As you all know, I like to travel – especially road trips. That’s why when my girlfriend, Laura, and I discovered the Northern Lights Rally (
http://www.northernlightsrally.com) we knew we had to get involved.
What’s the Northern Lights Rally? First of all, its not technically a rally (there are no time trials and no winner). Its more of a challenge. A challenge to drive a cheap, run down car from Glasgow to Tallinn, Estonia. When we get there the car will be auctioned (or scrapped, I’m still finding that out) to raise money for the Estonian charity, the Sunflower Foundation.

I ran into this problem the other day and thought I would post the solution I used.
The problem
You’ve built a site in Joomla and you are using the Virtuemart E-Commerce component. Everything is working fine. Then you turn on the Sh404sef component so you get search engine friendly (SEF) urls. As you navigate through your online shop all the urls look fine…until you try to use a Virtuemart ajax function.

The final product
Back in 2007, a Kiwi mate of mine told me about Movember, “the annual, month-long celebration of the mustache, highlighting men’s health issues, specifically prostate cancer,” so I thought I’d give it a try. Read the rest of this entry »

I read this, my eyes crossed, and I blacked out.
As you may know, I constantly take pictures of signs I think are funny (see Fun Signs in Middle America). Below is a reprint of a post that originally appeared on my old blog. I put it together from photos taken over my two year stay in South Korea. I’ve categorized them as best as I could. Enjoy.

Hello, Bunny.
Over the last few months I’ve noticed bits of graffiti popping up in my neighborhood with a common theme. They all depict a simple line drawing of a rabbit and are usually accompanied by the word “konijntje” – cute, I know.
The photos above represent a small percentage of the works I see on my daily commute through the West End & central Glasgow. I wanted to share see them as a public service. Not to promote the arts or any such nonsense, but as a way to slowly learn Dutch. After all, “konijntje” is just Dutch for “bunny”.

Assah.org - a collection of awesome vibes
One of my fun side projects recently has been the creation of Assah.org. As you can see from the definition on the homepage “assah”, or “아싸” in Korean hangul is just a word/noise that someone shouts when something awesome happens.
Assah.org serves as a collection point for good karma – one long page full of awesomeness.
