The internet was unusually bad last night, so just a few updates today.

Colorized Photo of Dodgers in a Jeep
Stever shared this eBay ad. It is a colorized reproduction photo of some famous Brooklyn Dodgers in a jeep. Not worth a whole lot, but interesting just the same.

A Little Behind Schedule
What a day yesterday! I woke up to learn that my deilers.com site (which also hosts the Alaska Or Rust site) had been hacked. If you viewed the site on a phone, you’d get a nice photo of an undressed young lady. As you can imagine, that’s a problem.
After some research, I learned that some from Turkey (probably that was spoofed IP) has uploaded zipped files, added some .htaccess files, and changed some the website files. While attempting to douse that fire (which I’ve fixed about 25% of the way), I was also packing for a short trip to Seattle. My father has surgery on his leg to improve its circulation.
Meanwhile, my mom is still on her walker from her knee surgery, due to newly pulled groin and other issues. To see the following each other, both pushing walkers, is a bit humbling!
So, I’m a little behind today. Sunday I *should* be back to normal.
