Site Maintenance Issues

If you get a “page not found” message when you try to view an individual post and you have signed up previously, this probably means that you aren’t logged in when you try to access the site. If you need any of your log in information, let me know.

We have been attempting to make changes to improve registration/password maintenance and recovery. However, instead we have broken the site. Oops. Also, we switched privacy protection, so the front page ends up looking quite different. Also, the contact form seems not to be working. I think all of these issues may be related, but I haven’t ferreted out the root cause.

If there is anybody out there who knows WordPress well and would like to help, please let me know (tamiko@colinlovestractors.com).

Here are some pictures of Colin to distract you from our utter failure at webmastery. :)

Colin’s second week of radiation was grueling: vomiting, utter fatigue, dangerous aspiration and an unexpected stay in the hospital.

Ode to Lady Liberty

“Give me your tired, your poor, Your huddled [brain tissue] yearning to breathe free, The wretched refuse of your teeming shore. Send these, the homeless, tempest-tossed to me, I lift my [high-energy photon] lamp beside the golden door!”

Predator vs. Alien

Since finding out about Colin’s blood clot, we have settled into a normal non-medically intense lifestyle punctuated by the possibility of crisis.
