I really hate CSS.

I’ve got a nasty style sheet bug. Something about the photos is causing the text in the right-side main column to refuse to flow properly alongside the left side nav bar. Tomorrow I’ll make a whole lot more annoying test posts to see if I can get it to work right.

43 Things poses the question: What do you want to do with your life?
You can keep a list of your goals, or you can choose from a big list of what other people have been answering. Each page shows a continuously-updated display of every one else’s goals. Its a social goal-keeping site.
I’m finding what other people are posting to be completely fascinating. There’s a lot of predictable stuff here; 1006 people want to be happy, 800 people want to get laid and 467 want to stop wasting time. Books seem to rank pretty high on people’s lists; 215 people want to write a novel; 166 people just want to read more books. There’s also plenty of romantic goals (fall in love (556 people), kiss in the rain (220 people), meet the right girl for me (18 people), get him to notice me (11 people)), and self-improvement (lose 10 pounds (126 people) and exercise more (341 people, learn ruby (115 people)).
And then there’s the goals that are more strange, like Amass a mighty army of animals and overthrow mankind (6, uh, mammals?) . And goals I really relate to like leave this site now (2 people) and destroy the person who made this (1 person, not me).
A great way to waste a couple of hours, whether you want to or not.

Seems like a lot of my blogging recently has been extended silences followed by me apologizing for my extended silences and explaining what I’ve been doing instead. So, here I am again doing just that. I’ve been working a lot. But I just finished up that little mini-contract so now I can get back to what’s really important, eg, reading, sleeping in, and yes, blogging.
Yesterday I was busy doing what is only right for thanksgiving, which is of course: eating and drinking until I wanted to die. I went to a potluck with a bunch of friends, and there was much feasting of turkey and stuffing and risotto and potatoes and yams and green beans and wine and wine and more wine. I brought an apple and pumpkin pie for dessert, and there was much rejoicing. I have no leftovers. I am good at pie. It is comforting to know that if this tech writing thing doesn’t work out, I can always sell pie.
I have a whole pile of links and half-written posts I need to catch up on here, so brace yourselves for an onslaught of stuff in the next few days.

The Dolmette, a motorcycle powered by 24 chainsaw engines.
That is fucked up.
