You dark calm savage.
I eye you from across the way.
You sit there patiently.
Your ripples of magic tickle my senses.

man i want a Guinness. here are some cool images you might enjoy.
now i don’t know who the Asian lady is, but she looked mighty happy enjoying that Guinness. I think tomorrow i will go and have one. Either that or a Boddingtons. that too is a nice drink.
and i have a memorial, and i am a woman. I found this. my Legal Name is wonhee lee, and I thought it was funny. WonHee Lee, Rest in Peace. you were a good woman. you bore many large healthy children. they loved you. and you lived a long and wholesome life. You will be missed.
So the regular column count in wordpress’ is 3, and in order to change this number, there isn’t any place in the settings to change it. so basically in order to change this, you will have to have a minor bit of programming knowledge, a good text editor. and some gumption.
first thing you do is open up your FTP client or telnet client putty.exe and go into your blog directory. If in case of FTP, grab this file.
/yourblogdir/wp-includes/media.php
open up the file. using your text editor, (I prefer editplus if i didnt have shell access to the server, and nano on the shell. No real Programmers use nano –see awesome xkcd.com panel on the bottom )and do a search for this string,
function gallery_shortcode($attr)
this should be line 400 if you are using putty.exe, look for this bit of code below, and change the “columns” from 3 to 4. and save.
now also remember you have to take in consideration what your width of your post frame is.

extract(shortcode_atts(array(
'order' => 'ASC',
'orderby' => 'menu_order ID',
'id' => $post->ID,
'itemtag' => 'dl',
'icontag' => 'dt',
'captiontag' => 'dd',
'columns' => 4,
'size' => 'thumbnail',
), $attr));
All set. Have fun Blogging.

yea! Flowerpoop now has polls. Vote for your Favorite Iron Chef.
Loading ...I was watching Iron Chef Japan on Fine Living Network, and I was thinking, Which chef was the best. to me. Iron Chef Japan, is the quintessential cooking show in Japan. Where the Kongs of the cooking worlds come together and battle it out over a specific ingredient. Apart from its American Cousin, the chefs have to complete all courses w/in the 1 hour time period. They have to plate for all Judges, not just one plate, all plates for all judges. Pretty damn amazing. I used to watch these show in its hey day 15 years ago (1993-1999, and 2001 special ) when it was live on television, in the original Japanese. That was Way Awesome. The show now on Fine Living Network is Dubbed in English, and it is quite annoying. They should have saved some money, and went with sub-titles. It makes for better television, because now the TV home Audience has to read.
The American Version of the show is quite Lame. The Chairman is said to be the Nephew of the original Chairman in Japan, but I really don’t think that Mark Dacascos is related to Chairman Takeshi Kaga in any way. The guy played Crying Freeman for geez sake. (not that crying freeman is bad, I am actually a big fan the Whole Crying Freeman Series). I can say the over zealous Alton Brown as the Announcer is quite funny at times though. but their ways of doing things is not all great at times. noting like the original.
