Out!

I'm taking a short trip with the family; unless something comes up that I just can't resist blogging, I'll be taking a short break from the action, and will get back to it on Friday.

No Comments

It looks like the comment function is down.

I'm not sure yet what the problem is, although I assume it's related to some work being done on this site's platform. The final goal is to cut down on the comment spam without inconveniencing the readers who want to joint in on the conversation.

Thanks for your patience.


UPDATE:


Okay, it seems to be working. You'll notice the extra steps involved in signing in with TypeKey, but I hope it's a one-time thing.

I apologize for the inconvenience, and I hope you understand I only made the changes to block the damned spambots that bombard every blog they can find.

If I believed in an afterlife, I'd hope for a special circle of hell just for people who make money by creating all these problems for the rest of us.


SECOND UPDATE:


This is the first morning in I don't know how long that I've started the day with no spam to clean up. The trade-off is that it's now easier to buy an assault weapon than it is to register to post comments at MPF.

Thanks very much for your patience with the extra hassle.

Back in Action

I'm back from Las Vegas, where I attended the National Strength and Conditioning Association annual conference.

I didn't take a complete break from the news, but I didn't spend a lot of time reading newspapers or watching TV news, either.

So other than that hurricane thingie, what did I miss?

Wednesday test

This is a test of the emergency blogging system. Had this been an actual blog post, you would've been given interesting information with the author's signature humor. This is only a test.

Four Days in May

My niece is getting married in Columbus, Ohio, this weekend, so I'm off for those parts. I'll return to blogging Monday or Tuesday.

Have a great holiday!

Back in the Saddle

My server has been down for a couple days, which is why I haven't posted anything new since Monday morning.

It's back up now, but I have a bunch of piled-up business to take care of before I can post again.

Thanks to all who've kept checking in.

MPF, Now With RSS!

So many people told me to get an RSS feed that I finally did.

I still have very little idea of what, exactly, an RSS feed is, or what it does, but now I have one.

Up and Running

After a few more fits and starts, it looks like the training wheels have come off the weblog, so please check this space regularly for updates.

If you have a question or comment, please use lou@louschuler.com for now. I'd thought I was getting email for asklou@louschuler.com, but now realize I haven't been. I'll figure that one out soon.

Other features--particularly "Read Lou Schuler's Email"--will have to wait a couple more weeks, but I think you'll enjoy them when they're functional. I'll probably update RLSE multiple times a day with health, fitness, and nutrition advice.

Also, I'm hanging around on the message board at JP Fitness, if you want to ask a question or join in a discussion of something exercise-related.

The Big Test

Please bear with me as I figure out how to operate this software. The fancy design will be back up soon.

Once I think I know what I'm doing, I'm going to try to get something new up nearly every day.
