Still Not Having Any Luck

…with finding myself a new CMS to replace the newest oh-so-bloated-and-almost-ripped-at-the-seams Wordpress 2.6. There’s always Chyrp, lightweight indeed but I hate the fact that you have to install some modules to do some basic functions such as cutting your posts with “read more” and having a commenting system. I also wish that it had more extensions.

Then, there’s Textpattern. I’ve tried this before and I’m quite satisfied with it. However, making static pages is quite a hassle and I simply do not have the time at the moment to go through this long process of making article forms link to page templates and making page templates link to sections. *sigh* The preview-before-submitting rule may also be a bit confusing for some visitors.

I could also consider Expression Engine but it’s also too bloated for me and isn’t bloat the thing I was avoiding in the first place?

Any recommendations?

Thursday afternoon, that was when the auditions for Grease took place. A guy who graduated a year ago (and is incredibly hot) enters the room calling one by one those who will audition.

Him: Is Enzo (insert my last name) here?
Me: I…I…I…I…
Him: If you don’t want to audition I could just cross your name out.
Me: *nods like a retard*
