Which 80’s Teen Idol is Dobbs?
Seriously. Look at the picture and think about it.
Does anyone else think Dobbs looks like Cory Haim?
And Now For Something on the Mechanics…
Since I’m up all night due to work, I distracted myself by following up on a few things I’ve been wanting to do about how this is looks and works.
- Thanks to Justin Blanton for the Smart Archives plug-in. I think they look nice.
- Thanks also to those crazy kids who pulled together the K2 theme for WordPress. I have been tinkering off and on, trying to get what I want out of the default theme and making changes to other themes I’ve seen and downloaded, but I never walk away happy. But I like the new look around here, and I think it will stay awhile. At least until Provisional is released… that one, I dig.
I won’t tell you how long it took me to figure out how to create an unordered, bulleted list. OK, so I didn’t figure it out, I looked it up, so what? The next goal is to change from regular old bulleted lists to fancy ones, as discussed on A List Apart in Taming Lists.
Update: Looks like we made it. At least, if you are using Firefox as your browser. If you use IE, you don’t see the nifty bulleted list above. In fact, it looks a little sloppy to you. Sorry about that.
Don’t Be That Guy
Whenever I see an out-of-shape / overwight someone huffing and puffing in some kind of exercise-type endeavor, admint to a slight mental cringe - How could you let it get so bad? I think. Then I think, Good for you.
On Tuesday, I went for an afternoon run for the first time in a long time. I was very pleased with myself for getting out of the house in the sticky heat, for actually running. Then it hit me.
I’m that guy.
Today, I’m a good 40 pounds overweight. I do not work out as a rule; my eating habits are not best in class. I have a bad haircut. I think its time for a change. I don’t want to be that guy.
