My dad has a domain, (http://www.cmmeinzer.com) but uses it almost totally for emails.  I have tried to show him the evils of Wordpress and blogging, but to no avail.

That said, and in the spirit of my constant giving him a hard time, I have highjacked his webpage!  Since it is on my server, I thought, “What the heck, not like he will ever do anything with it.”  So, it is now mine! (Insert evil laugh here).  Maybe he will see what you can do with a spiffy domain, but maybe not.  Either way, it is better than a dumn “Coming Soon” site that will never change.

If you didn’t notice, the website has a new look. We are still working on getting all the features online like the new gallery, but you get the point.

I have had several emails lately asking what CMS/Portal system we are using on this website. To answer that question it is PHPX . It is a system I started about 8 years ago and have been working ever since, with a few rather sizable breaks in there. It powers the entire website including the blog, gallery, wine list, etc… There is nothing on this website that PHPX doesnt generate. Hope that clears up the confusion, and answers the questions. PHPX is free to all for download and installation, so if you have a website that you want to have a lot of functionality on but do not want to actually have to spend much time managing it, feel free to give PHPX a try!

Ok, I have broken down and added a new news category: “300 Million Morons”! For those of you that know me well, you will know exactly to what I am referring, the rest of you will just have to figure it out. So in the coming months, enjoy more of my rants!

I have gone ahead, and I do not know why, and enabled comments on the website. You can add comments to the blog posts, and also register to get a username. If you are one of those spiffy people, and think you should get access to something, register and drop us an email. Otherwise, register, or not, but post away on the stories.

AH HA!

Ok it is offical, we suck at this. We never update this site, mainly because we are just too busy. I am back in school going for my BS, and Jessica is really wrapped up at work, which she loves.

Other than just the status quo, there is nothing going on. PHPX is a little more active these days, not really sure why, I have been slow releasing versions, but it seems to be picking up over there…

Obviously we haven’t updated this site much. Our lives are way too busy to maintain this thing. I’m going to talk to Ryan about making this the ever so popular blog. I now see why blogs are the new fad.

This site will be updated shortly. I need to add some more images for the blog, and I think my mother-in-law is working on a new design. Have to ask Jess about that.

Well, while the site is still under construction and I suppose it always will be, it\’s coming along and I\’m not too ashamed to have ppl take a look. Hopefully we\’ll have a few flash things up and running in the next couple of weeks. That however is up to Ryan and his busy schedual.
