The Facelift
If you haven’t noticed the stylistic facelift, you’re blind. Blind as a bat. Blind as a bat with serious glaucoma driving at night. After drinking. I’ll be entertaining comments about the new site, just put in a comment or something down further.
I’m seriously starting to wonder about some people these days — I took off to the Bank, gas station and In-N-Out for lunch, and on the way, I got honked at because I didn’t jump off the starting line fast enough when a light turned green. It was ridiculous. No one should be in such a hurry. There ought to be signs or something about it, that you can stick in the back window of your car — they should say “Freakin’ chill out, man!” or something rasta-ish like that. But then someone would complain that it’s sexist, or culture-ist, or able-ist because it’s printed and blind or illiterate people can’t understand it. Argh. In that vein, I’ve decided to become non-politically correct. Not ‘politically incorrect’, like that Bill Maher putz, because I don’t really have the energy or desire to go out of my way to offend people that are going about their thing. Rather, I’m going to do like generations have before me, such as using ‘him/his’ as a gender-neutral pronoun. Offended? Too bad! It’s my journal and my webpage. The door is over there if you want to leave.
In happier news, I went out with my aunt for Thai food last night, at a little place on North Main Street in Walnut Creek. Apparently, there are two Thai places on neighboring blocks of that street. We went to Plearn Thai. I’m not sure what Plearn means, but it kind of sounds like a command in an artificial intelligence programming language:
plearn {
Data.Lesson (Source, Output);
}
Yeah, that fictional language looks a lot like CSS, doesn’t it? Guess what I’ve been doing all day. Guess what inspired me to change the style of the blog? Yep.
So I’m loving Gmail, the email service offered by internet search giant google.com. It’s still in the beta, or testing phase, and accounts are by invitation only. So I have a few to give out… email me if you’re interested.
And finally, I came across an outstanding site last night that kept me entertained for hours — Rum and Monkey. It’s a satirical news magazine that actually agrees with my weird political views.
