A note from Stan
We apologize for our absence the last couple of days. Due to excessive outsourcing, the cabling that serves our neighborhood is a patchwork of restrung lines. We have, in the three years we’ve had the service, had no less than five lines run to our house. All are still in place even [...]

Are you having trouble with this site?

June 4th, 2008 · 2 Comments

A note from Stan
Has anyone had a problem contacting or finding or using this site? Please let me know if you have had a problem. The lease (which I had thought was two years in length) is nearly up, and if I would need to make a change in server space, we are approaching a [...]

We’re back

May 2nd, 2008 · 11 Comments

Technical difficulties last Sunday put NunnaYerBizness Today out of business for a period. A database became what appeared to be irretrievably corrupted and made logging on impossible (as readers may have noticed). A database is the logical machine on which a Web site floats.

If you need a chuckle, see the Merovingian

April 2nd, 2008 · 1 Comment

Locally famous blogger (and who knows? it may be international fame) The Merovingian has put up some very funny psuedo-news posts. Do yourself a favor and go have a laugh and then a thought or two about how things are going around here.

My Apologies,

March 30th, 2008 · No Comments

loyal readers, for not posting for a day or two. Business in the falling days of the conference extended itself into the nighttime hours. Yes, it was schmoozing over dinner that turned into three and four hour conversations, but sometimes that’s the best way to find those ideas and compromises (I was just talking about) [...]

Gone again

March 24th, 2008 · 2 Comments

For reasons that nearly escape me (except that I’m the retired guy), I’ve been selected to represent our local Planned Parenthood affiliate at the national convention, so I’ll be gone from Tuesday to Sunday this week. I’m taking my little laptop with me, but my experience is that these folks keep one busy, so [...]

Google analytics sucks

March 21st, 2008 · 8 Comments

This conclusion comes on the realization that I am actually talking to myself here. During the last week, there was one unique visitor to NunnaYerBizness.com. Me. So much for my war on solipsism. Of course, in a war on solipsism, no matter how it comes out, I win. It’s either the joy of being the [...]

New Look

February 12th, 2008 · 2 Comments

We hope you aren’t too shocked at the new look today. It’s cleaner, we think, and we’re developing a pleasant look. The first job of art and design, to let you know where we stand on a very old question, is to decorate pleasingly. For those who believe that the first duty of art is [...]

Check the other Nunnayerbiznezz

February 10th, 2008 · No Comments

And note the difference in spelling, too. Well, the Nunnayerbizness family came to America through the Appalachian, coming from an illiterate peasantry in the old country.

A Day on Brownsville’s Web logs and at a City Council Meeting

February 7th, 2008 · 2 Comments

A good deal of today was spent looking around Brownsville’s highly assorted crew of web loggers* with some good results. On the Art of Brownsville, Gabriel Treviño has set up a weekly display for collaborative art. I sent him the cover art for a chapbook I made a couple of years ago and told him [...]
