cheers

housekeeping

Just to let you know that if you leave a comment on this blog and you put a link in the comment, like in the actuall comment box then it will not get posted. Thanks to my trusty spam filter. So dont put links in your comments cause it just means you comment gets deleted. you can put links in the box that says ‘homepage’.

ta

just thought i should clear that up because i think some people (aside from texan online casinos) have been putting links in your comments.

beans beans the musical fruit

i get quite a lot of hits on this page from people searching for stuff in search engines. THere is normally quite a few funny ones.
This one stood out, it occured on monday.

“girls eating beans and farting”

Yep someone typed that into a search engine and for some reason they eventually ended up at my blog.

yay team

we there you go 20,000 visits to my blog. And the Grand winner is Luke Walker, have no idea who he is but well played!

For your hard work i’ll post you something out of my room.

milestone

just a a few hundred visotors away from reaching 20,000 visitors to this site.

So to celebrate the fact that no one seems to have a life these days and you all waste your time in front of computers. I am going to give stuff away like there is no tomorrow.

Also if you visit and find that you are the 20,000 visitor make sure you leave a coment and i’ll send you some usless article that i own and no longer need or a birthday present that i didnt like. something like that.

I wonder how much it costs to post a broken video player

Yesterday was the biggest day in the history of my blog in terms of visitors.

It was the first time it has topped 100 ending the day on 116.

the thing is no one seems to leave comments, so many visitors but no love

crazy people what the hell are you doing.

go outside or something!
