Who I am:
Hi, I am Charles Siegfried, AKA Quixjote, The Mad Coyote. I run this site and most aspects of it. If you like it and want one of your own... feel free to get ahold of me. Other than that, just sit back and enjoy the site. Thanks: Charles.

Current Events!
Um, Wow. Ok... apparently it has been a while since I updated my calendar. I actually do need to get Terra Sol out here again so that I can go over once again the controlls for landscaping and see what they can do to repair a few sections of the lawn. There are a few sink points from general ground settling.

NEWS!
Ok, so the Yahoo/Microsoft Merge never happened. I am actually glad for this one. Yahoo is still on my shitlist to be quite frank. At the moment I consider them slightly more evil than Microsoft. In other news... my rank with Google appears to have gone down a few points. It appears that someone bought charles-siegfried.com.... for some reason I never thought to actually get that domain. Well, good for them! I guess I will just have to work harder now to actually provide a meaningful service in order to stay in google's graces.
I have given up fighting Yahoo to return my last 9 years of code to me. If someone else wants to fight on my behalf, be my guest. I can only do so much right now and I have enough on my plate finishing moving into my new house. Other sites I need to get back from Yahoo's clutches: freshmeat-tv.com and quixjotes-computers.com ... So Annoying. Yahoo will no longer be synomous with Charles Siegfried. Especially now that they are being bought by Microsoft?!?!
Thanksgiving 2007
Hello everyone! A fast Thanksgiving update for you all. I have been busy with many things. Been doing some third party work aas well as regular work keeping me busy. As things begin to calm down I will be working on getting a whole bunch of pictures to make a web slide show for the house stuff. Found out that the younger Quixjote has been learning Flash recently.. Going to have to leach some knowledge off of him now.
Tuesday, November 6, 2007... Cont. Well, since this is showing that means that my update script is working. I can now update my site from my laptop without having to log directly into the database... keeping my site more secure. Hope you all are having a good day. More updates later.
Tuesday, November 6, 2007 Managed to get the Blog Updater finished for this front page. Hope it works.
Sunday, October 4, 2007 Continued Other things: This style has been up a while. I plan on changing the functionality of the site by July first of 2008. Q2008 will have some definite improvements over Q2007 especially since I will have been working on new code since the Yahoo meltdown.
Sunday, October 4, 2007 Have been working on a new mod for the front page of this site: Current Events. From here you can see what I am currently doing for the next while. At the moment this mod is static so I have to manually update it, but soon I will incorporate a code that will compare what is here with the current date and show only the current date forward, with a history log option.
Wednesday, October 24th, 2007 I have been working for Adobe for 1 year now as of yesterday. It is a blast being able to work with the applications that I personally like using myself. Also, I have updated my site again to include the Contact Me page that has been missing for a while now. I know, it is not coming up fast, but I have recently been busy with relocating the Quixjote Den to it's new location on the other end of town. Trying to pack -> Move -> Unpack -> Reuse boxes.
More news to come later.
Tuesday, September 11, 2007 Well, I tried. I do not think I will be able to recover my data from Yahoo! Webhosting. I am just tired of dealing with them and their tactics. I have a stable system now that I am using as well as solid backups of the site now that I can download a single file for the whole code portion of the site. Right now I am getting about two-three backups a month. I also got the basics done for the donation page for those that like the site and want to contribute to its continued success. The link for it is right under the Home link
Friday, August 3, 2007 Arrrg. Sorry for the downtime people. Yahoo decided that it no longer liked me. My Yahoo account was hacked and some jerk decided that it would be fun to send phishing spam through my email. The funny thing is Yahoo cannot even provide me with an IP address that it came from. Email wars ensue.
Thursday, May 24, 2007 Hey all, Long time no see. I have been around, but just extreemly busy. Between new work, building a house, and revamping my computer business... There has not been a lot of time to work on this site as well. Once things settle down I should be around a little more. Hopefully soon I will finally have some of my photos organized and put up in a show able format! Oh, YEAH!
Wednesday, August 30, 2006 Alright, lets see how this works... I tried putting up the other Bidvertiser affiliate linking again in the footer of this page. On Firefox it should barely show at least so you only click something if it catches your eye. This should allow for more Legitimate Clicks.
Tuesday, August 29, 2006 On Friday, Sept 1, 2006 I will be moving to Newberg, OR. Such exciting news for me. The last few days I have barely been able to think code for work and business. Anyway: I may not be readily available on my sidebar chat for a while, that and Meebo seemed to be having issues as well for a while so I am giving them about another week before I really start using it again.
Monday, August 21, 2006 Pt 2 A couple of quick notes: First of all, all of the database driven portions of my site are still part to fully on the fritzs. If you are not able to connect to nova or mini-me you know why now. Second: I am moving in under two weeks. When I move one of the things that I plan to do is host things like my message board from my own server located at my new residence. Hopefully this will solve some connection issues.
Monday, August 21, 2006 Over the last few days Yahoo has been having issues with the mysql portion of my site, so I am working on converting at least my front page blog to reading from files. Until that time I will make the front page static and manually update. I want my front page to at least stay active will Yahoo makes up their mind on what they are doing.
