Today I’ve rolled out a new, magazine look, theme closely based on the Visionary theme by Justin Tadlock. I thought this theme was quite good “out of the box” but I decided to modify it some to fit what I wanted to do on OpTempo. I like the concept of having a magazine style theme with excerpts on the front page with teaser photos. I also wan

One of the best movies I saw this year, which I’m sure will be forgotten come Oscar time (and maybe it wasn’t OSCAR good), is finally out on DVD.

It’s called Rescue Dawn and stars Christian Bale as a stranded POW during the Vietnam War. I saw this movie back in July and absolutely loved it. It got a 90% on Rotten Tomatoes, which I really l

Earlier this week I wrote that I’d be taking my Thanksgiving vacation to spend a bit of time tweaking the new theme I had found for this blog and then hopefully releasing it before the end of the weekend.

If you are reading this, the new theme has gone live! I’m so excited about this change for A Mike Life and have spent so much time tryin

Another new theme from Justin Tadlock, who is putting out some really great stuff.

I am using his Visionary theme after some major tweaking and it's been awesome and well-received. He uses custom fields to make some of it work but it really adds some great aspects to the theme for you.

I love the tabbed navigation area on his themes.

Whether it’s to see the world or just spend some time away from your current occupation, a sabbatical can be a great way to recharge the batteries without hurting your career. The millennials have long ago embraced this concept and in this case there’s much to be learned from them. From starting their own businesses to teaching overseas many

Justin is adding more functionality to his new Structure theme:

When I designed the theme, I intentionally placed everything on a three-column grid, so that users could easily move page elements around. I’m calling these elements “content blocks.” My plan was to eventually widgetize much more of the theme, while still offering the theme’s

In the last few days, I found 2 popular post on Blogging Zoom about John Chow. One was written by Justin and the other by Vic. I saw Justin's first and wanted to add a comment but it turned into a post instead like the previous post. While waiting to publish, I read the post by Vic about John Chow. So, I added Vic's argument into the new po

If you're a fan of the Adam Sandler school of comedy, "Strange Wilderness" should be right up your alley.  It seems that a television wildlife show is failing and the incompetents who run it figure the best way to save the show is to find Bigfoot - sounds reasonable.

In case you haven't heard, Justin Timberlake's SuperBowl commercial was leaked to the internet.    It's a Pepsi commercial and it's an attention grabber.  I have to say I enjoyed it a lot more than previous sexist commercials that have been aired.  It's up on the top of the list, with the singing f

As every year, all big companies are trying to have the funniest, most original commercial at the Super Bowl. No wonder, since 150 million people in the states alone watched the super bowl and almost $3 Million cost a commercial of 30 seconds. I have to say, this year was quite lame, some commercials were ok, some were really n
