Now I just need to get blogrolling back.

I like the new format of Blogger. more templates :)
I was finally able to get Gentoo installed on my machine at home. It would always choke when I tried to unpack any tarball. So what I did was unpack the stage 3 tarball and the portage tree I had, save that on a loopback filesystem, and copy the files from there when I got home. Now all I have to do is compile the rest of the stuff I want on there, and all's well. Why did the computer choke? Not sure, but I think it's got some hardware issues, and since I really can't buy a machine now, I'll do whatever workaround I need.
