Somehow, while writing the previous post, I completely forgot about the most recent addition to the decorations in my condo (most recent meaning not works in progress). This would of course be Albert the Elephant, baby elephant to be more precise. He sits in the corner of my dining room, holding up a piece of …

Godzilla vs King Kong
I know what you’re thinking. You’re thinking “Godzilla, that’s awesome….but why is it there?” I’ll tell you why, because it is awesome. Ok, it’s a bit more than that, but before I push the image too far down I’ll move to explaining beneath the image, so scroll down! That’s right, down here, there you go. …

Busy busy…
I’ve been told I need more content, plus more women of questionable virtue, and tales from EvilCorp. Sadly I’ve been horribly busy lately and just haven’t had time. I have noticed, strangely, that the spammers seemed to disappear for several days, but then I got hit by 5 or so this morning. I guess we’ll …

Attack of the spammers
You know your blog has hit the bigtime when it starts getting spammed heavily. Actually, it probably just means I’ve hit an inroads with whatever it is that populates the morons database. Luckily WordPress has settings that let you approve comments before they’re posted so I can stay on top of this crap. Unfortunately, it …

Vote for Lando Calrissian
I wish someone had told me Lando was running before I went out to vote today. He even filmed an ad in the DC metro (at least it looks like it to me). If you haven’t voted yet…then you’re probably not on the East Coast….but I’d strongly recommend you vote for Lando. See more funny …

Menu’s continued…some more
So it turns out it was my attempts to make the menu semi-transparent that killed it in IE. I’ve since modified the CSS to get the same effect, and IE ignores the opacity setting there, so now the menu works (as far as I’ve seen up to this point) in both FF and IE…. If …

Menu Problems Continued
So I thought I’d finally gotten the menu working correctly, it looked great in Firefox, it looked great in Opera, and it looked great in IE 7 too. Then I got in to work and tried it out on IE6 and…failure, the same stupid problem with the sub-level menu’s not folding out. I’m sure it’s …

Dropdown menu issues.
I’ve been messing around with the dropdown menu on the site. If you use Firefox (and possibly Opera and Safari) it should work, most of them time. IE, because it’s such a poorly designed browser, is a bit less functional….though I believe I had IE7 working more or less. IE6 is another story. Oh yeah…and …

I don’t write these often enough…
It’s apparently that time again – that time when I realize it’s been a month or more since I last posted to the blog. I realize I use this website for more then just a blog (though not necessarily much more), but since this is the face of it, I really should take the time …

The Ice Cream Truck Man Cometh
I dunno if this is a normal thing in more urban areas, but since I’ve moved into my condo I’ve noticed that ice cream trucks steadily drive through the area during warm weather, harping their wares with musical accompaniment. I suppose there’s a logic too it – there are a lot of condos and apartments …
