Driving a Mustang Convertible…

My rental car for this week is… A Mustang Convertible! which reminds me a funny story happened a few years back when I was shopping for a new car…

I was shopping for a car at that time, and one of my choices was a Mustang! So I went to the dealership to try it out, and I asked KFC (one of my best friends) to come along. He said (in a very uninterested way), “Yeah sure.” I know he is not a fan of American cars, but I just wanted someone to go with me.  So we walked into the dealership, they had a Mustang Convertible in the showroom.  I looked around, and it is just a little bigger than I expect.  Oh well…  KFC never said a word, until we came out from the dealership…

WebSphere Commerce Translated JSP Java Files Location

If you are looking for the java source codes that are translated by WebSphere from JSPs, here is the location you can find the java files:

WAS_root_dir/temp/server_name/instance_name/instance/your_jsp_path/xxx.java

If the JSP is throwing exception, you should be able to see the exception in SystemOut.log. There you can find the translated java file name. Then you can do a find on that file name root from WAS_root_dir/temp.

ahk2chan Recommend Airline Limousine (Toronto)

I have used a few different taxi and limousine companies, and I can tell you a few horror stories…  Once I have ordered a taxi for 6:15 am, and I waited for about 5 minutes, I called the company.  They told me that there was no such order, even after I gave them the confirmation number!  So too bad, Mom got dressed in 1 minute and drove me off to the airport.  Thanks Mom!  Next…

Snap on ahk2chan – Without WordPress Plugin

Snap is quite an interesting technology… What it does is it creates a mini bubble that shows a preview of the content that you are linking to. I don’t know how they did it though. I tried to look around and see how I can incorporate it in my blog, and of course there are WordPress plugin to help. However what I have done without Plugin is…
