I’ve made some minor adjustments to the apocryph.org Drupal theme. The original apocryph theme was based on a ripoff of the built-in Drupal 4.x theme, and was showing its age. It wasn’t compatible with some nice Drupal 5.x features like autocompleting tag names, and auto-collapsing form field groups. Mostly the enhancements are to the posting side of things and thus benefit me exclusively, but while I had the hood up I tweaked a few colors to make the site look a bit less like a Spartan military barracks.

At least one reader of apocryph.org, whom I shall refer to only as Rebecca Susan Morse, my current housemate and longtime friend, did not realize that the list of posts which appear in list form on the apocryph.org main page are in fact only ‘teasers’; a much more substantive full post can be read by clicking the article title or the ‘read more’ link at the bottom.

So, if you didn’t realize this either, you’ve been missing out on a ton of content, mostly about Iraq but also about my tech misadventures. So, for God’s sake, click ‘read more’ or the post title if it seems something you’d want to read.

I'm playing around a bit with "Technorati":http://www.technorati.com/, and to that end I decided to 'claim' apocryph.org. To do so, you must prove you control the site you are claiming by posting a snippet of code as instructed. I hard-coded the snippet into my custom Drupal theme; A block might be more effective, but I'm just playing now and want something expedient. In any case, I settled on the following PHP code in @page.tpl.php@:
