This past week was completely bonkers here at GrandmasterB.com Headquarters. I struggled to find time to get some of the new additions launched on the site, along with the daunting task of fixing Cuzoogle.com (BTW…still not fixed). I had been cruising along at quite a clip on Thursday evening when a mysterious flu bug struck the household. My youngest son caught the nasty bugger first, and I had thought it was just something minor…boy was I wrong. That stinking bug went through the rest of the household on Friday and knocked me out of commission all weekend. I spent the weekend camped out on the couch with plenty of fluids and a box of Saltine crackers…it wasn’t a pretty site. I have finally regained consciousness from my sickly zombie-like existence and now I am back to business as usual.

I have been working on some ideas for new posts, but they’re still stuck in my dome so for now you get the Week in Review…

April 21: OIOPublisher Discount Coupon - The fine developers of the OIOPublisher plugin released a discount coupon on Sunday, April 20th that drops the purchase price from $37 to $20. At 37 bucks I thought this plugin was a steal, but you can’t beat the value of $20 with a stick. Get your copy of the plugin before May 5th to take advantage of this great value.

April 22: Ma.tt Has a New Design for Spring! - The amazing Nicolò Volpato has designed another fantastical (yes fantastical is a word…at least I think it is) Wordpress theme for Matt Mullenweg. This new design for Spring was inspired by some pottery that Matt had seen in Spain, Argentina and his parent’s house of all places. It’s a great design…you’ll love it!

April 24: Heads Up Seven Up Blogroll - A little blogroll of some blog posts I found interesting. The title of the blogroll is inspired by the childhood classroom game “Heads Up Seven Up”.

April 24(2): Spring Cleaning - I had to post later in the evening that most of the upgrades I had been planning were complete. I have added some new plugins and advertising to the site. There are a few more additions forthcoming which will be announced in the near future.

April 25: The Madden NFL 09 Cover Athlete Is… - Before the maelstrom of sickness tore through the household I managed to get one post in. Brett Favre will be gracing the cover of the latest edition of Madden NFL Football to be released on August 12, 2008. This marks the first time in the franchises 20 year history that a retired player has graced the cover.

Thanks for tuning into this weeks edition of the Week in Review. Please remember to subscribe to my feed if you’re enjoying the fantastical (there’s that word again) content here on GrandmasterB.com.
