The newest version of Ubuntu comes out on Thursday! I am excited. I thought their countdown clocks looked really cool and wanted to add one to my site. Here it is:
I am also excited about the release of WordPress 3.0, which should come out within the next month. A new default theme, and a merge between the two major versions (regular and MU – both of which I use for different things) are on on the slate. These are significant.
Apart from that, school is winding to a close and the weather is warming up.
May is a great month!
I wanted to thank everyone who ordered a tomlany.net T-shirt! Everyone who ordered should have just received an E-mail confirmation from me. If you did not get an E-mail but ordered one, or still want a shirt; send me an E-mail before 9 p.m. tonight, as the order will be sent out tonight.
Thanks again to everyone who ordered!! I can’t wait to see the Tom Lany shirts around campus!
Are you a big soup person?
I think some people are turned off its bland and boring fresh out of a can taste. For better soups, you need to try Steve’s Souper Soups!

I just Googled my name, “Tom Lany”, just to see what our friends in California would send my way. I’ll admit, I do it from time to time.
The first page was all of the normal stuff: tomlany.net, Tom Lany commenting on people’s websites, etc.
When I got to the second page, though, I saw something interesting. My name was associated with “ACP – Contest Winners”. “Hmm, what’s that” I thought.
I clicked the link, and discovered that The Weekly (The Gustavus Adolphus College student newspaper where I work) was selected as a finalist in the Associated Collegiate Press Online Pacemaker competition. This is the big national award for online student publications. I was excited to see our site on the list. What a great (and exciting) way to start the day!
Sorry, folks… I know the jingles have been a bit far between the past couple of weeks. I have been busy working on some web projects and enjoying the warm Minnesota weather!
Speaking of warm weather, now that the snow is gone, do you need to fix up your yard with a fresh bed of sod? If so, you’ll want to check out Sherry’s Super Saver Sod Service!
I am excited to announce the availability of tomlany.net T-shirts!! I ordered a custom t-shirt with my tomlany.net logo on it just for fun about a month ago, and have since received a good number of requests to buy similar shirts.
I will be producing bright red shirts with the tomlany.net logo on the front. The back will be blank, to keep the cost low. The picture to the right depicts the initial shirt I ordered. I will be using a different vendor for this project, so they could vary slightly. I plan to request that the logo be printed slightly larger for maximum impact.
T-shirts will cost just $10.50 each, and will only be available for local delivery in Saint Peter, MN, unless we frequently cross paths and arrange something ahead of time (contact me) (no shipping). Orders are due at 11:59 p.m. Friday, April 16, 2010. I will then order the shirts, and let you know when they are ready.
To order your shirt, use the button below. You will be sent to PayPal where you can order and pay with a credit card or PayPal.
Update: T-shirt sales are now closed. Thanks to all who ordered! I will notify you when they are available.
Feel free to contact me or leave a comment if you have any questions.
Don’t pass up this opportunity to own a piece of tomlany.net history! I can’t wait to “see” the “sea” of red!
Update: Check out the promo jingle…
