Describing my immediate surroundings towards the beginning and a twist to the tale or possible solutions to issues towards the end of some blogs and how they relate to my expectations of the world at large.
I just read `More ways to share` (by Lenny). I watched the video without the audio because I’m at work. It has the following servces available:
The four highlighted in bold are already `enabled` by default. The other four services are available.
Go to Dashboard >> Settings >> Sharing
The `Sharing` link is between the `Open ID` above and `Domains` below.
I love writing. But I cannot write professionally. To keep from going insane and bored and to keep out of trouble and worry. I have the following sites to keep me preoccupied while TPTB continues to screw me from behind:
Other online accounts are personal, like emails and finances, which is below zero, by the way. It’s my fault really for being stupid and gullible.
I do NOT sign up as multiple users in any one account, except WordPress.com. There are others but I didn’t post anything. And even if I did, I removed those from public viewing and are pretty much empty.
What do I talk about? I could talk about everything and reveal a lot. But because the TOS protects us from the bad guys and vice versa, we could only say little online.
Tonight, I learned what the `Theme Locations` (via the `https://[user name here].wordpress.com/wp-admin/nav-menus.php` page) does.
For example, the Twenty Ten theme by the WordPress team has the following:
Theme Locations
Your theme supports 1 menu. Select which menu you would like to use.
Primary Navigation
Another example is the Vostok by Javier Cañada and Rubén Lozano (CSS and images) and the WordPress team (PHP, HTML): It has the following:
Theme Locations
Your theme supports 2 menus. Select which menu appears in each location.
Primary Navigation
Footer Navigation
Using `Primary Navigation` replaces the theme’s top navigation bar; while using the `Footer Navigation` replaces the theme’s footer bar.
It’s that simple.
Note, however, my current Dusk theme by Beccary shows that:
The current theme does not natively support menus, but you can use the “Custom Menu” widget to add any menus you create here to the theme’s sidebar.
This means I only have the sidebar menu to work with and no top/primary navigation bar or footer to make use of my custom menus.
Nah! I’m not feeling the blog title. It was really a test run. I really want a domain name and the PHP stuff to make a hosted website work. Nah! I’m never going to be satisfied. I must continue to meditate and think. Maybe something catchy will inspire me. I’m not getting any blogging material from my small mind. I guess it’s time to retire making noise online and move on to better goals.
After reading `http://en.support.wordpress.com/webhooks/`, I still don’t understand what this means other than that if I have multiple weblogs, I could push one post onto several at one time.
So here goes. Wish me luck!
Note to self: This is the second attempt.

Haha! I’ve gotten tired of `Flynn’s Blogs`. That nickname Flynn is too common and floating around as a guy.
So, thanks to `DADDJ`, which really looks like Dad as a DJ, and her recent comments on my WordPress.com website, I’ve gotten an inspiration.
But I had to lurk online via `Dictionary.com` and found my answers there. First, my mind picked up the world `bloodlust`. I looked up the word `lust` (the word definition which I didn’t like) and then the word `addiction` since I am addicted to blogging.
Then I clicked on the `Synonyms` tab for additional information on `addiction` and came across the word `bent` because `blog` is spelled with four letters, too.
Then I saw the word `angle off` and clicked on the nearby words. But those words were mostly about aircraft and the angle of target. I like the imagery of `angels`, which I saw in that word.
Then my mind started creating again. By rearranging the letters from `angle off`, my mind saw `angel off`. And the only phrase that came to mind after the word `off` was `off the beaten path`, which has something to do with telecommunications. I looked up that phrase and I was getting close.
Instead, I’ve substituted the word `beaten` with blogging, which is also a two syllable word. So tonight, Flynn’s Blogs will have taken a new site title:
For $14.97, I’ve purchased an upgrade: It’s a Custom CSS subscription good for one year! I couldn’t help myself! I had to buy one and did so a few minutes ago!
I needed a different look to my WordPress.com weblog theme, which is Dusk by Beccary. It’s the hardcoding of this theme particular theme that worked well for me – from the bullet details to the way the comments are stacked.
The work around for the lack of a `Links template` is made possible by placing a Blogroll `Links widget` on the right sidebar, which is the default location of the original theme design.
For whatever reason, I couldn’t modify my old CSS. The fonts won’t change and maybe because the payment didn’t clear in 24 hours.
There’s nothing to blog about. My mind is blank. Maybe I should answer more Plinky.com prompts. But I’m too lazy. I really want my money back. It’s my right. Then, I’ll be happy again. I still hate working but love eating. I have so many other blessings to thank – good weather, trees to shade while walking during lunch and breaks and co-workers who are `normal`.
