  1. Here is the first WordPress plugin I ever wrote:

    So-and-so Said…

    Description:

    Want to add a little personality to your blog? Want your site to “talk back” a little to your users? Try “So-and-so Said…” — the hottest new plugin on the Internet. Not really. But, it is pretty cool, I think. ;-) Instead of the boring “Billy said,” or “Johnny says,” this plugin will make your blog say interesting things like “Susie pondered,” or “Gertrude exclaimed,” depending on whether the comment contains exclamation marks or question marks. If you have any grand ideas of how to make this more interesting, let me know.

    Installation instructions:

    1. Unzip So-and-so Said… (right-click -> Extract All)
    2. Upload the “soandsosaid” directory to “/wp-content/plugins/” on your website.
    3. Click ‘Plugins’ on the main Dashboard.
    4. Click ‘Activate’ next to “So-and-so said…”
    5. Enjoy!

  2. Sweet! I didn’t know you had this. When did you put this up?

    Hey, the world always needs more entropy. I will supply some.

  3. I am trying to figure out the fate of a really cool website. Maybe one of you could help me? It was made by two crazy homeschooled brothers and it had games, art, Bible insights and many more entertaining things. ;)

  4. Umm… I think I know what site you’re talking about ;-) Apparently, there were some pretty bad security holes in that site, and it needed to be shut down so that hackers couldn’t abuse its awesomeness.

    Plus, the developers no longer had too much time on their hands. :-( Maybe they will again some time in the future…

  5. Greetings, Josiah. This is the defender of the Infinite and Infinitesimal, etc. etc. Captain Calculus! Would you like to become my sidekick Partial Derivative? Together, we could fight for Truth, Equality, and the Mathematical Way!

  6. Not really. ;-) I need to figure out a way to put the most recent chat posts at the top. I hate scrolling all the way down here.

  7. I am very busy. But, that doesn’t mean I don’t have extra time. I probably waste a good 4 hours per day doing absolutely nothing (fun or productive). Don’t know why…

    Perhaps that’s not what you meant by “how are things going?” Schoolwise, I have a few tests, papers and speeches coming up within the next week or so. Homewise, my room is seriously in need of cleaning. Otherwise, I’m not having a really bad week. How about you?

  8. Ummm…. ’cause it’s not been bad.
    IDK, overall I’ve been doing better with diligence and stuff which makes my whole day run smoother (and my mom happier) and I get more free time.

  9. Who are you? You talk weird. What the heck is diligence? Don’t you guys ever just hang out and have some fun?

  10. Uh… Casey… before entering this blog, please check your baditude at the door. Plus, don’t insult my friends.

  11. B: That’s great. I have been working on diligence as well — but I’m not doing much better as of yet. ;-)

    C: Ah, but who are you? If you know me, thanks so much for commenting (but please do take Jed’s advice)! If I don’t, do you really think that surfing the Internet, commenting on random people’s blogs is more productive than building good character qualities?

  12. How does everyone like the new paged comments plugin I installed? It wasn’t compatible with my so-and-so-said plugin — so, I just un-installed that one, and tweaked the paged-comments to include both functionalities. I love how web design involves so much shameless copying and modifying of other people’s code.

  13. I think saying things like:
    “Battitude? Freaky. Are you guys form the 90′s or something? I’m just wondering why you are bored out of your mind and insanely busy a the same time.
    Character qualities? I’m leaving for Africa with my folks in a few weeks to work with some Darfuian refugees who’ve have the ethnicity cleansed out of them, maybe that will help with my character some.
    Sorry, you guys just seems a little self indulgent.”

    Is actually a cool thing to do. Because, I am a hothead.

  14. Casey, casey, casey… You do realize that we can edit your comments if we think it hilarious to do so. ;-)

  15. Oh, I’m only kidding about the hothead thing. Your questions are good ones. Here are some answers:
    1.) Battitude is for bats. Baditude is for hotheads. ;-)
    2.) I was born in the ’80s, not the ’90s. And no, I don’t like Bon Jovi.
    3.) I am bored and busy because of time-consuming yet uninteresting school work. (Specifically, a 10-page cultural research-project. I’ll be glad when all I have to do is infinite sums and double integrals.)
    4.) Helping refugees sounds like a good character-building activity.
    5.) I suppose I am rather self-indulgent. But, this is my Josiahland, after all! :-)

    I really do enjoy your comments, btw. Seriously.

  16. And here I am without a visa…or even a passport for that matter. Guess I better scamper back up the rabbit hole.

    Bon Who?

  17. Please don’t emigrate! As grand high king of Josiahland, I hereby grant Casey MiddleName LastName the right to dwell upon this noble digital soil.

    Bon Jovi is a singer from the ’80s — who I am not a fan of.

  18. Josiah. Josiah. josiah. Aren’t you the cute one. But Molecular Biology beckons in that sweet, sweet way it has.

    Reign with compassion.

    Casey

  19. Heh heh. Don’t you just love the way Casey comes in here making fun of how we talk and calling us names, and then goes on to tell us that we need to exercise compassion?!!

    It’s always comical (but yet a little sad) when people add a big ‘ol dose of hypocrisy in with their ignorance and immaturity.

  20. I’m still trying to figure out who exactly this is — and how they found my blog. There is a Casey Dix who was in my Calculus II and Chemistry classes (going by the online classlist). He is friends with Tim Colton from my Rhetoric class, and enjoys playing video games. His Facebook posts are of a similar writing style — but I can’t quite tell for certain.

    I really am showing how little of a life I have here, aren’t I? :-)

  21. Wait a second… This could be an elaborate joke in reference to “Casey” from 12th-grade speech class. Does anyone remember him? :-)

  22. Or, this could all be an elaborate joke by you, Josiah. We all just take it for granted that Bethany wrote it when it’s signed Bethany. I’ve heard rumors of at least one other person commenting as two separate individuals. I fear that many things are not as they seem in Josiahland…

  23. I promise it’s not me. My jokes are typically rather simplistic and short-lived. He’s probably really just some random person with nothing better to do — the IP address he accessed the site with came from Sacramento, California.

  24. My job is so top secret that I can’t even tell you that it’s classified. :-) Just kidding… Although, they actually did let me into the secret lab (so sci-fi, I know, but that’s really what they call it) the other day. Right now, I’m working on some testing programs for a radio system.

    I could go on and on about the details, but in general, I feel a little lost but I like the job. How’s your summer going?

  25. So, I noticed your last posted Bible reading was a week ago. Anything new?
