All I can assume is that Mercury is in retrograde and I&#8217;ll just have to wait it out.<br \/>\nIn the meantime, I&#8217;m enjoying listening to Trance music and sipping a <a href=\"http:\/\/www.downtownaugusta.com\/metro\/metro2.htm\">large mocha at the Metro<\/a>. I&#8217;ve only been begging these guys to get WiFi for about three years.<br \/>\nWhile I&#8217;m waiting I&#8217;m looking at <a href=\"http:\/\/drupal.org\/\">Drupal<\/a>   again. They have an ecommerce module. I like the idea of a CMS, they&#8217;re usually not good at presenting a finished-looking site. I want a CMS that lets me make pages for visitors, not a portal to more CMS looking crap. I don&#8217;t know if that makes sense. To put it another way, CMS&#8217;s offer all of these widgets that go all over the place, and usually fairly inelegantly. This is why I like MT. I deal with an administrative area, publish it and the user sees a clean presentation. I&#8217;m sure what it boils down to is that I&#8217;m going to have to learn how to write these things; including shopping carts. I might install Drupal for fun and play with it. I&#8217;ll have to get back on that.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>So, the iTunes store can&#8217;t accept credit cards; or at least it hasn&#8217;t been able to for the past several hours.
