And I got it. Sweet. What was the wine? Glad to see it was a Red, my wife is a Riesling and anything sweet type of drinker but I’m a Pinot Noir guy myself.

Oh and on a complete different note…Al was a close game last night but my boys ended up with the win. Forgot to talk smack last night after seeing the OSU sweatshirt.

I was just glad to see my Boilers were still in the running for the Big Ten season title and was worried after the last time we played. Thought we were going to repeat our second half failure.

Big Ten’s having a great year overall though right now and can’t wait to see us all represent in the tourney. The only way it could be better was if IU was in last. :)

What’s going on in Vegas, also you mentioned a San Fran trip too?

For me, the best time to be in Vegas is anytime. I love that place.

You don’t want to know how many animals had to be sacrificed to the computer gods to get this video up.

Hum, video didn’t work. Any ideas on what I got to do for that from the Mountain Leverage peeps?

Is it Youtube only on the comments?

Yeah that originally, had the embed stuff and it all got stripped out after I submitted. Will try Youtube and see maybe it knows not to strip that specific one.

Wassup Kevin, WordPress is awesome. Not sure which plugin is being run on this blog but you have a couple options.

http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/subscribe-to-comments/

http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/comment-reply-notification/

I think it might be the first but I’ve never used either of those myself. I’ve actually started using

http://intensedebate.com/

because it has a ton of features, but at the same time it can get confusing to people coming to the comment because of that. Another similar option to that is

http://disqus.com/

Enjoy

We need your help.
We do not receive e-mail notifications when you comment. How do we do this? HELP!

Okay, 2 things need to happen.

First, make sure this box is checked (made picture just to see if I could embed it here)

In the Admin go to Settings->Discussion and you will see 2 checkboxes next to “E-mail me whenever.” Those 2 should be checked.

Next, on the account that you are using to post the articles make sure that the email address is set to whatever you want to receive those emails at. This could be one of your email addresses or an address that’s setup to forward to both of your addresses.

IF you already have both those done, you might want to check your SPAM folder to see if they are going there. My WP blog comment emails all started out going there and I was missing them myself.

If all that fails, well, I’m out of guesses. :) I would have to look at the exact setup more closely after that.
