Apache doesn’t like applescript

Bloged in Networked Expressions by jennylc Monday November 28, 2005

I got this email from Cory (my applescript/perl guru friend) today:

“Hey Jenny,

I’m starting to be afraid I led you down a rabbit hole with the
perl->applescript stuff.

I found this, which you might want to check out:

Turns out my plan to have an applescript launched from my perl backend won’t work because of the way apache is set up.

perl and the popularity dialer II

Bloged in Networked Expressions by jennylc Sunday November 27, 2005

After surveying everyone on the floor about viewing perl/cgi files locally and coming up empty handed, I found some other documentation showing that the cgi files can be in a completely different folder than the one I was trying to work with. Not sure what was up with all those other docs.

perl and the popularity dialer

Bloged in Networked Expressions by jennylc Sunday November 27, 2005

Last week, I realized that it would probably be best to write the backend of my website in perl since I’ve already got a perl script talking to applescript. i’ve run into problems running my first perl script locally on my machine though. It works fine on my itp website so I know it’s not the code. Unfortunatly, much of the documentation on how to do this is written for OS 9. I had Josh Klein help me out for a bit. He found some leads, but i’m still not sure what’s wrong.

I’ve posted to the list and asked Cory for his advice. Hopefully, I can resolve this administration problem soon. In the meantime, I will try to work from the web.

Are you one of the 1 in 10 adults suffering from “Restless Leg Syndrome”?

Bloged in A goofy life indead by jennylc Tuesday November 8, 2005

GlaxoSmithKline has invented yet another disease that I think I might have. IF you haven’t seen the ads for their new drug REQUIP, here are symptoms you should look for:

“Do you dread long business meetings, going to the movies, or traveling on an airplane because you know your restless legs won’t let you sit still? You just know you’ll have to get up to relieve the discomfort in your restless legs — disturbing your work colleagues, other moviegoers, and fellow passengers.”

What are the side effects of this drug? Glad you asked.

Just your average mime taking his yorkie out for a walk on a beautiful autumn day in New York.

A Peaceful New World – WIll it Come?

I found this on the floor of my building when I was coming home yesterday. Apparently, the illustrator of this Jehovah’s witness pamphlet believes that paradise should be depicted as a hispanic family playing in a meadow with wild animals.

Star sighting – “Fitness Celebrity” John Basedow at Whole Foods

Bloged in A goofy life indead by jennylc Sunday November 6, 2005

A couple of hours ago, I was waiting on line at whole foods when I noticed a strange combination of food items in a nearby cart. There was a cauliflower head accompanied by a salad. But the salad was hardly a salad. It was composed of about 9 whole hard boiled eggs, huge chunks of fried tofu, some almond slivers and about three leaves of spinach (the salad qualifier).

I looked at the man pushing the cart, who had a Rick Springfield hairstyle and a bright pink shirt tucked into nipple-high pants, and excused his choice of food based on the assumption that he was in fact eastern european (I don’t know what the hell they eat over there but where else could this guy be from). But then I caught a glimpse of his face and knew that this man’s choice of food had nothing to do with his origins, but rather to do with the fact that he was eating for 6. 6-pack abs that is!

This man was “Fitness Celebrity” John Basedow. Yeah, you know, the guy who awkwardly poses so his abs jut out in the “Fitness Made Simple – best selling workout and nutrition videos” ads? Last year, these aired during almost every commerical break of Yankee baseball on the YES Channel.
