Bot Attack!

Sorry my website’s been up and down and up and down and up and down for the past day, you guys! I’ve been told by my web guy there’s been a “bot attack” on my server’s company. What’s a bot attack??!! Welcome to the 21st Century! Anyway, if the bots stop attacking I promise to get my Mimulus and Bad Boys reviews out today! I know Jennifer Dunning at NYTimes beat me to Mimulus… Grrrrr……

Jacob's Pillow Pictures Are Up!

I’ve finally posted my pictures from the dance festival this week in my photo album here. Just double-click on each picture for a larger photo and the caption. I tried to get as many pictures as I could of Rasta Thomas and his “Bad Boys of Dance” performing at the free outdoor show prior to their actual in-theater debut. I was also blown away by Zimbabwean dance-maker Nora Chipaumire of “Urban Bush Women” performing a solo called “Dark Swan” so I have several of her, as well as Argentinian choreographer Jimena Paz performing on that same outdoor stage immediately after Chipaumire. I will blog about all the dance performances I saw very shortly!

I also included our goofy adventures (barely) surviving a modern dance class at the Pillow and side-trips to the Norman Rockwell museum and a Shaker Village. Enjoy 🙂

Flickr Problems

I seem to be having problems posting directly from my cell phone to my blog via Flickr. I checked the settings and they’re all correct. Are any other bloggers who post via mobile phones having this problem? Anyway, the last three entries I had to post manually through Flickr. They were originally uploaded yesterday afternoon, so the “yesterdays” referred to mean Thursday! Also, since I had to upload multiple times through Flickr, I apologize in advance if the last three entries re-post!

I got back home from Jacob’s Pillow yesterday afternoon. I had an amazing time and promise to blog about it and post lots of pics in the photo album today and tomorrow!
