mikedaddy.com

Finished working on LConMan today. It’s working great on my laptop.. Now I can be even lazier!!

So, I was googling for ‘mikedaddy’ and found that almost all mikedaddy references are me! Kinda neat. But also found some sites not relating to me, but linking to my site. Seems there is someone related to the rap industry with the name mikedaddy, who used to own this domain?

Kinda neat.

On other notes, I want a new hat, my Guiness hat doest fit, it’s too small. Other than Lids, where does one get a hat thats nice and doesnt have a sports team on it? I think ill go to the mall or something. It’s almost 3:30pm and I’ve yet to go outside.

Why is it that every single time I cook with Jalepeno’s I end up taking a leak before I wash my hands?? OUCH!

Bloglines | Free, Web-Based News Aggregator

Been using Bloglines for almost a month now. It is pretty simple to use and has all the features one would need in a RSS Aggregator that can be accessed globally. If you read a lot of weblog/news sites, you might check this out.

Been writing an email archiving application for the office here. It stores every message in a MySQL table as follows :

+------------+--------------+------+-----+---------+----------------+
| Field      | Type         | Null | Key | Default | Extra          |
+------------+--------------+------+-----+---------+----------------+
| message_id | int(10)      |      | PRI | NULL    | auto_increment |
| whofrom    | varchar(80)  | YES  |     | NULL    |                |
| subject    | varchar(255) | YES  |     | NULL    |                |
| date       | datetime     | YES  |     | NULL    |                |
| source     | longblob     | YES  |     | NULL    |                |
| msgid      | varchar(255) | YES  |     | NULL    |                |
+------------+--------------+------+-----+---------+----------------+

The “source” field is the message source compressed with Compress::Zlib. Everything is going well, but my main problem is parsing all the damn different types of messages, I’ve got it displaying almost 99% of the messages headers and body, but the hardest part is getting the attachments. I’m using MIME::Parser.. Basically the workflow is:

if ($part->mime_type eq 'text/plain') {
     $body .= $bodyHandle->as_string;
}
else { push @attachments, $bodyHandle;  }

So this will assume if it’s not ‘text/plain’ then we’ll assume it’s an attachment. However, sometimes this doesn’t work.. I dunno, I’m just frustrated, I’m sure ill figure it out soon.. also needa figure out how to make parse the attachment and allow the user to view it.

This is pretty sweet of these young ladies over at OTOFTC
