best site for documentation regarding acts_as_authenticaed. Also, currently
it only stores the user_id in the session, but i just found a guide to help
me make it store the entire user object, so I'll do that while my battery

+Handy trick: use the command 'gem_server' from a shell to create a server at
+http://localhost:8008 that is an easy to navigate locally-hosted website with
+all the documentation on local gems you have in a easy to read format.

+jlsharps: I added the Gruff plug-in today, which is viewable under the folder
+vender/plugins/gruff. I installed it directly using the Gruff plug-in and
+included controller generate utility. The version 0.1.2, which doesn't seem to
+be the latest version. I've looked into it and it see and it seems that the
+latest version is 0.2.8. However, I wasn't sure how including a gem w/o a plugin
+would function in end-game rails so I just what I used for now. If you guys
+(mako of john) know how to do it, it'd probably be better to upgrade, but it
+didn't seem like the best use of my time right now. I got the plug-in here:
+http://topfunky.net/svn/plugins/gruff. You can get the gruff gem v 0.2.8 by
+typing "sudo gem install gruff", I believe it's also hosted on RubyForge.
+
+I created the GraphsController for Gruff methods to use. In Pollarize I put them
+in the ApplicationContorller file, so they would be accessible to all. While
+that it also an option here, it would also mean there wouldn't be much room for
+playing around because everything in the Application file has to be perfect or
+it seems to throw Error Code 500 (basically everything breaks). The show()
+is a sample sample provided with Gruff.
+
+Documentation is here:http://gruff.rubyforge.org/ Alternately, if you have the
+gem installed, you can use the ri command, or the above mentioned gem_server.
+
+If you guys want more helpful stuff here, let me know.
