A Friendly Reminder: Do Not Blanch Your Sun-Dried Underwear

Sorry for the fuzzy pic; I am laaaaazzzy and didn't feel like plugging in the scanner.

Special cares

• Do not leave soaking


• Wash separately


• Do not use blanch or soap with blanch


• Do not twist


• Avoid contact with rough superficies


• Dried out of the sun


• Do not iron

This is what happens when you fire all the real journalists

Stylin'

My first CSS-styled web page.

Tip for the Fellahs

"My wife thought it was funny," doesn't mean it isn't sexist crap.

A Wee Rant

Are best practices in accounting a matter of "personal preference?"
How about nursing, or social work?

How about graphic design?

I'm starting to weary of teaching clients, for example, that squeezing a column of text into a too-narrow space with no gutters and too many hyphens and too small a point size isn't a matter of personal taste — there are rules here, and following them gives you one result, and not following them gives you another. Which do you want?

A Wee Puzzle

You have an 8.5" x 11" piece of paper you'd like to cut into four equally sized rectangles. Do you:

A) Divide both 8.5 and 11 by 2 to obtain measurements
B) Fold paper into rectangles, then use ruler to obtain measurements
C) Go over to the paper cutter and eyeball it
D) Interrupt graphic designer to ask if she "remembers"

"physics makes us all its bitches"

Note to Self

If you're having dreams about Facebook, you should probably cut back on the Facebook time.

Here Comes the Sun

Raining today, but it will get here.
