Prettier With Style Sheets

So, I had originally screwed up the static path. The whole backend interface here was ugly, spartan. From the fact that the text boxes for entering text were like 10 characters wide, I inferred that there were probably style sheets I wasn't getting.

It turns out I was right! And boy is MT prettier with style-sheets! Hurrah!

Python Rocks

Using perl now, I can see why python rocks so hard. I must say that knowing more of the syntax of Perl, rather than blindly trying to guess it, it's not as bad as I previously felt it was, but it's still no Python. Viva el python!

(I actually did write a fairly nontrivial perl script in Junior year of college, but I apparently forgot it all immediately afterwards. Possibly due to being so sleepy.

Puttin On The Ritz!

I can't write the actual lyrics, because that would get me sued. Oh so sued. But I can tell you that I'm listening to a song. Note the title. I'm just not that rich. Can't afford it.

Sidekick r0x0rs

I must say that my new T-Mobile sidekick is quite the pleasant electronic device to use. Take note that I am gratuitously extending the length of this message de plume in order to have a long message as a data point. Perhaps even one with multiple paragraphs.

Yes, yes, multiple paragraphs. Capital idea, just capital. Or is it capitol? It seems more likely to be capital. Of course, I'm no big city lawyer, but it seems like capitol referring to a specific locale as opposed to a more generic term such as capital which suggest this is the case. After all, capital might just be used as a superlative based on its dictionary definition, grown out of use.

So tired. So very, very tired. Why oh why do I set my alarm to go off so long before I actually get up? I have the feeling that probably increases my tired-ness and decreases the benefit derived from sleeping.

Okay, that's pretty good. Four paragraphs! Who would have thought that I, a backwards hick from wherever I am from would some day post a blog entry on this newfangled internet consisting of 4 paragraphs and very few made-up words!

Missing!

If anyone has seen my Depeche Mode "I Feel Loved" single, please let me know, for I cannot seem to find it anywhere! At all! Oh the pain, the pain.
