Quote Of The Day

Over at Salon:

I'm really starting to like the idea of Mike Huckabee as the Republican candidate of choice. The Democrats could even run John Kerry again and win this one.


.

Mentioned In Passing

Well, it looks like I haven't been posting much. (You've noticed that? Clever Dick you are!)

Anyways, I should be back after the first of the year BUT with a difference: less politics & current events and more arts & culture. (This is where you all go "YAY!!!")

(As for politics: One of those horrible Democrats will win and one of those even more horrible Republicans will win. One of those horrible people will be our next President (YAY!!!) And Ron Paul is a Nazi (<-Bait).))

Anyways (again) sometimes I'll post a whole bunch a day, somedays not at all. Deal with it.

Oh, and for the design of this place? Five out of five say I should keep the blacky goodness (YAY!!!)

So, um, YAY!!!

(Now go do something useful.)

What Say You?

I've received e-mails and some comments that say that the white text on black background is hard to read.

Consequently, I'm thinking of changing the look of this here place.

So, the few of you who still read this nonsense: Should I make this more readable?
