Today I added support for JavaScript tool tips. Go ahead and put your mouse pointer over the words “Tool Tips” in the previous sentence to see them in action! From now on, if you see bolded, dark-red text like this, point at it, without clicking, for the tip (you will need to have a JavaScript enabled browser).
Big news today. My sister Mila and her longtime boyfriend Ed have finally gotten engaged! Congratulations! Check out Ed’s company, Supersphere.
Today I checked the site on my Mac at work and it looks just as good as it does on my PC. I also tested it on some dinosaur browsers and, although the colors and typefaces were wrong, the content still was readable and logical. The only complaint I have gotten thus far has been from John Burgess, who says my pages take too long to load. I suspect his connection was messed up. Oh well.
My new site has finally launched! This is only the beginning. I hope to add more illustrations and goofiness in the upcoming months, stay tuned! Also, I very proud of the fact that these pages validated (scroll to the bottom) for HTML 4.0 and CSS!! Standards rock!
The new site is pretty much in a presentable state. As time goes by I will add more embellishments, but for now at least there are no broken images. I will spend the the next day or so double checking everything and adding any last minute details.
The page is coming along. I have the directory structure set and my main concern now is generating the illustration which will adorn the site.

If you use the ICQ messaging service than you are probably familiar with the junk messages that pop up every once and a while. They are usually of the “Come see naked people” variety, but this one was particularly good. I didn’t reply, not out of fear for my life, but rather, out of fear of my email in-box being overstuffed with unwanted crap.
