Listening to:
    * Devo - Girl U Want
    * The Dead Milkmen - Punk Rock Girl
    * Primus - Jerry was a Race Car
      Driver
    * Generation X - One Hundred Punks
    * The Pixies - Here Comes Your Man

I don't pretend that  I don't care what
people think  about me. Well,  at least
not here. Otherwise,  fake it, till you
make it, right?

Hardships  and  rejection leave  traces
that -  without the  appropriate mental
hygiene  -  can   plague  you  forever.

But what to do with those ten years old
gigabytes  of  logs?  I  wouldn't  mind
uncompressing  and   examining.  Unless
there's a really good reason to keep it
in  the dusty  and musty  archive laced
with cobwebs, burn it all down.

You  will   probably  forget  something
important  but   it  seems   easier  to
figure  that out  somehow than  dealing
with  the  old  crap.  Start  fresh.  A
minimal  .vimrc,  comfortable  but  not
overwhelming.  At least  that's what  I
want  to  do.  And start  rotating  the
logs!

So, I was  really interested if anybody
reads this  at all. I still  don't know
but  at  least  I  can  see  that  this
little phlog is accessed (probably by a
crawler of some kind).

With a  little entry in  your gophermap
you  can execute  the date  command and
log the output to a file. Like so:
=date >> /path/to/your/logfile

I  have  a  bash script  to  manage  my
log  files,  you   can  find  it  under
programming.  Also  you   can  see  the
latest  output in  "Public access  log"
under my  About section. It  is updated
when I log in.

If you're a human reading this, drop me
a line!
