Last night, my girlfriend and I watched “The Pursuit of Happyness” (IMDB link), a movie starring Will Smith and his 5-year old son Jaden Smith. The movie is about a salesman, Chris Gardner played by Will Smith, struggling to make ends meet. The situation gets so bad that he gets arrested for not paying parking tickets, his wife leaves him, he and his son get evicted - not once, but twice.

Finally, I’m happy with the way the blog looks and works. I don’t know what caught a hold of me, but I dropped everything else to re-do this blog and its design.
Probably the thing that got me really excited was the Simpla theme by Phu Ly. Really simple and elegant, clean code, and I really [...]
