This evening, I installed PHP Accelerator 1.2p3 to the system which results in MUCH faster page serving from this site. Some results of testing the front page are below. 25 Hits of https://drewvogel.com/index.php: BEFORE 1.22 sec/page 49.23 pages/min AFTER 0.60 sec/page 100.33 pages/min As you can see, this small addition […]
Okay, this Linux stuff is kinda flakey. I’m trying to get XWindows (running Ximian GNOME) working when I log in as ROOT, but it doesn’t. It works fine if I log in as another user on the machine, but not as root. Also, my ZIP drive has never worked since […]
Last night, Wendy was planning to leave Mr. Face at the her veterinary hospital instead of bringing him home (she typically takes him in with her in the morning (he’s fed, watered, held, & cared for all day) and brings him home in the evening). But, because she was planning […]

Tonight, I performed a comprehensive system backup of this machine. Essentially a ‘snapshot’ of everything on this machine, I’m in the position of being able to completely restore the machine to today’s state in the case of a catastrophic loss. It’s rather a long process, but thankfully, an automated one, […]
Today, I updated to the newest version (1.91) of Andromeda, our MP3 Jukebox program for registered users. This new version features the following additions: Play everything in a folder including its subfolders (recursive folder playback) Add folders to the playlist Playlist buttons replaced by icons for narrow-window support Chinese (Simplified […]
Just wanted to let everyone know that I will be interviewed on KINDRED SANCTIONS, a Cincinnati-based radio program that airs on WAIF 88.3 FM, on Thursday, February 7, 2002. The subject of the interview will be WHAT IT TAKES TO PLEASE YOU, a tribute to Over The Rhine. The show […]
This is big. I just upgraded my system software (the […]

On Thursday, January 31, 2002, a group of six of us (Holly, Ed, Ted, Tracy, Wendy, and myself) met for the first monthly meeting of the as-yet-unnamed Supper Club… A group of friends who get together to socialize over great food. We ate at The Maisonette to take advantage of […]
The system was down much of today for a MAJOR upgrade. I’ve transferred the server to a bigger, faster box and installed Linux Mandrake 8.1 PowerPack and more than doubled the system’s storage. It didn’t go without hitches, but it’s back up and running! As always, please let me know […]

"WHAT IT TAKES TO PLEASE YOU", a Tribute to Over the Rhine, has been released. Thanks to the hard work of Drew Vogel and … well, JUST Drew Vogel, ALL orders placed prior to 11-Jan-02 at 9:30am for the Tribute CD have been shipped. Every single one. The first copies […]
This project could have been a lunchbox. Or a wax museum. Or sets of limited-edition Grenada-issued commemorative stamps. Linford and Karin holding the Tribute CD during their visit to our radio program. Back in October of 1997, a fan named Joel Smith had jokingly proposed the suggestions above (among others) […]
Today was a pretty big day for Wendy. She’s been complaining about her computer being slow — which it was. So, we talked about it and ended up buying her a PowerSpec 8250 computer — a Pentium 4 with a load of hard drive and memory. It’s a nice change […]
A problem existed on this system for Netscape Navigator users… Many times, users of Netscape Navigator would not be able to display pages on this site due to a difference in the way that Navigator handles the cascading style sheets for the themes on DrewVogel.COM. Today, I fixed at least […]

How were everyone’s holidays? Mine were fantastic… We spent a lot of time with our families and had a great time. On Christmas Eve, we were at my parent’s house for dinner and fellowship. Then, Christmas Day, we were with Wendy’s parents at their house with the extended family. Squeezed […]
I want to wish all the users and visitors to DrewVogel.COM a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year. This has been a big year for me, and I appreciate all the friendships that give me the energy to move forward. I sincerely hope that 2002 is the best […]
I’ve decided to wait to upgrade this system to the latest release of Post-Nuke. The most recent release has not been very smooth, so we will not upgrade this site until some of the rough spots are smoothed out. It is my expectation that installation of the new release will […]
I didn’t know whether to do this or not…but what the heck…my thoughts on this past weekend (now that I have a moment to catch my breath). I must say first of all that, despite how excited I was to do the weekend, I was more than a wee bit […]
In anticipation of upgrading to the newest release (0.701) of PostNuke, our Content Management System, I have made some behind-the-scenes changes to the way that the Main Menu works. Users should notice no functional differences, and will see that there is a new option, Who Is Online, for you to […]
What a great weekend we had here in Cincinnati! This was the weekend of the annual Over The Rhine Christmas show at the Taft Theatre, and there were many festivities that went along with the show. There are Reviews of the show in Reviews and pictures in the Photo Gallery. […]
I like the Green Yellow Swallowtail song more and more. At the SouthGate House show (in September) it seemed very eerie because they had cut their backroads tour short within a week or two because Karin’s mother had a stroke. The line something like “mother’s not dead she is only […]
Another system upgrade caused me to reboot the system today, after 12+ days of uptime. I upgraded the Apache server, the kernel (the core of the operating system), the mail handler and assorted tools, the mail reader, some modules for the new Apache, and a few security fixes to some […]

Linford and Karin holding the Tribute CD during their visit to our radio program. An update on WHAT IT TAKES TO PLEASE YOU, the tribute to Over The Rhine is in order. It’s been some time since we slid past our projected release date of August 31, 2001. Our current […]
This evening, I updated the site with a new version (1.8.3) of Andromeda, the MP3-jukebox. If you haven’t yet check out Andromeda on this site, you really should take a moment to explore Andromeda. It’s very feature-rich, and ours is a particularly nice implementation (if I do say so myself!). […]
Tickets to the annual Over The Rhine Christmas show go on sale Saturday, November 10, 2001 at 10:00am on TicketMaster. The annual Christmas show takes place at the Taft Theatre in Cincinnati, and represents a ‘homecoming’ of sorts for this Cincinnati-based band and their fans. This year’s show will be […]
Another look at what’s going on in Drew’s life… Some new projects and more! Boy oh boy… Was I ever wrong when I predicted that the final coat of paint in the kitchen would be done Thursday or Friday! I painted two coats in the kitchen one day last week […]
I thought I would upgrade the system software today using the tools that were provided by my software manufacturer. Using their tools, I logged into the update site, downloaded about 20 megs of updates (after several false starts because the update system was busy), and applied them. The updates applied […]
I wanted to take a few moments to update you on what’s going on in my life. We’ve moved into our new house and, on Sunday October 28, turned the keys to the condo back in to the management office — we’re totally in the new house and no longer […]
Some major changes have taken place behind the scenes here at DrewVogel.COM. We’ve migrated the system from PHP-Nuke to PostNuke. There might be some small problems here and there, but for the most part, the system is running really well. If you spot anything strange, please let me know! Why […]
Andromeda is now active on this site. From the Other Options menu, select Andromeda to be taken to this customized MP3 jukebox. Once in this area of the site, you will find many local and regional artists represented. Please check out their music, and support them if you like what […]

Since the price of memory is so cheap, I added 256 more megs to my development machine, giving it a total of 512 megs of memory. This machine (running the server) doesn’t need any more memory, but I may throw 256 more megs into it. Eventually, the server system will […]
I added a bunch of new themes to the system today. Registered users can use themes once they’re logged into the system to modify the way the system looks to them. We’ve got about 25 themes to choose from here on DrewVogel.COM! To access them, select Your Account from the […]
Recently added, Andromeda (from the Other Options under the Main Menu bar on the side of the screen) is an MP3 jukebox. I’ve got some of my favorite local and regional artists in there — take a listen if you wish, and support these artists if you can! Share: Print […]

The system will be inaccessible sometime later this week… Probably Friday October 5, 2001, and possibly Thursday October 4 as well. This downtime will allow us to move the physical server from the old location to the new location, get it set up, configured, and back up and running. We […]
Cincinnati’s CityBeat magazine recently did a review of our production of WORKING. The full text of the review, including the specific mention of Drew and Wendy, can be found at www.citybeat.com/2001-09-20/onstage2.shtml. WORKING runs concludes its run this weekend, with two shows: One on Friday, September 28 and closing on Saturday, […]
Wendy and I closed on our house today! We’re now officially HOMEOWNERS. We’ll be moving sometime during the month of October, once we get some painting, carpeting, flooring, and all that done. There will be some system downtime as we transition the server from one location to another, but I […]
Testing… 1… 2… 3… Is this thing on? After almost two freekin’ weeks of being offline, DrewVogel.COM is finally back online! ZoomTown, my ISP, took their sweet time in protecting themselves against the Nimda Worm… Can’t say I blame them for taking precautions, but Sweet Christ… TWO WEEKS? We’re back […]
The system was unexpectedly down for most of the week of 18-September-2001. As it turns out that my service provider was being cautious with the Nimda Worm that’s been taking the country (world?) by storm. Sorry for any trouble it might have caused. All is right now, and I took […]
This is a ‘heads up’ for users of DrewVogel.COM… We will be moving sometime during the month of October to our new house (see the Photo Gallery for more information!). During that time, there will be some downtime for this system as the new lines are run, the server is […]
I am sure you are all aware of the horrific attacks on the World Trade Center and Pentagon on Tuesday, September 11, 2001. The entire team at DrewVogel.com would like to send our sincere condolences to the families of those who perished in these attacks. May you be spared any […]
On 05-September-2001, I added an internal ATAPI ZIP drive to the system. Users won’t notice this addition too much, since it is used mainly for system backups. I also wrote a script that automagically backs up the entire system, including dumping the tables, to the ZIP drive. Share: Print (Opens […]
As some of you might have noticed, DrewVogel.COM was unavailable for several hours (from 3:30pm-11:30pm) on Monday, September 10, 2001. This was due to a power outage at the server location. Sorry for the downtime, folks. The bright side of all this, if there is a bright side, is that […]
