Merry Christmas a week late…

A couple of weeks ago the east coast got slammed with a rather large snow storm.  I think we got 20 inches in my state.  Wow, i think in my life that is the most snow I have ever seen all at once.

So that weekend we had tickets to go see a Christmas show. The show was cancelled and postoned to Jan 2nd, 2010. So, my family, my girlfriend and I went and saw the show. Damn, it was great!  I felt like it was Christmas all over again. Christmas is one of my favorite holidays.  We saw White Christmas at a dinner theatre. An excellent show. The singing was great, the performers were top notch. In case you don’t know how dinner theatre works, it goes something like this.  All of the actors/acrtress are also your waiters / waitresses.  So, you first sit down and get to eat a nice salad if you so choose. Your waiter comes around and serves the drinks. The food is served buffet style. Your waiter, also being an entertainer, is very lively and extra friendly. It makes for a great atmosphere and something you pretty much can’t get anywhere.  The food part lasts about 2 hours and then the lights go down and the show begins.  The show was fantastic. I’d give it a 5 out 5 stars. The first part of the show was about 1.5hrs long and there was a brief intermission. During the intermission, the actors / waiters come around and serve drinks again. Can you imagine doing that? These guys don’t get a break for 4 hours they are really bustin ass. Running to get drinks, doing a show and then running to get more drinks. These people work extra hard.

The evening started around 6pm and we made it home by 11pm. It was a great night and it was extra awesome to share it with the wonderful people I was fortunate enough to go with.

Is it wrong to have a site about Coldfusion written in PHP?

A most perplexing question for a web developer…

I’m just curious what you all think. Originally my website was written in PHP. In order to learn Coldfusion, I reprogrammed my website in Coldfusion. Alas, I have become close to an expert with Expression Engine CMS (it is awesome…check it out http://www.expressionengine.com/)  I am using the EE Core v1.6.8 which is the free version of Expression Engine (aka EE).  It is free as long as its for non-commercial use.  So, is it wrong to change my Coldfusion website from Coldfusion to PHP? Leave your comments.

I’ve used the full version of EE before and well it is amazing - the best and most flexible CMS out there. Alot of people I work with like to compare EE to Wordpress, but really it is wrong to compare the two, they really belong in different categories.  Wordpress is a very powerful free blogging platform, its open source, its written in PHP and connects to a MySQL database.

EE is an extremely powerful and very affordable full featured content management system, its open source, it is written in PHP, and it connects to a mySQL database.  EE has a very robust blogging platform in it as well. But thats where the similarity ends.  The next post will go on to explain why EE is so great.  IF you have not tried it yet, get off your ass and try it!
