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 suppose there’s a logic too it – there are a lot of condos and apartments …

The Roof is on Fire….
Another day, another building in my condo complex catches fire. First, back in November, or maybe it was early December, my building caught fire. From the news articles it sounded like some dumbass started that one on the 2nd floor, and then instead of trying to call 911 or do anything smart, they tried to …

Condo Pictures
Yeah…I’m really good at writing here…I last posted in October about how I’d have photos, and now I have them! It only took 3 months! Yeah…I guess I still need to work on that. Technically I had the pictures posted in November or December…I just didn’t link to them here…. Pictures I actually should have …

New Condo, New Post
Whoot! So…it’s what, a year and 4 months or so late? It’s not like my hordes of adoring fans bother to read this anyway. They much prefer to send adulation to me in person, by way of mail bombs and the like…. Anyway, I have a new place! Yes, I just bought myself a condo. …

Ring around the Pentagram
Ok, it’s been a while since I last posted…I admit, I’ve lapsed a bit…there were quite a few times when I had things interesting enough to write about, but for some reason I never did get around to it…that is, UNTIL NOW! And by UNTIL NOW, I mean…the second time I worked on this post…since …
